Our Editor's Take

People looking to stay up to date with the world of sports will feel right at home with PTI. This podcast is the audio version of the popular TV sports talk show Pardon the Interruption.

But the appeal of the podcast goes way beyond sports. That's due to the hosts' unique and entertaining dynamic. The friendly rivalry between Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon inspired the show. The two journalists used to give each other a hard time when they both worked as writers at The Washington Post. Audiences know and adore them for their signature antics. This includes frequent and hilarious on-air quarrels. PTI audiences come for the sports news and stay for the high-energy exchanges between the two.

Kornheiser is also the host of his own podcast, The Tony Kornheiser Show. Besides cohosting the PTI podcast, Wilbon is an analyst on ESPN. Pardon the Interruption has amassed three Sports Emmy Awards for Best Daily Outstanding Studio Show.

This podcast is a must-listen for everyone who loves sports and those who can't resist a charming and eccentric pair of hosts. Listeners have the opportunity to listen every day with the podcast. Episodes are all under 30 minutes in length and drop daily.
