I do my best to make sure each DBC episode contains far and away the best Duke MBB analysis you'll find anywhere. I'd love to cover the team full-time, but the only way that happens is if I receive help spreading the word. It's a supply and demand business, and if better coverage isn't demanded and then consistently supported and promoted, nothing will improve. Please rate AND leave reviews. If you've previously left a review, leave another. I pour my heart and soul (and infinite amounts of time) into the DBC pod. If you enjoy, why not take 30 seconds to help me out? By doing so, you'll also be helping other Duke fans receive the best team coverage in the country. Thanks!
