    Hilarious. Chris is the man, Macon is hilarious. But please for the love of god, mute Matt’s mic. The guy thinks he invented sports. Arrogance delivered from the most monotone drab voice.

    Six stars for Macon’s jokes
    Between four lane and European jokes, Macon continues to bring fire every time!

    Favorite podcast
    The intro with chris and macon on the 9/8/23 podcast is sensational. The dynamic yall two have is by far and away my favorite aspect of the show. Wouldn’t mind more stories like those paintball wars back in high school! Also the ad men never misses

    Little Bro right
    My brother has been recommending Greenlight for so long. I really only paid attention to college football (Go Noles) but I am learning so much about football. Apparently I only knew the obvious actions, TD, Field Goal, neutral zone and off sides for example. You use terms I don’t understand but explain it clearly and in an enjoyable way. Example: I only recently learned there’s certain players the QB can’t throw to. Now I have a crush on Beau. Definitely driving my brother crazy with questions, as it should be. Thank you so much for the fun listens!

    For a time this podcast kept me alive and going. But, quite clearly, it’s become a run of the mill podcast driven by sponsors along with plain 2-dimensional football blah-blah-blah. There’s no difference between this and “New Heights” which is also trash. At a certain level, I appreciate Chris for what he set out to originally do. But, Chris has lost his way. He likes being the voice of dissent. Kyle is the most uninteresting person in the world. “America’s Teams. Hmm. Well, obviously it’s the team I never played for The Kansas City Chiefs because I exist only to troll.” Whenever Macon ultimately cuts ties with the group and creates his own podcast about Life, The Universe, and Everything, I will subscribe 1,000x over to that. And that’s coming from an Eagles’ fan!

    Super Bowl Content Weak
    You're hardly the only show with this problem, but the super bowl content was awful. The interviews and product placement are literally nothing content-wise. I was hoping you were smart enough not to fall into that trap but you did, so I'm here to express disappointment. Love the show when it isn't commercial vomit in audio form.

    Bad Back
    Used to be a 5 star show. Still enjoyable for the most part. Outside of Kevin Gill Badke. Guy is insufferable, and boy, worth a google. Yikes. Cut the dead weight

    Super insightful chat with Hannah. Great choice especially considering the time of year.

    I’ve been listening to football Podcasts for over a decade now and this one easily takes the cake. The insight, authenticity, and entertainment is second to none. Long brothers > Kelce brothers
  • Ice Cole Cubelic
    Great show
    👍🏼
  • Manatee83
    Simply the best
    Listening to you is refreshing because you have real football knowledge and I love the way you show how context matters with Quarterbacks and any position in the NFL and how important coaching is. Love you bro, appreciate this pod so much. Simply the best.

    Will Change to a 5 When…
    Chris and his brother realize that yelling randomly into the microphone is a terribly idiotic thing to do on a podcast where people are often listening with headphones on Once they stop, podcast will get the 5 stars it deserves

    Don’t add anyone else
    You know who I mean who was that

    Great show!
    I really enjoy the show! Chris I also really enjoy listening to your insights when you are a guest on both the Dan Patrick show and the Rich Eisen Show!

    Enjoy episodes w/o Macon. Too whiny for me.
  • Kdmdjdjdjd
    Chris looong
    Unfortunately these pods are getting a lot longer but with less Macon. Macon with Chris was what made this pod elite.
  • Iman Humpert
    Low Volume
    Thank you for having one of the best sports podcasts available, but can we please look in to the audio’s volume? It’s significantly lower even at max volume than other podcasts and makes it difficult to listen to when you’re in louder surroundings.
  • The Big Nelbowski
    Elite Pod
    Best sports pod out there. These guys are hilarious and break things down better than anyone.

    I listen for two simple reasons. Chris is hilarious and ruggedly handsome. End of story. Listen, Rate, Review, Subscribe or be a loser.
  • TravisKelceismyboyfriend
    Not your typical demographic
    44 year old female from Kansas City I am a huge Chiefs and New Heights podcast fan. I tuned in when you had Jason Kelce on, and I have been a fan ever since. I’m not sure why but I think you are hilarious. If you keep making me laugh like this, I might replace Chris Long with my boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

    5 stars with a silver bullet
    As a solo preneur I listen to countless podcasts. First heard Chris on Russillo, they are great together. Started listening to green light at the beginning and while likeable and fun guys, it was a little rough around the edges tbh with Macon either barefoot or socks pulled up to far. But with Chris’ legendary long work ethic and being a deep thinker to quote Howie, this pod has continued to improve to a high level of professionalism. Chris is a great interviewer with unique questions and insights and recently his articulation of NFL team updates from camps rivals a Russillo NBA breakdown with thankfully fewer play by play X and O ryen. I have to turn down the volume on the psychotropics but this is becoming an entertaining must listen program.

    Green Light
    Always entertained by something on this jawn although I do have to say the Chris Long pic on the show logo has changed … Chris looks like a homeless meth zombie now. Time to ratchet up the BIRDS coverage !!!
  • Jkuh88
    90’s draft…
    Chris…I don’t know what the you were worried about with this segment. I work in an office and started laughing uncontrollably having to swiftly remove my AirPods and walk to the hallway. Kyle is the best most lovable idiot. Because of what you all have built, episodes like this are needed sometimes. You can get away with them because when you make it casual then it, for us, feels more like a hang out rather than a show that we are listening to. You guys are all the best.
  • hillpeaks
    Great Pod!
    Been a follower since the first season. Love the growth with the cast. Kyle was a great add. Have more Ryen Russillo guest spots. His banter with Chris is always top notch. Looking forward to the upcoming football areas on with this podcast. Great analysis!
  • dontmillenialshameme
    Like honestly
    Can fax like honestly like honestly find another two words I mean like seriously. I used to like like this. I mean honestly he single handedly like brings the show down. I mean like seriously
  • dms086
    Fax
    Why is he on the show. He’s incredibly difficult to listen to. He ruins your show Chris.

    Movie Reviews!
    Love the movie reviews! Keep pumping those out.

    Bought the book
    Really enjoyed the show….very interesting stories….articulate interviews are some of the best entertainment there is. Thanks !!
  • Woofive
    Great Interviews
    I’ve been listening since day 1. Love the variety of guests, and Chris does well with the interviews. Macon and Chris combo is my fave…like the other guys too, but more interrupting and talking over each other 🙉. Overall, really enjoy this pod.
  • DeanEagles
    Go birds
    Been listening for years now even within new heights out this is still my go to sports pod.
  • 9fives
    Fun and great guests
    I really enjoy the banter between the regular hosts and have been amazed by their recent run of guests during the NFL offseason. Definitely a must listen.
  • La52380

    Listening to the irony of Chris crushing anyone for being a nepo baby is just the best. Yep, doors were never opened in your life. Love PMT!
  • johnAgrace
    Kentucky Derby
    It’s great you mentioned the 7 horses that died the week leading up to the Kentucky Derby, but then you celebrate those that were in attendance. Horse racing should be banned . It’s only purpose is gambling. Multiple race tracks across the country experience multiple equine deaths weekly, yet celebrities still flock to the track just to be seen and celebrated by media outlets. Seven dead horses may not seem like much but those horses are forced to race. Seven dead horses dying in the week preceding the derby would be equivalent to 37 NFL players dying Super Bowl week.
  • 'jdgsvdbrko
    Really cool
    Sports pod that wants to talk about how cool Richard petty is… I’ll pass
  • TreyS247Sports
    Best podcast in the world
    But please no more voicemails …
  • PatInfanti
    Best sports pod out there
    I have been a weekly listener for the last three years and absolutely love the show. Has only gotten better over the years and the rotating cast of supporting characters like Dr.Fax, Kingston, Kyle, and Cowboy Reid really make the show even better. Chris is as real and down to earth as anyone and Macon is a gem as co-host. Production has been great lately and guests are always interesting. Love Stanford Steve in the fall too. Keep it up y’all!
  • DDatl
    Great pod
    Not the sharpest tools in the shed, but great pod. I hope y’all have seen Skynyrd’s version of Call Me The Breeze at Knebworth, otherwise y’all are fake mf’s haha

  • tua_tuatua
    Macon Plays!
    That was impressive. Two really high quality interviews that made for an enjoyable show. Two hours felt like 20 minutes. Yeah yeah yeah congrats player.

    Fax and Bo
    Need their own show.
  • captnzen
    Don’t Monologue Us, Chris!
    Totally 👍 pumped to hear 👂 the post-Super Bowl pod. But OMG 😳, Chris did a one-man show w/Kyle & Macon unsuccessfully trying to make it a conversation. After 20 minutes it became a convo & was much, much better. Take a breath brother. Good cast of characters. Use ‘em. Let the interaction breathe.

    Part of my weekly education on sports from people that played them professionally.
  • Glamis101
    Fantastic
    Love this pod. Little behind, but just got to listen to Macon do the interview with Nicole and that was amazing. Love the whole crew, keep up the great work!
  • Latchkey project
    Day 1 listener
    Yo green light pod crew, been listening since the beginning. Really enjoying the show and how it has progressed. Personally I found the longer shows (and more shows/content) to be great and fulfilling. I keep learning more and more about a sport I was seemingly walking away from but now I enjoy more then ever. I appreciate all you guys do and look forward to ever episode/interview, keep up the great work.
  • Random guy from New Mexico
    Thank you to Chris and all of the Greenlight pod
    I just wanted to say thank you to all of the Green light pod and that I hope you are able to find peace in the coming day. Chris, your touching word for the UVA players, staff and community moved me to tear. I could feel the pain and emotions in your word. Thank you for your vulnerable in sharing these word, emotions and pain that you are experiencing. As someone who lost a friend to gun violence, it means to hear you express this pain. Prayer for Greenlight, Charlottesville, and all the UVA family.
