Perth Podcasts

On podcasts, the city most often enters through a fixture, a fight card or an impending trip. Perth-specific listening is broad but rarely continuous: most sports shows arrive for one occasion, talk through the stakes, then move with the schedule. The result is less a single conversation about the city than a collection of match-day perspectives, from cricket analysis and rugby-league reaction to betting advice and local wrestling.

The strongest episodes are easy to identify because Perth is central to the premise. Elsewhere, it tends to sit in the background of wider Australian sport. For listeners, that distinction matters: come for a particular event or team and there is plenty to choose from; look for a sustained portrait of the city and the options narrow quickly.

When Perth means game day

SharkCast - Cronulla Sharks NRL Podcast offers the clearest post-match entry with PostGame Livestream Sharks vs Roosters in Perth 2026. Its supporter-first style is loose, conversational and steeped in Sharks shorthand. This is the choice of listening for someone who wants the result processed among fellow fans, with community chatter and football judgment detail sharing the same space.

The anticipation is louder on Fins Up Podcast. Warriors dusted, Perth here we come turns the destination into the next beat of a fast-moving fan conversation. The show’s combative duo dynamic suits that kind of title: tribal, excitable and ready to spin each result into another argument about who is up or down.

Cricket gets the more measured treatment. In The Cordon - Cricket Podcast makes Perth the site of a specific reckoning in Australia Destroyed by India in Perth: Border Gavaksar Trophy 1st Test Review. Its question-driven discussions take their time, moving through conditions, roles and selection logic rather than chasing quick outrage. Start here if the match itself matters more to you than the atmosphere surrounding it.

Together, these episodes reveal the dominant pattern. Perth is usually heard as a sporting stage whose meaning changes with the travelling team: a destination after one result, the scene of the next contest, or the location attached to a bruising review.

Fight cards, forecasts and local scenes

For combat-sports listeners, Bookie Beatdown is the most practical option. UFC Perth Picks, Bets, Props | Della Maddalena vs Prates Fight Previews, Predictions announces exactly what it intends to deliver. The show talks like two fight bettors working through a card in real time, mixing matchup detail and betting shorthand with unruly side jokes. The appeal lies in opinions that lead to a pick you can act on.

Auscast Sport takes a different route through EPW: Perth's Powerhouse of Pro Wrestling. Here the city is attached to a local wrestling subject rather than a visiting fixture. The episode is a useful change of scale after national cricket and rugby-league coverage, pointing listeners toward a Perth sports scene that receives far less attention elsewhere.

Fantasy analysis turns location into one variable among many. SC Playbook NRL | Supercoach NRL asks NRL Supercoach 2026: Q+A, is Marky Mark set to soar in Perth? Its rapid, shorthand-heavy style is built for listeners already following prices, ownership and team-list consequences. Perth matters because the player decision matters; anyone seeking wider discussion of the city will find this too specialised, while committed Supercoach players may find that precision exactly right.

The sharper detours beyond sport

The most striking non-sport episode comes from Bad Apple: A True Crime Podcast. Episode 39 - The Perth Mint Swindle: How $3.7 million in gold simply vanished. shifts the listening experience from previews and reactions to a self-contained crime story. It is the obvious choice when a sporting itinerary feels too narrow, though it remains one particular case rather than general Perth coverage.

Talking Tech supplies another departure with two appearances framed around a local programme: Episode 27 Talking Tech on Perth Tonight 26/2/2018 and Episode 28 - Talking Tech on Perth Tonight 5/3/2018. These titles place technology discussion inside “Perth Tonight” rather than promising a city guide. They are best approached as archived local-media appearances and evidence of how Perth can serve as the setting for subjects that have little to do with sport.
