    Out of Touch
    These guys spend more time talking about themselves than they do the Kings. They have the most archaic,obnoxious and unoriginal opening theme song/old man screaming ever! Early last season one of the men in this podcast said “Akil Thomas would never be an NHL’er.” If you’re looking for a good Kings Podcast, go to All The Kings Men. Don’t waste your time with these fools.

    The Best!
    Love what Mayor and DB bring to the LA Kings fan community. Great insider perspective, solid interviews. They both know their stuff when it comes to hockey and the LA Kings. Go Kings Go!!

    Kings of the Podcast = EXCELLENT!! 👍👍
    This is by far the best hockey podcast! “The Mayor” John Hoven and “DB” Dennis Bernstein perform Gordie Howe hat tricks on every episode for their listeners! Tough to do, but the episodes are always action packed with quality content and awesome guests. The stories with players and guests are fantastic and they really give you inside stories that you won’t find or hear anywhere else. Kings of the Podcast is the place to go for all of your LA Kings info and they have all of the insider information regarding anything LA Kings related. Yes, this is mostly an LA Kings based podcast, but this is also a must listen for any hockey fan! You won’t be disappointed!

    Best LAK Podcast
    John and Dennis knock it out of the park every single episode. They always have Kings insight that I can’t get anywhere else, as well as having great guests and even better stories. Would recommend this podcast to every Kings fan and any hockey fan looking for a good laugh. Keep it up guys!

    Unreal
    Best podcast on earth. PERIOD. Take the misfits “where Eagles dare” mix it with some Frank Sinatra, add a dash of slayer and run DMC and you have the personality of these two amazing hosts. Listen more tweet less!

    Best LA Kings podcast
    Far and away this is the best pod for all things LA Kings related. Unbiased straight shooting from DB and The Mayor, great guests, great format, absolutely no complaints on my end.

    Top Notch
    John The Mayor is always first, and consistently provides an honest, inside perspective of the LA Kings and the organization.

    Poor hockey knowledge
    They are both extremely arrogant if you don’t agree with them then you are wrong most of the time they have no clue what they are talking about
  • el_gut
    Good
    Content is good. The hockey talk is good they’re free to be critical of the team at times . Only negative for me is the music . Cringey O.C sounding punk . Hate to even call it punk . The Metallica in the intro is the only song they’ve played that didn’t make me want to turn the pod off .

    Information is good, when the hosts stop patting themselves on the back to give it
    They have good insights into the Kings and lots of relevant information and they obviously have deep contacts and sources. The problem is that they are always hitting you over the head with how great they are and their exceedingly high self opinions are grating. Their shoulders must ache from patting themselves on the back so much. a dash of humility can go a long way. Especially in contrast to the usually humble hockey players they interview, it sticks out
  • Gkrall
    Annoying opening
    The opening is incredibly annoying but get past that as it’s very informative especially if you want to know what’s going on in the minors . Good chemistry between the guys.
  • DesertMofo
    Best LA Kings podcast hands down!
    There is no other Kings podcast that comes close to Kings of the Pod. The 3 periods format is genius. The Mayor & DB bring it every time. Whether it’s prospects, the Reign or the Kings. You will not find more in-depth coverage of the Kings organization.
  • StephenFerracioli
    Much Improved Signal-to-Noise Ratio
    Taking back my previous poor review. Really enjoyed the Gaspar interview.
  • Lonski75
    Audio needs fixing
    The latest episode number 8, was pretty bad audio. I have yet to be able to listen to one of these episodes with decent audio, it makes it unbearable. I do appreciate the content though. Please fix ASAP.

    Easy win
    I have yet to find a better podcast on the LA Kings. Top notch guests, inside information and high IQ hockey analysis. The Mayor and DB have made a seamless transition into the world of podcasting. The projected ceiling of this pod is off the charts! Well done gentlemen and thank you. Tony D.
  • Vinnie Weldon
    The best hockey podcast out there.....
    Now yes I have been a guest but there are so few good hockey podcasts out there that this one stands head and shoulders above the ones that are out there. It's great hockey talk BUT if you are an LA Kings fan specifically you won't find a better source of not just the main roster but the prospect system and all kinds of LEGIT rumors and action behind the scenes.
  • Andy Clinton
    Everything Los Angeles Kings hockey.
    If you are an avid LA Kings fan, no need to search useless pods, this is IT. John “The Mayor” Hoven and Dennis “Mr. Umbrella Drink” Bernstein bring every bit of knowledge and character to this excellent podcast. Loaded with in depth LA Kings news. Only to bring some of the best guests that Southern California has to offer when it comes to hockey to comedy. No need to go anywhere else for Hockey podcasts than right here with the Kings of the Podcasts.

    Rockstars of All Things LA Kings
    The Mayor John Hoven has nothing better to do than hound all his insiders and sources to give us the dirt. Dennis Bernstein has nothing better to do than down Red Bulls 24/7, so he has everything else covered in hockey (NHL, AHL, College and Juniors). Between the two of them is more than enough to cover your LA Kings addiction. Wanna live your best life? Listen to this pod. An hour isn’t enough, I need more to satisfy my addiction.

    The best
    There is no one out there that know more about the Kings organizations, players, prospects and rumors than the Mayor and DB. The only problem with this podcast is we needed it 10 years ago. Must listen to for hockey fans.
  • Kelleyland
    Best LA Kings info
    Mayor and DB are laying it down and giving the people what they want. Solid news, great insight, and now with Ep3 great guests.
  • TJstipati
    A must listen for Kings fans
    Dennis and John are fantastic together and both have a dearth of knowledge regarding the team, the history, the prospect pool and the game, in general.
  • PuckRogue
    If you follow the LA Kings...
    ...this is your podcast. Period. Two of the most knowledgeable, accurate and news-breaking reporters in all of sport, let alone with regard to the Kings. Love love love the podcast
  • A. Ron Shek
    Mandatory listening for LA Kings fans
    The Mayor John Hoven and Dennis Bernstein... need I say more?
