Shannon Sharpe Reportedly Expected to Sign $100M Podcast Contract, Has Multiple Offers

Shannon Sharpe is expected to sign a podcast deal worth more than $100 million after receiving "multiple offers" for his next contract, Ryan Glasspiegel and Michael McCarthy reported for Front Office Sports.

The deal will include the Club Shay Shay podcast alongside other shows hosted by the Shay Shay Media network.

Those include Jeff Teague's Club 520 Podcast and Nightcap with Sharpe and Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson, as well as The Bubba Dub Show and the official team podcast of the Atlanta Hawks.

The news comes amid the pending expiration of Sharpe's deal with The Volume, the media company founded by Colin Cowherd, according to Glasspiegel and McCarthy.

Sharpe originally joined The Volume after reaching a buyout agreement to leave Fox Sports, where he had spent almost seven years partnering with Skip Bayless. He also currenlty appears on ESPN alongside Stephen A. Smith on First Take.

As reported by Awful Announcing's Brendon Kleen, the Feb. 19 episode of the Club Shay Shay podcast is the last to feature The Volume logo as an onscreen graphic.

Club Shay Shay has almost four million subscribers on YouTube, while Nightcap has approximately 1.75 million on the platform. In comparison The Pat McAfee Show, which was brought to ESPN in 2023 for a reported five-year, $85 million licensing deal, has just over 2.8 million subscribers on the platform.
