Every weekday morning, KNBR listeners join Brian Murphy and Paul McCaffrey on KNBR 680 to talk about everything from sports and entertainment to politics.
The Murph & Mac Podcast is a fantastic show that blends sports, music references, and humor in a way that keeps listeners entertained. At first, I wasn't sure if I would like the hosts, but I'm glad I stuck with them because they have become a staple in my daily routine. Whether I'm on vacation or just going about my day, I always make sure to listen to my Murph and Mac dose. The K&K interviews are by far my favorite segment of the show.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the mix of subjects they cover. Not only do Murph and Mac talk about sports, but they also bring in music references, current events, politics, literature, and even amazing storytelling. This variety keeps the show fresh and interesting. Additionally, their chemistry is second to none. The hosts have incredible chemistry together and it translates into an engaging and enjoyable listening experience.
However, one downside is that the podcast mainly consists of guest interviews rather than entire shows. While the interviews are great, it would be nice to have access to full episodes of the show as well. It can be disappointing when you're looking forward to listening to Murph and Mac discuss various topics only to find that all you have access to are interviews with guests.
In conclusion, The Murph & Mac Podcast is undoubtedly one of the best radio shows in the bay area. The hosts deliver a top-notch performance every morning and their ability to tackle various subjects with humor and knowledge is commendable. Despite all the challenges that have come their way including pandemics and protests, they never fail to deliver an entertaining show. Listening to this podcast has become a part of many people's daily routines because it adds joy and laughter to their mornings.
