    Great Show
    Great show, but, do these guys breath? I can’t understand, they speak so fast!

    Gteetings from Waingro
    Terrible take on the Oscars Will Smith moment. That was not a slap, but a pisstake punch by Will"Muhammed Ali "Smith. couldnt knock out Chris Rock. stick with acting Will. Better takes Bill, don't get soft from Spotify $$$$

    Need better commentary
    I usually like Bill’s NBA content and guests but I was disappointed with Seerat Sohi’s comment that Steph Curry is having his best season this year. A google search of his stats shows that is simply not true and it was disappointing Bill didn’t correct her during the show

    More half baked ideas please
    Always a great listen, but bringing back half baked ideas had me laughing out loud. And Vernos cameo was stellar!
  • JumpJC
    The gold standard
    Really good for all US sports. Conversational yet poignant. Why would ESPN let this guy go?

    Long time listener
    Love big willy simmo

    House Pod
    Not sure how much Spotify money Simmons has given to House... but if it’s less than 50% it’s a robbery

    The best
    Love this podcast. Bill and Russillo are awesome but it’s also great listening to Jackie MacMullan. She’s been a huge plus to the show.
  • HELLOALSOYES
    Relentlessly thoughtful
    I love Bill. Who doesn’t love Bill? Sometimes I’ll realise I’m still listening even when they’re talking about like, gridiron. I do not like or care about gridiron, but I still apparently care about what Bill has to say about it sometimes.

    Bill Simmons rocks
    Bill has been the best in the podcasting business for a decade and a half......insights on sport and pop culture are 2nd to none. His episodes with Cousin Sal , Jack O and his father are the best.
  • make sports great again
    Go woke go broke Bill
    Love Bill, but content has become so skewed and political, it’s hard to enjoy. Narratives have clearly become politically motivated, spose that what’s happens when sports are rigged & owned by Ch-yna Say hi to the Jesuits for us Bill!

    Lazy
    Do you even realise how incessantly disgusting your language is? Or is it just a tic that you don’t even notice? Could you clean it up a bit. It’s soul destroying to listen to you swear constantly because you’re too lazy to think of other adjectives.

    More bball
    Bill should be in the Celtics front office

    SWJ BILL
    Washington football team. Time to rename the patriots. It’s problematic Bill. Simmons now a far left anti American podcasts. Wake up bill. Learn to code. Jimmy Kimmel claps and nods that America is racist. Should be ashamed. Everyone leaving California. I wonder why?!?!?
  • tucchhh
    Joke
    Bill is so bias and can’t pay a compliment for the life of him... seriously a joke that you have gone so far up the media ladder.
  • Please leave the rosters alone
    Homer Corner
    Contains a few too many made up stat clubs. The 50/40/90 Club, that’s a thing. The 17 points, five rebounds, two charges, wore a hat on the way into the arena in a leap year club? Go to hell, Bill. 3/5
  • beakertheassistant
    Jemele hill. Smh
    Bill having jemele hill as a podcaster on his ringer network shows what he really is. Sad but true. Cash ur check bill as Spotify will have second thoughts now.
  • Adschan6
    Forget the haters Bill
    F the haters Bill, you aren’t wrong - it’s why you went from being a writer to owning the Ringer. Haters just gotta hate cos it’s on trend. It’s absolute bull what they are trying to pin on you. Says me - a young left wing POC from a working class family
  • woodland90
    Is this still a sports podcast?
    Too much political content creeping in to this podcast...sorry Bill but your podcast is supposed to be an escape from the dreary news we’ve been accustomed to listening to on mainstream radio or tv. You’re slowly becoming apart of it!

    Australian Fan
    Have been listening to this pod from Australia for 6 months now. As far as sports talk goes Bill and Ryen bouncing off of each other is the top of the heap. I’ve been an Aussie rules fan all my life, however have found a liking to NFL football thanks to this podcast. Just need to develop a better understanding of the game.

    All the redraftables please. At least up to 2014.

    Yes we want more Redraftables!
  • Given to Mick
    Pearl Jam episode tops
    I’m only new to the pod but love it even though I’m an Aussie. The PJ one with Wd and Jeff was great. Given the sport break I would love another one with the guys from PJ but a deeper dive into stories and meaning behind some of their songs. Not enough to give it all away and they mean different things to people but an insight would be epic!!!
  • Jude AUS
    My fav podcast!
    Love the NBA insights, love the giggles and brilliant content. They make it seem easy being entertaining for two hours. Top 1% at what they do. Gym Corner: Ryan when someone asks you to spot them reply ‘fear is the best spotter buddy’...
  • Gdmclean
    Mixed review
    Have enjoyed listening to the content they talk about all season. But as soon as COVID19 stopped the NBA the podcast turned into a Trump bashing platform and blame asigning left-wing mouthpiece. Just remember guys, that the majority of your listeners voted in Trump. Not wise to alienate them.
  • The__Tinman

  • Brookie Matt
    My favourite pod!
    Whether the topics are Basketball, Football, music, movies (pop culture in general) tech, politics etc. Bill is across it. He is entertaining and surrounded himself with an amazing team. Any rewatchables episode with Shea Serrano is a winner!
  • Bis78

    Question
    Why does Bill hate Lin Manuel Miranda?
  • Benny_Benny
    I agree with you.
    Quote Joe House 2019.

    The Ringer Rules!
    Love the pod. Absolutely hilarious and the Ringer is the greatest website. One question, when are you picking up the Starters/the Free Agents!
  • Aussie Celts Fan
    Favourite POD
    These guys have an awesome chemistry, which can’t be faked. Both are tapped into the NBA and deliver their content and opinions in a super entertaining way. Keep up the great work.
