This isn't Mina Kimes. incorrect download
wanted to finally listen to my Mina's podcast and all I heard was baby Bengals dude talk for like 45 minutes. Ugh!
The sound of your voice is pleasant.
You need to stop being so witty due to giving me, my wife, and two collegiate daughters heart attacks (of joy). 😂
I've listened to pods for 10 years now and been married for 12, yours is the first I've been able to turn my wife on to. You're gonna do very big things in this industry. I'd bet a lot of money on it. At 36 Ive learned that so many people suck at their job and it's sad. That being said I love people who excel at their job and do the extra work to be good. (you fall in this group) I love how u know more than everyone about football and u pass on that knowledge and provide insight that helps. U do this better than most former athletes who get paid to give the viewer or listener insight that only they could give bc they played the game. You represent women so well and I truly believe you're the first of your kind. Keep killin it
Wish I would have found this podcast sooner but will never miss one again.
yes! Domonique Foxworth!
Mina, I love the show, but I think we both know that Andrew Luck with the best D in the NFL and Marshawn Lynch goes undefeated and wins the SB.
Mina Kimes can get it
Mina can leave her scünci in my room anytime.
How do I rate the podcast?
pretty disappointing
love Mina why doesn't she have her own show. The whole cast are good together and make Sundays worth looking forward to. Start your week off with morning roast.
I love mina kimes but i can't listen to Clinton Yates. he's fucking cancer
