- I’m back for my yearly punishment…
UPDATE MAY 1,
2026: I am once again a regular listener and interested in the white Sox…except, I can’t find them anywhere on TV anymore!
Last year has by far been the least I’ve ever followed the team due to a combo of their play and personal issues. This is my first return to any Sox podcast for about 9-10 months. I wouldn’t kick it off with any other show to get caught up on the Good, Bad and Ugly than Sox Machine!

United States3 months ago - I listen every week, but…
I’m a subscriber and have been so ever since James joined a couple of seasons ago. I listen to the pod every week as it is the most insightful White Sox podcast the only gripe that I really have is with Josh Nelson and the way he speaks during the podcast. Someone had mentioned this in our previous review three years ago so I’m going to repeat what they said since they said it way better than I could:
Josh is weirdly formal with the way he speaks saying the 2026 Chicago White Sox every time or ... more

Apple Podcasts5Deadhead-Dan10United States6 months ago - Go to for balanced White Sox analysis
Jim, Josh and James have a good balance of takes for White Sox fans. My sense is that Josh is generally more optimistic, Jim is the straight man, and James is a bit of a cynic (in a good way). I like that James is a legit beat writer who is around the clubhouse and occasionally goes on the road with the team. It’s good to get an inside perspective on things that is from a more neutral source than the “official” podcast or Merkin.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sox Machine
What is Sox Machine about and what kind of topics does it cover?
A data-driven sports podcast focusing on deep dives into a single MLB franchise. Episodes frequently blend on-site reporting, advanced statistics, and organizational context to dissect team performance, injuries, roster moves, and prospects. Fans can expect thorough game-by-game breakdowns, long-term roster planning, and candid clubhouse insights from beat reporters, front office staff, and players-in-waiting. A standout is the strong emphasis on prospect development and bullpen strategy, often balanced with humor and deferential respect for the source material. This show likely appeals to listeners who want sharp analysis, access to insider perspectives, and a steady stream of up-to-date team context rather than broad national coverage.
