Ryan's Review: The Rich Eisen Show.

If you're a fan of the NFL, you probably know who Rich Eisen is.
He's been writing, reporting, hosting, and basically discussing sports for 25 years on newspapers, TV networks, ESPN, and most notably, the NFL Network. As his appearances on NFL Network have become less and less frequent, he's been spending more time on his pet project, the "Rich Eisen Show".

What is the Rich Eisen Show?The Rich Eisen Show is a three hour show on DirectTV's Channel 239 that plays from Noon to 3 PM every Monday through Friday.
What do they discuss on Eisen's show?
That's the best part... Anything.
Sure, the show has a NFL focus, but they often change subjects to address pop culture and frequently have celebrity guests like Tom Hanks and even Matt Damon on the show,
How can I listen?
As I mentioned earlier, you can catch Eisen's show on DirectTv every day between Monday and Friday, but there's another way to enjoy it. If you have an iPod, iPhone, or iAnything, you can download Eisen's show as a podcast and take it on the road with you.

It's a ton of fun to listen to, it's really easy to listen to, and as someone who is almost always on the road, it helps make the long trips fly by. Eisen's passion for the sport, as well as obvious charisma are well utilized and he has no problem bantering with guest or tackling the serious issues.
For any fan of football, pop culture, or even podcasts really, Eisen's show is a must-listen. I'm a bit of a podcast addict, and while many shows are inconsistent, Eisen's is almost always great, and I'm rarely disappointed.
