Sharp & Benning in the Morning featuring Gary Sharp and Damon Benning. Tune in Monday-Friday from 7-11am on 1620 the Zone and streaming live at www.1620thezone.com
The Sharp & Benning podcast is an absolute gem for sports enthusiasts in areas where it may be difficult to catch the 1620 signal. As someone who struggles to pick up the radio station, I am grateful for this podcast as it allows me to stay updated on all things related to sports. What sets this podcast apart from others is its ability to provide insightful analysis, feature great guests, and ask thought-provoking questions that I have yet to hear on any other sports podcast. Not only does it offer entertaining content, but it also teaches valuable lessons about life. With their focus on delivering the information we need to hear, I hope that Sharp and Benning continue to grace us with their presence for a long time.
One of the best aspects of The Sharp & Benning podcast is the wealth of knowledge possessed by the hosts. They are incredibly knowledgeable sports radio hosts who excel at breaking down the state of Husker sports. It is refreshing to hear from local sports writers who provide a unique perspective on the game and offer insights that you won't find anywhere else. The guests they bring onto the show are always well-chosen and add even more depth to the discussions. Whether you're interested in football, basketball, or any other sport, you can rely on this podcast to keep you informed and engaged.
However, every rose has its thorns, and The Sharp & Benning podcast is not exempt from criticism. One recurring complaint is about Doug, a frequent caller who seems to have bought advertising space which grants him unfettered access to call in and share his Jaysker takes. While some may find his contributions engaging, others find them tedious and boring. It would be great if there was a way for the hosts to moderate such calls or limit them so that they do not detract from an otherwise outstanding listening experience.
In conclusion, The Sharp & Benning podcast is my go-to show for all things sports. It offers a perfect blend of entertainment and informative content, making it a must-listen for any sports fan who craves deep insights and engaging discussions. With the hosts' knowledge, objectivity, and ability to break down X's and O's, they have consistently proven to be two of the best in the area. The podcast also deserves praise for its ability to mix in non-Husker related material, offering a well-rounded listening experience. Overall, I highly recommend The Sharp & Benning podcast to anyone looking for an entertaining and educational sports podcast.
