    Sound is awful
    Fellas do better I turned Sheehan on after your pod. Almost blew my car speakers,
  • jbjbr75
    Funny and Passionate Sports Commentary
    JP and The Big Man can always be counted on to provide humorous and passionate commentary of the DC sports scene.
  • aye oh.
    #2 on my go to list (Sheehan is #1)
    Good content. Entertaining. Snarky puppy talk is hilarious and Pete is pretty funny (although sometimes pathetic).
  • kaschweb5
    Entertaining show
    Always a great show and I love that the pod covers post game almost immediately afterwards. Great game analysis, love the what makes you smile segment, and the chips segment as well.
  • NFL field goal kicker 999
    Great post game
    I looked for this every post game for the commanders games… Excellent review and summary, great analysis by Mitch and JP
  • Blake Livingston Hodges
    A beacon in the night
    I’m a 30-year-old Redskins/football team/commanders fan and it hasn’t been easy. I’ve been told by my father of the days of old when we played well, but I’ve never seen us get even close to that. Having this podcast and these dudes to commiserate the misery after each game is quickly becoming one of the top tier parts of being a commanders fan. Everything else might be falling apart but at least we got good post game hangs!
  • KC Easy Rider 63
    Excellent Podcast
    These guys are very knowledgeable. They clearly love the team, but never hesitate to criticize them when necessary, which unfortunately is quite often. So if you want passionate, yet reasonable analysis of the Commanders this is the podcast.
  • DC21987656789
    Used to love it
    Show used to be better. Gotten away from covering the football and just spend way too much time analyzing what/why everything Ron Rivera says. Guess what - he is just a football coach. Most people don’t expect everything he says to be that important. I think this is media hangover from covering Snyder. Cover football and you get more stars than covering press conferences……. JP… stop telling us how busy you are and how you gotta go. Kinda unbecoming since we know you could edit out those comments so just sounds like you want to sound important.
  • Ali boooomaye
    Petey boy is missed
    Didn’t think would have said this but Pete is missed.. the show is average at best now.
  • Capitol Hill Electric
    Big man and JP
    Great insight to our favorite team
  • Suburban_Mac
    Love the hosts, hate the audio
    I love these guys, it’s painful to give them less than 5 stars, but the reality is the podcast audio is atrocious. If you want to listen to a podcast that sounds like a bad cell phone connection from 2002, or a crappy zoom meeting at work, this is the pod for you. Guys, please, take some time to record the pod with consistent audio.
  • Sam_18B
    Big fan
    I’m 22 and I’ve been listening for like 2 years straight. Can’t miss a pod. These gentlemen keep me interested in an awful football team. HTTB&G
  • ross_gore
    Used to be a lot better
    They desperately miss Pete. All the shows are rushed and a lot less authentic than they were before September 2023. Won’t keep listening through the season if it stays this way since their is better stuff out there. Didn’t use to be this way.
  • Gkbean001
    Rushing pods
    I understand you guys have a lot going on and Pete is gone… but idk why you say things like let’s do this quickly… why are you rushing? Under 30 min pod … meh. I still love ya but dang.
  • Evan23Newton
    With a BIG caveat…
    Listened for over 6 years. The show used to be two to three times a week during the season. Now, there’s a sanitized, shorter, made-for-TV preview show and post-game pod. I listen to the show for the authentic conversation and people, not top-button Mitch and reporter JP. We got pods more frequently during training camp than when they’re playing the actual games. Would have loved to hear from the guys Mon/Tues after each game to get the pulse of the fans & team, like we used to. Instead, we just get a rushed preview show late in the week. I understand their situation has changed greatly but it doesn’t feel like they’re doing anything new, and are just hoping listeners will stick it out. And if they’re limited by external factors, they haven’t told us - so I don’t know if I should expect it to get better either. Get another co-host, add more shows, just do something - I’m at a crossroads as a long time listener.

    Great podcast, please improve audio quality
    This has been a great, scrappy podcast since it launched and I love the in-the-moment game recaps and reactions to major events with the franchise (e.g the fall of Snyder). It would be five stars if they paid any attention to audio quality. JP driving through tunnels doesn’t make for great listening. A little effort to record episodes with stable internet would go a long way for this pod to take the next step. Keep up the great work guys! MoCo represent!
  • Beltway Pod review

  • LLKENJ
    If you have to be in the phone why do it?
    It sounds horrible when you are on the phone. Just a terrible listening experience.
  • Benjamin Dearing
    Long time fan first time reviewer!
    My first memory in life is sitting on my Grandads lap, smell of cheap beer and him cheering for the Redskins!!! These boys give you everything you need to know about the former Redskins, Washington Football Team, and Commanders and hopefully Redwolfs!!! I am a Travel nurse and have been all over the US and especially during Covid listen to the boys made me feel like I was home. Mitch love the big man talk.

  • TLow820
    The Best Washington Football Pod!
    JP and Mitch bring the perfect combination real team news and humor. You can tell that it’s not just their jobs but that they love this team just as much as we all love it. When you listen you feel like you are hang out with buds talking Commanders! If you made it this far you owe me a beer.
  • Mikey 95
    Great Podcast

  • BDDFC05
    My fave
    I love the pod! JP, Mitch, & gang bring the realest Skins news and updates packed with awesome interviews. I love the personal aspects mixed in…I feel like I’ve gotten to know you guys over the years.
  • Jojodilio
    Great show about Washington football
    I don’t live in the area anymore but I still love DC sports. This show keeps me informed and I find the hosts takes are often spot on. Shout out to JP, Mitch and Pete. If I ever move back to the area, I know to go to Ourisman Automotive for my next vehicle. Update: we miss Pete already, but good luck in the Golf world!
  • biceps for daze
    WE WANT BOURBAN!!!!!

    Better Now
    I have always enjoyed JP, Mitch, and Pete’s pods. Better now with two voices. Better flow of insights without the silly stuff.
  • dans105
    Beat overall DC football podcast
    Best podcast for Commanders/Skins info, news, analysis, etc. Great job boys!
  • abcdand
    It is even better sans Pete…
    You guys are more on top of it and more serious/informative with 2. It’s what’s been missing post Tandler. Logic/reason- above all. And Mitch has ditched the stubborn irrational points and nonsensical bullishness it seems. It make the podcast really worthwhile and even better than before.
  • b Rad Morris
    Good.
    Idc what ya call it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
  • Scott Pohlenz
    The Best Skins Pod!

  • noirodd
    Great podcast
    JP owes me like 100 beers.
  • Jobusta
    Continually Exceptional
    Nobody keeps fans up-to-date and in-the-know like JP and Mitch! Always happy to hear from y’all and any guests; from the thoughtful insight to the hilarious schtick there’s nothing worth skipping when these pods come out!
  • Ahelveston93
    The Pod with the latest and greatest news and opinions on the WFT/Commanders
    JP and Mitch, formerly with JP, are a must listen for all dedicated WFT (Commanders) fans. They deliver up to date information, insightful and funny insight, and continuous interviews with Ron and all the players. I’ve gotten to know the personalities of so many members of the team and it creates even more reasons to believe in and hope for the best for each individual. The Pete beat never fails to come out of nowhere with something you weren’t looking at. Mitch always reminds you that the trenches are the real stars. This is the best pod for all WFT fans. Thanks for what you guys do!
  • JKD1997

  • jiffyhippo
    What’s with the swearing?
    You sound like juveniles. Great impression you make for your sponsors.
  • mjk9825
    Great show
    As a long time Chicago / Skins fan (George Allen coming from the Bears), I love your passion and insight. You guys are great. The Mitch golf - draft episode was the best. Bye Bye Dan!!!!
  • JEBco24
    Best Commanders Podcast
    Love this podcast and the various segments (Game balls/Goats, Over/Under, 100 chips, player/staff interviews, etc.) as well as the banter. Where can I find the articles you post? The old app hasn’t had anything new for months! This is my top Commanders podcast and I look forward to collecting the 100s of beers you owe me! Keep up the great work!
  • mike h 08240
    Hail to the commanders
    Die hard fan here! Even though this team gives me heartburn and headaches. These guys tell it like it is. I wish b mich would make a guest appearance and then it would be even more good. Thanks fellas. HTTC.
  • CoachDavidSaur
    Lifelong Skins fan in Pittsburgh
    As a lifelong skins fan (36 years old), staying connected to the team I love is vital. The podcast is an automatic download for me every time it drops. As a college basketball coach I’m always on the road or trying to sneak in a workout and will throw the show on. All 3 of you do a phenomenal job, Pete has come a long long way since joining the podcast. Bright future! Thanks for all u guys do.
  • Rick Kosack
    The Real Deal!
    The best part of the podcast is that the guys tell us what we need to hear. No sugar coating. If the team plays awesome, they tell us that. But if they’re playing like a dumpster fire, they will tell us as well. Great podcast for Washington Commanders
