The Volume, the sports-focused podcast network founded by sports media personality Colin Cowherd and presented by FanDuel, is teaming up with The Action Network to bring sports fans a slate of premium sports gambling podcasts.
Key components of the partnership include The Action Network talent contributing regularly to The Volume podcasts, and The Volume utilizing The Action Network app and editorial team's expertise to inform gambling conversations.
“For the past 20 years, I have been reading Chad Millman’s books and columns — more recently, I’ve started listening to his podcast, all with the goal of getting smarter about sports gambling,” said Colin Cowherd. “At The Action Network, Chad and his team have carved out a unique approach to sports gambling coverage. I’m excited to introduce The Action Network’s storytelling and analytical approach to The Volume’s audience.”
The Action Network’s Flagship podcast, The Favorites, will relaunch as part of The Volume Podcast Network on March 9. Millman, Action's Chief Content Officer, will continue to serve as host for the podcast, along with professional NFL bettor Simon Hunter. In addition, Millman will appear weekly on The Colin Cowherd Podcast to break down all things betting.
“Colin is driven, engaging and always interesting. But mostly he is passionate about connecting with his audiences. That’s how he’s conquered every platform he’s tried,” Millman said. “He has always recognized his fans love gambling, which is why we’re thrilled to partner with him as he brings that talent and drive to The Volume.”
