  • Best duo in Vols Sports analysis

    I’ve been listening to both Josh and Swain for years, Josh did a great job previously hosting the Locked on Vols podcast and Swain brings his entertaining style and commentary from The Swain Event, which I also loved! Together, they are ying and yang and perfectly complement one another in style and substance. Sometimes their banter is like an old married couple it cracks me up!

  • Josh and Swain are awesome!

    Been a long time listener to Josh Ward on WNML, and his show is fantastic. Love the Vols and all the angles they provide on my favorite team. VFL Swain has added a new dynamic, and the duo’s charisma is entertaining to say the least. They cover a wide base in the sporting world including the lighter side of sports; whatever you’re interested in, they will likely discuss it. Highly recommend!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Josh & Swain - Hour 2 (5.5.26)
Q: What do you say to those that are a little hesitant to jump in to the deep water of big expectations, Final Four expectations for next season?
Swain responds that it's natural to fear big expectations, but the approach should be to embrace the challenge, rely on the roster's talent, and trust the coaching staff to guide the team to perform at the highest level.
Austin Price - VolQuest (5.6.26)
Q: What impact do you think Derrick Owings will have in year one and beyond?
Owings brings discipline and toughness to workouts, which could translate into fewer penalties and higher efficiency; together with Knowles, they are part of a joint effort to elevate the program.
Austin Price - VolQuest (5.6.26)
Q: How does the comparison between the football and basketball recruiting momentum look to you right now?
Basketball has shown standout momentum under Rick Barnes with transfer portal targeting and scoring needs, while football is building a similar level of roster building and development across positions.
Austin Price - VolQuest (5.6.26)
Q: Austin, how aggressive is Tennessee willing to be with the pay scale to land David Gabriel Georges and beat out Ohio State?
The approach will be to do whatever is necessary financially to land him, aligning the financial package with Tennessee's needs and the overall recruitment strategy.
Braden Gall - 440 Sports (5.6.26)
Q: Is there a position you want to see the Titans address during the off season?
Interior offensive line stands out as lacking, with a plan to add depth through free agents and rookies, plus potential upgrades at cornerback to strengthen the back end of the defense.
