Ailish is a breath of fresh air.

Ailish Forfar is fabulous. Tremendous talent at this genre. Such an endearing personality as well. Justin is a good foil but Ailish carries the show.

Fan of the Fan Morning Show

Great, balanced insights from Ailish and Justin. Electric chemistry!

Top Shelf

Unfortunately, I am unable to listen live, but I do make sure to listen to at least one hour of the the Podcasts everyday. I think Ailish and Justin trade analysis bits nicely and seem to listen to what the other is saying. Spoiler alert: They get married and have 4 kids (one playing each of the 4 major sports). Just kidding, not kidding, of course 😉 Top shelf content and delivery.

AMAZING HOSTS! 3 stars because they don’t talk about the Raptors anymore

So I followed to get my Raptors fix and we’ll.... lastly I haven’t heard one word of Raptors content. It’s a shame because they really are amazing hosts. Wish they would bring Raptors content back. It’s a 2.5 hour podcast. You can make some room.
