Stadio: A Football Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Speaking as someone who works in sports podcasting, I have learned so much from Stadio. Not just in their discussion of football, either. I have learned about being an upstanding member of my community, how to lead with empathy and questioning. Stadio welcomes all people from all walks of life at all different stages of their football fandom. They never gatekeep, and always make me laugh. I adore this show; long may it live!

I listen consistently, knowing I will hear two knowledgeable and enthusiastic followers of the game talk intelligently and sometimes passionately (maybe often passionately) about a game they love. That they are also clear-eyed about the challenges the game faces is what makes me confident that the time and interest I spend on the game can have more value than filling an idle hour.

There’s not really much else that can be said, this is simply the best football podcast out there. It should be essential listening for any football fan. Ryan and Musa frame the discourse so thoughtfully and charitably; it has genuinely changed/informed how I engage with the beautiful game.

This is a deeply enjoyable show. Musa and Ryan are a delightful hosting pair. They bring unique personality and analysis to football. Yes, I will listen to a 4 hour examination of which footballers are most like The Wire characters.

Love this show.
