Maddy Glab and other podcasters

[TC in St. Louis]

I keep up with Bills news through a few podcasts.  Joe Marino is my daily choice, but I also tune in to One Bills Live and Shout.  Are there others you can recommend?

 

I appreciate the enthusiasm of Maddy Glab...it's clear she loves this team and is quite knowledgable.  However, I prefer listening to Chris Brown and Steve Tasker.  The other day Maddy went on and on about Trey Lance, and the next day spent another 15 minutes or so talking about the 49'ers third backup.  It seems that the callers to that show know just as much as Maddy but sometimes she madsplains stuff we've already heard.

 

I also enjoy Bruce Nolan, who comes up with some strange yet effective analogies about the game of football.

 

Who else should I try?

Cover 1 is pretty good 

[Simon Says]

I cannot stand listening to Maddy "Gab" on One Bills Live. Her research and writing are okay but she talks endlessly. I won't bother listening to any of her podcasts. 

She cant stop after ONE talking point; always has to spew every single piece of info on a subject. Can't make one GOOD point; wants to keep piling on every note she took on a player or subject.

Whoever she works for needs to teach her how to focus on QUALITY not QUANTITY. 

You can see Brown,Tasker and guests like Trapasso cringe while she babbles on and on.

This week I noticed she often talked for 5 minutes straight before giving Trapasso an opportunity to share. 

I go to the bathroom when she starts talking. Or switch the channel to sitcom reruns. When I get back to One Bills Live she is usually still talking

I enjoy "off tackle with John fina" show, weekly 

[RobbRiddick]

Never listen to One Bills Live. I know I'll be in the minority here but I enjoy the WGR stuff in podcast form. Can't listen live as the ads annoy me and they do talk about a lot of crap but I enjoy just picking from the topics.

 

Ross Tucker is okay, and Chris Simms now and then. Also I think Rich Eisen is okay

Don't even think about saying anything negative about Maddy Glab on this board. I made that mistake once.  

Even if you are right, just don't say it....you will be sorry.

Her commentary is flawless and she is wonderful , wonderful girl.

I am a huge fan....

Anthony Prohanska of Disguised Coverage comes off like a total Xs and Os guru, and is very convincing.  However I don’t trust him at all anymore after he told me that shakir would be a can’t miss breakout star last year.

I wouldn’t knock Maddy for the Trey Lance ranting. He was an intriguing story this past week because of where he was drafted.

And for people to give you crap, that's a major endorsement  on her behalf.

Locked on is the best IMO.  Marino is super smart and gets his info out quick.  He’s also as objective as you can get for being Mafia.

I don't even think its about the content of your posts.  Honestly, you could say something like "Osama Bin Laden was not a very nice guy" and people would pile on you.  There is just something inherently objectionable about you.

Glab, with her prattling, screechy teen like voice, talking more than a couple minutes is a tough listen.

I'll say it. If she is hosting the show, I turn it off. I don't think she provides anything of value, personally. It is a waste of time when she is on.

 

Locked On Bills and Cover 1 are my normal listens. I'll listen to OBL a couple of times a week. I do enjoy Steve Tasker and Chris Brown. I think they do a decent job, though they could improve their knowledge about other teams around the league.

 

I've listened to Shout and a few others, but have not enjoyed them as much. Plus at some point it gets a little repetitive because they are all kind of talking about the same things.

Yeah I agree on the podcast form, I roll around work with earphones disguised as safety earplugs and get 9 or so hours of Bills talk everyday.

 

 I’m just a day behind because of the podcast format obviously but who cares, makes work tolerable.

[ToGoGo]

She’s easy on the eyes.

He has EXCELLENT knowledge of the league, players, and football in general. That really sets him apart. He does so much work with the draft every year, so he really knows the prospects well. Also, his overall views of the team pretty much align with mine, which is nice. I wish his podcast was longer, because I can't get enough.

Which women don't talk too much? 😄

[BarleyNY]

Other than LOB with Marino I try to find podcasts that give outside perspectives on the Bills and other teams. I tend to focus on the other teams that matter most in the AFC or ones that I have an interest in. On that last note, I highly recommend The Playcallers 8 episode podcast series by The Athletic (no subscription needed). I am not through the whole thing, but it’s been fantastic so far.

Maddy Glab and her nails on a chalkboard voice need to disappear from the face of the earth.  She also has a weird enunciation of words at times…maybe partly her accent.  Not sure where she was born and raised.
