The show was too short. Felt rushed. Should been hour or more format.
^^ should have been an hour, should have been almost entirely the conversations, instead of cramming in a 10 minute monologue/hot takes segment at the start of the show simply because that's what sports TV shows are supposed to look like. Then they chopped up the conversation segments and put some of the best bits up as clips on hbogo, which was a terrible idea.
I also think they made a tactical error in having so many guests on that were 100% in the BS universe already, ie former podcast guests and such, but maybe that is the issue, that they couldn't book the kinds of guests they were hoping for.
I'd be more interested in the show if it was just a unedited ~30 minute one-on-one followed by a ~30 minute group conversation.
I think the time slot was also a mistake, late Wednesday night doesn't scream 'sports' to me, and they launched the show during a fairly dead period for sports as well. But the big issue is that they tried to format it like a regular tv show, and tried to make Bill a regular tv host.
