About Inside Curling with Kevin Martin & Jim Jerome
Inside Curling is a curling show with its elbows on the table. It has the feel of a live postgame conversation that kept going after the cameras should have stopped. Kevin Martin and Jim Jerome bring a friendly, familiar rhythm to the sport, mixing big-event recap with personal memory, guest interviews, and practical reads on how games actually turn. The talk moves fast. It also loops, corrects itself, and circles back, which gives the show a lived-in sports-radio texture rather than a polished feature-interview feel. Recent episodes are packed with Games aftermath from Italy, including Canadian medal runs, final-game analysis, and the emotional strangeness of winning on the biggest stage. Brad Jacobs comes through as a reigning Olympic champion, with the show lingering on the thrill and crash after victory. Matt Dunstone arrives with a Brier championship ring and the easy familiarity of a repeat guest. Xenia Schwaller’s world title becomes part of a wider discussion about curling’s growth on the world stage. Cory Thiesse and Korey Dropkin bring the mixed doubles silver-medal story, from extra luggage to team clothing to the broader American Olympic result. The show is comfortable getting technical. Ends are replayed. Shot choices are second-guessed. Missed chances are treated with sympathy and precision. It is just as interested in the machinery around the sport: funding, sponsorship, travel, high-performance programs, retirement timing, and how full-time curling changes the competitive map. The tone stays warm even when the analysis gets pointed. There are jokes, tangents, sponsor breaks, and little bursts of awe when Olympians describe what they have just lived through. For curling fans, that combination is the hook. It respects the scoreboard, but it also understands the long season behind it.
Made for: For curling fans who want more than scores: tactical breakdowns, Games context, champion interviews, and informed curling-room banter. It especially suits listeners who already follow Canadian curling, the Brier, and international competition.
What sets it apart: The show stands out because its technical reads come wrapped in casual familiarity, personal memory, and immediate post-event emotion. It can move from a joke to a precise end-by-end breakdown without changing rooms.
