Drop Kaycee and big ev
Show would be perfect without them instead of below average with them

Brandon

Remove Blutman
Blutman is such a ball knower it’s great, but his personality and “I know everything” defeatist, college football is dead takes are so unbearable. He legitimately throws tantrums every week and ruins the flow and vibe of the podcast. Get him training in the offseason how to be a normal podcast host without whining every two minutes over most topic and saying everyone else knows nothing. Everyone else great.

Why is T Bob employed ?
TBob is weird and horny and impossible to listen to. Blutman is the only good part of the show .

Just not a fun listen
I’m not an avid Barstool listener, but I enjoy some of their content and was looking for a podcast with a more “entertaining” take on CFB (most of the CFB-focused podcasts I’ve listened to are very dry) so I tried out a few of these episodes. First, I’ll say I can appreciate the passion some of these folks have - Blutman and T-Bob seem to genuinely care about the macro-CFB environment and I respect that. The praise ends there though - I don’t know that I’ve ever listened to a podcast with less chemistry. In the few weeks of episodes I’ve listened to I’ve heard Brandon and Kayce allude to working together for a while - this genuinely shocks me based on the way they constantly yell at and over one another, bicker and disrupt the flow of the show. I don’t find 45 minutes of screaming at one another over two SEC schools very enjoyable or entertaining - the episode after the MS State-Texas A&M game was the worst of it. Maybe this dynamic is more enjoyable if you you’re an avid Barstool follower? The other guys are fine, but ultimately I feel like they’re bolted onto a dysfunctional core with the current Kayce-Brandon dynamic. I also feel like none of the other guys have a chance to make an impression given how many people are on the show. Finally, it feels like there’s no prep at all for some of these shows - even 15 minutes of coordination prior to recording feels like it would pay major dividends here (all having different games to talk about, having stats ready, etc). TLDR: It seems like of these people are passionate about the sport at a macro-level, but ultimately bad chemistry, too many cooks in the kitchen and a lack of prep make this podcast (in its current state) not a great time.

I'm out...
unfollowed podcasts with the addition of the 'non stop talker' to now include this one...can't take the AM sports radio schtick...the whole reason NO ONE listens to AM radio sports talk and went to podcasts is because of 'try harders' like t-blobs endless blabbering! 0/5

Not worth the time
A southern curmudgeon, an alcoholic pervert, and a mumble-mouthed freak spit their worst takes about college football

Boy, does Jack Mac make this impossible to listen to
Gonna have to lay him off tomorrow

Get Kayce Off This Show
I enjoy this pod aside from Kayce. She’s always been pretty bad but so far this season she can’t let anyone else get a word in without her talking over them. She cannot shut up. She needs to go.
Phinsup
Good, but needs to get the chemistry right
Updating a previous review that I wrote after Big Ev and LB joined the show (LB 👍 Big Ev 👎). Adding a fifth co-host doesn’t help what’s already a chaotic podcast- it feels like LB barely gets to speak and Brandon and T-Bob are fighting to control the show. Big Ev still adds little or no value- either dump him or T-Bob. I rarely make it through an hour, as the shouting over each other and Big Ev trying to take the mic from T-Bob or vice versa is unbearable. It’s now my “if I have time CFB podcast”, behind Andy and Ari and Cover 3. Do your fans a favor and slim down for next season.

T-Bob is the worst
T-Bob has ruined another great barstool podcast. I just don't get the appeal at all. All he does is yell and make junior high jokes. Very little substance when it comes to actual college football, and is often unprepared. The live show was another level of cringe.

Swearing incessantly=low intelligence
Somehow Brandon knows the right time to drop an f bomb but Kayce and T Bob are two mental little people. Oh and T Bob, you’re not smart, you’re just trying to throw out stupid facts as a facade to cover your ignorance. Then again, if I was named T Bob, I’d probably try to overcompensate too….but it’s clear he’s no Einstein.

Kayce and T Bob Gotta Go
Show is ruined by the two drunks Kayce and T Bob. If they had the mental ability to have shame, these “parents” would be ashamed for how uncomfortably drunk they get. It was obscene when Kayce called Catholicism a cult a couple years ago (rich coming from the Hillsong Homewrecker herself) but, T Bob’s repeated attacks on Catholics is just more bigotry from the shameful drunks. Internet is forever, enjoy some embarrassing conversations with your children about addiction and degrading yourself for money.

Fire Drunk T-Bob
I liked this show and actually liked T-Bob up until the live show at COSM. He ruined the show by being drunk and you could tell he was making everyone else uncomfortable. I’m not listening until T-Bob is off the show.

Almost unlistenable
I’m looking for a good college football show. Listened to an episode done right after Mississippi State beat Arizona State, Nothing but potty mouth on the show. They sit there and scream the F word at each other at the top of their lungs. Potty mouth is the tool of the lazy. When you don’t have any real insights, you just scream obscenities at each other.

T-Bob is the BEST!
Only started watching because of T-bob. Cajun cannon jr. knows his stuff. Didn’t care about barstool until he joined. 10/10.

POD for retards
Who are these losers constantly yelling and swearing?

Too many people talking over each other. TBob never shuts up.

Quality
Insufferable babble from the start. Burn the entire concept down past the studs and consider quitting the entire industry.

Kayce
Kayce talk too much. More hosting. Less analysis.
Chazyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Audio
Audio issues literally every week. This week if I only had one pod in I could only hear Smith. Be better
Degen4Lyfe
Decent football opinion - Poor audio
The show would be a 4 star but the audio is a consistent issue. From a content perspective, the information is good and people are knowledgeable. The only thing that is annoying is Brandon thinks he is a wrestling character sometimes and is annoying.

Kayce!
Kayce and T Bob are so good that it drowns out how bad Brandon and Ev are.
B-Ritt Brad Ritt
Assignment for Brandon
Brandon has to say 1 positive thing about each West Coast Power 4 football school or this rating goes down to 1 star.

Not having timestamps in the description will be the death of this pod

Still good but…
Kayce makes this show unbearable. Somehow I make it through every week because the rest of the crew is good.

Audio
This would be 5 stars if it wasn’t for the audio. Absolutely love the pod but you need to get the audio quality figured out. Brandon gets excited and you can’t hear what he’s saying due to the audio quality.

Dollar Store Microphone
For everything holy in this world, someone please take a little bit of the ad money and buy Brandon a decent microphone so it doesn’t sound like I’m listening to him in a McDonald’s drive through asking if I want a hot apple pie. Either that or take some of the ad money and pay a sound engineer or editor to fix Brandon’s levels.
ACC.StokesandTeam
Love the pod, but it sounds like you all are on a phone call
Fix the sound

Good lord how do y’all still screw up Brandon’s audio? Get it together.

A show with Liam Blutman will never get more than 3 stars
The most annoying “media” member I think I’ve ever listened to. Bring back jacmac and this would easily go to 5 stars

Too many ads
I love this pod but the ads are unrelenting lately.. I feel like it’s half ads half college football

I’ve never seen more ads
I love this podcast and I have listened to it for going on like three or four years now and thoroughly enjoy it, but I do have to say I feel like I have never seen more ads in a 50 minute podcast in my life… I’m sure they gotta do what they gotta do but like it honestly makes it kind of unwatchable

New KC less enjoyable
KC has a place at Barstool but it’s not on this podcast. Screaming Bwalk and Liam takes as a follow up is just a bit much. Ev… idk what to say. Yal fed up by not bringing in Big T. Ev, he just has nothing to give except cuss words and AM radio takes. Bwalk, Big T, MMM, and will comp would be a good crew.
BWalkFamly1
More ads
Needs more ads I think. 20+ in an hour episode isn’t near enough. It almost gets to a point where they go through an entire topic start to finish without an ad. Unacceptable.
I’m A Bot Forreal
Brandon Walker is the worst
Title says it all, but this guy talks about college football like his takes are the end all be all. Guy never played a down of football, has no clue what he's talking about half the time. Also blocks anyone who disagrees or doesn't sugg him off. Hope he actually quits this spring, tired of hearing him cry about how mean Dave is.

Too Many Ads
I used to always listen to this show but they have way too many ads. It’s feels like every 5-7 minutes which makes the show too choppy.

This show would be better without Kayce
Get rid of Kayce and this show is 4.5 maybe even 5 stars. To her a team with more than 1 loss is awful, she meat rides every top team and has no good takes whatsoever. Liam and Brandon know the most ball out of the group and are usually pretty spot on with their takes. Ev is just a homer nothing bad to say about him tho. But man this show would be so much better without a woman who knows NOTHING about college football

Friends but Oil and Water
So I’ve listened for years, the change to Liam and Ev was huge but there’s something missing/off and I think I’ve got it after this weeks episode: Kayce and Brandon don’t do well together. Kayce as the lead by herself and Brandon as the lead by himself make the show so much better. Maybe it’s when they’re together or in a group of 4 but having them not talking over each other makes the show so much better. If creators read this I hope you can consider this information :)

I like the show but…
They just have wayyyyy too many commercials. I get it they have to pay bills, but they put ads in literally every 5 minutes. It’s getting way out of hand. And also, Brandon is annoying lately, I don’t know exactly why. It’s almost like he got an adderall prescription or something.

Need to change host
Gina so down hill so c Katie stats and Jack Mac left.

Big Ev is destroying this show
This show recently changed hosted. They brought in Big Ev. Respectfully, this guy needs to work on his analysis. He’s a homer, which is fine, but forgets that we have OSU focused shows for this. It’s wrecking the show. Which is unfortunate. Because the rest of the hosts are alright.
JHsWholeMilk
Not professional quality
This pod insults its viewers with commercials often slapped into the show mid-sentence. Come on guys, take five minutes and make an attempt at editing. The commercial grab is too much. Kayce does not know anything about college football. I honestly don’t get her appeal at all. She clearly doesn’t prepare for the pods. Her takes are embarrassing.

Keep up the good vibes
I enjoy the show’s hosts. I laugh, smile and sometimes I disagree. Their voices are easy to hear..Keep up the good vibes. I can find articles online, if I need more. I listen to podcasts to be entertained and this show hits the mark.
The GreyHost
Stick to a take.
Two weeks ago KC said UGA was scary across the board and head and shoulders above the field. This week she said she has concerns about UGAs weapons and doesn’t know if they have what it takes to run the board… what lol? She mostly interrupts people so it doesn’t seem like she is repeating what Brandon says. Brandons fine. Ev better than I thought he’d be. Blut butt is smart, but he eats scoops of peanut butter before he speaks so it can be hard to understand him. Need Brandon to stop betting on Florida bc he keeps mushing them.

Overreaction Merchants
Good show. But they are big time overreaction merchants.

Brian Kelly
It is horrible to say Brian Kelly killed a kid the way you guys did. Make all the hot takes you want cause that’s about all you guys do but that is genuinely a terrible thing to say.
