The Vertical Podcast with J.J. Redick is a podcast presented by Yahoo Sports, and can be found on iTunes. In a Clipperholics interview with Redick in late March, he stated that it will return sometime during the Clippers off-season.

"“I’ve got some things lined up for the pod. I’ve got like 8 or 10 guests and some stuff that I’m really excited about and I’ve got some things in the works as well…” – J.J. Redick"
We are excited for Redick’s podcast to return, as he is a natural host in the studio. My personal favorite episode from the bunch that I listened to was episode 27. Jamal Crawford joined Redick to record this episode after the Clippers lost to the Trailblazers in the first round of the 2016 playoffs to talk about the team’s reactions and emotions.
Podcasts that have sports players are a very unique and also very genuine. No host can tell you more about the NBA league or the NBA team than someone who is living a life in those organizations. Redick’s thoughts and information on the NBA is extremely insightful.
Redick had plenty of guests on his podcast in the past. They included Blake Griffin, Matt Barnes, DeAndre Jordan, Chris Paul, Jeremy Lin, Tracy McGrady, Jamal Crawford, Aaron Rodgers, Steve Nash, and Kyle Lowry just to name a few. It will be entertaining to find out who agrees to come onto the podcast, and to hear what they have to discuss.
One thing that makes this return of The Vertical Podcast with J.J. Redick so interesting is the fact that he will now be an unrestricted free agent, meaning he could end up on any team this summer. Expect new episodes of the podcast to be released soon, as the Clippers are now unfortunately out of the playoffs.
