Podcasts about Dallas, Texas

Partway into Cowboys Break: Back Into The Third Round, a contract question becomes a courtroom. Tommy defends, a colleague prosecutes and Derek Eagleton presides. The case is whether George Pickens is "truly a Cowboys cornerstone or just a luxury." Everyone is told it is role-play. It is a real argument about franchise tags and cap space, and one advocate is accused of guessing in court. The scene is a fair key to Dallas listening now. The sports feeds treat the city's teams as an open trial over what a player, a draft pick or an owner's promise is worth.

The Cowboys dominate that docket, through shows made by the club, beat reporters, The Ticket and fan crews. Meanwhile, Mavericks and Stars show titles point to a lottery pick and a first-round playoff exit. The city has been setting prices of its own. In September 2026 Dallas approved a $5.66 billion operating and capital budget, and the city said its combined police and fire budget rose by $82.3 million. In May 2026, by Dallas ISD's account, voters approved a $6.2 billion school bond. Beyond sport, the shows here come at cost from the side: a ministry raising money for a building, a business series asking what office space fetches.

What Dallas is

Dallas is in northern Texas. Its development as a transportation hub, industrial and financial center and inland port helps explain its business-oriented identity. The city itself had an estimated 1,329,491 residents in July 2025, a figure for the city rather than the wider Dallas–Fort Worth region. The Texas page covers the state around it.

The Cowboys, from the team's microphones outward

Cowboys Break, Talkin' Cowboys and the umbrella feed Dallas Cowboys Podcasts credit themselves as productions of DallasCowboys.com and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club, so weigh their access against that ownership. It does not make them deferential. In Cowboys Break: Most Underrated Draft Need, the panel weighs Stephen Jones saying no team had called about Pickens, and one voice replies, "To me, it's a negotiation."

The umbrella feed is the widest table, with Somos Cowboys Radio beside the English shows. Cowboys StoryLine: Shouting Out Loud is Nick Eatman's thank-you to his callers. He names an all-StoryLine squad with captains such as Sergeant Sue and Irene, plus an international unit led by Mike from England. Joe in Stanford says it took him 169 calls to get through.

Jacques Talk pairs Jean-Jacques Taylor with his producer, Big Joe in the Big Rig. Early in Episode 340: A smorgasbord full of sports, the episode number becomes a jersey-number riff. The host calls Bill Bates for 40 a biased pick "because we live in Dallas."

One Star Cowboys Podcast, with The Athletic's Jon Machota and Saad Yousuf and host Kevin "KT" Turner, is the comic, skeptical option. The 1st Annual JERRY AWARDS nominates Brian Schottenheimer for Cowboy Quote of the Year, for answering a question about the sun at AT&T Stadium with talk of satellite imaging.

The Ticket's Cowboys Ranch Report collects segments from the station's shows. One of the warmest is Cowboys Ranch Report; The Hardline- 8-27-26 Cold Open; Corby & Bob offends Charles Haley. Haley remembers being "short and fat" in high school and hearing his mother call from the bleachers, "why ain't my boy playing?"

At the loud end, Cowboys Raw & Uncut is a five-man crew with strong language. In Cowboys Chaos?! Arrest, Trades & Draft Decisions, gas-price griping gives way to fatigue with Jerry Jones and the plea "why can't we just focus on the football."

The Mavericks after the lottery

The titles of Mavs Step Back Podcast, hosted by Dalton Trigg and Drew Johnson, read as a diary of the spring:

• Cooper Flagg as rookie of the year
• the No. 9 pick
• Masai Ujiri hired as team president
• the parting with Jason Kidd

Mavs Step Back Podcast works at a personal scale. In MAVS TEMP CHECK: Cooper Flagg Settling In & Ryan Nembhard's Emergence, a host recalls recapping playoff games from his truck before he had reliable rural internet.

The sharpest line about the city comes from an older episode of 77 Minutes: A Podcast About the Dallas Mavericks. In Some quality Dirk Nowitzki stories, a speaker sets Nowitzki's loyalty against how easy loyalty is in Los Angeles. "Dallas is a city that often doesn't know what it is," the speaker says, and one that tries hard to figure it out.

Stars, soccer and the patient listen

Starcastic Remarks, the Chambers brothers' fan show, follows the Stars off the ice too, with recent titles on the move to Amazon Prime and a potential move to Plano. Hosting alone in Stars Collapse Defensively in 6-4 Loss to Devils | Episode 7042 | March 24, 2026, Ryan likens the defense to a cartoon character hiding underwater with a straw: "They were just trying to survive."

3rd Degree the Podcast is independent FC Dallas coverage, and it is slower and more granular. In 3rd Degree the Podcast #357, after a 4-0 win, a host praises Eric Quill's side for keeping its style: "play the way you play and make the other team adapt to you." A week later, 3rd Degree the Podcast #358 turns rueful: "when your goalie is man of the match that's never a good thing."

Offices, illness and the city talking to itself

D Magazine's EarBurner is a weekly conversation about North Texas issues, hosted by the magazine's editors, and it can turn personal. In 192: Joshua Ray Walker defends East Dallas, the guest describes being declared better after chemotherapy while still tiring easily, a "weird kind of shame, guilt combo."

Deconstructing Dallas, from Shawn Williams and Ryan Trimble, crosses politics and culture. In Mahiri Takai on Branding, Fatherhood & Building Something That Matters, the guest recalls cooking with his father during rehab and calls the kitchen "a healing space."

Texas Business Minds rotates through Austin, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio, which makes the Texas page its natural companion. In Dallas: Commercial Real Estate Veteran Bob Mohr - "Survive 2024 to Thrive in 2025", Mohr sets a deal he heard of at 60 dollars a foot near Frisco against space under 20 dollars in other markets. It is a quick picture of the spread in what offices fetch.

A ministry's own microphone

Dallas Metro Podcast belongs to the ministry it describes. Founder Clay Wallace interviews adults who grew up in its programs, along with staff and longtime friends. Both episodes below carry an appeal for a new building near the end.

In Dallas Metro Podcast (Episode #107) Featuring Special Guest Timothy Thomas, Thomas, now on staff, describes moving from West Dallas to East Dallas and beyond and finding Metro in the field each time: "Thought y'all were following me at one point." He also recalls a teenager's fear of eviction. In Dallas Metro Podcast Episode 113 ft. Special Guest Ebony Smith, Smith, the chairperson, remembers the groundbreaking and realizing "those kids were me." Hear it as testimony from inside an institution with a fundraising goal.

The long view

Jack Ruby - The Trial of the Century restages the 1964 trial as a newscast. In March 6 1964 - The State Rests, The Drama Begins. Day 3., reporters relay Sheriff Bill Decker's account of seven men overpowering a jailer and escaping into the courthouse's public areas. Podcast on Natural Dallas (The P.O.N.D.) studies the area's plants, animals, geology and climate. A Final Word From a Founder is a farewell about how those pieces fit together.
