    2022/04/06

    Big news for the pod! This is our last one at the Sonar Network. We’re moving to Raptors Republic and joining the Rapcast!

    Some bittersweet news, but yes, we are leaving the Sonar Network to  go to Raptors Republic. We’ve had a fantastic time at Sonar and can’t  say enough good things about them. So many great podcasts on this  network, and Michael and Marianna work their butts off. Freddie will  still be coming at you with Sonar’s The Pickup WNBA podcast, so make sure you subscribe and listen.

    RAPTORS: Kyle Lowry returns and gets his tribute. What was your  favourite moment from the return and overall favourite Kyle moment? Do  the Raptors have a Pat Beverley type of player?

    NBA: What’s underappreciated in the NBA? What kind of award should such a thing be given?

    With Darren Menezes and Yaw Attuah!

    Again, thanks so much, Sonar. We love you.

    Raptors Republic? Let’s go.
