anti-libWokeI see that what was once a great series has turned woke. Racism, lesbianism, and hating white men has nothing to do with good sports journalism. Figures this is coming from Disney. Just like Disney’s movie division and ESPN, now 30 for 30 is off my watch list. Great job guys!

MarksgreenExcellentI just finished the 3-part Hobey Baker series. Well-written and produced, and a story I’d not previously heard. Looking forward to diving into more episodes.

USA MknitterGirl v. HorseJust finished all 4X episodes of Girl v. Horse. It truly caught my attention with having owned horses while growing up, as well as running cross country (had to go outside the US in the early 1970s to do so when in college - pre Title IX era). I also learned a lot about epilepsy—thanks for being so vulnerable, as well as providing tips of what to be aware of and what to do when being with someone experiencing a seizure. Kudos for sharing your real internal and external feelings and emotions.

Crazy4Birds8Started out great but has gone very downhillFeels like they have lost the idea of what 30 for 30 was about. The latest episodes about girl vs horse are just not what I subscribed to this podcast for. Lost the beam.

Lilt94930 for 30 podcasts30 for 30 podcasts are all about race in sports. It’s not about the love of the game that millions of us have, but it has to be about the divide. Truly sad and no longer worth listening to.

RIR36The Greatest Baseball Player You’ve Never Heard Of….If you’re looking for a podcast that will take you on a journey through hidden American sports history, extraordinary talent, and personal stories, then look no further than Reclaimed: The Forgotten League. The podcast is hosted by Vanessa Ivy Rose, who has an energetic voice and a genuine and empathetic approach to storytelling. She also happens to be the granddaughter of Negro Leagues star Turkey Stearnes. The podcast covers a range of topics, including the segregation and integration of professional baseball and its impact in Black players. It also highlights the equity gaps that still exist today in MLB and the opportunity that remains to rewrite history. In episode 5 titled “The Hall” the podcast explores how baseball institutions still fail to recognize the Negro Leaguers, and notes the fact that leadership needed to change in the past for change to happen in the future. The episode is both informative and emotional, and it’s a great example of the kind of storytelling that Reclaimed is known for. Overall, if you’re looking for a podcast that invites you think deeply about the history around you, learn about the overlooked greats of America’s favorite pastime, and touch on personal family stories, then Reclaimed: The Forgotten League is definitely worth the listen!

MikeIn616They are all greatI’ve never met one I didn’t like. I listen to them multiple times. So we’ll put together. I share them with my kids and they love them too. History they wouldn’t otherwise learn. 30for30 is amazing. Keep up the great work!

dhskabs duebStarted great but fell off pointStory started great, loved his methods, from selling albums to rebuilding the community. Of course in episode four we have to bring up race issues and political crap. Gets old immediately stopped listening.

atjnoDeclinedThis show used to really great. Thoughtful about sports and how sports affect us all. Good stories about people flawed and heroic. To see people’s complexity But not a promotional show . The Crenshaw series is not good like that. I live at Crenshaw so was interested to hear it. But it just felt like a legacy polishing and not as interesting. I hope they get back to their regular journalism and move away from fan series.
-
Sarah_HolsterKing of Crenshaw — THANK YOU!Such a stellar deep dive into Nipsey’s legacy. Really enjoyed this four part series. So strong.
-
jayher17King of CrenshawA wonderful listen but I wonder in what other facets Nipsey would have channeled his energy and talent in.
-
Bubble but.Deep dives!!!!Love them!

rudyjsalazarInteresting PodcastVery good podcast that dives into a lot of interesting stories that don’t necessarily come to mind when thinking of the biggest stories. Well produced and edited. Always excited to listen to new seasons.
-
KellyGreen!WNBA story was amazing!Nice to get to know some background on female basketball players. I’ve never watched a WNBA game but I will now!
-
wpOxQVUsvGreat podcastsVery intriguing stories
-
Mercury2woMovie for your Ears!Fantastic production quality. Original sounds and clips from past events, interviews and the story telling - it’s like a movie every time I listen to it. Absolute 5 on 5!
-
Mj2xtremeI love 30 for 30Until they made it political. It’s like the way I miss sportscenter. Come back home bud, please
-
P, TonyGreat podcast series!These are meticulously-constructed stories that place sporting events and athletes in the larger context of history. Each of these lovingly-presented stories is a movie begging to be made.
-
JeffB444Thank God season 8 is finally here!!My friends call me the podcast cast king because I listen to so many different podcast all the time. But far and away the 30 For 30 series of podcasts are the best things going. Your superior storytelling,Mixing sports and history, and production, put these podcasts in a class of their own. Thank God season eight is finally here. You’ve been away too long!!

David10831st episode of March 11th 2020How do you tell the story of Rudy Gobert getting covid with zero mention of him mocking covid and touching all the microphones? That was the talk of the day when he got it. Zero mention of it? That can’t be an accident you left that part out. Very weird.
-
gr33nfire14I’m not even a sports person...but this is one of the best investigative podcasts I’ve come across. The topics they choose consistently surprise me (in the best way) by veering away from the mainstream/overdone sports, and I find myself getting invested in things I’ve never thought or cared much about (poker, gymnastics, horse-racing, etc). Keep up the incisive reporting!
-
MarcAlexander7Love it all!Great series for Bloodlines. Very engaging and very well done.
-
Booker WEBSubjects great music too loudMusic in the background often enhances a podcast, but when you have to strain to hear the talking it isn’t worth the effort.
-
seaside.caBloodlines horsesExcellent... absolutely excellent... very informative as well as compelling... again excellent

JSV211NQActivists instead of journalistsThere seems to be a lot more activism rather than journalism in this podcast now. Loosing interest.
-
TikoshakGood stuffThese podcasts are always well done and interesting only complaint is that the seasons are fairly spaced out
-
spcarverLove podcast —— BUTI am confused. Started to like podcast but it starts and revolves around santa Anita... but you NEVER discuss track...drugs...compare other tracks and data.... it’s crazy, nothing scientific. Like saying people are obese because they don’t except while omitting eating and nutrition. This started so well...wish you could finish it with a real analysis

Podcast EvangelistExcellent podcast, despite HORRIBLE scoreI don’t understand how a production of this quality could have allowed the composer to get paid for such an imbecile, minimalist, pathetic imitation of a score. WAS there a composer? Or did some intern purchase Garage Band for the iPhone and record it that way? Let’s emphasize that the intern was probably still in high school. Make that middle school. The music seems to have gotten progressively more stupid, more annoyingly stripped down. First an endlessly repeated “idea,” then just an endlessly repeated bunch of notes, then two notes now just one - over and over. Sadly, it’s hard to ignore. I’m at the point of giving up on the gripping, well researched, well written, well edited story of abuse at USA gymnastics because of this idiocy.

acfromwvBest show everAdam should be the common sense presidential candidate!!
-
osireuggjwoeirugwerkFun & interesting podcast. Annoying theme musicI’ve enjoyed every episode I’ve listened to. As a Padres fan I particularly enjoyed “Ricky Don’t Quit” and, even though I have zero interest in Yoga I was captivated by the season on Bikram. Please change the theme music. It is a shrill, annoying and ugly attempt at a fanfare. It missed its target.

hazelbnrJames ScottThe James Scott segment is a fair tribute to a man of great talent, and a comment in the lost talent that gets locked up. An important documentary on the need for prison reform, and an invitation to society to look at how we fail ourselves in so many ways. End prison for profit now. There are many segments of 30 for 30, aside from the James Scott, that I learned from and enjoyed. Well done.

BlairinnycExcellent, Insightful, HeartbreakingThis deep dive into the Karolyis, USA Gymnastics and the numerous gymnasts impacted by the rigorous pathway to Olympic Gold is superb if not heart wrenching to absorb. I only wish this was a video podcast or had been done for TV because there are so many visual moments and gymnastics performances that I would have enjoyed seeing .

n5u7ooqwReviewIt has a little bout of language but other than that great podcasts
-
tallsallySo glad they’re back to the documentary style!Left my original review below. Happy to have a docu-style show back! I live documentary-style audio. I don’t like listening to commentary about a TV show. Right now the only reason o don’t unsubscribe is the hope it will go back to the old format. From a strategic standpoint connecting the audio with the other content makes sense. But hijacking a documentary-style feed with drive-time sports talk radio recapping documentary doesn’t work for me. It’s like tuning in for the State of the Union and only getting the commentary.

nashdawg18Pretty goodI like them

brooklynmuse79A critique on the culture of winningIs the gold for a few worth the price of so many? This is about the culture of valuing only the winners. But the winners won’t say that out loud. Instead, they create myths and propaganda to fuel that rare win and deny the voice and value of so many broken others. I loved this podcasts because it airs that voice and values those others.
-
lm123;Excellent podcast detailing history of Karolyis, their abuse tactics and the price of successHighly recommend especially for any sports fan who watches the Olympics or anyone who followed the Larry Nassar sexual abuse case.
