If you want bros broin’ down who can’t believe how funny they are, dude, then bro down with these bro, dude.

Losers
These guys are why no one respects the ringer. A bunch of losers who know basically nothing, trashing guys all pros, all time great coaches and other people who have forgotten more about football than these guys will ever know.

The most bizzarly immersive draft/fantasy experience
Come to hear about the draft and fantasy football… stay because you feel like you’re sitting around a case of beer with your buddies spewing tangential nonsense about sports and other topics. This podcast is a truly bizarre experience and has the power to put me in the headspace of drunken football arguments with friends whilst my body is sitting in the office on a Tuesday at 10 am. 10/10 would recommend

Awful, awful pod
You deserve a better podcast than this.
Palchez
A great show
Like sitting in on a football conversation with your friends. Insights, comedy, just a good hang.

Funniest of the fantasy pods
Don’t let it get to your heads! And the addition of The Brain Ben has really boosted things. Keep it up. 🤌🤌🤌

Insightful and Entertaining
If you don't like this show, I'd give you a 1 star review in life.

Come for football. Stay for banter.

Can’t find a better Fantasy podcast
It’s everything you want. Real fantasy advice that is relevant and current. With just enough nonsense to keep you listening. I listen the second I see it in my feed. Love these guys

Reference City
Why does a reference always need to be made. They’re never clever.
SillBimmons
Not as clever as they think they are
We want draft info. Too much side conversations that nobody cares about.

Thumbs down
This show is a mess. DK laughs at everything, which is ironic since nothing funny is ever said. He should consider spending his efforts on having better opinions Heifetz is pedantic jerk who wastes the majority of each episode on complete idiocy. Dude can barely get a complete sentence out. How do you expect him to host a podcast? And Craig loves the smell of his own farts.
Not Tom Selleck
So much time, so little draft
Three weeks until the draft, and they spend twenty minutes of an hour show on raw milk and hygiene habits. During March there were THREE free agency episodes. The River has an NFL show. The draft show should probably be able to fill their time on the draft. Unbelievably unfocused.

Entertaining
Listener of like a year and a half. Can’t deny the entertainment the guys provide, there’s pretty much no sports podcast that is actually funny so their attempt is better than most. I just could do without the Heifitz religion bashing. Keep your self righteous views to yourself man

It’s Always Sunny in Fantasy Football
I’m sure this has been said many times before, but this podcast is like It’s Always Sunny meets fantasy football. Incredibly entertaining.

This podcast seems like an accident

Vibes on 1000%
One of the most cohesive fun and informative sports podcasts on earth !!!!!
225All-Star
Excellent.
3 years in. Good for vibes and pronunciation of words - one of the best sports podcasts out there.
DutchmanEGR
Good show could be great…
Sure, a heel can improve a three host dynamic by creating a little conflict, but Heifitz ain’t it. I swear he’s a sleeper cell spitefully planted by espn to ruin a Bill Simmons property. Actively grinds fun moments to a halt.

Pod Killer
More Solak is never the answer. Stop ruining pods I like(d) with him.

Love the show
Great show guys. Love the vibes, the banter is solid, I won my fantasy league…good stuff.
negan
Great analysis and rapport
Just a great show. Love listening to DK, Heifetz, and Craig. And they are on top of fantasy football and the draft.
RunningEthan251
Great show besides Heifetz
This show is fantastic and funny. I love Craig even though he’s a SDSU fan and Danny is fantastic. I also love when they add Solak that dude has great insight. The only problem is Heifetz. These guys can have a great conversation going and that dude interjects some point that doesn’t even go with the conversation. He’s like in Talledega Nights when they say, “All the good things that she just said, you just ruined”. Otherwise great pod.

Not only best Fantasy Football pod, best Football Pod Period
This iteration of The Ringer’s fantasy football podcast is the best yet. The chemistry and banter between the Danny’s and Craig is flawless and hilarious. Changes to NFL draft pod after fantasy season is over and quality remains. Has become my favorite podcast;?don’t disrespect Tom Tom…
Smosh1973
Craig
Huge fan but Craig is such an annoying smug clown. Everything is a warriors reference. Guy thinks he’s ways funnier than he is.

The funniest show on The Ringer 🤣
…and that’s saying something. Podcasts became “a thing,” partly because lots of stand-up comedians jumped into podcasting early, and (apparently) people need a laugh. The guys in this show don’t do ‘bits’; they just talk like old friends. And when they go off on tangents that have nothing to do with football, they are laugh-out-loud hilarious. Plus for someone like me…who’s been watching football for decades — but who doesn’t play fantasy, and isn’t familiar with analytics or next-gen stats — the show really adds to my understanding & enjoyment of the NFL. Whether they did it on purpose, or it happened ‘organically’…I bet I speak for others, when I say we look forward to hearing the opening, “WELCOME to the fantasy FOOTBALL show…” at the beginning, and then “Thank you LORD!!” at the end. (Until recently, I assumed your producer’s name was ‘Lauren’, and Heifetz was giving her a shout-out at the end of every show 😂) Five out of five stars — all day, every day…including the draft, and the entire offseason.

Extremely Entertaining (Even Post-Week 18)
By far the most fun and entertaining fantasy football podcast. Moreover, they’ve continued to put out fantastic episodes even after the end of the regular NFL. The Memento tattoo and Fantasy Rewatchables episodes are instant classics. Keep up the great work.

A Unique Fantasy Audio Experience
If you take fantasy football too seriously leave now. This isn’t for you. This is about fun & laughs as we all struggle & rack our brains to figure out lineups and matchups and how to ultimately win our leagues in the convoluted and not entirely logical game we call fantasy football. These guys take a unique approach to topics, add in other random facts and interesting trivia, and they think outside the box when it comes to fantasy. (A little galaxy brain never hurt nobody!) I listen to every episode, and I even listened during seasons I wasn’t playing fantasy football because these guys are so hilarious, light hearted & entertaining. It was my favorite sports pod to look forward to. I’ve been watching since the “Dantasy days” & I still miss Heifitz’s intro hyping up DK as the “Dark Knight…DANNY KELLLAYY!!!” Despite the complaints lol 😢 so I’ve been listening for years. They make a real effort to connect with listeners and read emails. Fantasy Court is pure gold as a segment & I love the “SHOWDOWN TIME” waiver wire eps. It’s even better now that there is continued coverage extending past the fantasy season & I love the NFL draft coverage from their brains with a little Ben Solak mixed in. You can’t take everything they say as law obviously, but their unique takes and brains could have you competing in your league at a different level. I always knew players but I wasn’t up to date on news and roster changes until I started listening. Since then, I haven’t been making donations to my fantasy league, I’m starting to actually win money. Now stop reading, start listening, & enjoy! *This is not a paid ad but if either of the Danny’s, Craig, Solak, or Bill Simmons see this and would like to reach out…I accept Apple Pay, cash app, or Zelle.*

Doesn’t hold up
What started as great chemistry and excellent insight as devolved into the loudest and lamest just for a quick laugh.

Who needs fantasy?
I haven’t played fantasy football in years, but listen to every episode of this as soon as it shows up in my library because it is consistently the funniest thing out there.

Doesn’t hold up
I really enjoyed this for a couple of months. Solid entertainment value, and some mostly reasonable analysis. I’ve unfollowed the show because Danny and DK are unwilling to admit any bad takes. Craig, to his credit, does a good job at reevaluating when presented with new information. C’mon guys, it’s okay to be wrong. We all are. Just take your licks and move on instead of trying to find any reason to justify why you’re right. The reason you have this job in the first place is because it’s hard to be right. Anyway, thanks for the listen for the last couple months. You guys have solid chemistry, but just need to tweak some things if you want staying power.

Awful and annoying forced laughter...
…at every "joke" by whomever it is — sounds like they smoked 8 packs of Camels right before showtime — it's completely grating and takes me right out of wanting to listen further. Unsubsribed.

Most Entertaining Podcast
Literally my first review on any pod. Love the show. I don’t find them being smug, it’s genuine. They work through thoughts and ideas in real-time. It’s hilarious and sincere. Their mix of personalities and opinions is perfect. This show is super entertaining to me and I look forward to every episode’s RANDOMNESS. LOVE it: Cloyce Box FTW

The Funniest Football Podcast Out There
I could listen to these guys talk about anything and be entertained. If you want all stats all the time this is not your pod. If you want funny as can be conversations with some football sprinkled in, this is it!
PasadenaDave
Best Fantasy show by a mile
Love this show, listen to every episode. The guys are hilarious and the content is useful and helpful. Long live Volney
shiiiiiiiiiiit
ok. why the fake laughter
is there a may go mute danny kelly’s uncontrollable fake laughter
Johnp22386
mixed bag
great content schedule and ways to make each show interesting and unique in its presentation. solid mix of personalities and generally an easy listen. i ignore all show email segments, low effort and not in the slightest way interesting. could use less laughing from dk ngl. literally never laughed out loud at this show because it’s not very funny if at all so i’m not sure why dude is losing his mind every episode. definitely a show for more casuals, as there is little actual in depth football talk. these guys clearly just watch the ball on every play but that’s okay simmons does too and i like his content.

Tart
Five stars both cause it’s a great podcast and also because this many people that don’t know what the word “tart” means need all the help they can get.
BroganSpeed
Good vibes
I love Danny Kelly’s laugh. I need to stand up for it. You guys are hilarious, especially your complete ignorance in basic pronunciation and common knowledge facts. That’s not sarcasm. It’s entertaining. When you actually do talk football, it’s informative but more lighthearted than most football pods. You keep doing you.
MShelkow
No more
Danny’s constant cackling at every utterance of Craig is beyond annoying. Get off Craig’s junk and stop def jam laughing at every word he says. Dude ain’t funny and you aren’t entertaining enough to make me keep listening through the annoying jackass laughs. Unsubscribed.
Sunshine is my name
DK Laughing
DK has got to stop cackling at everything Craig says. It’s pretty weird and nothing Craig says is that funny.
kdub35357
Good show, needs improvement
No offense to Danny Kelly. Clearly he’s done enough to deserve a position as an analyst, but it has to just be writing. He drags this show down completely. I’ll continue listening when it’s just Craig and Heifitz.

This is your home league
This cast is the perfect encapsulation of your home league. DK is the guy that's waaay too into it. He's the perennial contender & has won the last 5/7 seasons. You can't figure out how he's so good until you hear him talk, where it becomes abundantly clear he spends Saturdays pouring over spreadsheets reviewing EPA/play & Yards/route-run instead of going outside to touch grass. While he is the defending champion, the irony is the majority of his winnings are spent on countless subscriptions to sites like ETR, FantasyPoints, PFF, ShipChasing.... Heifetz is your wholesome, hometown football team fan. His fondest childhood memories all take place at the Meadowlands & he proudly wore an Eli Manning jersey to high school pictures. He loves the idea of fantasy football but the advanced analytics are just a bit out of reach. He spirals on weekly start/sit decisions & routinely galaxy brains himself into previous spike week WRs or washed up, name brand RBs. Craig, you're not sure has ever watched a football game. He's involved because he's your basic 20-something and fantasy football leagues are just what friend groups do. His interests clearly lie elsewhere in mindless pop culture, which is evidenced by his only participation being in narrative street segments. Even then, he's liable to steer the conversation down a rabbit hole of reality television or rom-com analogies. This trio is really quite beautiful. Not sure if it's a bit or authentic, but either way it's pure entertainment. Kudos.

Would listen to this even if I didn’t play fantasy
These guys are so funny and entertaining that you could not play fantasy and enjoy this pod!
tvills
Might be over it
I find myself saying every episodes for the love of god get back to football. More jokes then content.

This is not a fantasy football podcast
Give fantasy football advice stop going off on other topics. The fake laughing guy calm down man nothing is that funny especially on this podcast.

Little to no actual fantasy information.
Movemass
I don’t get it…
What are they all constantly laughing at? I have yet to hear anything remotely funny on this podcast. I love almost all of the ringer podcasts, but this is unbearable. I would have expected Bill Simmons to cut this by now. It’s not useful for fantasy football and it not remotely entertaining. They should rename this “Unlistenable”
Wildgoose23
By far
The greatest fantasy football podcast. No other fantasy podcasts make me laugh like these guys do. Comedy gold
