I can’t stand his analysis. He’s annoying on all the platforms he’s on and it’s unfortunate that he has to be on this show once a week.

More Lenny, less Ben, please

As long as Ben Solak isn’t on an episode it’s a 5 star. I can’t listen to him talk over Mina anymore. Will have to skip those episodes moving forward.

Love the show. Long time listener. Also a corgi lover and corgi owner. You may have read out Lenny’s Dog DNA test in the past but I can’t recall. The GQ pictures that came out with Lenny standing on his hind legs got me thinking, does he have any corgi in him?

The quality of the pod has taken a massive hit this year. No one wants to hear young sheldon speak into a microphone every week

Certainly espn’s best nfl pod and among the best of all nfl pods

I love love LOVE Mina. She’s so smart about football, it’s amazing. I wish she would explain some things more simply for us slow kids in the back of the class. I’m a newer fan and I don’t know a lot of the terms she throws around. But then again, I know it’s not a podcast for newbies. My only other request is that she SLOW DOWN. She speaks quite quickly and the guy that is often on is even worse. His words slur together so frequently that, even when I’m listening on .8 speed, I can’t understand him.

Hello Mina like many other espn people when will we be able to get a Mina kimes card?

I love Mina , very knowledgeable! Love her on First Take, and NFL Live

I love Mina & the show, but Ben is too loud. Not just sometimes either.

Mina is great but I’ll never forgive ESPN for inflicting Ben Solak on us

See Title for description

Truly the best NFL podcaster and a renaissance women. Generally guests are great, esp Foxworth. Solak is a bit much sometimes. And Mina never has other women as guests. But 5* nonetheless!

Mina is great. She sometimes talks too fast. If Ben Soak is a guest again, I’ll delete the episode. He is too loud, and talks even faster than Mina. It is not a speed talking contest. Glad to see the swearing has decreased; it adds no value to the show.

I’ve been a listener for several years. Maybe since the first year. I’m a huge fan of the show. Some constructive criticism - if Solak is going to be a permanent fixture of the show, please please please dial it down a bit. It’s too much yelling. He talks too fast. Sometimes he ramps up too much and sounds like a cartoon chicken. I prefer when the show is conversational, not performative like First Take. I recently turned an episode off for the first time because of how grating he was.

Domonique and Mina breaking down games always teaches me something. And I love the long-form weekly previews with Ben Solak. The other guests are good too, but I would be perfectly happy if it was always Mina and Ben. Specifically, I love how much detail they go into on every player on the line, in the secondary, the scheme, and more. Those previews are almost 2 hours right now. They could be 4 hours and I’d listen to every minute of it every week. I‘ve been looking for a podcast that’ll tell me more than just what’s going on with the QB or skill players, and I think I’ve finally found it. I listen to every episode and would gladly listen to more.

Mina, Solak and Dominique are a pleasure to hear. Solak’s enthusiasm is great.

I enjoy Mina. I enjoy Ben Solak. I have enjoyed Dominique for years. All 3 are great. No reason for this pod to fall off in quality like it has. Player interviews are garbage content, Mina. You know this. Do not let ESPN or Omaha homogenize a once-detailed show.

Long time fan of the pod and the football mind of Mina. One note: Ben Solak - bro, stop interrupting your host. I get it you’re jacked up on football talk but let Mina make her points and keep the flow. I don’t man, I like your takes but dial it back a notch.

She’s absolutely entertaining and hilarious. Seeing where Mina started years ago when I first heard her filling in as a host and or guest on the Le Batard show w/ Stugotz to where she has risen now is truly an amazing journey and well deserved for her. If you have any issues with Mina or her content, I’m telling you that it’s 100% a you issue and you should really reevaluate choices in life

Mina has always been awesome, love that the show strikes a good balance between in depth content without being too much every week. Would love more Dominique and less of the super fast talking yelling guy

Mina’s great but the show has lost its pizazz in recent years. Used to be super fun and unique! But now it’s just like every other football pod out there

this is a great show. it’s super informative and i can easily say i get really good insight on a lot of teams i wouldn’t normally follow. lastly and most definitely not least, big fan of the lenny puns to start every show

Great football analysis. If this show would pick games against the spread on the Thursday show it would be perfect. Obviously people are going to pick a -9.5 favorite to win outright, that's not really helpful information

This is one of my favorite NFL podcasts. It’s always funny and interesting. The guests are awesome and the NFL information is very accurate. Thanks for the great show Mina!

Favorite NFL podcast

^^

I love this show! The perfect mix of football knowledge and personality.

As a Panthers fan, I enjoyed the all games review, so would vote keep!

Mina and Solak all day every day. Deep dive every game. 4 hours, I don’t care. I’m a stay at hime dad I’ll listen no matter how long. Go Bills

Mina is one of the best & brightest people in American media, period — not just sports media. (She told Bomani Jones she doesn’t even bother with the NYT crossword puzzle until near the end of the week, for Pete’s sake.) And “Benny Soles,” as Philly’s own Sheil Kapadia refers to him, is the youngest rising star in the crowded world of NFL coverage. Ben was even mentioned by the legendary Peter King, in his retirement sign-off statement. Putting these two lightning-fast thinkers & talkers together, is a recipe for entertaining & insightful podcasting, in America’s favorite sport. You’ll learn a lot while you can’t help but smile, as Ben’s voice crescendos & Lenny makes an occasional appearance — so you don’t want to miss it.

Mina is awesome. Her co-host is infuriatingly bad.

go look at her salary, and the former PROFESSIONAL PRO BOWL NFL PLAYERS that have been let go by espn analysts…..but they keep this lady as lead analyst? Lol F Disney

Ollie is the best and his chemistry with Mina is always great—more Mr. Connolly more frequently please!

Love my sister from 🇰🇷

Great podcast. I don’t listen to espn as much anymore but this particular show focuses on the product of the game

On ANY and ALL shows he is producing and/or hosting on

Mina is one of the most talented, well-spoken, intelligent, funny, and charming people in sports media. So it makes me sad to say this show is pretty hard to listen to at times, because it’s so laser-focused on nfl breakdowns (which are admittedly among the best around) that Mina and her guests often forget to bring humor and make this show entertaining. I’d love if more humor, silliness, personal tangents and nonsense were mixed in, or it would be great to bring back some kind of segment that facilitates this, like the old five questions. This absolutely comes from a place of love! I really want this show to be great and one I look forward to, but as is it feels like not leaning into this is a waste (or at least misutilization) of Mina’s talent in that respect.

If you’ve come across a better piece of NFL related media, it was probably a documentary, a book, or a limited run show. But for a show that airs once or twice a week, year round, Mina Kimes is the top of the mountain. Knowledgeable enough that it never feels like the hot take fluff you see on TV, entertaining enough that it’s not putting you to sleep

Love this show and Mina. She can do no wrong in my eyes 🙂

A dumb down take on sports for idiots who never played or watched film in their life. This show is everything that's wrong with ESPN today. Terrible content

The best in the industry. Smart, funny, knows ball. Thank you for your work

Loved this week’s episode.

Love this podcast … Apologies but please never invite Dan Pizzuta on again, this is the first podcast I had to turn off … a lot of verbal vomit and doesn’t let anyone else speak … and his analyst is like a talking computer … we can look up the stats

Love this podcast! But, whoa! Dan Pizzuta has to be the hardest grader ever…. A C++ for the Saquon deal to the Eagles?! Really…. And this, after you both essentially talked about how this could be something special. I swear I could hear Lenny growling there! Great podcast, though!

I’ve never written a podcast review but after she just nailed the Dave Canales to the Panthers call before it happened, I feel more compelled than ever. She speaks with confidence, doesn’t take herself or this silly game we all love too seriously, and demonstrates her brilliance consistently. She’s one of the best commentators to ever do it. Listen to her.

This is my go-to NFL commentary show. Mina is both knowledgeable and fun to listen to. Her guests are great. Love Lenny and Dominique. One issue: is it woof or wolf?

I watched her on NFL Live while I was in prison. Now that I’m out I listen to this pod at work. Life is impoverished without Mina!

A+, top tier certified ball knower. she’s a beast, love all her content

Also, as an opener “the only podcast where one of the cohosts thinks all ‘ruff-ness’ is necessary.”
