I will follow Mark Titus and his content wherever he goes. Titus has found an ideal landing spot at Barstool and it’s a joy to see him thrive there. Simply put, he is the most fun source for college basketball content anywhere and his passion for the lore and tradition of the sport is infectious. Wish it was a solo show with occasional guests though. Ohio’s Tate is very obnoxious in large doses.

^^

In October of 2012 Kevin Love got drunk, punched a wall and broke his hand. Schwartz spins it as knuckle pushups, and then has Woj do a hit piece with Love trashing Wolves to change the narrative. To this day that is how fans remember it. What is the name of the bar? In a 30 team competitive league, wouldn't agents, and gm's use of media to influence the market be illegal?

Fake Tate has ruined this show. I’m done.

5 stars fellas

Ad audio is so loud and the boys are WAY too quiet..makes for a tough listen at times. Work on that audio mix and you got gold!

Enjoyed listening to Titus right before moved to Barstool. Having Ohio Tate on is great too. Enjoying the new dynamic.

I love Mark & the show. I listened to last night’s podcast and the ads were at such uneven volumes I turned it off. Every ad was significantly louder than the actual pod. Please fix. Usually I skip all ads but if I’m listening away from phone I just go thru them. Also, less Jake. Who cares if he had to wait for traffic. Good lord.

Show is good until he can’t help himself and goes off on a political tangent. I listened for a while but I don’t want/ need politics in sports. I’m sure he was one of the guys that told Lebron to shut up and dribble, especially because he’s a hardcore conservative. The last draw was when he said there was “blood all over the White House because Biden’s dog is biting everyone.” Starts good but ends up as a clown podcast.

Purdue haters, losers

Best college basketball podcast. Love the tournament nightly recaps.

Just wanted to say tremendous chemistry with Jim Root. I think there is something there worth exploring.

I’m 💯 w you, thank you!! - a Tar Heel

Please get the levels of the show and ads equalized. Dang near blow my ear drums out when ads play bc I have the show turned up bc Mark talks so low. Also need to start getting shows out on a consistent time.

No Jake Marsh, that kid annoys me more than anyone I’ve ever listened to, not just podcasts

Would’ve been a 5 star review but I’m sick of hearing KFC say “what’s up chicken heads” 2 times every episode. Please just get someone else to do the ad intros.

Love this show. Will follow Titus to the ends of the earth. TJ adds a ton of value. But PLEASE lower the volume of the ads. I’m going to have KFC screaming “WHATS UP CHICKEN HEADS” in my nightmares pretty soon. Please please please figure this out

Huge fan of Mark, but he's not built for the solo podcast. Bring back Titus and Tate.

Love Titus Stop inserting the ads in the middle of words. And stop yelling at me.

Love Titus. Followed him for a few years now. Content is still just as good as years before but good lord can we do something about the audio on commercials? It’s at minimum twice as loud as the show.

Mark is awesome but my goodness stop yelling “WHATS UP chicken heads” for every ad break it is killing me.

Show rocks. Simple enough

Been following Titus since OSP and this show is good, but my god dropping extremely loud ads in the middle of Mark’s sentences is insane! It makes for a brutal listen compared to other shows that cleanly say “a word from our sponsors” or “let’s take a quick break.” Such a simple thing to do that would make the show so much better. I do miss Tate with Mark and think he’d be well served by adding a more regular co-host, but it isn’t a killer.

Need more of these

Keep up the great work Mark

Love the show but the placement of the ads is crazy. Having a billy football ad read in between Mark saying “No. …2 “ of the 12/15 episode is wild

Love the show. Have been listening since Titus and Tate. But this interlude is programmed at such a different sound level and blows my ears out every time. Otherwise 5 stars

I rated you one star on Titus and Tate for ranking Reed Sheppard the 9th best of Kentucky’s 10 recruits. I am giving you five stars in advance of the apology. Thanks.

The Jay Williams take is spot on. He was making it about him and not focusing on the game. Please don’t let this man keep doing college basketball games.

Imagine how much better this show would be if it was Bosco instead of Titus

This is a great listen if you’re a college hoops fan. Although after listening for a month I think Dalton Knechet may be Michael Jordan?

Love the love of basketball. Informative without taking things too seriously. s/o TJ

Overall content is good but commercial interruptions are beyond obnoxious. They snap in at 30 decibels louder than the content with a “hey chickenheads!” intro that couldn’t be more listener unfriendly if you had tried. Can’t enjoy the podcast because I’m always waiting for the always disruptive commercials - and I know they’re necessary from a business standpoint but it can be done better.

Love the podcast, but way too much Rico Bosco. Most people can only tolerate a little Rico. TJ, the next time Mark suggests to have Rico on the podcast, tase him. If he suggests it again, tase him again and recommend to Mark to go into his contacts and get someone else on, perhaps Jon Rothstein. If he suggests it again, tase him again and tell him to get into a car and drive to one of the many D1 universities within a 3 hour drive of Chicago and he can interview the coach or the best player (or even better, drive over to the BTN HQ in Chicago and interview one of their many analysts). If he dares mention Bosco again, tase him a 4th time, and recommend that he drive down Chicago State and have a wonderfully awkward interview with their coach. If you need a taser, I can provide one at a nominal cost. Sincerely, Joe Shlabotnik, Midwest Chapter President The Benevolent and Protective Order of Skells Chapter 666

Easy listening to and from work. Good conversation with unique sets of guests

Love all the shows. Only quibble with this one is the meta talk about numbers and how well the show is performing. I get that this is a Barstool thing but it’s inside baseball and not all that interesting to listen to. Also weird vibes about how people talk about Dave Portnoy. Dude seems like a petty tyrant.

Mark could be talking about Brownsburg little league pickleball and I would hang on to every last word. He just gets it.

Love when you have these guys on

I love this show. I have been a weekly listener since the OSP days. I followed Mark from the ringer, to Fox, and now to barstool. Because of this show, I also started listening to the dog walk and other barstool shows. If Mark moved to Al Jazeera, I would probably download the Al Jazeera mobile app.

I know it’s CBB off season but nobody cares about barstool history and how people got their start. If you are running out of things to say this early just take a week off.

I don’t care about these people you keep bringing on.

Tate Frazier > Brandon Walker

I knew about Titus from Titus and Tate but never listened until he joined barstool. Wish I did, great episode every time love the variety of guests and topics. Dude seems self aware and doesn’t try to be something he’s not. Great show boys , if you’ve never listened definitely give this pod a try. P.S Shoutout TJ one of the best producers fs.

Titus and Barstool are a match made in heaven. Any IHSAA hoops talk that can get thrown in, the better.

It’s a fine pod that isn’t great but not terrible. Big step back from Titus and tate

I don’t think Titus actually realizes what a moron he is. He deflects a lot joking about it but deep down I think he doesn’t realizes how stupid he is In actuality. He carries himself like he thinks he’s smart but just… is the dumbest mf’er ever…

When I can fit it in, I listen to this after Tate and OSP that has been better quality so far. This is too long and really depends on Titus’s rapport with the guest. Might upgrade to 5 stars if Titus drops the gambling content substantially and makes Jake a consistent guest (once a week similar to Kyle Mann on OSP). Edit: The off-season content has been a significant drop in quality from the T&T days. Get Titus a cohost and have them deep dive into some topics. Heck, just do a rewatch of South Park and give commentary or something or something like that. Just talking into your mic about the NBA is boring.

Your perspective on college basketball literally created an entirely new dimension through which to consume an entire sport. Then you took that lens, and the thousands who collectively loved that perspective, shot it, then kicked it in the teeth, all so that you could disappear into the anonymity of NBA media personalities. I don’t know, and more than that, don’t care whose fault it was. Just fix it.

solid pod bc titus is the man but i will be turning to eye on CBB now. it’s just not the same. can someone please let me know if titus rejoins OSP or tate joins barstool. friend of the program forever

The split from Tate has hurt the product immensely. Titus has on the occasional guest, mostly other barstool employees. Usually the show is him talking to himself and awkwardly laughing at his own jokes. He’ll sprinkle in some talk with his producer, who doesn’t have much college basketball knowledge. Then he goes back to laughing at his own jokes, awkwardly and uncomfortably, if you ever listened to the previous pods his laugh was much different when it was genuine bc of the great banter he had with Tate. It’s a shame, they had the best college basketball podcast and now they both do lesser versions of it. Tate’s is better because he is more polished with his delivery and has better guests on. Neither is putting out a podcast that’s even close to what they had when they were a duo.
