NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe has found a new home for his popular podcast, Club Shay Shay, in The Volume.
In addition to moving his podcast to The Volume, the digital network and podcasting hub founded by sports host Colin Cowherd, Sharpe’s company, Shay Shay Media, will jointly produce new programming with the network. The news comes after Sharpe’s exit from Undisputed, the Fox Sports debate show, in June, which had put his podcast back on the market.
“I’m excited to partner with my friend Colin Cowherd and the creative team at the Volume,” Sharpe said. “The Volume has built an amazing platform that is the right fit to help Shay Shay Media reach the next level. That includes developing new shows and bringing on new talent under the Shay Shay Media brand.”

Are we the only people who can’t understand why Fox Sports let Sharpe walk instead of just moving him to a different show? This is a massive get for The Volume, it will be interesting to see how this partnership works out.
Shannon Sharpe will also be on First Take throughout the year.
