  • KK rocks so so so so MUCH
    Entertaining and interesting
    Well researched and interesting even when you don’t know the subject that well
  • Krysia24
    Really loved it until they couldn’t even say Kobe’s name right.
    Stop saying Kolby. You portray Kobe was guilty of a case that went all the way to criminal trial and he was exonerated as but never clarify? 20 years before his death too? Just say his name right and they e on his get you 4 stars. You say it right 1/4 of the time so it’s just purposeful at a point.

    Great podcast
    I gain a lot from Death of a Sports Star snd Death of a Rockstar. The narrator is very good.
  • bam526
    Interesting stories sensitively told

    Very fun to listen to, but at times unsettling, podcast about sport superstars (or those on their way) that you’ve probably never heard of - for the most part. But that actually makes this even MORE listenable to me - because it’s the stories about these immensely gifted young gods that kept me hypnotized, not the marketing of personalities. Just remember: FOOTBALL (or “Footie”) is SOCCER everywhere else in the world -

    Interesting short stories about people I was largely unfamiliar with.
