The Fantasy Footballers Podcast covers all things fantasy football year-round and is one of the top sports podcasts on the charts. We spoke with Ballers co-host, Mike Wright, about his Nike SB collection and his advice for fantasy football players ahead of the 2021 NFL season.
The Fantasy Footballers origin story begins in 2013, when co-hosts Andy Holloway and Mike Wright – then working at third co-host Jason Moore’s game development software company – started a podcast purely focused on their fantasy football league together as friends and fellow Arizona dads. Realizing they had good chemistry and an opportunity to jump on the podcasting wave, they recruited Moore and quit their jobs to launch the show in 2014 – right after the Super Bowl in the fantasy football dead zone. The Ballers built the podcast into the undisputed leader in the industry, with a bigger audience than the fantasy shows from ESPN, CBS, NFL, Yahoo!, among others. They’re regularly the No. 1 sports podcast – one of the few true independents in the top 15 – leading into and during the NFL season with an audience numbering in the multi-millions.
