    Great show
  • ChimRichels1182
    Great show
    Wish it was on more consistently
  • daddyoram
    Johan 5 stars. Oram 1 star
    Oram is vaccinated yet crying that some might not be in the Suns arena and saying AZ has taken some hits this year. This coming from someone from Portland and now living in CA. Just stop!
  • WDWSteph
    Way too biased
    Not being realistic and being really disrespectful to other teams by acting like the lakers don’t need to play well against them. i hate that weird homer energy
  • Hubestar
    Jovan is the best Lakers beat writer
    Jovan is the best I have read. I have been a Laker fan since 1981! Jovan, welcome to covering the REAL LA basketball team! It’s great to get your breakdown after every game. Keep up the great work!

    Orem is one of the best lakers analyst!

    Enjoy the Show
    I enjoy the show because they do talk about the lakers and do their best to spin the storylines. However, the show at times does start off a bit slow to get to laker talk and it’s mostly a 30-45 minute podcast (with oddly times inserted ads). Would enjoy the show more if they hit the ground running when the podcast started. Even with that being said, I still like the laker talk and the guests.

    No Troll/No Spin
    Covering one of the most loved, hyped and hated teams in sports without cranking up the drama or taking a side, this is Lakers talk for grown ups. Having been around since the Kobe/Pau championship runs, and with a deep knowledge of the franchise, the Kamenetzy brothers tell it like it is. Sometimes wrapped up in some pretty painful dad jokes*

    Audio is too bad to listen
    It sounds like it could be cool but you will never know since everyone sounds like they are whispering at you from the International Space Station. Makes me think no one cares about the podcast enough to put a little effort into sound engineering. Listening to the first 2 seconds would have tipped someone off. I listen to tons of podcasts daily and have never heard anything this bad. I’m really hoping to find a regular Laker podcast but this audio quality hurts too much. Update 11/4: audio quality is getting better (less tin-y) but I still have to listen to this on full volume compared to everything else on lowish volume.

    Good Podcast/Bad Audio
    The content is fantastic and if the audio wasn’t so poor I would give it 5 stars. It sounds like an echo chamber and is really difficult to listen to. Fix the audio issue and the rating changes to 5 stars.
