Best Villa Coverage + Humor

I have many Aston Villa podcasts in my stream but this one is the best. It’s fair without straying too far into being too negative.

Needs a new tone

I really want to love this podcast. The problem is that every single topic is utterly ‘glass half empty’. Literally nothing excites the presenters and it’s a constant search for what to be worried or disappointed about. They need a balance of constructive criticism but a tone, energy and perspective that makes it engaging for the audience. I turned the last episode off after they immediately found all the bad things that could happen with Coutinho signing.

My Favorite Hour of the Week

Excluding when Villa are actually on the pitch, this is my favorite hour of the week. These guys do such a fantastic job. I became a Patron several months ago, which I also recommend. Can’t speak highly enough this show. Intelligent, funny, and very thoughtful on all things Aston Villa.

Great mix of Aston Villa news, analysis and humor

My favorite Aston Villa podcast. Well produced and great mix of Aston Villa news and humor. Very entertaining.

New to Villa glad for the help

Newish Villa fan. Although Villa may not be a top 6 team MOMS is absolutely taking the cup in podcast world. Pretty sure Dean Smith listens to them but if he doesn’t, he should.

Aston Villa Observations for the Avid Fan

By far my favorite podcast, regardless the topic. David and Co. provide insightful thoughts on all things Aston Villa, ranging from thoughts on the recent match to the infamous Scott Hogan Touch Count Meter™️. Even if you’re not a Villa fan, MOMS will make you contemplate why no one speaks about your club in this light.
ScottKrzywonos

Fun, funny, and just the right tone

You can get run-of-the-mill EPL updates anywhere. MOMS takes a different route, specifically with the AVFC view in mind. The crew at MOMS are having fun, and the podcast is better for it. Their sense of humor is on point, and they understand that Villa aren’t a top-six team (so they have no delusional assessments). A+ work.

Excellent Pod

Ever since the Aston Villa Review went away I've been trying to fill the hole they left behind... and since lord knows the club won't do it MOMS is an excellent next best thing. Seriously though, good coverage, fun conversations, and always a few good laughs to get you through the misery of Villa fandom.

Top notch Villa pod.

It's been a rough few years to be a Villa supporter. These guys help us get through the hard times.

Great Villa Pod

Literally the best Villa pod by 2 England based blokes named David and Dan. As a Villa lover in the U.S., this is a must listen podcast to understand more about the present and the past of our beloved club. UTV

Really enjoy listening to the MOMS team from Grand Rapids, Michigan.
