Bring back the old cast!

Used to be former players with great insight. Now it’s just a random guy giving his two cents.

Best PSU football podcast

By far the best PSU football podcast! Great to hear authentic feedback from former great PSU players. They call it like they see it and its much appreciated and needed.

Great new pod

Just watched on YT and subbed there, but wanted to come over here and give you guys a follow. Definitely sound like naturals, love the energy/positive vibe, and always great to hear from the perspective of players that have done it a highest level. #WeAre 🦁
