How many MMA radio podcasts are out there?
- Thread starter Nastycrow
- Start date
Because he's also a friend to the fellas (and has Captain Morgan on from time to time), I'd point folks towards Mauro Ranallo's podcast. He has a live show @ 1PM PST/4PM EST, but I'm usually AFK when he streams. Good content that includes boxing and pro wrestling along with MMA and good interviews if you're a Mauro fan.
more important than how many are out there, how many good ones are out there?
junkie is my mainline, nothing is better... but i also listen to josh gross and jordan breen... both those dudes bring it for real... super knowledgeable insights on all aspects of the game. highly recommended.
this question is definately for me since I think i'm the only one in this forum that listens to almost every single podcast out there everyday.
THe best are:
Junkie radio
The Lights Out Show
Gross Pointe Blank with Josh Gross
"It's time with bruce buffer"
the savage dog show
mma sunday school
beatdown
the jordan breen show
mma weekly soundoff radio
in that exact order in my opinion, I fast foward through a bunch of them. Can't stand listening to TJ desantis whine about everything, Josh Gross is very good and gets great scoops before most, Jordan is good when he has a good guest on and for breakdowns but can be a little boring, the savage dog show is either hilarious or really boring, MMA sunday school is hilarious, but they rarely talk about MMA,MMA weekly's soundoff is by far the worst audio u could every listen to, they must do their audio in a phone booth or something and the It's time with bruce buffer is always fun to listen to because he has great guest and u get an inside view of being inside the UFC.
I can not stand Mauro show. I started listening because Ariel is on it sometimes but I just can not stand Mauro. I have probably given most of the podcasts a try. MMAjunkie is the best, then MMA hour with Ariel and then on satellite is Sirius Fight Club with Phil Devine, Randy Gordon & Ariel. Oh and I like Buffer's show if he is interviewing someone good. If it is about poker then I pass.
I can't stand the Sherdog guys. Dog Show is bearable, but the Beatdown guys are horrible. They all act like they're experts in the sport and everyone else are below them. They also talk about how each upcoming UFC is boring and how most of the fights are pointless. Breen leads this opinion with his hollier then thou attitude and TJ just goes along with whatever he says.

thanks Kim
I have listened to all the shows listed. Junkie is best by far. Breen is right under Junkie....I used to not like his show, but after Laimon always talked about it, I gave it anther chance and catch every show. He is really good. I don't like the TapouT show, Beatdown, Savage, Mauro, but don't mind Buffer when he has a good guest.

Breen is very smart, almost too smart for most people and can come across as a guy who think his crap don't stink to most people, the tapout show is like listening to 3 12 year olds talk about mma and be stupid, and buffer is very good, but u can definately tell who's pay his check by his opinions
Yeah Sherdog guys come off way too "know it all". I think they are very disrecprectful to the callers as if they are Gods gift to MMA. I will admit Jordon Breen probably does know more about MMA than any host but he just knows so much that it comes off as .........."nerdy". They have this one annoying caller named Brandon, that ends his calls with random matchups that are just ment to be obvious jokes that only he thinks is funny. After he hangs up Jordon Breen will sometimes break down these obvious joke fights.......its just dumb. This caller got on my nerves so much that I had to stop listening. Then I found Junkie and the laid back style they have and the most entertaining caller on any show.........viva CWBBB

I agree...Brandon from NJ is maybe the worst thing to listen to, besides Eric from Atlanta who is a wanna-be Brandon...he tries to sound just like him. Breen is really cool though, and MMA needs minds like him. Some people just love the technical aspect and Breen is able to really break down things that most MMA heads would just give some vanilla response to. He does give much respect to all callers.....Beatdown on the other hand are very rude to callers and that is what shut me out to their show, as well as the voices/personalities of Lotfi and Jack....they are not good. TJ is really cool on Breen's show IMO.

#1 to all of this. Breen is my #1 podcast to listen too. When i listen to Junkie, Savage, or Beatdown (occasionally Buffer) i can do dishes, clean the house, do Homework and what not, but when i listen to Breen i devote all my attention to his podcast. Listening to his takes are very insightful. Gross is also very real but the 30 minute show gets me mad. I would enjoy a longer show with him. Tapout show makes me want to scream so i avoid it. Mauro is my back up plan if i really want another podcast for the weekend. But as i said Breen is #1 for MMA breakdowns, and when Brandon comes up just skip past him you wont miss much
there's a bunch of good ones. i just don't have enough free time during the day to listen to them all. i pick and choose, usually on the basis of the guest. most of my time is used for scheduling, prepping, the show itself and then getting the word out about the show that just took place. i'll even listen to parts of the most recent show.
it's good getting feedback on what you like about other shows.

Junkie and Breen for me , also MMA Scraps on Monday because I listen to podcasts I'm always a day behind . Monday thru Saturday I listen in the mornings for work and Junkie , Breen and Scraps provide a great service with these podcasts . FM and Sattilite radio suck *** as far as the content i want and I'm very happy that i found these podcasts
