iHeartPodcasts and The Volume


100% unfiltered Colin. He delivers his no-holds-barred takes and instant reactions to the biggest stories in sports.


The Colin Cowherd Podcast

Colin is joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to talk all things football.
 
They start with the renewed discussions between Notre Dame & USC to potentially revive their rivalry after many top schools won’t schedule Notre Dame and why the new NIL business model of college sports & their lack of quality opponents has forced Notre Dame to the table (2:00). They also react to an ex UNC quarterback’s disparaging comments about the atmosphere Bill Belichick created and explain why the “Patriot Way” doesn’t work with 18 year olds (8:30).
 
They move to the NFL & discuss the weird situation developing between the Steelers and still unsigned Aaron Rodgers amongst some of their other strange personnel decisions, and Colin predicts the Steelers could be an absolute mess within five years (16:30). 
 
They react to a recent article by The Athletic ranking the top NFL rosters and debate whether the Bills deserve to be ranked at #3 (28:00). Finally, they pivot to NFL win totals, and give their thoughts on the Patriots, 49ers, Vikings, Packers, Bengals and more (34:00).

Kevin Durant’s Future? Will Wemby Be Face Of The NBA? NFL Win Totals

Colin’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down the NBA playoffs.
 
They start with the Celtics being upset by the 76ers and they discuss Boston’s dependence on their “system”, why that system fell apart when Jayson Tatum can’t play, and why Joel Embiid created massive problems for the Celtics defensively (3:00). They also preview the upcoming series between the Knicks and Sixers (15:30). 
 
They move to the western conference and Colin argues the Lakers win over the Rockets put the exclamation point on the argument that LeBron is better than Kevin Durant, and the series showed the gap between the two is bigger than ever (24:45). 
 
They pivot to the Timberwolves knocking off the Nuggets, and they debate whether we’ve been underrating the Wolves team & organization for years (35:30), and whether a young & inexperienced Spurs team can be trusted in the postseason (39:30). 
 
Colin argues the Nuggets need to shake things up and make some major moves in order to get over the hump and Jason suggests they look into acquiring CJ McCollum in order to move off Jamal Murray and finding an athletic forward to fill the role a younger Aaron Gordon filled (43:30).

Sixers Upset Celtics, LeBron Finds A Way To Win, Wolves Are Underrated, Nuggets Need To Re-Tool

Colin’s top takes of the week.
 
First, he’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the NFL Draft.
 
They begin by discussing the backlash to the Bears taking speedster Zayvian Johnson and Colin explains that if any coach picked him, it may not be a great pick…but with Ben Johnson as coach it can work (2:30). 
 
They move to the Rams & Colin argues that while their draft won’t grade well… outside of Ty Simpson, the Rams are drafting for the near term while they still have Matt Stafford and John believes Simpson wasn’t talented enough to justify the 13th pick (8:30) and Colin lauds the Cowboys for focusing on improving their defense as well by getting the steal of the draft in Caleb Downs (13:30). 
 
Then, Colin is joined by legendary sportswriter, commentator and the Director of Sports Journalism at Northwestern University, J.A. Adande to talk about his new sports podcast with Chuck Todd called “Dynastic”, which does deep dives into some of the most legendary franchises in sports history.
 
They begin with the LIV Tour looking like it’s going belly up and why it wasn’t treated seriously by the broadcast networks & sports media. They discuss the questionable ethics of LIV being funded by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund and the potential of that type of money flowing into the coffers of other American sports leagues (21:30). 
 
Finally, they discuss the longstanding MJ vs LeBron debate and compare the major differences in the eras they play in, and J.A. explains that there were two different eras of Michael Jordan and how Jordan eventually became trapped by his fame (28:30).

They move to Dynastic choosing the 70s Steelers as one of their first dynasties to cover, and what J.A. learned about covering that team. J.A. explains how the Steelers were ahead of the curve on drafting from HBCUs and why being racially progressive was a huge reason for their success (10:30).

J.A. Adande On Steelers + Dodgers Dynasties, The Myth Of Michael Jordan, NIL, LIV Golf Crashes Out

Colin is joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the NFL Draft.
 
Colin begins by arguing that GM Brett Veach of the Chiefs drafts predictably & he can’t figure out 49ers GM John Lynch, and John explains that Lynch doesn’t run the 49ers draft… head coach Kyle Shanahan does (3:00).
 
They discuss the backlash to the Bears taking speedster Zayvian Johnson and Colin explains that if any coach picked him, it may not be a great pick…but with Ben Johnson as coach it can work (9:00).

They break down the Chiefs draft and why it made total sense for them to draft 3 defensive players with their three Top 40 picks (31:30), and Colin lauds the Cowboys for focusing on improving their defense as well by getting the steal of the draft in Caleb Downs (37:00). 
 
They debate whether Carson Beck will see the field for the Cardinals in his first season (45:00), and they each predict four teams that didn’t make the playoffs last season that will make the playoffs in 2026 (48:00).

Full NFL Draft Analysis & Reaction: Bears, Chiefs, Raiders, 49ers, Cowboys

Colin’s top takes of the week.
 
First, he’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the NFL Draft.
 
They start with the Rams drafting Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson at pick #13 and why it was shocking for them to pick him so high after a limited sample size in college, but Colin argues if anyone can turn Simpson into a great quarterback…it’s Sean McVay (3:00).
 
Colin heaps praise on the Cowboys for drafting Caleb Downs and highlights the massive upgrades Dallas has made to their defense rather than paying Micah Parsons (10:30). They agree that the Bucs got great value in taking Reuben Bain at #15 after experts projected him as a top 10 pick (13:45). 
 
They discuss the Chiefs moving up to #6 to take cornerback Mansoor Delane and both agree they had no issues with the trade up to get a much cheaper replacement for Trent McDuffie (15:00). Colin argues that both New York teams did well with their combined 4 first round picks and doesn’t see any busts in the group (18:30). 
 
Then, he’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight”
 
They discuss the controversy and backlash surrounding the NBA playoffs being paywalled behind streaming services and agree it’s no different than games being on cable TV (25:00) and what the league can do to address the epidemic of tanking (31:00)

Prime Cuts - NFL Draft Breakdown, Can The NBA Fix Tanking? Did Rams Reach For Ty Simpson?

Colin argues that both New York teams did well with their combined 4 first round picks and doesn’t see any busts in the group (23:00). 
 
They react to the Titans taking Ohio State WR Carnell Tate at #4, and John believes Tate was a massive reach and that Tate doesn’t have the elite upside that would justify such a high pick (26:00). They both believe that Kadyn Proctor is the most likely Top 15 pick to bust based on reports about his lack of work ethic (29:15). 
 
Colin predicts accurately that the Eagles would take USC wide receiver Makai Lemon after trading up, and says that it's the perfect move to patch the hole that will be left after the team trades AJ Brown (33:00). 
 
They discuss the overall quality of this first round draft class, note that it’s been very offensive line heavy and explain why you can’t go wrong drafting o-line in the first round (39:00). 
 
Finally, they discuss why the Big Ten is leaving the SEC in the dust when it comes to producing first round NFL talent and react live to the late first round picks for the Chargers, Cowboys & more (50:00+).

Colin starts with the Giants trading star defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence to the Bengals.

Then, Colin is joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down the NBA playoffs.
 
They start with the Lakers and Lebron James winning game 1 over the Rockets despite missing Luka Doncic and Austin Reeves and Colin highlights the Lakers defense showing up in a way that was missing during the regular season (12:00). They also discuss the potential impact on the series if/when Kevin Durant and Luka Doncic return from injury (23:00).
 
They pivot to the Celtics dominating the 76ers and Colin praises the Celtics organization for being able to retool their roster in one season and remain highly competitive. They point to great scouting and player development as the reason Boston has stayed great (29:00).

Finally, they discuss the new Jerry West documentary and Colin gives it two thumbs up (48:15) and they discuss why the NBA playoffs moving to streaming services was the correct move by the NBA, and debate the concerns over tanking and whether there’s anything the league can do about it (52:30).
