If you’re a sports fan, you’re probably using multiple sources of information to stay in the loop. You could be using an app, watching a TV show or listening to a podcast. Seeing how TV is becoming less and less popular over the years, and sports apps are mostly for tracking scores or reading already stale news, we thought we’d talk to you about podcasts.
Sports podcasts are simple, fun shows that many sports fans and enthusiasts around the world enjoy on the daily basis. Some exist for quite some time and the others are coming up through the ranks slowly, but surely. Today, we wanted to talk to you about some of those new, up and coming podcasts that you or your buddies might find enjoyable.
1. ProFootballTalk With Mike Florio
Mike Florio is a household name in all of football. He’s an Emmy awarded journalist and TV host, now running his show at PFT.

An average episode lasts for about 50 minutes and you can expect Mike to talk to coaches, league executives, players and fellow journalists about our favourite sport.
2. Cut To It featuring Steve Smith Sr.
Baltimore and Carolina legend Steve Smith Sr. has teamed up with his co-host Gerard Littlejohn to deliver some of the most entertaining stories with your favourite athletes. This is a sports podcast, but in a different setting. Instead of always talking about sport, the hosts of this podcast ask rather tough, personal questions, such as, would you rather fight a bear or a hundred ducks and if that’s not something you’re just dying to learn – we don’t know what is. Knowing Steve Smith Sr. and his dedication to his craft, this podcast could very well become one of the most beloved sports podcasts in the world, so 2021 could be their year.
3. The Pat McAfee Show
Pat McAfee is an absolute stud, both on and off the court and is already a household name in the sport-show/sport-podcast world. If you somehow still haven’t checked out McAfee’s show – we suggest you do. You can watch it on YouTube or just listen to it on the radio, that’s entirely up to you, but you would be missing out if you weren’t watching it. Pat and the boys are always hyped, they’re always ready for some new, intriguing topics and most of the time you can hear the breaking news mid-show, just because it’s, well, breaking news. And oh, NFL legend A.J. Hawk, Mr Jawline himself, is a regular on the show, as well as some other household NFL names like Aaron Rodgers.

7. That Peter Crouch Podcast

If you’re a football fan or a soccer fan as the US guys like to call it, you should listen to this show. Crouchy was never the one to shine away from the spotlight, whether he liked it or not and once again he’s proven that if you don’t take yourself too seriously good things will happen to you.

It’s Always Us is a great podcast where hosts talk to disgruntled fans that share their opinion on why their team has always had the worst luck of all. As you can see, the topic alone makes this a must-follow and the fact that it’s one episode per month makes it that you have no excuse whatsoever to listen to it. It’s always fun to hear people arguing why their club has had it worse than yours, right?
