JoeMac73455 Stars except when Vernon’s onThat Chris Vernon guy is incredibly annoying. I can’t listen if he’s on.
-
NazegodVernoVernon is legit a moron and it’s clear bill and ryen think the same
-
WeirdEraLess is MoreThe Sunday NBA episodes with Russillo are Bill’s best. I wish he would stop diluting them with extra guests, like the loud and often insufferable Chris Vernon on 3/30.
-
AK0008If Wos is on I’m outChris Vernon and Wos are unlistenable. Real Ones is great without Logan. Wos and Logan are not voices fit for broadcasting. And their repeated cussing just seems to show a lack of imagination or intelligence. Bill- there are MANY black broadcasters that are awesome- don’t be cheap. Hire them. Other than that love the podcast.

Clark745Great podcastThis is a great podcast for keeping up with anything sports. I only really listen to the NFL parts but that is what makes this podcast so good, you can like either sport and be fine.
-
Dadadadad()()GreatPerfect podcast for me!!!!! SPORTS LOVER! Please give us more!
-
SlendermannnSimmons stopped maturing in 1991The podcast Is good for shallow thinkers.
-
Danny PotsGoldsberry PodClassic Bill to have the great Kirk Goldsberry on to talk about how his college class worked on solutions to fix the league, and then proceed to spend 81-82% of the time espousing his own solutions.
-
mrb55ORHouse and Wonsey-the best!!!Those two guys together with you make the absolute best podcast, funny, CORRECT & ACCURATE INFO., and just plain enjoyable to listen to. Give us more!!
-
Bill wake upDead basketball podcastIf you want to join a Celtics circle jerk, this is the pod for you. My god. It’s almost worse than Mallory’s god forsaken laugh.
-
Raj FanPeter SI normally like his appearance but his Rodgers’ bias is absurd. Rodgers stinks and needs to go away.
-
Rodgers MustacheStick to basketball billRussillo and Simmons sundays are the best. Everything else is whatever
-
yaboyfonziBill and Ryan the best for bballSimmons and Ryan the best besides Brian talking hoop love them together.
-
ACBoy326FunnyToo many ads and gambling stuff, but otherwise great
-
Csaw21LorneSeriously, not one single criticism of King Lorne Michaels. I get that you are both sycophants but Good God, that was boot licking of the highest order.
-
541redTastesNFL cousin sal and Joe house-ness. Otherwise it’s LOTS of NBA filler lol 🤙
-
gritngrindbasketballBill remains the GOATIt is amazing he still has this passion all these years later. Thank you for all the memories Simmons
-
Back to ESPNSeriously?The NBA is a Ponzi scheme and so is this podcast
-
great i sayAn incredible podLove this pod. Great insight and discussions on sports and culture. Bill is awesome
-
Microphone buy oneNo more Shea SeronoSkip Shea.
-
Mcconn23No one cares NBADying league like this pod
-
Bronx okStill GreatLove the pod, still makes me laugh
-
Seamus CannonPushing addictionCould be a good pod, but 70% of it is unpaid promo for Fanduel. You’re already sponsored by fanduel, have shows about betting on fanduel, have ads from fanduel, yet instead of talking about the sports part of sports, you mostly just talk about your insane level of gambling and how it relates to fanduel. I don’t gamble, but a lot of listeners do and if they haven’t had a company bought by Spodify, having gambling pushed on them so heavily could be damaging.
-
PrmtymWeek of the Super BowlI’ve never left a podcast review before for any show. The fact that Bill spent 6 hours talking about NBA this because of the Luka trade is dumb. Man he really got every gram of meat off that bone. Bill said “sorry, sometimes NBA wins”. No Bill, you lost. Lost a listener until next season when Guess the Lines returns. Update. Really want to listen to this SuperBowl recap episode, but really afraid the 1st hour will be about NBA trades. Wish me luck.
-
JazzdelmarWosnyWosny is terrible. Still.
-
Sam in PortlandMore NBA conspiracy content pleaseIt’s what NBA “fans” need right now.
-
Left coastalGood podBut, no shade to Justin and Eddie, if I wanted to hear people yell, I’d watch first take, which I don’t.
-
@stickystache_bbqHe is the PodDaddyI don’t miss an episode… EXCEPT when he is doing an all NBA episode. I can’t stand the NBA. I could listen to Bill talk about literally any other subject. I would rather listen to his yearly segment with his daughter. (Which I do 😂) Love “guess the lines” during football season with Cousin Sal. Everything with Joe House is fantastic. Needed weekly Pods. All hail the PodDaddy Bill Simmons ✋🏻🤚🏻
-
Wildcat_SteamerDo Ryen and Bill Get Along Anymore?I love the pod, and when I first started listening a few years ago Ryen and Bill was my Favorite Combo. They had great Chemistry and seemed to be really good friends. Hearing them reference and laugh about obscure nba players and moves from the past, listening to them slightly disagree but often find common ground with positivity in their voices. But starting last year, I wanna say, The vibe completely changed. After thinking this about most of their podcasts last year I kinda wrote it off. But after listening to the most recent podcast, and first Ryen and Bill one of the 24-25 NBA Season, I was reminded of their seeming negativity and frustration with each other. So I decided to some investigating and listen to some old podcasts between them to see if my feelings were warranted. I listened to a few pods from 2022, 2021 and 2018. I quickly realized that the banter was much more light hearted, positive, and fun. And I’ve concluded that Bill is mostly the same, I love hearing him talk to House, Sal, and even KOC, who I don’t care for much. Many say he’s changed and are upset about Bill having “bad takes” and being reactionary. But those kinda of takes make sports talk entertaining and ultimately whats most important in any podcast, in my opinion, is the chemistry between the hosts. But Ryen has just changed. He’s become way more critical towards bill, and has a lot of negativity surrounding his commentary. He’s always called out bill but they used to find some common ground in a light hearted way, but idk, Ryen just seems sick of Bill and like he hates doing these pods. Idk what changed, maybe they need to go to some clippers games and get hammered a few times to reignite their friendship? Pod still gets 5 starts, as it’s great but these are just some observations I have about my favorite duo becoming my least favorite.
-
CapnclutchSpoiler AlertLove the show. I hope Drake Maye is a bust since Bill ruined the finale of Landman so casually.
-
gfdfrtMy friends!Bill and Sal together are the absolute best. Enough said.
-
Minor League Sports Capitol SDSelf absorbed and tone deafI think the fame and fortune has eroded his once rapier wit. Now he just loves talking about how incredible he is.
-
Denise in DCWife of sports fan secretly enjoysI only mildly follow professional sports, but my husband is sports obsessed. He listens to every sports podcast under the sun, so I’ve heard them all and find most of them pretty intolerable. Love the Simmons podcast mix of interesting sports commentary and banter. This morning I found myself thinking “I wonder what Bill Simmons will say about the Commanders win!” But don’t tell my husband, that will completely throw off my bargaining power.
-
kdub35357EnoughEnough with the talk about Bill’s daughter’s boyfriend. WE DON’T CARE.
-
nilbogpilgrimSo long cowboyListened to this podcast invariably the past 12 years, finally unsubscribed due to the soul-crushing gambling talk. It is incessant. It is irresponsible. People are already losing their homes & their lives to online gaming & you privileged old prunes center countless hours of content around your lovable ineptitude that will never make a deleterious dent in your pockets. The behavior is gross, lazy & irresponsible—you guys are spending the latter halves of your lives peddling parlays, teases, & other garbage on an audience that is largely financially insecure & obscuring it as harmless fun. Peace out, bozo.
-
Wood rest2025 = No Joe HouseEvery time Joe House jumps on it’s just impossible to listen to him. PLEASE. PLEASE. Stop having Joe House on, he has the worst insight. And never adds any value.
-
Bushwick8822Joe House..Please give us a break from House. He’s just blurting out middle aged cringe and posing as an expert. The other ringer guys or Schrager have actual research and information to share. 🙏
-
hillomspaGenerally solidNo more family guests or family friends. Terrible takes, mispronouncing names of movies. Otherwise it’s great.
-
William KruppiakListen to this podLandman is pure gold thank you for the recommendation
-
Bgirlgagaspears930Clear Celtics BiasOverall enjoy the show, but some of the NBA takes are so bad and extremely biased. Fair to have some bias. But its almost hard to listen to.
