Great chat with Raja, Howard and Austin. Fantastic incite. Thanks, guys!

Love this pod. These three have hit their stride as a three man weave.

Of all the pods, Wos, Rob and Justin are by far the best. They’re funny, informative and entertaining. Love their dynamic and can’t help laughing every time I listen. Thank you for smart analysis and a great listen.

S/O RINGER METALHEADS

Raja doesn’t sound like he watches the games. Logan is hard to listen to

Kerm is a DAWG!!!!

Why do you keep forcing that bum Seerat in the podcast feed.

it’s a bit a of a mess.. Logan isn’t the best, but he tries really hard to be funny and curses for no reason, wish we could get raja without him. lots of unneeded skits where they try to bring the producer in for air time.. yes you can just fast forward buts it’s annoying I’m forced to do so.. hope someone finds them funny. Other than that it’s good bball content

…is why he’s considered “The Podfather.” Great idea; many of us have missed Seerat since her regular appearances to talk NBA (and especially the Raptors) have become fewer & far between. Good luck with the show Seerat!

Can’t listen to A. Rivers anymore. Dude’s so self-absorbed that I get embarrassed for him just listening. Still love Group Chat and anything with Raja Bell.

Title explains it all.

This feed is a mess. I just spent 20 minutes listening to Austin Rivers complain about spending too much money on a birthday dinner. Gave up before they got to any sports. Mimatch is a better pod. Bring those guys back to this feed.

In October of 2012 Kevin Love got drunk, punched a wall and broke his hand. Schwartz spins it as knuckle pushups, and then has Woj do a hit piece with Love trashing Wolves to change the narrative. To this day that is how fans remember it. What is the name of the bar?

Please give us a way to listen to Raja without Logan

The saddest opening I’ve ever heard. Klay went to another team for fifty mill, someone grandma didn’t just die. Relax, you’ll be okay.

Logan ruins the whole feed. He tries to hard. Curses to much and sounds corny doing it. We get it Logan, you’re black. You’re way to smart to speak that way and you make the other hosts uncomfortable. Get it together

Wos is just awful. Can’t listen to this.

Logan seems like a poser, everyone else is cool.

Thank you Kerm!! Logan has been killing me with this since this podcast began. Killa Kerm!! Ahhhh!!!

the continuinty / CONTinuity scandal was the first time a podcast has made me actually full gut laugh out loud so completely worth it.

Please stop putting Wos on this show…this dude knows nothing about hoops and laughs at all his terrible jokes. Brutal to listen to

Group chat is great. The dynamic/chemistry between those three is in a great place. I want to enjoy Real ones but Logan... Raja is solid. I gotta admit i just skip all the real ones and listen to group chat religiously these days. Been a listener since the Ringer started. RIP Tjarks miss your insights and the enthusiastic/joyful curiosity you approached the game with. Will not be forgotten 💔

I love Group Chat. I am not a fan of Logan tbh. If I see a group chat episode I’m in…but real ones will be skipped

Boy is bad on the mic

Like Raja much more than I would have imagined, as a Lakers fan. If Logan could stop going overboard whenever he says the word partners, and learn how to say the word continuity, I’d have no complaints.

Enjoy the instant pods. Need more substance in your analysis. The rotating cast of bloviators leads to a lot of inconsistency in quality. The cheesy potty mouth man-child with the early aughts takes needs to grow up. Only Bill would consider some of this culturally relevant.

They just spew hot takes with nothing to back it up, starting to question if these even watch basketball. They don’t even cover what’s topical because they want to feel unique and it just ends up being a garbage product.

Group chat is great but Logan and Raj I just can’t listen to them. Group Chat could make this a 5 by themselves and I love the show but Wos ruined it by complimenting Stephen Smith who never deserves praise from anyone. Wos I still love to listen to you but no longer respect you after bringing Stephen into a sports conversation

Really only enjoy the Rob takes lately. Wos is so extra with his hateful criticisms. Doesn’t provide anything constructive just rips on players and teams. Begs the question if he even enjoys basketball. Rob is thoughtful and provides well balanced analysis and insight. Would be so much better without Wos

@seeratsohi is back! You were missed!

I get the sense when I listen to this show that it’s just some fans sharing surface level opinions. I can get the same info and insights from my friends. It’s a no for me.

Real ones this past week with Howard Beck and Raja Bell was definitely great. If they were the only two on I would definitely rate them 5 stars.

Raja is by far the standout. Logan is a good addition, but they don’t need Beck. I feel as if his placement is forced. I will still listen for Raja, I feel as if he is a quality analyst. The other show with Wos and those two super nerds is bad. Wos has too many garbage takes, which is annoying because his primary debate strategy is just to laugh really loud and say “Come on now guys”. And the two nerds are too effeminate to push back, so they just serve as Wos’ yes men. Example: The fact that he went on and on laughing off Sabonis as a third team candidat….but put Haliburton on second team for having two and a half good months is the nail in the coffin for me as far as this show goes.

Group Chat: I really only listen to the podcast to hear Rob Mahoney and his opinions. He does a good job breaking down the games and provides great insight into players strengths and weaknesses. Wos is ok, I think he is pretty good in doses and can provide some good insight at times. He tends to be pretty negative and bashes players quite a bit. It feels like he goes through the different options to responding to a question in his head, and always will go for the hottest take. Justin is sadly dragging the show down in my opinion. Compared to Wos and especially Rob you can just tell he doesn’t watch enough basketball. He delivers opinions and thoughts that are pretty weak. He prioritizes creating conflict to make the podcast “interesting” but that makes him come a across as an idiot sometimes. Real Ones: I haven’t listened since 2022 because Logan Murdock gets on my nerves. I love listening to Raja breakdown his thoughts about players and matchups. I think Raja is great on that podcast. Logan’s questions are mediocre at best most of the time, but his opinions are just irritating and lazy. It feels like Logan is just looking for approval from Raja most of the time, even though he’s the host! The dynamic is backwards.

Logan and Howard are solid and they have great insights and chemistry with Raja. But man I think Raja is hands down the best part of the show. Every time he is not in an episode I am let down. Raja just has such good stories and perspectives and is super funny too. Group chat is good too but Real Ones when Raja is on is my favorite by far.

I love Group Chat and have liked the addition of Howard Beck to Real Ones.

Fire him

Thought this show was objectively really quality but I feel like some personalities (wosny lambre) will attempt to draw attention by giving overly critical takes or simply demonstrates a lack of knowledge about smaller market teams in particular. Leads to lower quality product

Just listened to the most recent episode about Giannis’ place in history, and they just rambled about rumors about him leaving… no stats, no background, no analyzing his growth, this show is basically first take. No intelligent insight

I like how they really get into detail about the stories they are talking about,also they have some pretty good people running the show.

Boy do they have fun being racist. I have lived my life hearing ‘we are only kidding.’ Not funny.

wow every single one of these shows is not great. particularly real ones. howard beck is the only redeeming quality. Logan and raja holy moly. 0 insight. group chat is not great either. its either faux-nerds who think they are smart. or wos lazily saying nothing. whatcha doing bill simmons?

He ruins a decent show

Real ones is dope! Love the vibe fellas!

Love the pod but there’s too much superfluous profanity

I like Wos on group chat. The other two sound like AIs. Real Ones is good. Like Raj. Beck great. Host trying too hard. Too much superfluous cursing. Sounds like teenagers trying to be edgy.

Bad

Wos loooooooves to name crap. We get it u know some people

See above

There are many way better NBA pods out there. These guys are just full of hot takes and lame opinions. First time Ive ever rated a podcast one star.
