Dianna Russini and Chase Daniel Host ‘Scoop City,’ a New N.F.L. Podcast from The Athletic

For all your essential N.F.L. conversation, there's only one place to go… "Scoop City."

Hosted by The Athletic's senior N.F.L. insider Dianna Russini and longtime N.F.L. quarterback Chase Daniel, "Scoop City," a new podcast from The Athletic, takes listeners inside the N.F.L. framework, explaining not just what's happening, but how and why too.

Twice a week, Dianna and Chase dish out the latest buzz from on and off the field, going beyond stats, scores and gameday chatter to bring fans unparalleled insight into the stories captivating the league.

"In my 15 years of covering the greatest sport, I've learned the best fans like being 'in the know,'" Dianna said. "We want to give listeners an even bigger connection to their favorite teams and players. The conversations will be centered around our favorite sport, but we promise you, we never take ourselves too seriously."

"I'm so excited to dive into the world of the N.F.L. like you've never heard and seen before. There are so many things that go on behind the scenes in the league that so many people don't understand, and Dianna and I can't wait to share it all," Chase said.

"If the N.F.L. is your favorite TV show, 'Scoop City' is where you'll want to hang out," added Michael Martinez, The Athletic's group executive producer for football. "Dianna and Chase are wired into what's happening in a way that's completely unique, and the show will be such a great gateway for the incredible journalism that happens at The Athletic. They're also just a fun pair of people to spend time with. Football fans and podcast listeners are in for a treat."
