Sinclair Broadcast Group Director of Network Programming and Podcasts Peter Gianesini has announced a new addition to the company’s growing podcast network. Alabama sports fans will soon have a new go-to destination for all things Crimson Tide, as THE DYNASTY podcast is set to debut Wednesday, May 28. The weekly show promises a fresh take on Alabama athletics year-round. Furthermore, it will feature in-depth discussions led by three names synonymous with the program’s storied success.
Former Alabama football stars AJ McCarron and Trent Richardson will join longtime play-by-play announcer Chris Stewart to break down the past, present, and future of one of college football’s most dominant programs. Together, they’ll deliver exclusive insight into the inner workings of Alabama football and beyond.
Notably, McCarron and Richardson led the Crimson Tide to two BCS National Championships in 2009 and 2011. McCarron then went on to win another BCS title for Alabama the following year in 2012, as Richardson was drafted with the third overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. Importantly, this will be the first venture into the podcasting space for both McCarron and Richardson.
McCarron, the former Alabama quarterback, revealed the news at the Regions Tradition Celebrity Pro-Am golf tournament at Greystone in Hoover, Alabama earlier this week. He told reporters, “At least I don’t have to hold back,” McCarron said. “I don’t have any media people saying, ‘Hey, let’s not say this.’”
In addition to football, THE DYNASTY will tackle topics across Alabama’s championship-winning athletic department, including men’s basketball, baseball, and other varsity sports. From spring practices and SEC clashes to College Football Playoff contention, THE DYNASTY aims to offer fans unparalleled access and behind-the-scenes perspectives.
Moreover, listeners can expect expert analysis, passionate commentary, and authentic storytelling from those who have helped shape Alabama’s legacy. In turn, this unique blend of voices and experience will provide fans with content they can’t find anywhere else.
New episodes will be released weekly. Fans can watch on YouTube or listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or their preferred podcast platform.
