Men In Blazers: Early KickOff

(Men In Blazers / Wondery)

Early Kick Off is a daily 10-minute podcast bringing Men In Blazers’ audience of devoted US football fans a rundown of the game’s biggest stories and headlines.

THE BRIEF…

A new era for the USA’s premier football network.

In the summer of 2023, Men In Blazers approached Footwork Media with an enourmous challenge. How could we condense the dizzying speed of the football world into a 10 minute daily listen?

After plenty of work behind the scenes, we launched Early Kick Off, a daily 10 minute "everything you need to know today about football" podcast, published at 6am eastern time every day.

Hosted by our very own Sammy James, each morning we separate the wheat from the chaff, in order to bring Men In Blazers’ super-engaged football-loving audience an informative, entertaining and light-hearted look at all the football news from the previous 24 hours.

As the pod’s now famous catchphrase says; football don’t sleep, and neither do we.
