    I am so happy that John Sterling has a podcast! I’ve been listening to John since the 70’s when he was on WMCA! Met him and got his autograph when he was announcing hockey games on the radio at Madison Square Garden! Still has an amazing voice! Awesome podcast! Love it!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The John Sterling Show | 11-22-25
Q: What do you think about Dart, and do you see him as a potential franchise quarterback for the Giants?
He has injected energy into that team, which I think they lacked, showing toughness and leadership ability.
The John Sterling Show | 11-22-25
Q: Where did Calhoun coach before Connecticut?
He was at Northeastern.
The John Sterling Show | 11-22-25
Q: Now, when I left, of course, traffic was terrible, so I left early, but Yale had a very good lead. What happened in the second half?
Neither team could really stop the other, but Yale had that 17-0 cushion in the first quarter, and they ended up winning by 17, 45 to 28.
Suzyn Waldman | 11-15-25
Q: What happens with Trent Grisham?
I think the Yankees have to decide if his last year was an outlier or if that's who he is. They have to consider their minor leagues while making the decision.
Suzyn Waldman | 11-15-25
Q: What do you think about the Yankees looking to sign Cody Bellinger?
I think they're going to sign Cody Bellinger. He deserves it and he was as important a person on this team as anybody this year.
