Dave Portnoy has announced he has cancelled his own Barstool Sports podcast.
“I guess I should mention, I thought I was gonna do it, the Dave Portnoy show is in purgatory it is suspended indefinitely,” Portnoy said. “I stopped it last week because, to be honest, it was terrible,” Portnoy said of The Dave Portnoy Show featuring Eddie & Co. “Not necessarily Eddie’s fault or my fault. It’s just the subject’s stale. We did a show, it’s bad. I gotta change it up.”
Portnoy then said he was planning to chance the content of the show to do a show with celebrities but it was too similar to Barstool Rundown.
“It wasn’t going to work, so I cancelled it,” Portnoy said. “I have a pretty good idea when something’s good and bad. I knew it was bad when I was yawning halfway through.”
Portnoy launched the show in September of 2020, recording 101 episodes before the cancellation.
“I don’t know if it’s coming back or when it’s coming back, but I’m not going to do content that I know stinks,” he added.
