Austin sports talk with a wider lens.
The Sport Of Life Radio uses sports as the front door, then keeps walking into whatever Austin is talking about that week. Trey Elling moves from Longhorn football and Texans notes to comedy clubs, film premieres, music guests, parenting, youth sports, and local events without making the detours feel like detours.

The Sport Of Life Radio is a brisk Austin show that treats sports as home base rather than a fence. Trey Elling opens with the familiar rhythm of local ESPN radio: sponsor tags, weekend schedules, Longhorn updates, Texans notes, and a clear sense of what is happening around the city. Then the lane widens. A segment on recruiting can give way to youth sports philosophy, a golf film made by Austinites, a comedy festival appearance, or a musician who also happens to care deeply about the NFL Draft. That range is the show's personality. It does not abandon sports so much as let sports touch everything else people actually talk about after work. Longhorn football is one of the recurring anchors. Justin Wells of Inside Texas appears in its episodes as a regular Wednesday presence, bringing detailed recruiting and roster talk around Texas spring practice, Fan Fest, Arch Manning, Easton Royal, Cam Coleman, Ryan Wingo, and the mechanics of player development. The show is also comfortable arguing through coaching decisions and defensive staff changes without pretending every take is final. It thinks out loud. The Austin Supper Club pieces give the program another shape, placing conversations inside local spaces like Cap City Comedy Club, Crown and Anchor Pub, and Swingville. Those segments turn restaurants, bars, comedy rooms, golf simulators, and local businesses into part of the editorial map. Guests arrive from different corners. Andrew McCarthy talks about male friendship and the emotional pressure men can place on providing. Yakov Smirnoff reflects on fame, career fear, Branson, and the strange timing of public need. Art Alexakis brings Everclear, Seattle Seahawks fandom, and draft chatter into the same room. Corbin Bernson and Oliver Bernson bring a South by Southwest conversation about Woodstockers, family, filmmaking, presence, and getting kids out of phone-shaped habits. The show's best fit is a listener who likes sports radio but gets bored when it refuses to leave the box score. It is local, conversational, and sometimes loose around the edges. That looseness is part of the texture: a real-time Austin evening show where the city, the teams, and the guests all get to share the microphone.
Made for: For Austin-area sports fans who want Longhorn and Texans talk alongside comedy, music, movies, local venues, and smart guest conversations. It also suits listeners who like opinionated radio that can be funny, personal, and civic without turning into a pure news or culture show.
What sets it apart: The show's edge is its Austin-specific sprawl: sports headlines, recurring Longhorn analysis, local restaurant and venue visits, and entertainment interviews all live in the same format. It feels less like a national sports desk and more like a well-connected evening conversation around town.
A daily radio show on 102.7 ESPN Austin, dedicated to satirizing sports and human stupidity, as well as conducting conversations with entertaining people from all walks of life.
