Underdog Welcomes New Shows

Welcome to the Underdog Podcast Network

It’s been a long road to get where we are today.

In 2015, Deep-ish Thoughts was founded.  It was a site that was lucky enough to find an audience quickly.  We spent two years covering all the latest news in the sports world, while also producing thought-provoking feature articles.

In 2017, we had made the tough decision to go through a corporate restructuring which saw not only changes in leadership, but also in our core philosophies.   Our website was re-branded as Underdog Sports, and while our team of incredibly talented writers still covered the entire sports world, we also set down a path that would lead us to sweeping changes.

Over the next three years, we began to write less, and podcast more.  Getting us to the point where the Underdog Sports Podcast network became one of the most formidable networks of its kind.  Now, in 2021, we officially change into our final form — Underdog Podcasts.  Articles are officially a thing of the past for us as we focus on growing our catalog of podcasts.  No longer just a sports network, Underdog Podcasts now boasts 40+shows, spanning numerous different categories — with other shows in the pipeline.

We’re always looking for great new podcasts. If you’re an established show looking for a new home or just a person with an idea, consider joining our team.

Here are some of our newest shows:

• Hosted by Quincy Hicks and Edgar Martin. We cover everything from sports, to films, and current events.

Tech you dream about.  Shelly Palmer and Seth Everett cover topics that mean a lot to those in the tech space and those who just love tech. Learn what’s new, what’s next, and what it means for you and your business.  Could Batman’s toys exist in the real world? Is Star Trek still science fiction, or has it become science fact?

• The show that puts your favorite (or not so favorite) everyday expressions under a microscope and into the hot seat. Tune in as Mario and his special guests dive into the meanings and origins of common sayings, expressions, and idioms. We may introduce you to a few too! Once it’s all said and done, will these sayings live up to their common usage or will they crash and burn from some investigation? Join us as we take a moment to appraise the phrase!

• Two hardcore Portland Trailbazlers fans, Blazersland Editor Chris Craig and “Bones” actor Eric Millegan discuss all things basketball.
