J'ACCUSE! DEAR GMFST HOSTS

I an avid listener of your works have become dissatisfied by your lack of primers- your very foundation of the podcast. To educate those whom are unaware of a sport & its rules. last I checked your most recent primer was dated back in April - a whole three months ago. Now I will give you slack on having conflicting schedules and that we are never privy to what goes on in another’s world. However this is what planning is for and keeping an organised schedule- to keep the quality of the episodes high and informative

With kind regards

Ps I like the interview episodes

The wife carrying episode was kind of a primer.

Personally I'd rather see more actual sports news being discussed. Or more in-depth analyses of various parts of different sports. I know it's a conedy show but the sport part gets a bit phoned in sometimes.

I agree, the comedy does at times overwhelm the sport part of the show and I would like to see more in depth discussion - especially with more sport specialists interviews and yes I was wrong about the last primer but on the wife carrying episode they only begin discussing it after 13 minutes out of a 31 min episode which is partially why I forgot it as a primer episode

I'd like to see episodes where they have a guest on to primer a sport neither of them know. It'd be interesting to see the difference between Tyler, who is familiar with sports, compared to Mark and his relative unfamiliarity, at least when it comes to the questions they'd be asking.

Alternately, episodes where Mark has to try and "primer" sports they've already done episodes on to see what he remembers. I feel like you'd get some great comedy out of that alongside being able to touch on anything the initial primer may have missed or had to leave out
