    The best
    One of the worst times of the year is when yall decrease your shows/week. I don’t even need fantasy football content, just yall talking is wildly entertaining. Edit: kinda weird of yall to have Emhoff on. Don’t do that again.
  • Bobo-5252
    Great show
    You guys remind me of a younger version of the College Football Enquirer from Yahoo in all the best ways. Keep it up

    Week 14 Preview Pod shows how far they’ve fallen
    They literally talked 5 seconds about ach game. None of it about fantasy, then would ramble on about nonsense. No longer an actual fantasy pod anymore. Highly recommend fantasy Footballers over this now sadly

    I don’t like football
    Love the chemistry of the hosts, humorous perspectives on football

    5 stars for Fantasy Football “Name That Tune” 😂👍
    I don’t even play fantasy football (although I DO watch the NFL every Sunday, Monday, and Thursday). These three guys are always so entertaining & (to use a Bill Simmonsism) fun. Working out how to play Zoom “Name That Tune” on the fly, was laugh out loud funny — not to mention a great party game you guys invented. Keep up the great work, and we’ll be listening!

    Lame
    Having the nanny banger and woman beater on a sports show is ridiculous.
  • Noah Killian
    Give Heifetz his flowers
    I’ve heard that Netflix and Amazon are in the business for late night talk show hosts, and here is my entrant—HEIFETZ! Let Danny cook
  • S_B25
    Doug Emhoff?
    Why is Bill Simmons and the rest of the Ringer so based? You guys are so lame.
  • Former grantland listener
    Doug Emhoff, alleged abuser
    My girlfriend works in domestic violence counseling and when she heard the intro to the latest episode in the car she made me turn it off. Why have such a creep (who also had a confirmed affair with a nanny) who abuses his power to make women feel small? Absolutely awful.

    Stick to the Sport
    I liked these guys for the heated rants they do once in awhile but there are other shows that do a better job with data analysis. The final straw was when they had a political candidate’s spouse on to “talk ball”. Clearly was a stunt one way or another and you think people would learn of this with example after example of pairing politics with sports that this is not what people want. Put your time and money elsewhere.

    The best!
    These guys are hands down my favorite podcast, bar none. They make jokes, do gimmicks, and even talk about football. Keep up the great work guys!
  • FartLicker_69
    Not Informative, but Very Entertaining
    I enjoy this show quite a bit, but frankly the fantasy aspect brings it down a bit. I don’t think their football/fantasy knowledge is strong enough to be a selling point for the show, but at the same that’s not what I’m listening for anyways. These guys are very funny in a podcast genre that tends to lack humor entirely, which is very refreshing to hear. They also do some creative segments and go on fun tangents here and there. If they’d drop the fantasy aspect of the show and just embrace their strengths, I think it would pay off for them!
  • Jezikaya Bramble
    I’m mediocre
    I listen to four podcasts per month, not daily but literally four podcasts a month and you guys are right in the middle, and I cherish it. Love the GOT references
  • Matt Jack015
    Best podcast ever…
    I listen to about 40 different podcasts a week as a cyber engineer(I don’t really work with people), best episodes of my week are always from your show. Thanks!
  • Wallstreet456
    I’m dominating my leagues since listening. Flex!
    Funny show, guys do a great job keeping you updated on players and weekly matchups. Love some of the other items they cover like start or sit, waiver targets, fart or shart, etc. I would love it if the “who’s the bigger A hole” became a regular part of the show.
  • Free Celler
    Less of the picky eater bit.
    I love everything about the show, except for the bit about the pick eater being punished by eating regular food. I wish that part would go away.
  • Smp4osu
    Enjoy the show, but not much FF analysis
    I enjoy listening to this show and find these guys funny but if you’re looking for true fantasy analysis, this probably isn’t the show for you.
  • Pittpanther18
    Entertaining but losing me my season
    These guys are fun and funny, but their predraft analysis was way off on major players. Justin Jefferson is tier 1, as is Saquon. Danny did this with Josh Jacobs too. I’m just done taking their advice. They obviously are right sometimes, but not enough for me to listen anymore. They’ll make you laugh at least, but don’t draft players based on their tiers.
  • PandaWatch!
    Pod of the Year
    Great pod. The guys do an excellent job of balancing helpful fantasy football advice with jokes and content that engage the audience. They also do a great job bringing their listeners into the episode through fan-submitted trivia games and answering emails on the show. They tell inside jokes that long term listeners will catch and enjoy, while not gatekeeping the show to newcomers. I look forward to every episode. Come for the content, stay for the fun.
  • julestompkins
    Totally entertaining and more than adequately informative
    Fantasy nut here. Listened to a lot of dry, info-heavy shows for years. Felt like a chore. This show is the opposite, except these guys *also* know what they’re talking about. Enjoy listening to every single episode.
  • Great game could be greater
    THIS IS NOT A FANTASY PODCAST
    These bozos spend MAYBE 5% giving actual tangible fantasy advice. Otherwise it’s just them sitting around listening to themselves spew dumb commentary while giggling the whole time. It’s incredible. If you want to waste your time listening to randos give commentary on things not related to fantasy, this is for you! But if you want no nonsense fantasy advice, I recommend you check out Fantasy Pros or Fantasy Football Today. These guys are not it.

    Best Out There
    That’s it! That’s the title! Best football podcast out there.
  • ArnoldFang
    Love this show
    Would be so fun and interesting to sit down and have a beer with these guys. Keep up the good work!
  • Ben999f
    I have fun
    There’s only a couple podcasts I look forward to when they pop in my feed — and when ringers fantasy football pod drops I know I’m gonna have a good time for an hour —I love these guys — I trust in their fantasy football knowledge and I have fun with them as well ! Thank you for consistently giving me something to look forward to!
  • Chaloopa12
    Dear Bill
    Ya know when you’re listening to Nora and Steven Ruiz and Ben Solak (rip) and you’re thinking “dang something is missing here.”? The chemistry is what is most important and these guys are leaps and bounds better at managing the flow of a pod because of that. All the other people you employ that talk about grinding tape when they’re like a 5 foot 3 38 year old truly are not what the ringer nfl should be. These guys should be doing the main pod for ringer nfl.

    5 Michelin Stars
    It’s got 5 stars. Can’t argue with that. Shouts out Randy Newman. Pole assassin is in the past, but I’m still a GOAT
  • Chris, Charlotte NC
    Had to get political
    Over an absolute lie at that. Oh well, there are plenty of other shows.
  • Kbs40
    Pick one
    Stick to only fantasy and stop combining with movie themes. Pick one it’s not as cool as you think it is. If you want to do a movie podcast then do that but on a separate feed. I would listen to that. Just not the weird movie/fantasy football combo the past two episodes have done
  • Hayleynilsen
    Horrible episode
    Seriously? Bill needs to clean house. Horrible fantasy football takes from an unwatchable movie. Swing and a miss.
  • Nude collector
    mixed bag
    great content schedule and ways to make each show interesting and unique in its presentation. solid mix of personalities and generally an easy listen. i ignore any show’s email segments, low effort and not in the slightest way interesting. could use less laughing from dk ngl. literally never laughed out loud at this show because it’s not very funny if at all so i’m not sure why dude is losing his mind every episode. definitely a show for more casuals, as there is little actual in depth football talk. these guys clearly just watch the ball on every play but that’s okay simmons does too and i like his content.
  • Fox-33
    Lack of fantasy football
    Episodes seem to really be lacking from real fantasy football analysis of late. Half the episode feels like an comic open mic night. Would love more statistical analysis instead of just going off vibes.
  • Not Tom Selleck
    A great offseason pod
    This show is a mess. DK laughs at everything, which is ironic since nothing funny is ever said. He should consider spending his efforts on having better opinions Heifetz is pedantic jerk who wastes the majority of each episode on complete idiocy. Dude can barely get a complete sentence out. How do you expect him to host a podcast? And Craig loves the smell of his own farts. As an offseason podcast it’s fine because their horrible advice can’t hurt you, so dumb jokes and poor takes are fine with no stakes. As soon as it’s time to draft, literally anyone else would offer better fantasy advice. You know I’m right
  • Jknox8
    Great pod between the tension
    I’ve loved this pod for a while but every few episodes it seems like these guys not-so-subtly hate each other lol
  • Johnp22386
    Laughing
    can we stop the constant uncontrollable laughing at every little thing !
  • VPGSWP
    Decent pod
    Worth listening to, but dudes cackling like 15 year old girls is cringe at times.
  • JUtah31
    Too much fake laughing
    The fantasy content is good, when they finally get around to it. But there’s way too much guffawing over things that aren’t even funny. And the laugh is always in the same cadence: “ah ha! Ha. Ha. Ha.”
  • Big Tuna Stamford Branch
    Extremely Entertaining (Especially in the Offseason)
    By far the most fun and entertaining fantasy football podcast. Moreover, they’ve continued to put out fantastic episodes even after the end of the regular NFL (perhaps even more fun than in-season). Keep up the great work!
  • BigAlF27
    A great show ruined by DK
    I really like Heifitz and Craig, but I can’t with DK. The constant fake laughing, the swearing like a 14 year old, the complete absence of charisma. I had to stop listening to the most recent episode because I didn’t have the patience to put up with him. Last year he went on vacation, and the show was awesome without him. I can’t wait till his next one.
  • FantasyJulio
    Update Rankings!
    Very knowledgeable, pretty funny, work well together. These guys are usually my go to but I feel like they are slacking, only one show per week, forget emails/stories and focus more on Fantasy Football players with all your opinions. And for the love of God will you please update your rankings from May 1!
  • Adam Neidlinger
    Grandpa’s war song
    Please pick the second song. I literally laughed out loud while it played. It is so perfect and fits the segment to a T
  • Podcast Listener 42069
    Awesome time for fantasy football fans
    Great show
  • edjones10
    Mike the headless chicken
    Funniest thing I’ve heard in a long time!
  • Znoopyz
    Exactly the Kind of Podcast I Love
    2 smart guys and Craig Horlbeck having a tangent filled conversation about sports. What’s not to love.
  • Big-Bird-is
    Great if you like to hear 4 guys laugh
    Literally half of the show that I listened to is these guys laughing the whole time. I don’t even know what they’re laughing about. I don’t know if this is a professional show or a bunch of college kids goofing off. I gave it two stars because at least there is some football talk involved.
  • 22danny1579
    SUV
    I agree with the majority on the SUV argument, it is not very hard to understand.
  • thebachelormemes
    avoid
    hosts talking over each other, incessantly laughing at their own jokes, meaningless questions and random tangents.
  • Matt_B_W
    Bros lovin’ bros
    If you want bros broin’ down who can’t believe how funny they are, dude, then bro down with these bro, dude.
  • Yeshaiya
    Losers
    These guys are why no one respects the ringer. A bunch of losers who know basically nothing, trashing guys all pros, all time great coaches and other people who have forgotten more about football than these guys will ever know.
  • Nico030698
    The most bizzarly immersive draft/fantasy experience
    Come to hear about the draft and fantasy football… stay because you feel like you’re sitting around a case of beer with your buddies spewing tangential nonsense about sports and other topics. This podcast is a truly bizarre experience and has the power to put me in the headspace of drunken football arguments with friends whilst my body is sitting in the office on a Tuesday at 10 am. 10/10 would recommend
