  • dylanwouldgo
    Great storytelling
    This pod is great when you just want to relax and hear great stories from some of sport’s biggest icons. Andy hits them with topics and let’s the guest take the listeners on s journey. Also...Andy, continue showing guests pictures you shot from their career. I always liked hearing their reaction when they see a certain image. It always seemed to take them back to that moment and it’s good to hear the backstory on that particular photo. Great podcast!

    Metta podcast and autographed picture
    This is awesome My first time listening and I loved it! Great to hear Metta and Andrew. I will be listening from now on for sure!
  • Bryant, Kobe
    MWP on an MVP podcast
    Wonderful and insightful podcast. Listening to Metta’s interview is one thing, but having a lengthy, open dialogue with him really opens eyes. I hope he’s a reoccurring guest as this was really well done.

    Awesome behind the scene stories
    It’s like i am taking an NBA/Sports History class. Love listening to all the Legends in the Sports Industry, including the great Andrew Bernstein in episode 3. If your stuck in LA traffic, this is the perfect podcast for all you sports fans. Get educated while listening to all of the A-list athletes and the influencers in the sports industry. Learn from the best, be the best! Thanks Andrew~

  • SportsFan S
    Love it!
    Huge fan of Andrew Bernstein's work, and was thrilled to see that he had a podcast. Absolutely loved the first episode and can't wait to hear more of his interviews!
  • RICK OTTO
    Well Done
    I have been an admire of Andy Bernstein’s work long before I knew who he was. The photographer of some of the most iconic sports images of all time. He has been looming across NBA sidelines for years. Always behind the scenes documenting each moment. This podcast for me was an extension of that. Andy interviews and listens as Bill Walton regales us on health issues, his love of the NBA, John Wooden, and so much more. If each week is as good as this one, we may forget Andy was ever a photographer and remember him for hosting an inspiring podcast. Thank you Rick Los Angeles.
