The Next Round features Jim Dunaway, Ryan Brown, Lance Taylor and Rockstar as they discuss the latest stories in sports and entertainment. Come for the sports, stay for the humor and when the final song plays, you'll be longing for more.
The Next Round podcast is a show that I never miss on weekdays. Having listened to them for over a decade, I can confidently say that they are the poster children for doing a podcast right. The weekly interviews with guests such as Wimp, Todd Fuhrman, Clay Travis, and others keep the show fresh and exciting. I first discovered them when I lived in Birmingham many years ago and caught them on WJOX. Since then, I have continued to listen to them online and love their new format since they went on their own.
One of the best aspects of The Next Round podcast is the talent, knowledge, chemistry, and ability of the hosts to not take themselves too seriously. They have created a show that sets the standard in sports radio. Their sound quality is top-notch, leaving FM radio and most other podcasts in the dirt. The ads on the show are necessary to pay the bills, but they are never overwhelming or excessive. In fact, compared to terrestrial broadcasts, it feels like there are fewer ads per hour. This allows more time for engaging content and discussions.
On the downside, some listeners may find that The Next Round podcast has too many ads. However, this is a minor inconvenience considering how well the hosts deliver their content and keep listeners entertained. Additionally, with podcasts, it is easy to fast forward through ads if desired.
In conclusion, The Next Round podcast is without a doubt one of the best shows out there for sports fans, especially those who love football. They provide comprehensive reviews and previews of games from all angles while also incorporating robust gambling previews from LT every week. What sets this show apart is not just its sports talk but also its hilarious off-topic conversations that keep listeners entertained throughout the four-hour show. Having listened to these guys for years now, it feels like they are part of my daily life. I highly recommend diving into The Next Round podcast for an enjoyable listening experience.

When Stephen A. Smith sees Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Kalen DeBoer, he doesn't see the rightful heir to the Nick Saban dynasty. And, the ESPN personality made that painfully clear once more, but with a caveat. “I'm not a fan of Kalen DeBoer as the successor to Nick Saban. I have no problem with him as a football coach,” Smith said on Monday's edition of The Paul Finebaum Show on SEC Network.

Alabama Football enters a pivotal offseason as Kalen DeBoer begins shaping the next era in Tuscaloosa — and the stakes couldn't be higher. In this episode, the hosts break down why it's a positive sign that neither Alabama quarterback transferred, despite heavy portal movement elsewhere. DeBoer publicly called it a win, but the panel isn't convinced everything is perfect — especially up front, where Alabama may have lost too many offensive linemen to the transfer portal. The conversation centers on the QB competition between Austin Mack and Keelon Russell. Mack is viewed as a talented but still hard-to-evaluate option, while Russell's arm talent stands out immediately, with the hosts saying his ball comes off “like dynamite.” Ultimately, they agree the job will come down to mental processing, command of the offense, and comfort in DeBoer's system. The show also dives into Alabama's offensive line coaching change, explaining why the previous staff was replaced after multiple underwhelming seasons. New O-line coach Adrian Klemm arrives with a strong résumé as a run game coordinator and a track record of elevating line play — something the hosts agree Alabama desperately needed. From there, the discussion shifts to the NFL, where the panel calls it “embarrassing” that Bill Belichick was not elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, especially given Clem's ties to Belichick and his coaching tree. The episode wraps with a pair of powerful Alabama stories: Jake Coker recounts running into former coach Dameyune Craig at the Senior Bowl and reflects on how Craig fought to get him scholarship opportunities at both Florida State and Alabama. A tribute to Eddie Conyers, who passed away at 97 after serving as a referee at Alabama practices for nearly 60 years, including a classic Nick Saban story involving a flag Conyers had to pick back up after getting chewed out. From quarterback intrigue to coaching changes and Crimson Tide history, this is a must-watch conversation for any Alabama Football fan.
