The Ultimate Podcast For Sneakers & All Things 90’s Nostalgia!

I’ve definitely found my little corner of the sneaker internet with this podcast, Rahbee, Rohit, Nick, & their rotating list of guests always have fun discussions that include ALL types of sneakers!

Shineball. ,

The Best Sneaker Podcast

Imagine your top 4 guests that you would want on a sneaker podcast, but they actually host the podcast.

Really refreshing to listen to a podcast talking about the substance behind sneakers rather than the hype. Listen to an episode and you'll immediately sense how much apprecation and knowledge these guys have for sneakers.

Really awesome community on discord too!
