Pardon My Take

Pardon My Take is a two-host sports talk show produced by Barstool Sports, fronted by Big Cat and PFT Commenter, with a recurring supporting cast (including contributors referred to as Hank and Zach) who appear for running bits rather than as guests. The format is conversational and reactive: hosts open with a rundown of that day's or week's sports headlines, then move through discussion, interviews, and comedic segments. Coverage skews toward football and college basketball, with episodes clustering around major calendar events -- NFL conference championships and the Super Bowl, NCAA tournament rounds like the Sweet 16, and occasional Olympics coverage. Guests are typically NFL head coaches (examples in the sample include Houston Texans' D'Amico Ryans and a Giants-associated John Harbaugh appearance) or hockey-focused media figures such as Ryan Whitney and Paul Bissonnette, who appear together. A fixed rotation of named segments -- Who's Back of the Week, Hot Seat/Cool Throne, Guys on Chicks, Fastest Two Minutes, and Fyre Fest of the Week -- gives the show a repeatable internal structure across episodes. Episodes generally run 110 to 120 minutes and carry heavy, consistent sponsor integration, with DraftKings positioned as a presenting partner alongside recurring reads for Bombas and Bonchon. Tone is comedic and casual throughout, prioritizing banter and running jokes over scripted or data-driven sports commentary. The show is best suited to listeners who already follow NFL and college basketball closely and want games discussed informally rather than broken down analytically. Because content is tied to the live sports calendar, episode topics shift with the season -- football-heavy in fall and winter, tournament basketball in spring.
