Listeners of Kaplan and Crew that love the show mention: br, great friends, san diego, scott, great show, love, good.
The Kaplan and Crew podcast is a show that I have been listening to for about 8-9 years, dating back to when I lived in San Diego. Even after moving away, I still can't get enough of them. What initially drew me to the show was their dedication to discussing SD sports, but over the years they have successfully expanded their topics to include other subjects outside of SD. This has transformed the podcast into a great daily listen for me.
One of the best aspects of The Kaplan and Crew podcast is their ability to keep listeners engaged by offering a wide variety of topics. While they do focus on SD sports, they are not limited by it and regularly discuss other sports news and current events. This diverse range of content ensures that there is always something interesting for listeners, regardless of their interests. Additionally, the hosts have great chemistry and provide entertaining banter throughout each episode, making it an enjoyable experience.
Another positive aspect of this podcast is the accessibility it offers through platforms like Apple podcast app. Being able to listen to past episodes at any time is incredibly convenient, especially for someone like me who often listens while walking down Rosecrans to Old Town everyday. This flexibility allows me to catch up on missed episodes or revisit favorite moments whenever I want.
However, one issue that I have encountered with The Kaplan and Crew podcast is with the recent shows from September 5 not downloading properly. As a dedicated listener who looks forward to new episodes each day, this can be frustrating. Hopefully, this technical glitch gets resolved soon so that fans don't miss out on any content.
In conclusion, The Kaplan and Crew podcast has consistently provided quality entertainment for almost a decade now. Their ability to discuss SD sports while also expanding into other topics has made it a must-listen show for me. Despite the current issue with downloading episodes from September 5th, I highly recommend giving this podcast a try if you enjoy engaging discussions and entertaining hosts.
