Chris Paul Podcasts

There is surprisingly little podcast coverage of Chris Paul, and the useful episodes fall into a few distinct lanes: one game-night breakdown, one retirement reaction, an event recap, and a wide-ranging interview. Beyond those, he tends to appear as one item in a broader NBA conversation rather than the sole subject.

The game-night breakdown

The Bird Calls has the most focused piece of immediate analysis. Chris Paul slams the door on Pelicans comeback and previewing Game 2 starts with a specific finish and then looks ahead to the next matchup. The show’s measured, conversational style suits listeners who want the game worked through in basketball terms rather than reduced to a highlight or verdict.

There is little ceremony here. The attraction is the tight frame: what happened, how the comeback ended, and what that means for Game 2.

Retirement as part of the news cycle

The Draymond Green Show treats Paul’s retirement as one major story in a busy league roundup. Kevin Durant's Burner EXPOSED? Chris Paul Retires & NBA All Star Game Takeaways, published February 19, 2026, places the discussion beside two louder subjects. That makes it a brisk reaction listen rather than a full retrospective.

The show’s insider, locker-room register gives the segment a different texture from studio analysis, but the title is candid about its scope: Paul shares the episode with Durant and the All-Star Game.

213Hoops: The Lob, The Jam, The Podcast is narrower in team perspective but similarly segmented. Clippers Keep it Going in Houston, CP3 Retires, Post-ASG Expectations folds the retirement into Clippers talk and post-All-Star expectations. Choose this when you want the news discussed inside an ongoing team conversation, not treated as a self-contained event.

Chris Paul in the room

The clearest guest-led option is The Late Run. Chris Paul on Wemby Living ALONE at 15, Small Guards & Why Superteams Like Real Madrid FAIL, published July 23, 2026, ranges across Wemby, smaller guards, and the problems facing superteams. It is the broadest Chris Paul–centered episode here and the best choice for listeners who prefer an extended conversation to a news reaction.

Listen in with KNN offers a more event-specific appearance. Recapping March Madness in Indy and Phoenix with Chris Paul, published April 9, 2026, puts him inside a March Madness recap spanning Indianapolis and Phoenix. The emphasis is the tournament conversation rather than a general profile.

Where the mentions get brief

Once those episodes are exhausted, Paul usually becomes one thread among several. The Ringer NBA Show pairs him with another headline in LeBron's Streak Ends. Plus, CP3's Turbulent Ending With the Clippers. It may satisfy someone seeking that particular Clippers discussion, but it should not be mistaken for an episode devoted entirely to Paul.

Where to start

Start with The Late Run for the fullest subject-led conversation. Pick The Bird Calls for close game analysis, or The Draymond Green Show for a faster retirement reaction. If March Madness is the draw, go directly to Listen in with KNN.
