    Lynch/Sherman
    Would love to hear what Marshawn Lynch & Richard Sherman would tell y’all about their experience on the show Stars on Mars. They were both so much fun to watch, and it was nice to get a different side of their personalities. They are fantastic TV on the field and off. I hope to see them in other projects.

    It’s good but…
    I listen every week but had to shut it off this week. And I get what they’ll say…predictable…don’t be a hater blah blah blah. because all they do talk about is Taylor Swift over and over now on nearly every podcast. I could care less about her, really, but I’m so sick of every person talking about this woman. I even have lots of her music downloaded. So it’s not just me hating the woman. If it was Madonna, or Julia Roberts, or literally anyone I would say the exact same thing. Erin and Charissa, just because someone is sick of hearing about the same pop star over and over and over again does not make them a hater. Please grow up a little. Done with this podcast unless you please get back to headlines or some substantial topics.

    Awesome Podcast
    I am very new to listening podcast. Until now I have just listened to two and I have to say I freaking love you two. I am on episode four. I listen to three in a day and I can’t wait to listen to more. I can’t wait to hear more about your personal and professional lives. You two are hysterical together.

    Erin- I’ve loved watching you commentate games since your start. Just found your podcast. I really enjoy listening to you two ladies talk life and football. I heard you talk about your WEAR line and picked me up the CLE Browns windbreaker. I LOVE it, love the podcast, and love you two ladies. Keep making me laugh! Love from the CLE ❤️

    NFL Royalty !
    You two are a match made in NFL heaven. Thank you for being real and talking to your audience as if we are right there with you. Your energy for the sport we all love is infectious and the way you report every week is to be commended. You are true professionals that understand the game and your entertainment input makes your podcast a “10” plus , not just a “5” Thank you for being the BEST podcast.

    Smiles!
    You two make my day when the podcast comes on! I am soaking up all NFL now that my daughter is working for her second NFL team as a dietitian, growing up in the league. I loved you talking about not just one getting the glory but the “tribe” who helps you get there getting the love as well. WEAR is amazing. About time we have some great gear to rep.

    Don’t stop!
    Please don’t stop talking about Taylor and Travis! They are exactly what we need right now—a little sunshine! You girls are the best and I love listening to whatever you’re in to. Congrats, Erin, on WEAR being Taylor’s choice the other night. ♥️

    Disappointing
    I was expecting the podcast to be more about football, and the back stories behind some of the interviews Erin and Charissa have done, or other back stories about players, games, NFL topics, etc. Instead, it was mainly the low-hanging fruit of superficial girl talk topics like celebrity gossip, dating, way too graphic descriptions of a skin infection, etc. The women did touch on two topics that they should have taken a deeper dive on—establishing a career in a male-dominated business and balancing a career with motherhood. Topics like these are much more relevant and important to today’s women, and should be discussed more.

    Upping my Wordle game with Erin and Charissa
    Absolutely hilarious! Reacquainted me with the words woof and loaf which helped catapult me to genius level in my last game of NYT Spelling Bee!

    Can’t Miss!
    I feel as if Erin and Charissa are my girlfriends, and I’m sitting with them laughing and sharing conversations about nothing and everything! I started listening from the beginning because I am a sportscaster wanna be, and have stayed because I love their dynamic, insights, and general knowledge of everything!
  • Tamsin20
    Calm down please
    We get it, Steve is great, Jared is great, Erin is great, Carissa is great, motherhood, motherhood, motherhood. Kinda miss the old podcast. But, I guess this is where you are now.

    Feels like sitting down with girlfriends
    This show! I’m so glad it came into my life last year, I love listening to these two catch up, talk life, work, love and headlines. It truly does just feel like sitting down with your favorite girlfriends and sharing life. I wish it was longer but I’ll take the moments we get. ❤️

    Love them but..

    I love you both so much!!
    I have loved EA forever and CT I love you too, but I have followed EA since the beginning of her career. I was going to say since college but I began college in 1992, I’m older than EA, lol! First, Congrats to Mac Rogers what an amazing name and y’all had me laughing and crying. Erin, thank you for being so open. I did not go through 9 years of IVF but my husband and I lost our first child, a boy, named after Errick “Ricky” Williams and Earl Campbell. Our son was born at 38.5 weeks, he was stillborn and named Erich Campbell, yes, we are both UT alums and Ricky signed my ultra sound during his 1998 year and he was so nice to us. Ricky was busy as he was up and won the Heisman that year, my college roommate worked in Men’s athletics at UT and she let them know about losing the littles Longhorn. Mack Brown wrote us a beautiful card as did Ricky Williams and in Erich’s casket he was buried with a schedule card that had Ricky on it with his schedule, it was advertising for The Heisman run. On our son’s headstone it says God’s #1 Draft Pick Erich Campbell Gautier November 4, 1998 We used the German spelling of Erich as my husbands name is Richard and we wanted Rich in part of his name. I tell the story because I was 23 and my husband 25, we never planned on having kids so young but my husband was an Engineer in an area of Motorola where a lot of men were becoming sterile due to this chemical in the area where he had been working even prior to finishing school. We wanted to try to know what we were up against. We got pregnant easy and the pregnancy was text book. We heard his heart beat 5 days before my induction date. We saw my OB/GYN on November 3rd and learned Erich had passed. I chose to keep my induction date of 11/4/98. We swore no more kids- we said fugg this, it took me 9 months to go back to work. I had planned on going to Law School but I was so focused on doing something for kids and others. I began a career in Clinical Research in 1999 and we finally decided we were ready in 2005, I was 31 and hubby 33. I got pregnant and was watched like a hawk as we still had no clue what caused our stillbirth. I was 34 weeks and had to see a perinatologist and was admitted to the hospital due to our son, yes another boy, being so tiny. I had to have him at 35 weeks as my placenta had deficiencies and he needed to receive nutrients outside the womb. Jaxon Royal was born 1/12/2006 and was 4 pounds 4 ounces. We learned he almost died like his big brother Erich but so thankful he did not. Jaxon’s middle name is after Darryl Royal. Erich and Jaxon have 8 years between them so Erin I truly understand the pain, the indifference you can begin to feel and the sheer excitement you feel as it becomes real. Jaxon is 17 and going into his Senior year of high school. We are very close and we have been bonded in such a way that it’s difficult to explain. I miss Erich greatly but I understand his place in our family and Jaxon is aware he has an older brother and I appreciate that he recognizes Erich on his birthday. We did have one more son, Holden Ace (his 1st name is after Jake Holden, who had his 1st Moto GP win in 2007. Ace was after Ace that tried out on idol and we love playing poker therefore Ace was perfect. In fact in the announcement We said that we went all in and hit a boat, Jax plus Aces now keep us afloat. Sorry for monopolizing the page but what you said is true everyone trying to have a child should truly understand how they are not alone. I had some fertility issues with Jaxon but only needed Clomid. However, so many of us have stories where it took us a lot of years to finally having a baby come to fruition and whether that is due to infertility or perinatal loss, women should know that so many of us exist and are here to help. CT: You are truly the best friend and your love for Erin, Jarrett and Mac is obvious and contagious. They are so very lucky to have both you and Steve. I love hearing you both recall the last 9 months and Erin I can’t wait to hear more of your firsts with Mac. I love how Howie already has a pal. I love you both for loving sports and embracing all of us women who love sports too. I also appreciate your candor, your friendship and the authenticity you both bring on TV and to the podcast. Thank you so much for making me feel as though I am great friends with you both. Love from Austin, TX! Melaina Gautier

    Charissa:
    I am the hostess. I am really shocked honestly how you spoke about me on this podcast. Wannabe instagram model, etc. I thought you were more of a “girls girl” type but obviously I was mistaken. I am sorry that I came across that way when you wanted to be seated. I am just following the “rules” put in place from my boss, and I don’t have a say in what tables are blocked off and for how long.
  • Quoin33

    I look forward to this every week!
    Y’all. Some days I shouldn’t be driving while listening. I’ve snort laughed, sprayed my tea and cried. These two are so real. If only I could be as cool as them. Thanks ladies for making my commute fun.
  • Hoopfamily25
    Don’t have to be a sports fan to love this podcast
    Love, love this podcast! Erin & Charissa are hysterical recounting their travel woes, partner annoyances & of course, football foibles. I love it because I steal NFL knowledge & try to Impress the hubby. Don’t sleep on the “Pre-Game” where they answer listener questions! It’s only 10 minutes but so entertaining!
  • Kristmcgt
    Love this duo
    These ladies are incredible. I love their humor, drive, realness and sharing of true hilarious stories and opinions. They’re whip smart and so talented at everything they do. Awesome listen!
  • lebron bron james
    Horrible
    Sounds like fox’s needs to give them more Air time blah blah blah blah. I’m so glad they pay to put this on, because on a radio station they Do not last a week. Not hating just not good.
  • Jjjrtuoj55
    Women supporting women?
    Usually, you’re very supportive of women. Not sure where the Meghan Markle hate is coming from but unnecessary. Kinda grossed out by the whole thing.

    Eric’s review
    I’m starting to listen, ladies. Love the sarcasm and cynicism. There’s so much material inherent in the show already! Imagine when it gets going and has daily interactions with people, places and things? We’ll be having a blast! I’m keeping my hat strapped on at room temperature forevermore 😃You guys are so hilarious that I wish I could be on the podcast lending my sense of humor to the whole endeavor. But, I’m not there yet so let me learn from the masters. It’s helpful, though, not going to lie 🌹
