Adam Sandler Podcasts

The best Adam Sandler listening falls into two camps: podcasts that use individual films to argue about his work, and conversation shows that treat him as the reason to settle in for a loose, personality-led hour. There is genuine coverage here, though much of it comes as a one-off episode rather than a sustained run. The exception is a small group of movie podcasts willing to build an entire format around the choices.

Start with the films

The Good, the Bad, and the Nerdy Movie podcast offers the clearest comparison. Its Adam Sandler series places one film under “The Good” in UNCUT GEMS . The Good (Adam Sandler series), then sends another through its less flattering side in That's My Boy . The Bad & Nerdy (Adam Sandler series). That split makes the show useful for listeners who want an argument, not a ceremonial appreciation. Begin with whichever label you are most tempted to dispute.

There’s Sometimes a Buggy takes a tighter curatorial approach. Special Subject - Valentine's Day 2026 - Adam Sandler Valentine - THE WEDDING SINGER (1998) and PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE (2002) turns the subject into a two-film Valentine’s pairing. It is the strongest on-ramp if you would rather hear two movies placed in direct conversation than work through a broad survey.

The Nostalgic Front Podcast goes broader and rowdier with Episode 527 - March Madness Adam Sandler Film Bracket with Mike Mercadal: Part Two. Its loose comedian-to-comedian rhythm suits the bracket conceit: opinions become matchups, disagreements become fuel, and the pleasure lies in hearing preferences collide. The “Part Two” matters, though. This is a continuation, so listeners who dislike entering halfway through an ongoing bit may want one of the self-contained episodes first.

For the conversational version

SmartLess is the natural choice when the appeal is the guest-room chemistry. The show’s three-host format runs on interruption, affection and tangents, and "RE-RELEASE: Adam Sandler" puts Sandler inside that familiar scramble rather than behind a formal interview desk. Expect the conversation to wander. That wandering is the format.

The Bill Simmons Podcast: The Interviews provides another clean, single-subject doorway with Adam Sandler | June 2022. The title promises little beyond the pairing, which is useful in its own way: this is the straightforward option for someone who wants an Adam Sandler installment without a bracket, themed double feature or multi-story headline wrapped around it.

Those two episodes make a better starting pair than the passing mentions elsewhere. They put his name alone in the episode title and give the conversation room to be about him, while several other shows fold him into a busier lineup.

News, projects and quick-hit coverage

The Popcorn Hour with Matt and James is built for listeners who like movie talk delivered as an informal running conversation. Movie News | Gosling, Dafoe, Harry Potter Series & Adam Sandler Projects places Sandler’s projects among several entertainment stories, so this is a roundup rather than a deep dive. Choose it for a brisk check-in and film-fan chatter, not a complete assessment.

The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy Podcast is looser still. Crap On Extra: Adam Sandler's Whole Lotta Love for Sammy Hagar! sounds exactly like the kind of prompt its crowded, callback-heavy panel can turn into a group riff. Sandler is a named hook here, but the show’s pleasure comes from comic detours and reactions more than patient analysis.

Naughty But Nice with Rob Shuter approaches him through celebrity-news velocity. TAYLOR & TRAVIS' EMOTIONAL 20-MINUTE VOWS, HEARTFELT FAMILY TRIBUTES AND ADAM SANDLER'S MARRIAGE ADVICE REVEALED packages the Sandler angle beside larger headline material. It is best for listeners who enjoy quick verdicts, gossip-table energy and abrupt pivots between stories.

A family-oriented detour

KIDS FIRST! Coming Attractions offers a distinctly different setting in Juan Pablo Reyes (Wish), Adam Sandler (Leo), The Santa Clauses. Its rotating young correspondents keep the pace friendly and direct, with an interview-and-review style aimed at broad family listening. Sandler shares the billing, so the episode is better understood as a seasonal entertainment program than an exhaustive profile. Still, it is a useful alternative to the adult banter and critic-led formats dominating the other choices.

Where to start

For the strongest film argument, begin with The Good, the Bad, and the Nerdy Movie podcast’s UNCUT GEMS . The Good (Adam Sandler series) and follow it with That's My Boy . The Bad & Nerdy (Adam Sandler series).

For a compact double feature, choose There’s Sometimes a Buggy’s Special Subject - Valentine's Day 2026 - Adam Sandler Valentine - THE WEDDING SINGER (1998) and PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE (2002).

For a relaxed personality-first listen, try SmartLess and "RE-RELEASE: Adam Sandler". If you prefer rankings and comic disagreement, go instead to The Nostalgic Front Podcast’s Episode 527 - March Madness Adam Sandler Film Bracket with Mike Mercadal: Part Two.
