Starting January 21, Emmy-winning host and “opinionist” Katie Nolan is back at the mic with “Casuals,” a new SiriusXM podcast for fans who want to talk sports without feeling like they need to be an expert.

Casuals with Katie Nolan

How to Listen

New episodes of “Casuals” drop every week on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the SiriusXM app.

The Tuesday edition features Katie reacting to the most newsworthy sports moments of the week, highlighting the notable performances on the field and the storylines surrounding the athletes off it.

On Thursdays, Katie is joined by different guests from sports, comedy, and entertainment to better understand their sports fandom, however big or small, and to dive into the trending topics within their world.

What You’ll Hear

A sports podcast for everyone from the sports-curious to the sports-obsessed, “Casuals” covers the wide world of sports and everything it touches — especially the stories that bridge sports and pop culture — without getting into the analytics and X’s and O’s talk that can feel like homework for many casual fans. If you’re a person who likes sports but doesn’t want to be yelled at by old men in suits, “Casuals” is for you!

“I find that sports shows tend to talk about sports in a very specific way — stats, power rankings, gambling odds — while pop culture shows rarely talk about them at all,” Katie said. “With ‘Casuals,’ I hope to bridge that gap a little, talking with some of the funniest people I know about sports in a way that feels more welcoming to the casual fan. I want to help more people connect with sports, and I’m excited that SiriusXM does, too.”
