    Great Isles Beat Insight
    And Andrew, are you ok man? Seems like you were as beaten down as Islanders are in the podcast of 11/25
  • John Frusciante
    Solid Isles hockey analysis
    The man knows his stuff, is close to the team, easy to listen to, and moves along at a good pace.
  • SharksFan1947
    Go-To Podcast for NYI Fans
    Andrew does a great job of keeping the fans up-to-date on all matters re: the NY Islanders.
  • LouieCee
    Andrew does a good job when its not rangers talk
    Love Andrews coverage, he does the best he can under a Lou regime with very little info and access. My only gripe is too much Rangers talk especially when your buddy Colin is on. Most Isles fan loath the Rangers and don’t want to hear about them.
  • isles 2021
    Not great
    Too much off topic convos. No one cares about their inside jokes and most of us have busy jobs and lives and want to hear useful analysis. I wish there were more smart podcasts on the Isles like Arthur and AJ’s Belmont podcast. This podcast is so old school that caters to a homogenous old fashioned male crowd and not a diverse audience. May work now for a few but doesn’t work for long term audience growth.m or for a modern and diverse audience

    Good podcast!
    Just found out about this podcast. Great episode with Jim Baumbach of Newsday!!!
  • Turin55
    You know...
    You know, some good content, you know, some good interviews, you know, a decent podcast, you know, and lots of, you know, verbal ticks. But Andrew is a writer/reporter, not an on air personality after all, so we should cut him some slack, you know.
  • Doc Ad
    Come for the Isles info and...
    Come for the Isles info and stay for Andrew’s fumbling of every players name save Barzal 😁 Seriously, a nice podcast from our media man most embedded with the team with interviews that you won’t hear elsewhere. UPDATE: The pod has added some production values and Andrew is very excited about his theme music, much to the chagrin of his wife!
  • Isles239
    Great Pod
    Just what the Isles fans needed! Andrew has some great player interviews gets the inside story! Please keep it up! Hasn’t been one bad interview yet! Thanks again from a long suffering Isles fan. It’s great to see we are finally coming together as a franchise. New arena some great podcasts and newspaper coverage.

    Stolid Gross Debut in Crowded Isles Pod Field
    Islander podcasts abound nowadays, and if not (yet) a “top six” podder, Gross offers a workmanlike and informative weekly effort. Not sexy or glamorous but consistently solid (the podcast equivalent of Casey Cizikas). His recorded interviews with players and other Isles folks (great chat with Shannon Hogan) are a nice bonus feature. Island Ice has quickly earned a spot on my pod roster.

    A must for Isles fans
    Only ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ until you get some intro music :). Otherwise, you’re serving all of us Isles diehards wonderfully. Great stuff!

    Islanders Insight
    Andrew does a great job with this podcast. Since he covers the team daily, he brings insightful interviews with the Islanders players and staff. This is what sets this podcast apart from the other Islander podcasts. This one is well worth your time!
  • such doubt
    Great pod
    Great to have more isles content from Andrew! Go isles!
