Podcasts about Miami, Florida

The same quarterback gets argued from different directions in clips from March and April. Dolphins in Depth reads the Malik Willis contract line by line: three years, $67.5 million, $22.25 million in signing bonus, a $2 million bonus due in March that amounts to an option year. On The Fish Tank: Miami Dolphins Tales From The Deep a question from someone named Bubba, why make cuts just to sign Willis, gets restructuring logic and a prediction that the push falls short. On Locked On Dolphins - Daily Podcast On The Miami Dolphins the contract is not the subject; Jeff Hafley telling Willis not to press is. That is Miami on PlayNext: a large stack of shows about one football team, then the Heat, the Hurricanes, the Marlins and Inter Miami, and behind them a smaller set about the city itself.

What Miami is

Miami is a city on the southeastern coast of Florida, on Biscayne Bay, and the seat of Miami-Dade County. It anchors one of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States and is known for its beaches, its port, its large Cuban and wider Latin American population, and its professional sports teams.

The Dolphins from several angles

Football is where the listening runs deepest, and the shows divide by what they treat as evidence. Locked On Dolphins works from scheme: its Hafley clip walks through why a four-down front and a three-four are the same defense built from different jersey numbers. Drive Time with Travis Wingfield is one voice working a draft board, with Sunny Styles as his number two overall player. Dolphins in Depth parses front-office language, John Eric Sullivan "looking to go down" rather than trade up, Achane's OTA absence as a play for "new money", and sounds like an argument being built live. The Fish Tank trades in old stories and blunt debate; its hosts argue Tua's decline came from injuries and public clashes. Miami Sports Pod, With Will & Clay has clips from 2020, when Tua to Miami was the worst kept secret; Will Manso and Clay Ferraro favor context over box-score reaction.

The Heat, and one play-in night

The Heat shows overlap on one night. The Miami Heat Beat Podcast plays its postgame from "678: Moose Was Right // Heat vs. Hornets Play-In Postgame Show", where Spoelstra says LaMelo Ball should have been ejected for tripping Bam Adebayo; the title run of Locked On Heat - Daily Podcast On The Miami Heat has the season ending on a LaMelo Ball game-winner the same date. Heat Beat is a live group chat that happens to know ball, and Kyle calls the Heat "middling" because the lineup, the coaching and the front office all need a reset. Locked On Heat is the numbers desk: the defense fell to 28th over a fifteen-game stretch as opponents hit 40.8 percent of threes, and David Romero compares Nikola Jovic's missed threes to "a plea to the heavens". Battered Heat Fans: A Miami Heat Podcast is game-by-game therapy, Tyler Herro's 30 points, nine assists and nine rebounds against the Hornets in March.

The Hurricanes in the offseason

On Locked On Canes - Daily Podcast On Miami Hurricanes Football & Basketball, Darian Mensah looks "super accurate" on day one of spring practice, and Leon Searcy lays out what Jackson Cantwell needs to seize a starting job, "repetition" and "five fingers together" into "a fist", with the program's standard put as "if you’re not great, don’t come." Five Reasons Canes Network is several shows under one name and sounds like a fan room stacking observations: Blue arguing the quarterback job is effectively settled once the staff pays for the veteran, Shelton Henderson's return making the basketball offseason a success, the women's basketball managers on practice setup, travel and cooler runs.

Baseball and soccer

Miami Marlins Podcast is the radio postgame, the 10th inning show with Jack McMullen on the Marlins Radio Network: result first, 10-4 over the Braves at Truist Park. The title run is one game date after another. Fish On First: A Miami Marlins podcast is the analytical counterpart, asking how the team improved by 17 wins despite a bad year from Sandy Alcantara and flagging Gio Rojas, a left-hander from Stoneman Douglas, as a potential top-10 pick. Battered Herons: An Inter Miami Podcast sounds like a supporters' table after the match. Its April clips cover the draw with Austin in the inaugural match at Miami Freedom Park, where an Austin defender, Guillermo Biro, scored the first goal. By September the title run is arguing with itself about a trophy, from "DOES THE CAMPEONES CUP EVEN MATTER? Inter Miami vs Cruz Azul | Trophy or Glorified Friendly?" to "INTER MIAMI ARE CHAMPIONS! Herons Beat Cruz Azul to Win Campeones Cup | Kily’s Dream Debut", with En Español editions alongside.

The city with no scoreboard

The shows about Miami itself do not resemble one another. This Day in Miami History Podcast files each entry under a date and works from primary sources: its Doris Hart clip plays a 1951 Gaumont British newsreel over the story of her three Wimbledon finals in one day, and another has Mike Ryan Ruiz explaining how the Dan LeBatard show replaced caller-driven radio with texts and social media. Miami Comedy Podcast is Manny Garavito, a fast-talking street comic piling on local references until the bit is overstuffed on purpose: Art Basel as a Miami holiday, the New Year's Eve rooftop after $1,500 on a table for four with two empty chairs, the Fountain Arches recast as the city's billion-dollar BBL. Miami Real Estate Podcast, from Cervera Real Estate with Omar DeWitt hosting, is about the business of selling the place, with a 2021-2022 title run on the Underline, Surfside and housing premiums. Cold Case Files: Miami, from iHeartPodcasts, is the grave one, three unsolved homicides told through the people left behind: Natrice Christian refusing to let Laurance Webb's hospital bed define her after nine gunshots, Annabelle Herrera explaining why neighbors stayed silent after Bryan's murder despite hearing the shot.
