  • 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! I live in Dayton Ohio but made a point of stopping by the live show when I was in town for a football game and they co... more

  • 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!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Josh & Swain - Hour 2 (10.29.25)
Q: What do you think about Tennessee's defense against Oklahoma?
The focus must be on stopping the run before containing their QB Sean Mattier.
Josh & Swain - Hour 2 (10.29.25)
Q: Can you explain why Joey Aguilar is not getting more attention?
There's debate about whether his system and big performances during less-publicized games are behind his lack of recognition.
Josh & Swain - Hour 3 (10.30.25)
Q: Are we going to have to look, take a hard look at what we're doing coaching wise with our staff?
If he was willing to do that, then he has to be willing to take a hard look at everybody else too—defense, coaching wise, personnel wise, everything.
Josh & Swain - Hour 3 (10.30.25)
Q: Do we really have an excuse for that? Is it bad coaching? Is it bad schemes? Is it bad effort? What are we looking at?
I'm not going to give you an excuse because you're not that bad just because McCoy Rick Gibson is out. Like, no, man, we're not playing good enough. We're not coaching good enough. The effort can be better.
Josh & Swain - Hour 3 (10.30.25)
Q: What was it, particularly, that Alabama was doing to keep us from taking a deep shot during that football game?
They were playing over the top on Chris Broussell, which is why you saw Mike Matthews have a catcher two on the outside.
