NeilArmstrong’s LSU Media Rankings

Hey guys it’s time for my quarterly ranking of LSU sports media. I consume as much baseball and football content as anyone I know and am more qualified to speak on this than you are. Before you ask, yes this is the real Neil Armstrong.
1. Pod of Geauxld - These baws are back to releasing a new pod every Tuesday and have the most reasonable takes along with a good mix of humor. Their intern seems like a nice guy and knows ball, but he consistently fumbles the audio, tonight there was no audio for the first 7 minutes on YouTube. POG is the steak dinner that I look forward to every week.
2. Hunt Palmer - 104.5 is filled with a lot of not so great content and Hunt is the best talent they have by far. Hunt is a logical person and often views things through a lense that I hadn’t thought of. His Friday picks ATS make me laugh, 10 points to Gryffindor.
3. Mike’d Up - Mikie was flat out awful when he first started his show and he’s really made some major strides since then. When I listen to his show I feel like I’m having a conversation with friends. I enjoy his and Jared’s football takes and it’s great having a player’s perspective. They have the best interviews of any show hands down and should really be proud of what they have going.
4. Blake Ruffino - I initially didn’t like this guy and he’s definitely not for everybody, but I enjoy his content. Blake knows his X’s and O’s better than most media and I’ve for sure learned a couple of things watching his show. Blake has had some flat out ridiculous takes but what I like most about him is that he’s not afraid to call a spade a spade.
I’m going to give an honorable mention to the kid who replaced Jordy Culotta. Does anyone know what happened to Jordy or what he’s doing now? I figured he’d still be involved in LSU sports media in some capacity but I guess not. I’ve tried listening to Noah’s show and it’s not terrible but a lot of it is very cringe and not my cup of tea. I can definitely respect what Noah is doing and he seems like he’s working hard. I’d also like to give an honorable mention to Cauble for standing strong in CBK’s face. Cauble was here before CBK and will be here long after CBK is gone.

Didn’t Jordy fall off the map after he got in trouble? Or am I thinking Jordy Hultberg?

I liked One Team One Podcast but I guess they’re done

Never heard of P.O.G. Will give it a listen.
Haven’t listened to Mike’d Up since probably the ‘24 baseball season. Wanted to love it but couldn’t…will give it another shot.
What’s the opinion of OTB now w Hester & Flynn? For some reason it’s the only show I can’t find on Spotify, so I haven’t really been able to check it out since Flynn joined.
Hunt has been my go to for the past 2-3 years. Great show.

The only ones that you should actually listen to without concern is Brandon Taylor, Matt Flynn, and Jacob Hester. Their insight is different they don't offer "sources" or speculation. They just talk about what their eyes see when discussing the game film or watching practice.
The actual media members like the ones you mentioned should be taken with a grain of salt. They all have their biases and lies. Anyone claiming sources has a bias and very rarely do they actually offer factual information. Its like anything with media these days, you find the information for yourself and do your own research. All we get are information plucked to fit a narrative.

I frequently listen to OTB as it’s the best morning show IMO. It’s not exactly riveting radio but definitely worth a listen if you want something in that time slot
