Amazing to think we are headed into year 8!?! Of my ALL-TIME favorite podcast.. Both yourself, and good ol’ “prickly pear” Thom’ 🤣 bring me so much joy as I work my overnight shift. Quick aside, my favorite all-time moment as silly as it sounds, over my 30 year lifetime of Washington Redskins football fandom is watching Thom’s son.. Colt McCoy 🤣 run in that QB draw in for the TD to keep things “interesting” in that infamous 2014 Skins’-Cowboys game.. thanks for all the laughs over the years, it would be a real pleasure to some day share a beer with each of you at Shelly’s Back Room.

I like the show; go to twice a week. Kevin, your analysis and institutional knowledge is great. Too much on your dislike of “Commanders” Brian Fredericksburg Grew up in PG CT

Wizards mount Rushmore and you don't include the best player to ever wear the jersey? Some people consider Michael Jordan the best player ever period. Do some research next time sheesh.

Kevin’s offers intelligent analysis of all DC sports, tho primarily the Skins. Great format, great discussions and guests. And, Loverro!

Kevin, about Chris Rodriguez, you had Scott McCloughan on your show a couple years ago and asked him something to the affect of which player he liked from the draft in which Chris was drafted. He said Chris was the only player he would see still on an NFL roster in 10 years… something like that. Do you remember this? You haven’t brought it up in the last year and a half as Rodriquez has been showing out. I thought it was worth mentioning. Also, I’m all in on Jacoby Croskey Stills and Nash as our day 1 starter. Love the show

Love the podcast, especially when Tommy and Cooley are on. Despite giving a 5 star review, I do have one critique. A while ago you got on someone about how to pronounce strength and length and how the g is silent. According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, both pronunciations, with and without the g sound, are acceptable. Only difference is, one is much more annoying to listen to than the other. I’ll let you decide which one that is. Keep up the good work and remember it’s okay to pronounce those g’s!

Best Washington football coverage there is! Kevin needs to watch the wire and Thom needs to watch GOT

5 star

I would just like to reiterate my support of Kevin and everything he does here. This podcast is superlative.

Best sports podcast show - don’t miss an episode ever

What used to be a good show is unbearable to listen to every time he brings up the old name…which is frequent and often biased.

Whenever Kevin says, “Let’s move on, nobody cares about this,” he’s wrong! Kevin - it’s JULY! That’s all we care about (at least until September)! Whether it’s Thommie’s fight with his neighbor over the appropriate place for packages, Kevin’s foray into mushrooms, Thommie’s graphic eye procedure, or the weather in Powell, Wyoming, keep it coming! The only reason I listen when the otherwise biggest “news” is a Truth Social post, is to hear the banter between two men that have been part of my life since I was a teenager (I’m now 37). P.S. Did you see Jahmir Young dropped 40 in the NBA Summer League? Looks like Toronto finally found their star! (that’s trolling) P.P.S. Watch The Wire! How you have time to watch a documentary on a 1960s pin up girl but not a single episode of one of the greatest shows of all time based in your home state is mind boggling!

Living out of town, there is no better podcast to stay up to date on all things DC sports. It would be nice if Kevin would admit that Andy’s wife was correct many years ago that Turgeon wasn’t the guy (this is Andy’s son 🤣). Keep up the great work!

Absolutely love the podcast—smart, funny, and always a great listen. The stories, chemistry, and insights are consistently top-notch. Would love to hear more from Thom, especially about the legendary bad taste some of those old radio bosses had when picking holiday party restaurants. That deserves a full segment. Keep it coming

Love your show Kevin! I no longer live in the area however will be a DC sports fan till the bitter end! I especially enjoyed the guest you had on this week! Good stuff! Your knowledge and passion for our sports teams are 2nd to none only surpassed by your INCREDIBLE memory! You’re the best! I also enjoy the conversations and debates between you and Thom! Keep up the good work and I/we (your devoted followers) will keep listening! All the best! #skins #ALLCAPS

Chris Cooley gives this 5 stars. Kevin and Thom are great, but Cooley is the best. I’ll follow him if he ever left. No Cooley as he is busy coaching so this drops to 4 stars. I will not listen until he is on again. Kevin and Thom are still good, but other WFT podcasts are better. Also, way too much time spent on the old racist name. I didn’t think it was racist when I was a kid, but once I stepped away from it as MY team’s name. It clearly is not PC. Stop trying to bring it back. Commanders is a terrible name, but because it is dumb not because it is racially insensitive.

I like this guy and he gets the news right!

Fantastic show if you follow DC sports. Kevin always has inside nuggets and interesting takes on the topic of the day.

Kevin has kept me fully connected to my beloved Skins when I lived in the DMV and for the +12 years since I left the area. You, Tom, Cooley, Doc, and all your guests make it a can’t miss listen. Excellent job Kevin!!

Thanks so much Kevin. Love the guests (Tommy and Cooley in particular). Live in Boulder now but this podcast keeps me close to Virginia for at least an hour each day!

The top pick in the podcast rotation, Kevin is the best. Love the guests, especially Tuesday’s and Thursday’s with Thom. I got nothing else for you boss.

Not as always as objective as he tries to be but great in-depth coverage of all DC sports with the exception on Caps, and Mystics (it’s for the best) and too much basketball for me but I know that subjective. Thanks Kevin

Kevin, I love the podcast! I love your down-to-earth takes, your passion for DC sports and was especially impressed with how you held court at the 106.7 the Fan vs. Team 980 event in Feb 2024. I hadn’t really listened until 2020 but thought your raw stances on some of the buffoonery that was going on in Ron’s first year was so refreshing and hilarious (mixed messages, changed expectations, Haskins at the Club, to name a few). Specifically, when you, Cooley, Thom, or whoever your guests were got a little “explicit” in your collective frustrations, I was laughing out loud. You do a great job as a host, a facilitator, an interviewer, a guest on other shows, and the list goes on! As a lover of the NFL, I have noticed that teams are referred to affectionately by their fanbases as plenty of things. Some are shortened versions of the team nickname, some are a unique take on the team nickname, and some are just tangentially related to the team nickname. For example, some that are shortened: the Pats, Them Boys, the Jags, the Bucs, etc. Some that are unique takes: go Pack go, Bills Mafia, raider nation, etc. Which leaves me to the tangentially related: the Bolts (chargers), the birds (eagles), the flock (ravens), the dirty birds (falcons), monsters of the midway (the bears), the Dawg Pound (browns), Big Blue (giants). With that said, since Manders and Coms and Commies and Cs all stink, why on earth can’t we start an initiative to informally call the commanders “THE SKINS”?! Not in secret either but as our unofficial nickname to the nickname. Shouted at games, on the street, etc. These things start with the fans anyway. So, start it up for us! On the airwaves on 980, call them “the skins” constantly and it can spread to other 980 hosts, hosts on The Fan, and in 9 months, we all are calling them “The Skins” as our term from those in the know; the “in crowd.” The team may even follow in suit with hashtags of “skins”, broadcasts may say “skins”, and the actual nickname will stay Commanders and be used, as well. Redskins will never come back and shouldn’t anyway (look at the history of why it was even the redskins; blame Boston, poor football attendance, and the passion for the RED Sox). But “skins” is harmless, its ours, and can be like the “Birds” is to the Eagles! Keep up the great work! And as Doc says when evoking Coach Thompson, “You are simply.. one of the best!”

Love your show Kevin especially when you are discussing the Redskins. You are very pleasant to listen to. Great voice and quality content. Go skins!

Kevin, Like many, I love the show, and I particularly love it when you and Thom are together and you discuss history. With our (the Skins) fanbase as tormented as it has been, I think it's important for all of us (younger and older) to learn about/reflect back on good times and greatness. Since this is the slowest time of year on the sports calendar, I went to YouTube and came across the 1986 NFC Divisional Playoff game when the Skins visited Chicago. You've often mentioned (and I agree) that the 1990 NFC Wild Card win in Philadelphia was one of the most satisfying wins in franchise history. But what are Coach Joe's greatest coaching jobs for single games? That would be one of them. I'd argue that another that is sooooo often overlooked is the 1986 NFC Divisional Playoff win at Soldier Field, when, with Jay Schroeder at QB, the Skins knocked off the defending Super Bowl champion Bears, who were basically all intact from the dominant '85 team (with the large exception of Buddy Ryan calling the defense). Although Doug Flutie was at QB instead of Jim McMahon, it was still a game not many believed the Skins would win. Many cite the following year’s win in the bitter cold with Doug Williams and Darrell Green’s heroics, but the ‘86 (January ‘87) win was just as impressive, if not more. Although they lost the next week at the Meadowlands, it was a tremendously satisfying win, Walter Payton's final game, and I wonder what you and Thommy's Top 5 all-time Gibbs coaching performances (single games) would be. It's such a hard list to comprise since such a great coach and man had so many big wins. Thanks for delivering such great content to those of us who are fans of the city and area's teams.

Great analysis and content on a wide range of NFL and other sports topics.

Fantastic WFT source for news and entertainment. Listen to every episode!

Great football analysis and interesting stories on a wide range of topics. Kevin is the best sports personality in the DMV.

Coach, please keep up the great work. Thoroughly enjoy you and Thom and I’ve matured to the point that I don’t scream whenever you mention you know who!

To end the game in one point is 100 % won’t happen. Even in madden video game it was impossible. Love the show 5 ⭐️

Hey Kevin, Big fan of the show and big skins fan from Texas! Love Thom Tuesdays and Thursdays. Who’s your Redskins Mt Rushmore in the 21st Century? I have London Fletcher, Trent Williams, Ryan Kerrigan, and Santana Moss. I wanted to put JD5 on there already but one more season like last year will have him on there.

Yours is one of only two podcasts I listen to daily. Keep up the great work. Will look for Thom at a Frederick Flying Cows game in the near future.

I’m sorry to hear about your surgery wishing you a speedy recovery. Take it easy and listen to the doctors I just had a knee replacement and I thought I would be back at work like a few days later but they were right

Well Saudi is good but your number 1 in Kuwait! Also I’m not even American. I just love my Redskins. So now real talk. If you do Madrid, we have to do an international get together with you and Tommy! Lots of love from Kuwait

Kevin Sheehan is a DC Sports legend! His show is a must listen for every Redskins / Commanders fan!

Easily the best sports pod in the DC area. A must listen for Redskins/Commanders talk anywhere in the country. Loaded with top-flight guests and endless insightful commentary. 5 stars.

My friend turned me onto Kevin’s show. It’s so good! Great insights

I am a 30-year-old die-hard Skins fan who has listened to Kevin for decades now. Whether it was tuning in to his pre/post-game coverage on the way to or from FedEx, the ESPN980 app, or now the podcast, Kevin has always been excellent and rational in his thoughts pertaining to this team. Hand up, Kevin—I’ll admit I was firmly in the “get on board or get out” crew and would always find myself shocked that you weren’t as optimistic as I was (a naive teenager/young adult) about acquisitions like Donovan McNabb, Adam Archuleta, Brandon Lloyd, etc. In my defense, at that age, it’s hard to understand just how critical competent, drama-free ownership is. You did a phenomenal job putting that into perspective. As I matured, you helped me realized that nothing positive would happen regarding this team until he was no longer the owner. My Sundays became a weekly comedy: What opponent will they lose to by 35 at home in a half-empty stadium this week? Who from the front office will be accused of sexual harassment this time? Will the FBI raid our football facility today? Will sewage pour onto our fans during this game? What flashy acquisition will they make this week that will inevitably fail miserably—Jason Taylor? Carson Wentz? Haynesworth? #WinningOffTheField When the bombshell broke that he was exploring the possibility of selling, your coverage throughout was excellent. I could sense the rejuvenation and passion in your podcast. And although I still watched every game since 2001, I finally considered myself “back.” I still get chills from the passionate rant you went on, pleading for our team back and calling out Dan for holding us hostage for decades. This year was special in the fact that you were able to focus on just football—and what a spectacular season we had. It’s crazy to think that’s how it should have and could have been all these years. I’m happy my sons won’t have to suffer what I went through, and I’m fired up for what’s ahead. Keep up the great work, my friend, and thank you for always bringing it strong. P.S I wish Cooley was on more!

Kevin - I never write to the podcast, although I listen everyday, but I stopped by the radio show recently and it seems the fan base is growing impatient with Adam Peters’ performance in the draft. I did some research and it turns out he hasn’t put together a roster that reached the playoffs since Jayden Daniels’ first season in Washington. Interested in your thoughts. Thanks for the great work! Mark

Kevin / Thom...On the 4/30/2025 show you missed the lead story: Thom was WRONG all along on the stadium site.... love the show keep it going. Need to make Thom aware when he's wrong

Kev 5 stars as always. All signs are pointing to getting our team back in the district. But, I have to think though will Mr. Purify have a strong opinion pushing back on this great news, as his opinion all along has been Landover has been the path of least resistance? Maybe Thom will harken the words of Kool & The Gang and have a celebration for this news!

Kevin keeps the flame alive for us Skins traditionalists. Not that we don’t like some innovation — but Kevin more than almost anyone understands the history and heart and soul of our team and its history!

I subscribe to over 100 podcasts but actually listen to each of Kevin's. Extra points on Tuesday and Thursday when my favorite curmudgeon Thom is on.

The Snyder era finally got me, along with the name change. I left the fanbase and wasn’t planning to come back. But now with new ownership and the success of 2024, I’m back home. And while those are main factors, one of the biggest has to be that I missed listening to Kevin’s podcast everyday. As someone who tried to be a fan of another team, trust me when I say it’s hard to find the analysis and charisma that Kevin brings to sports talk. I dearly missed listening to him and Thom Loverro talking sports and about anything and everything, and now that I’m back to regularly listening (I tuned in for the smell test still) it feels like my sports fandom is complete once again. Thank you Kevin for helping to bring me back to my Washington Football fandom. It’s not the same with the new name, it likely never will be, but at least we have a legitimate football team to talk about now, win or lose.

More Thom!!

Great show. Tuesdays and Thursdays with Thommy are the best. Gruden is great during the football season. Keep up the good work, Kip.

Love the show! I could listen to Kevin talk about the ‘Skins/Commanders all day every day…and any time Al Galdi is on, we all win!

Long time listener, MD to TX, this show keeps me engaged in Redskin news. Kevin preps so well, thom tries and Cooleys rare appearance is spectacular. 10/10 all day. Keep it up

Love the show. The banter between you and Tom is really entertaining. Agree with most of your takes. Keep up the good work.

Intelligent, thought provoking, and laugh-out-loud humor.
