Basically 0 content and just an exhausting amount of ad after ad after ad. Actually cringe what podcasting has become today.
Bonahahah

Lakers talk
I tried to watch with Colin out & it is just not watchable. Jmac only talks lecrybaby & lakers. Come on & give us a break. We are over him & the lakers. Please reevaluate the talent before football season starts.

J Mac
Second worst substitute. C&R actually worse.
Only listen to Best of⊠so donât get stuck with Herd Line News.
J Mac horrible.
PuPu platters and Menâs League hoops.
What a douche!

Want just Cowherd
Was forced to unsubscribe due to my podcast feed being littered with all the other âvolumeâ pods I subbed to this pod and if I want the others Iâll sub them too. Iâm ok with a preview here and there but I was having to delete up to 20 other pods a week so was forced to unsubscribe to Colin entirely.

Changes Needed
Colin is great. Vibe between he and JMac seems to be deterioration fast. Show is unwatchable when JMac fills in for Colin and Alex Curry is a disaster. Please reevaluate talent. Lots of room for improvement.

50% commercials
Bad takes and 50% commercials. Just insane. Average commercial is 5 mins longâŠJason tymph is trying to become the new Colin and heâs awful too.

Stat guy and yes man
Colin Cowherdâs command of sports culture is alarmingly shallow. Yes, he can recite ratings, rules, and box-score triviaâbut the nuance, passion, and lived realities that ignite competition are entirely lost on him. His reflexive dismissal of small-market franchises and lower-seeded programs exposes a ratings-obsessed worldview that reduces sport to a predictable spreadsheet exercise.
By championing only the âblue-bloods,â he betrays the very essence of athletic drama: uncertainty, upset, and the improbable rise of underdogs. The magic of a 15-seed storming the Sweet 16 is precisely what sustains the NCAA Tournament; Cowherdâs inabilityâor unwillingnessâto comprehend that suggests heâs either never played a meaningful minute in any sport or heâs parroting talking points to maintain studio harmony.
His continued incredulity over Brock Purdyâs successârooted solely in draft positionâunderscores the problem: when results defy his preconceived narratives, he falters. For anyone who has ever been underestimated, Cowherdâs commentary doesnât analyze; it condescends.
He earns a solitary commendation for occasionally acknowledging his misfires, but those half-hearted mea culpas canât salvage an oeuvre of intellectually bankrupt takes. In short, expect volume over value. Skip this show and invest your time with analysts who respect the full spectrum of sport.

Hoops tonight
Really enjoy the in-depth analysis of the games and future matchups. Also like that Jason is answering viewers questions.

Not as good as it used to be
I used to watch The Herd almost every day and I enjoyed the show. However, in recent months, the quality of the show has dropped. Old materials have been recycled in the show. Colin also picked the wrong cohost. Jason might be a great guy, but if he wants to make it big as a sportscaster, he needs to take some acting classes and some voice classes. Acting classes will fix his strange facial expression and not to stare into the camera with the deer in headlight look. Voice classes will fix his high pitch voice. Personally, I believe Joy would have been a much better cohost and successor. I enjoy watching the Speaks show more than The Herd.

Love Colin, been a fan of his work a long time. A little less LA teamâs homer would be nice.

Colin is the Best
Love Colinâs sports topics of discussion. Keeps you informed and whatâs important in the world of football and basketball.

stop with all the other podcasts
itâs so frustrating to have to filter through all these other garbage podcasts, launch those on their own channel
jimbobourbon
Itâs the Herd not the Volume
Come on⊠make a volume album and put these other garbage pods on that album. This is the Herd. Keep it the Herd. Been listening for a decade but this feels like shove stuff down your throat and itâs turning me off

Colinâs gone Trump sympathizer. Iâm out.
Iâve been listening to Colin since the âSportsnationâ days, Iâm 28, so thatâs more than half my life. Heâs been going towards Trump sympathy the last couple months with quipes, but after todayâs defense of the man ripping this country apart, Iâm out. Thank you for the good yearsđ€đ»

Colin is great âŠBUT
Middlecauf needs to do research. Comparing Archâs arm to Sheduers? Stop
Also donât let Camino and Rich guest host.
Jmac is great

Donât always agree but solid.
I like listening to Colin because I donât always agree with him but he makes arguments I find interesting. Only reason I donât give a 5 star review is because of McIntyre. horrible opinions. Yesterday stated Nuggets would be swept, not an educated opinion just a worthless biased opinion.

The Herd is Great
Iâve been listening to Colin for close to two decades. His show is great and the podcast was one of the first I ever subscribed to.
Now that the channel has been diluted by including a bunch of subpar content from other hosts I have to filter through a bunch of garbage to get to the actual show I subscribe to.
If I want to listen to Draymond I will subscribe to his show. NOBODY wants to listen to Covino and Rich.
Get these hacks off my feed so I can continue subscribing to one of the best sports shows, period!

Simply the best
Colin is simply the best in the business. He makes great arguments. Right or wrong you respect his intellect and his point of view. On top that, he effortlessly blend in real life and societal references into the world of sport. I have been listening to him for over 20 years and all I can say is thank you Colin. Well done Sir!

The Weatherman of Sports
Youâve been saying Shedeur Sanders is a reach for the first round. Saying teams like PIT who may draft him at 21 are going to make a mistake by âreachingâ and taking him.
Now you think a few days later that the NYG takes him at 3 overall and now say heâs âa starâ???
Between very surface level takes and having J-Whack fill in for you & co-host idk how you have a show. Soooo many other sports news hosts around the country have earned the privilege to take your job, earn your salary, and be much better than you at it.

Itâs called w/ Colin Cowherd
If Colinâs not there, donât try to replace him. Everything is great until itâs The Herd without Colin Cowherd. Just play reruns.

Lost edge and seems distracted
He is on vacation all the time and he has lost his edge. I used to listen every day. His takes have become milder and less controversial. He isnât as bold as he used to be. Feels very corporate and establishment. Like a comedian that is rich and isnât as funny anymore. You can tell he isnât into it like he used to be.

Colin > Scully

Shallow takes central
The takes on this show are incredibly shallow. He constantly criticizes Carmelo and D-Rose for no reason, yet somehow praises Sam Darnoldâit makes no sense. And why does Draymond keep getting a platform? I go out of my way to avoid listening to him, but just like Blueface, his opinions and drama are forced on me. This is some of the worst entertainment out there. Colin, you used to be great, but now listening to you is painful.

Favorite sports podcast
I started listening to Colin when I was mowing the lawn growing up. Back when he was live from 9-12 EST on ESPN. Been a giant fan ever since. Donât miss an episode

Unsubscribed bc of the extras
Love Colin! 10 yr listener. But Iâm out on the 10 extra podcasts that I get every day that I donât want. I want a pizza. I donât want a pizza with chicken nuggets, Pepsi, cereal and Caesar salad all thrown on top of it. Too much!

Hoops tonight is great
One of the best analysis of plays and teams I have ever heard on the Internet.

I listen every day
Great show! Colin is my favorite sports show host. I learn not only about sports but about business and only areas of life as well. I always enjoy it.
Update: Three episodes a day of Covino and Rich only pisses me off. Itâs overkill for a show Iâm not here for. Stop doing that and Iâll go back to five stars. One a week to support another show is one thingâŠthree a day is absurd. I will never listen to them

Gottlieb is not Herd material
Doug is dull and opinionated but without the facts. Just go back to the Best Of interviews.

Love the show hate the other shows in feed
I absolutely love this show, but Iâm really sick and tired of getting Covino and Rich thrown down my throat and my esophagus with no water to go down please stop chatting with no talent having people they know nothing about sports on the same feed Iâm really sick and tired of having to clear out my menu. Iâm just close to stopping the roof to Collin altogether thatâs how bad and annoying Rick and Covino and all the other stupid show that I donât want in my Steve

Love Colin, hate spam
Very annoying to get shows I didnât sign up for in my feed, especially when they are as aggressively unappealing as Covino and Rich

Too many shows in the feed
No interest in any of them.

Fun sports analyst
Iâve been listening to Colin for 10 years now. Iâve been loving this format for the last seven. Creative and unique takes on all sports I love, and doesnât waste time with things that donât matter. Hits all the talking points that I personally care about. Keep it up Colin. I know you donât know me, but it oddly feels like I do you. Also, who cares what everybody says about Jay Mack. You too me well. He keeps you young, and you provide the wisdom he needs đ Keep on keeping on.

Please Break Up the Streams
I like the Herd but Iâm losing patience with having to clear out a growing list of shows that are part of the same stream.
I know the intended affect is to make us listen to their other shows, but instead itâs making me want to quit completely.

I love the herd
I love the herd because of the way he describes everything and the way the show is run Jmac is the best cohost in years.
Hahahahhawhahhwhahahahawhh
Enough
Please take Covina and Rick out of my feed. Stop shoving these no talents down my throat!

Ads and Jmac
Love Colin but bro starts his podcast with like 5 minutes of ads, also can you please get a new cohost JMac knows nothing about football

âOh, by the wayâ
I titled this as I did because, âoh by the wayâ, EVERY sports media person is using this phrase now, including Colin. It is interesting to me how phrases are used and then become virally used by everyone. âOh, by the wayâ, you can be different and not a victim of media catch phrases.
I am a Broncos fan, have been since 1977, and I listen to lots of sports podcasts, including Colin. I agree with many who arenât fond of J-Mac as he is so biased toward, what he deems are âstarsâ, and not those athletes who just grind it out whether they are publicly known or not. Ironic his favorite star loaded team, the Jets, are such a failure. I guess having stars on a team isnât always very important. Maybe open your mind up a bit, J-Mac. I agree, I miss Joy hugely and wonât listen to The Herd if Colin is taking a break.
With all the teams and all the stories, I think Colin and his team (I assume he has a team) does a fabulous job of researching daily events and keeping up on it. Not an easy task. And to do spontaneous shows when something sports worthy happens is huge dedication. And I like your format as I often read the summary and may skip a segment if the topic doesnât interest me. I have no problem with ads, I listening for free and ads are what allows me to do so so that you, and your show, make an income. âOh, by the wayâ, for those complaining about ads, you can skip through them with any podcast app.
Thanks, Colin!

Colin Cowherd Is The Heir
The Herd is the new best sports show IMO ever since Shannon left Undisputed. Iâm not glued to every episode like I was Undisputed but this is my new GO-TO and Colin never lets me down. He brings on some good guests like Mark Sanchez and Hasselbeck who bring great opinions based on their expertise as former players. Nothing against Nick Wright but I skip those whole segments bc I dont understand why I should listen. Great stuff I listen to the full shows at least 3 of them a week via podcast
