    Don’t listen to the haters.
    The negative reviews are off the mark in my opinion. To address the comment that he’s wrong about his picks, check out johncanzano.com where he publishes his picks all season and tallies his record for to keep himself accountable. I’m pretty sure he’s doing much better than “95% “ wrong. In response to his opinions being wrong, why don’t you call in and share yours? I am sure he would appreciate having a conversation with you. Great guy with great values. His show provides an opportunity for dialogue, and his rhetoric is much needed in today’s day and age. That’s enough “hate” reading for me today. Good day sir.

    Predictions are wrong 95% of the time
    I have listened since conference realignment really kicked up and he has been wrong on every major event since then. Pac12 issues, Super Bowl picks, Oregon Washington Picks the list is to big to type. My favorite piece of irony is in episode 55 of canzano and wilner he calls for media accountability as if he wasn’t the one spreading false new and being used as a puppet! Also has had 2 guest on his show which were “friends of the show” each of them slipped up writing/saying something very dumb and he total threw them under the bus and trashed them after their mishaps when just weeks ago they were “good friends.” His ego is massive.

    Great Show!!!
    Can’t get enough of John’s show! I’m not able to hear it live during the day so love downloading his podcast and listening during my drive. John is great and love to hear his feedback on sports. Always love the weekly guests that he has on, and love the 5 at 5 with Anna. Great show!

    Your tears are delicious Clownzano
    You’ve got everything wrong about realignment. Now your career, like the pac 4, is dead.

    Great stuff every day on my 2 hour commute.
    However, audio levels between in studio people are very inconsistent. Canzano at nice level. Then of Newby or Steven chime in their levels are much lower. I have to have my hand on my car volume control the entire time to turn them up and then turn them down when Canzano comes back on lest he blow my ears out.

    Interviews
    I second the request to separate interviews from the rest of the show

    Love all the CFB talk! Could listen to it all day can’t wait for the Ducks to kick off the season!

    Cristobal phrase genius
    I enjoyed your interview with Mario Cristobal. Especially when asked how he deals with bringing in such smart and experienced coaches. His answer...We would prefer to have a “Think Tank” approach than a “Group Think” approach. Wow! A concept our national leaders would be better served to adopt.
  • Dogbird2
    Get straight to the guest!!!
    Please separate the interviews from the entire show!

    Excellent Podcast
    Thank you for making these podcast available! When I moved away from Oregon I missed listening to your radio show everyday and realized how much I appreciated your show, when compared to others in my new area. Discovering your podcast was like Christmas morning. Thank you and your staff for all you do. I really enjoyed listening to all the different Pac-12 AD’s on your show, it gave perspective and insight. Keep up the great work!

    Lame
    I didn’t mind your wife, Anna, on the podcast occasionally but I don’t care to listen to her more than that. Boring!! Step up your guest game.
  • Chadillak1978
    Great job John!
    Keep up the great work John, I fully support the BFT and what you do in Portland. Helping us get through some difficult times and I appreciate you showing up every day with the truth.

    Horrible Horrible Horrible
    Talk about an overgrown ego. You’re a hack sports writer in Portland, act like it. Be thankful you have that job, stop making everything about you.

    Missing the breakouts
    I enjoy the podcast, but miss the break out segments
  • Jungdweller
    Love the show - what happened to guest pods??
    Recently it appears the shorter pods from the show with just a segment or a guest have gone away - was really liking to be able to listen to interviews I’m interested in without navigating through the whole show. Would love to see these return, thanks!
  • jjkylerowe
    Need individual interviews back
    I miss the individual interviews broken out. I don’t have time to listen to the whole show but still want to listen to important smaller pieces.
  • genetically_altered
    Please put back the individual guest segments
    I was first drawn to this podcast by the individual guest mini podcasts & wouldve rated this a 5 star. Lately though, it’s just been a single/full podcast w all guests, with at most one individual mini podcast. Don’t have time/interest to listen to all guests so I’ve stopped listening. Please go back to posting the per-guest mini podcasts. Or, at least post info on when each guest comes on so I can go directly to those time spots

    Love the Podcasts!
    I really enjoying listening to the show via the Podcast platform. Have been listening for the past 5 years. Love John’s interviews. Would enjoy more Blazer talk. Keep up the great work.

    Thanks for making me think!
    Love the interviews. Love the unpredictable questions. Tracy
  • Naahhhhhhhhh
    Meh
    Self promoting braggart that re-hashes what everyone else has already talked about....if that’s your thing you’ll love the show!
  • sykocus
    Five stars
    Different kind of sports show. Not filled with grandstanding and BS hot takes. Just the truth. Also every time you subscribe a college student from Alabama gets a free ride on an e-scooter.
  • TheFanHans
    Go Blazers
    John does a good job being entertaining and talking about life on the show. Somehow he talks about northwest sports without making me depressed and I don’t even agree with him much of the time. He helps me think about my teams and life. AA does a far better job than John and she is a student. Good show.

    Husky fan appreciates your podcasts
    John, I am a Washington Husky fan living in the Seattle area, but have to say that I have enjoyed listening to your podcasts over these past 2 years since I first found you prior to the 2016 Washington - Oregon game. Your style is refreshingly through provoking, and I very much enjoy the wide range of topics and guests (especially enjoy Alliotti) that you regularly feature. Thank you for the high quality of your podcasts that have made being stuck in Seattle traffic so much more enjoyable. Keep up the great work you've been doing. Gary

  • TheeAlbertMesa
    Best show in Portland!
    John Canzano is the best radio show host in Portland. I like the way he shares his personal life and human interest stories. John Truly cares about people and that comes through on the air. The Insight from Alabama Adriana on different topics is a nice layer to the show. Thank you John and Adriana!
  • SolsticePDX
    I don’t miss a show.
    I never miss. Especially enjoy the interviews... my favorite part. Podcaster does a particularly great job. Thanks to all who listen.

    BEST SHOW IN PDX EASY

  • Donna in Vancouver WA
    Unvarnished Truth & Opinion—Excellent Show
    Listen almost daily live and podcasts when I miss a program. JC excellent interviewer. Interesting stories and interviews about sports and life. Always worth the listen.
  • SkepticInPDX
    Love him or hate him...
    He's got opinions, and for that, I love the show! Blunt, authentic, and whether you agree or not, I always learn something new listening to Canzano. Alamaba Adrianna adds a great touch as well! Highly recommented!
  • groundchuck101
    Cool show
    Local dude talks about family and sports. Give him a listen.
  • Ahersh26
    Amazing
    Love this show. Listen every day, wall-to-wall. Highly recommend 10/10
  • John Kirkish
    Excellent show
    I enjoy this show far more than other sport shows. It’s a breath of fresh air to be able to listen through a hose that gives honest/professional opinions on local sports teams and isn’t just a homer that claims each local team is the greatest in their respective league. He also remains very relatable to the audience and seems to be receptive when he hears opinions that may differ from his when the other person politely makes their case. Couldn’t be happier from noon to 3pm. -JOHN from Wilsonville
  • My angle Liana
    Fun show
    Not the same old sport interview, with the same standard answer work hard win 1 game at a time don't win the turnover battle you get the idea 6its refreshing!!
  • scottTduke
    Third rate (at best)
    So many pointless questions just taking up time... how can Oregon sports have such a mediocre production? Oh, and it will download the same segment several times (probably helps ratings, that's how douchy this podcast come off as being).
  • AndyRandom
    Great Show!
    I enjoy listening to John Canzano. His opinions, guests and pace of the show is entertaining and innovative. He helps me trudge through my day while driving to work.
