It was probably tongue in cheek if it was said. But anyway all opinions are valid and allowed, but we have to be careful how they are put across and not personal.
If you want to develop to pod you need the club, players and potentially coaches to buy in - for example the BTS stuff you did pre-season was really cool and value-adding. That’s the kind of things fans are interested in, and you’re in a position to give access - from a fans point of view.
You won’t get that access if you allow bullies with anger management issues a platform constantly. A good rule of thumb is: would we say this to the person’s face?
I know it’s an authentic fan-produced pod which as I said is its charm; but it is valid to ensure a range of critical views are presented for debate. I think podcasts like this work best as a facilitated discussion on the whole.

Keep up the good work mate.
Thank you
We are hoping to do more with the club but obviously it's been a bit of a weird time for the club in general.
People need to realise that people at the club, staff, players and coaches are human beings and things affect them just as it does us.

I like the pod. Win, lose or draw, it's always a good listen. I didn't mind the 'forthright' nature of the last podcast. Part of the attraction of fan media is that it's often unfiltered, but I appreciate that if you want to attract sponsorships, then you have to keep it PG.
Although, I would suggest maybe changing the name so it references Leeds rhinos or rugby league. That may help with the algorithm

Hello!
We've asked for more access to the players and staff for our content. Which we hope comes to fruition soon enough. Like Chris said - the club have had a lot on this year - and a podcast asking for some access to players is absolutely one of the items at the very bottom of their list!
As for the recent podcast - absolutely 100% on me as much as Mark - I should have stepped in and asked for the personal abuse to stop. Some enjoyed the unfiltered podcast, some didn't, we removed it anyway and we will learn from it, grow, and promise it won't happen again.
We've all had a pretty emotional time of it recently. And recording on the day of the game, only hours afterwards, was not a good idea.
What I will say is, we love doing what we do, we love having different opinions on our platform. And we are constantly thinking of new ways to improve and make our platform look and sound better.
We've listened to all feedback, good and bad, and have taken it on board.
This recent podcast was an abnormality. Anyone that has listened to us before would recognise that.

Well done Eddy. Very well said and no doubt the podcast will go from strength to strength
