Dunny Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Does one exist? If so, could I be pointed in that direction? If not, that's kinda weird. Could be an opportunity there!
Phil Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 A few, yes. Bantering the Blueshirts Blueshirts Breakaway And Kevin Delury just started one called Go Rangers Radio Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk
RangersIn7 Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Does one exist? If so, could I be pointed in that direction? If not, that's kinda weird. Could be an opportunity there! Blueshirts Breakaway is very good They do a weekly show that gets posted/released every Monday or Tuesday. Generally have very good guests and they do a nice job
Dunny Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 Thanks guys, I'll check them out. The Athletic does a fantastic Jays podcast, shame they don't do one for the Rangers.
Phil Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 IMO Breakaway is right up your alley. I think you'll enjoy it the most.
Future Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Thanks guys, I'll check them out. The Athletic does a fantastic Jays podcast, shame they don't do one for the Rangers. +1 on Breakaway It's shocking to me how bad The Athletic's Rangers page is.
Dunny Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 Carpinello is the basic beat guy, and that's fine, whatever. Shayna is the obligatory female contributer, which is also fine, could do worse. But they're missing that 3rd piece. The first two are set up the same as a MLB team Athletic page, (Standard beat dude, female secondary) but even the Jays have a 3rd content driver, who is a full blown Marxist, (Andrew Stoeten) but I don't care because his content is brilliant. The podcasts, the deep dives in to the farm, etc. Just seems like they've cheaped out a bit on the NHL side.

Carp doesn't seem to know how to write anything of substance, and Shayna is so substance-heavy that it's boring.
Dunny Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 Good period? Good period? Good period? Good period? Good period? Good period?
Ozzy Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 Said no one, ever. In my best Chadwick..... Phil: The People's "Cherse" ;)
Dunny Posted October 2, 2019 Author Posted October 2, 2019 Mieh, latest was OK, and I'll certainly keep listening, but some of it was hard to get through. Shayna was on, and I'm with her on some stuff, but not much. It sounded like three kids, really. Fawning over Josh Ho-Sang is just a bad take. I sometimes wonder if people realize the game is played in two directions, but whatever. Liked the Greg (?) guy.
ThirtyONE Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 Podcasters would do well to skip the personal anecdotes.

Everyone doing Rangers-centric podcasting is under 30, or barely over it.
Dunny Posted October 8, 2019 Author Posted October 8, 2019 It is three kids. Everyone doing Rangers-centric podcasting is under 30, or barely over it. OK, I didn't realize this is the Kakko superfan guy. That's pretty cringey. Also, they're now part of The Athletic. Good for them.
Phil Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Yeah, that's really awesome (the Athletic thing). The Church of Kakko thing is really funny to me.
Pete Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 Gave Breakaway a chance. It's pretty decent but they can probably cut the length in half if they stopped beating points to death and repeating themselves. The Kakko thing is cringe worthy.
Dunny Posted October 29, 2019 Author Posted October 29, 2019 Listening again this week, and I'll be back next week, but this fucking terrible stuff lol. There's definitely room for a halfway smart Ranger podcast out there.

Phil Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 I listened, and honestly, retained nothing. It was pure background noise today.
Pete Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 I might start posting some of their woeful commentary here, just for discussion.
