divijvk23Best wizards pod in the gameEvery time a new episode comes out it’s an instant listen. Matt and Jahadi are the consistent and find different angles to attack each podcast even during a point in the offseason where there shouldn’t be as much content as they are able to produce. Special guests keep the content fresh too. Love the work guys.
-
TherealogbobbyBest Wizards podcastExcellent incite, clearly educated opinions and solid guests. Hopeful for the future of this franchise and hope this podcast gets to see the teams grind come to fruition. Go Wizards!

MJaxJrFavorite Wizards PodcastThis is my favorite Wizards podcast by far. First and foremost, I love the consistency. Obviously I know all podcast hosts have lives outside of a given show, but a lot of Wizards podcasts I’ve listened to throughout the years have no consistent schedule of episodes. An episode could drop one day, and next one might drop randomly three weeks later. Bleav in Wizards is very consistent, and during grad school in California it was something I looked forward to every week to make me feel connected to home. Matt is a gifted host, and I absolutely love Jahidi’s insights and candor. I also appreciate how they dig a bit deeper in their analysis of the team than some other podcasts, really relying on critical thought, past experiences in the case of Jahidi, league trends, etc. to explore the “why” of team happening instead of a simplistic recounting of what happened. Very well done!

Greg "Juice"G SilverThe only Wizards comparable to Harry Potter. 10/10

Duncan Robinson MVPFavorite Wiz pod!Great job! Keep it up!

bookaki12The 🐐MM has a great bag. Even if this team gonna lose a bunch this duo worth the listen

@CulpepperEricAwesome!Great Job guys!
-
BJB_17Excellent InsightMatt is always on point with the Wizards!
-
Greg FinbergBleav in WizardsMatt is one of the most knowledgeable Wizards fans I know. Always tapped in to the latest with this squad and provides entertaining episodes alongside his co-host, Jahadi White. Can’t tell you how much I’ve learned from this podcast. Make sure to check it out!
-
WizarsdTrashTalkerThe Etan Thomas episode was GREATWhat an ep, what a guy. Jahidi and Etan have incredible chemistry. Two old friends talking about their playing days and weighing in on the state of the league. Etan isn’t just some former Wizard either. This man is an author and serious contributor to publications like The Guardian. Loved hearing him on here. An evergreen episode. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Its F1 not McGlovinGo to Wizards PodcastThis has become my go to Wizards podcast!!!
-
street_dreamsExcellent Wiz PodHuge fan. Love the content.
-
RockyandStuGreat Content and KnowledgeTitle says it all. Matt varies up the basketball topics with different guests, he asks smart questions and the show delivers actual knowledge about the game. As someone that doesn’t have time to watch all the games, this is my go to podcast for the Wiz.
-
Sports Talk GeekGreat Stuff!Good times, bad times, good seasons, bad seasons. Matt knows the Wizard inside and out and brings that knowledge to Wizards fans and all basketball fans at high level each and every week!
-
ad2083Misery loves companyI love the podcast. Matt, Jahadi & the guests always provide excellent points. They always seem to have a pulse on how the fans are feeling. I wished we had a better product on the court for us to root for. Keep up the good work & can’t wait for what y’all got planned for the future.
-
Hize46Great podcast but I don’t like the new directionThis has been my go to Wizards podcast since Fred Katz left Wizards After Dark and moved to the Knicks beat. Matt is incredibly knowledgeable on the Wizards and provides high level intelligent content. I’ve always enjoyed his conversations with other smart basketball analysts. But if I’m being honest, I don’t understand why they brought Jahidi White onto the podcast. No disrespect to him personally as he is a former NBA player, but he doesn’t bring the kind of insider analysis to the show that I enjoy. It feels like his player-first mentality is taking the show in a totally different direction. The back and forth conversations between Matt and Jahidi are not the same “nerd out over basketball” that I’ve come to appreciate. I hope they find their way and go back to the former way of scheduling guests.
-
sjnboysAwesome Podcast!!Love the content and the breakdown! Jahadi White really does a great job of breaking down the player and coach’s mindsets!
-
Lame MillennialUnbiased and consistent Wizards podcastOnly a wizard can make that ^ happen 🪄

Steph geez5 stars for DMVDec 29 2001, I was 17 yo and saw Michael Jordan score 51 points as a Wizard. In in the row behind me a 7 year old Wizards fan screamed the name Jahaaaadddiiii for 2+ hrs

Jcott112Greta podcast fan in HoustonNew cohost is Jahidi White

BmkarHost Matt Modderno Is The BestRafael Barlowe (Recent Podcast Guest): “…(Matt), you know your stuff, Man. You’re definitely the best when it comes to combining team stuff and (NBA) draft…there’s nobody better out there. And, I’m dead serious about that..” Rafael speaks my mind (and for so many others).
-
igamer624New host Jahidi White?Love how detailed and clear-eyes the analysis here is. Helps to wade through some of the wizards delusion elsewhere on the internet!
-
A2daRon!Go WizardsGood for recapping the Wizards even if DC fandom is cursed. Jahidi White!
-
derpaderpaderpaderpaTop Shelf Wizards contentMatt is the best source around for high-quality Wizards content. He does a phenomenal job approaching discussions from the perspective of both a fan and an analyst (fanalyst?) and engaging with his audience. If you’re a huge Wizards fan and aren’t listening to Matt, you’re missing out. PS, is the new co-host Jahidi White?
-
FitzBraNew cohostMartell Webster!
-
Ward 8 VetGreat PodMust listen if you are a Wiz fan! Tap in! The new Co Host will be Brendan Haywood
-
tykwonflowThe only sports podcast I make time forAs a working parent, I don't have a ton of time for podcasts, especially ones longer than 30 minutes. Matt's podcast is the exception. He makes it worth my time through thoughtful analysis and interviews. It strikes just the right balance between technical and colloquial. I definitely feel like a smarter basketball fan after each listen. Update 2/4/23: I think Sam Dekker is the new podcast co-host.
-
weaselarmorGuess for the new cohostTrevor Booker!
-
Fitzhugh CGreat PodMatt is the man…knows Wiz inside and out…new former Wiz co-host is likely Jason Smith
-
jdudd23My favorite show!My go to/favorite show for all things Wizards! 🙌

Sportsfan122Great show!!Awesome analysis

JarydWilsonMatt Is GreatMatt has one of the most passionate team-specific social followings and it Carrie’s over to how he does this pod. Super insightful and engaging.

fjidosCo host guestIs it going to be Roger Mason Jr?
-
One Testicle LanceThe best Wizards/DMV hoops podcast outNot saying this lightly. Matt has bent over backwards for years keeping this train running. Having Larry was great for when we could have him. Matt has carried it successfully still after that break, experimenting with new stuff and giving us quality, reliable, and timely takes and content. Can’t say enough positive things about him and the pod. I don’t know how a grown man with that many cats does it. My guess on the new cohost: Sam Dekker?
-
Hube918374628My favorite Wizards PodThis is an absolutely fantastic podcast. Matt finds a way to balance the rational perspective and knowledge of a reporter with fanatical exuberance, frustration and hot takes on the team. His guests are great (I would love to see more collaborations with Kevin Broom). Keep it up!
-
derelicteTreLook forward to it each weekI discovered the pod this season and very glad I did. Even when I can’t catch the game or stay up to date on the latest Wiz news, I know Matt has me covered. With impressive knowledge of the Wiz, Go Gos, and prospects, Matt and his guests provide great insights on the team and game I love. I look forward to a new episode every week. Keep it up Matt!
-
DetroitUpMatt is the bestNo need to go anywhere else for your Wizards content. This podcast has everything covered!
-
RHaus7Matt ModdernoFor the Wizards/NBA fan Bleav in Wizards is my first choice. Matt is a knowledgeable, passionate and talented host. He clearly works hard at finding enjoyable guests who entertain the listener. We are lucky to have him in the DMV.
-
GQatListNightWell-worth your timeA fantastic show from a great guy, Matt treads the line between dejected Wizards fan (as many of us are) and insightful, analytical reporter - between the guests he brings on, the content he puts together, and his eye for the game(and talent), Bleav in Wizards is a must-listen for any & all Wiz fans.
-
ntm0917Best wizards podcastMatts a great host and provides a great fan perspective with just the right amount of earned cynicism
-
Loanmoney001Rating of the showI always love the podcast I am a wizard fan what is important to me is you can feel the love. I have listened to this podcast for about a year. Keep up the great work.
-
J.CoversVery nice workI put these reviews off longer than I should. After about two years of listening though - it’s about time. The news and entertainment has been free; the least I can give in return is a good word. Top notch Wiz pod full of quality content. Matt Moderno does an excellent job hosting the pod and when former Mr. Show-Me Basketball and NBA All Def 1st teamer Larry Hughes makes his appearances it’s the sweet icing. Moderno holds if down nicely either way. Good topics, thoughtful interviews, a good blend of expert information and fan-like speculation make for good edutainment. He legit represents the voice of the ever-paining DC hoops fan. If you’re a Wiz fan and you’re not listening, you absolutely should be.
-
Sammm_MLove this podI’ve been listening to bleav in wizards for a couple of years and it just keeps getting better. Matt provides both a refreshingly fair perspective and a ton of really well researched and curated content. A must listen for any wizards fan!
-
killmoejhilikeThank you Matt ModernoFar and away my favorite basketball pod. Matt offers refreshing, realistic and passionate perspective for a team where it’s designated local media coverage is tainted by team ownership. I found this podcast and listened because of Larry, I continue to listen because of Matt. Thank you for all the work you put in.
-
duracellusaMatt and all the guestsMy man is well sourced, reliable, and has the depth of knowledge throughout the organization. He’s so concise and clearly does the homework. Keep this up man -Hush
-
taylorjonesdcInsightful and well-balanced Wizards podMatt, the host, has the right balance of optimism and cynicism for a Wizards podcast. Others are either too team-friendly, too pessimistic, or (honestly) not professional enough. Matt, with a range of guests from Larry Hughes to others, still manages to feed me new info and things to think about even though I rarely miss a game. Overall, this is the best Wizards pod out there.
