Yeah I loved this show but it is completely stale at this point.

I think it's also ran its normal course. Not that it can't or shouldn't go on but it's been around long enough that it is what it is at this point. It's hard to keep things fresh sometimes.

I don’t remember them a few years ago spending all of Monday’s show talking every NFL game. They spend like the last 15 minutes talking non NFL and that’s it. Penn deal really has changed barstool into a gambling website. Big cat Twitter is nothing but gambling and it’s quickly getting old.

I actually still like the first hour or so of the Monday show. It seems they’re burnt out by Wednesday and Friday and trot out the same hot takes and have pretty boring interviews.

Unfortunately I think you’re right. I haven’t listened much lately. Looks like an actual ANUS pod will start soon

One thing I definitely think they should do to improve the show is get rid of Billy. I know they are leaning into how awful he is as part of the joke, but it has run it's course.



Yea Billy was kind of a quirky quarantine novelty the first few weeks but man I really cant stand him now. He is just so painfully unfunny and never really has much to add on to any conversation besides his "quirky facts." I agree that I still listen it pretty fairly but this year has seen a noticeable decline.

They need to cut down to 2 episodes a week. You can hear the exhaustion in their voice.

They’ll both leave when Barstool starts putting content on Trump’s new network

I’m not sure how well PFT translates to other things

At what point does he just take off the sunglasses and be a normal guy? Got to be exhausting staying that committed to the bit and he isn't getting younger.

I was down on them lately, but the last 3 or 4 shows before today have been really good.

I wish they talked more college football and did Monday readings again.

The Monday episodes are still legit.

Billy and Jake are the perfect foils. Hank is great too.

I’m not sure either

And honestly, and I may sound crazy, but I don’t think he’s a true sports guy. He has his own lib kinda funny lane and it worked with big cat. So I think he took up the mantle of being this huge sports guy. But I doubt he even gambles.

Most of us were really entrenched in the election and listening to Bannon, the great Rich Baris, Alex Jones and Dame Pesos basically nonstop these last few months.

I can see myself getting back into some sports podcasts now but only if they stay away from politics and #StickToSports like Clay Travis and Jason Whitlock

Hes been satiring and blogging about sports well before he ever got with bar stool

Plenty of people very much into sports that don’t gamble. I’d argue most don’t in fact

I don't think I've ever enjoyed Hank's input. I'd be fine if it was just Big Cat, PFT, Bubba, and Jake.
