Seven Is Heaven: Winner Take All Games

A winner-take-all game is an unmatched thrill for players and fans in any sport. But two in particular - baseball and hockey - seem to reward players who aren’t household names with an elevated proportion of the indelible moments that live on through history. What’s it like to play in an ultimate game? And why do baseball and hockey Game 7’s so often produce heroes from the ranks of their depth players? Two-time Stanley Cup winner Bob Errey, 10-year NHL player Jamie Baker, NHL analyst Drew Remenda, Colorado Rockies alum and Apple TV+ analyst Ryan Spilborghs and former manager Wes Clements reveal what it’s like to take the ice or the field with absolutely everything on the line.

Scheme Work Makes The Dream Work

Football looks quite a bit different than it did a few decades ago - but most of today’s teams sure look similar to each other. How has offensive strategy changed over the past 50 years, how have defenses adapted, and how do playcallers keep their edge in this era of wide-open football? Legendary Oregon defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti and former NFL wide receiver Greg Camarillo help David, Staggy and Greg understand the ins and outs of modern football schemes.

Gretzky and Lemieux: Turn That 99 Upside Down

Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux aren’t just Hall of Famers - they are statistical outliers who dominated hockey in a way no one has before or since. Are their outsized numbers solely due to their unique gifts, or are they partly a product of the era in which they played? Two-time Stanley Cup champion Bob Errey, longtime NHL player Jamie Baker and San Jose Sharks analyst Drew Remenda join Sportscastica to break the ice on the two greatest performers ever to lace up a pair of skates.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
