Top 10 Most Influential Sports Betting Radio Shows

In today’s sports betting community, so many bettors are searching for that edge or special resource that’s going to help them cash in on their picks. From local talk hosts to nationally syndicated sports personalities, there’s more than plenty to choose from. Many like to depend on the more popular, nationally syndicated hosts under the assumption that if they’re popular, they most know what they’re doing and be good at their sports information and analysis. However, those hosts are usually popular because of their entertainment factor, not because of their exceptional sports picks.

On the radio, it’s a similar landscape to that of the sports personalities on television. It’s sometimes the louder hosts, not the more informed, that seem to pull the biggest audiences and have the largest influence. Our own lead picker and owner of Sports Information Traders, Jon Price, is one of those nationally syndicated radio personalities who offers his sports betting insight each and every week on various shows that air across the country. In order to save you some time, we’ve gathered a list of some of the most reliable and well-informed sports radio personalities for you to check out next time you’re preparing to make your weekly sports picks.

1. Jon Price – Call it bias, but Jon Price has by far the best winning percentage at 64% than any other sports radio personality. He not only gives out winning picks, but offers some of the best analysis and insight into the games. Jon Price’s program has won more people money than all of the other hosts combined and is also a world famous sports bettor in his own right who often bets on his own information that he provides to clients on a daily basis.

3. Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic – Two hosts that strike a good balance between entertainment and actual sports information are the hosts of Mike and Mike in the Morning.

Dan Patrick – Maybe not the most entertaining show with Dan’s slow, calculated delivery, but as a man that’s did his time with some of the largest sports publications in the country, Dan knows his sports as good as anyone.
