by Sports Needle Productions

Sports shows are great. ESPN, or Fox Sports, has all you need to get updated on the latest and greatest in the sports world. But once you watch one show, you've heard it all.

From specific coverage of the Seattle area, discussions on various topics around the league that most shows don't cover, to a world-class array of guests -from athletes, to comedians, to sports fans turned entrepreneurs- giving you insight into the world that not even Sportscenter can compete with, The Sports Needle Podcast has got you covered. Each episode only grows in quality as we learn more!
