The Fantasy Footballers
podcast
The Fantasy Footballers is a sports podcast hosted by Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright where they provide fantasy football advice. The show runs continuously throughout the year with a minimum of two episodes per week during the offseason.
History
The Fantasy Footballers was launched by Holloway, Moore, and Wright in 2014. The initial idea came after Holloway and Wright had started a joke podcast for their own personal workplace league while all three were working in the video game industry in Arizona, discussing trades and ridiculing other members of their fantasy football league. Moore began as a background contributor before joining as a co-host in 2015.
In summer 2018, The Fantasy Footballers held their first five-city live podcast tour The People's Fantasy Tour, with a second following in 2019.
In 2018, both Holloway and Moore featured in the top 10 most accurate fantasy experts on FantasyPros while staff writer Robert Waziak was ranked No. 2 overall. That year the podcast had more than 100 million downloads.
