    Ivy Insights

    The The Program podcast with Soren Petro, Kurtis Seaboldt, and Jed Marshall has become a staple for me as a sports fan living outside of Kansas City. Whether it's keeping me entertained or well-informed, this trio never fails to deliver. They have their finger on the pulse of the KC sports fan and manage to convey that mood even to those like me who are now living in another state. What sets this podcast apart is the unique and varied slate of guests they bring on, combining knowledge and rapport to create an engaging listening experience. Overall, The Program is undeniably one of the best sports talk podcasts out there.

    One of the best aspects of The Program podcast is the exceptional quality of their hosts. Soren Petro comes prepared and does his homework, ensuring that listeners learn something new about sports after each episode. He also brings on great guests who provide interesting insights into various topics. Additionally, Petro's ability to consider both sides of an argument and provide logical and thoughtful explanations showcases his expertise in sports broadcast journalism. Moreover, the introduction of politics into the sports programming adds another layer of depth to their discussions.

    However, one minor drawback of The Program podcast is that it may not appeal to those seeking shock jocks or hot takes. This podcast prioritizes offering in-depth analysis and understanding rather than sensationalism. While this approach makes it a fantastic option for fans who want to know the ins and outs of sports, those looking for more controversial or provocative content may need to look elsewhere.

    In conclusion, The Program podcast stands out as one of the best listens in sports talk. Soren Petro, Kurtis Seaboldt, and Jed Marshall consistently deliver entertaining and informative episodes with great guests who provide valuable insights into regional sports as well as KC area teams. Petro's well-researched approach combined with his wit and fearlessness make him one of the best radio hosts in the business, transcending beyond sports. Despite minor drawbacks, The Program podcast has set a high standard for quality content in the industry and continues to be a must-listen for any KC sports fan.
