    Worthy Praise
    Lots of fun to get to know our team off the ice. Russo allows fans to submit questions which is lots of fun.
  • dottys world
    Smartest hockey mind in the world
    Just ask Russo, he knows everything. His favorite line is. “I wrote this would happen a week ago”
  • Jonnyhanz
    Egomaniacs talking hockey
    Title pretty much speaks for itself on this one
  • MinnesotaMik
    Clearly you are the “they”…
    Billy doesn’t sound too up beat about it either. Hopefully you take his advice.
  • TBrettzky13
    I love pure Russo content!!!
    I love hearing Russo talk unfiltered about the Wild. Much better than the LaPanta podcast he does.
  • kkolodge1234567890

    Love Russo and all the work he does on a daily basis

    Animals don’t have souls!! They have feelings yes. Your LA brainwashed 😂😂

    Wow that is a coach with pure passion.
  • BYNOMIAL
    Great MN hockey banter
    I have been waiting to hear a podcast in this fashion for a long time. My favorite guest is Lapanta, I think he long forms just as well as Russo and they seem to do well together.
  • wildinexile
    Good, but...
    Having to listen through the Athletic app to get the whole content I pay for is annoying. Content so far has been hit and miss. Russo is great, but some of the guests have been less than compelling. For now, it’s not “can’t miss” the way his writing is. We’ll see how it evolves.

    Russsssssso
    Russo is 1000000x better without Jim Souhan. Really loving this podcast!
  • josh1475
    This should be interesting!
    Is it really a Russo podcast if it doesn’t open with trampled by turtles?
