Honestly I haven’t found a podcast that talks about the Lions any better than this one. I like how short the episodes are and they cover everything you need to know. Love Dery and go Lions!!!!

John 890 · Sep 2025

Did not know that Matt had a Lions Podcast. But MAN AM I GLAD I KNOW NOW. You mean there is a rational, balanced take on the Lions that I can listen to without some radio personality telling me the Lions are done and maybe mediocre at best?!? I'm in for every episode and if you're a Lions fan with some enthusiasm and you're tired of someone telling you, you're a sloppy for being positive, this podcast is FOR YOU 🎉🤘🦁

I have been an every day listener since early 2021. I gave up my other Lion podcast because Matt is simply the best at telling it like it is and give us sound reasoning on everything Lions.

Great host and great podcast. Keeps us updated daily on all Lions info. Entertaining and sometimes amusing. Need this in the mornings. Thank you.

I have listened to this podcast for years and it does help me stay aware of what is happening with the team but Lions fans deserve better. When the host threatened to quite the podcast if the team lost again, I started listening to the host of the Lions opposing team and I learned three things. 1. They do so much more research. I understand this podcast is just his side hustle but it doesn’t feel like that for other locked on hosts. They do research of the opponents and film breakdowns to support their takes. Matt Dery does the PFF top and bottom five for offense and defense each week. He relies on guests to bring the informed takes and his “crack research staff” that I assumed he was saying as reference to his own research but then he clarified that they are real, he just wont name them. Probably because someone will ask them to take over the show if he really does shine the spotlight on them. 2. They are not all talk radio guys. Dery does bit radio with insider nicknames that he will not stop using like “Hall of Fields” implying that everyone thinks that Justin Fields will go to the hall of fame when I have never heard that take from anyone even in Chicago media. He calls anzalone “gaines media posterboy” and nobody even knows what that means. 3. They adjust their opinions. He won’t let go of old takes. He has been calling the front office 222 rod wood drive for so long that now when GM Brad Holmes looks competent Rod Wood seems irrelevant. The show has the feel of a college coach that runs the same scheme until it is not effective anymore and he gets run out of town. I know Dery does great ad reads and has been with David Locke since the beginning, but Lions fans deserve real research, thoughtful takes, and something new.
