Williams & Blum: Offseason Mailbag

[nallen34]

I know I'm asking for a lot wanting both Williams and Blum on the Williams and Blum podcast. Maybe they should try moving the show to a different day that they are both available, like they do on two guys. I know that's a crazy suggestion too. I'm full of crazy ideas.

Give the fans what they really want. That's all I'm saying in a nutshell.

what we want is great coverage no matter who does it

 

[Cycsk]

I get it. People don't care if it's Williams and Blum. It's just me. I'll move on.

Just couldn't let it go, could you?

I appreciate you saying that. I know they are allowed to have lives and that's totally fine. It doesn't need to be called Williams and Blum if it's not Williams and Blum. That's all I'm saying. It's like airing PTI without Kornheiser and Wilbon. Doesn't make any sense.

Cyclone Fanatic has obligations to sponsors. If they have a Sunday "Williams and Brend" show, those obligations aren't met.

Actually Brend does a significantly better job of plugging sponsors - IMO.

Move the show to the next day like they do on two guys. Neither Williams or Hassel ever miss two guys.

Then just don't post a podcast if both aren't able to do it. Pretty simple. Posting a Williams and Blum podcast with Brend and pence doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Or Brend and Blum or whatever combo of people they have. If it was not Williams and Blum like one time in like 6 months it would be fine. But it's like every other week. Just some constructive criticism. You don't have to agree with it, that's cool.

Lighten up Francis!

Your choice, don't listen. But there are other talented voices on the CF Staff. I just appreciate Cyclone info.

Honestly I don't necessarily think W&B is much about 'coverage'. Its 80% about banter between W&B, (and they have other pods that are more hard coverage type pods) so in that way I do kind of feel similar to @nallen34 when i see one or both aren't on it. It seems a bit odd so many seem to be hitting him for a pretty reasonable take.

Exactly right

 

[cycloneman003]

Surprised at the number of people jumping all over the OP. Multiple things can be true here. W&B is far and away best when it’s actually Williams and Blum. Same time, I fully get and appreciate the various reasons (family, schedules, opportunity, etc.) why the young guys get the nod for some shows.

I listen to several podcasts where there are two main co-hosts and W&B is no different than the rest in that the product is decidedly not the same when one/both isn’t present. Saying that isn’t a slight to anyone and I’d bet download/listening data would tell the same story.

I hope it warms the hearts of Williams and Blum to know how much they are missed by some of you.

My 25% was off. It's 50% my bad.

You must light up a cigarette after hearing both of their voices. I bet you have a poster of them in your bedroom.

I, like most people on this site, listen to the show to get information about Cyclone sports. The sub-ins more than adequately keep everyone updated.

 

[cayin]

Even tough Williams and Blum were not on, I really enjoyed Bend and Pence. I'm good with either, I get my Cyclone fix.

They also have sponsors that they need to keep happy. Canceling shows does not make CF money.

 

[cytor]

CW and Blum should be on most of the time. That being said, I'm not at all bothered by Pence or Brend filling in occasionally. The content of the program is the whole point of watching/listening.
