Pablo Torre Finds Out

Follow Pablo down the rabbit hole, beyond the game — every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday — on his Pulitzer-winning video podcast, part of The Athletic Podcast Network.

You’ll get a deep-dive “talkumentary” episode, reported by Pablo and Curiosity Correspondents like Emmy-winning comedian Wyatt Cenac and Oscar-winning director Ezra Edelman, answering urgent questions such as: Are you smarter than an NFL quarterback? Does Giannis intentionally miss free throws to win free chicken for fans? And why does the FBI director play so much hockey? This storytelling has been honored by the Pulitzer Prizes, the Emmy Awards, the Peabody Awards and the Edward R. Murrow Awards. (Journalism!)

Plus: Pablo hangs out with handpicked figures from sports, culture and politics like Sue Bird, Action Bronson and U.S. Senators… plays Share & Tell with friends like Domonique Foxworth, Mina Kimes, Katie Nolan and Dan Le Batard (aka his boss)… and unveils the secrets of capitalism with David Samson and John Skipper on The Sporting Class.

The Show, the Voice and Grandpa: A PTFO Surprise May 22, 2025

Show notes

He became the internet's favorite sports grandfather for playing at least 162 games a year as the Yankees on MLB The Show, for two decades — and keeping score, by hand. What 86-year-old Kim Soriano didn't know, when he sat down to play with Pablo in our studio, is that Jon "Boog" Sciambi — the video game's announcer and the best voice in baseball — was doing the play-by-play, live. And what happened next will make you fall in love with the game all over again... into the great beyond.

The Long Goodbye: Tony Reali and the End of “Around The Horn” May 20, 2025

Show notes

He has hosted the same television show nearly 5,000 times — every weekday, at 5 p.m. Eastern, for more than two decades. (More than Oprah or Letterman ever did.) But now, counting down to Friday's series finale, Tony Reali is feeling the love... and revving up with all the gas left in his tank. Pablo says thank you, with a celebration of an endlessly likeable, familial and deeply weird pipeline of sports journalism — plus a special look back at when Stat Boy first took control of the mute button.

Can ESPN launch a streaming app built to last? Is Trump already sports-washing his shiny new Air Force One? And what the hell is the GOAT gonna do for the NBA on NBC? Pablo travels back inside the C-suite of sports business with John Skipper and David Samson.

Blood Empty: How a Beloved Team Made a Deal with the Devil May 15, 2025

Show notes

What do Vladimir Putin, David Hasselhoff and a shadowy businessman named The Meat Baron have in common? The remains of a fan-owned German football club that sold its soul, got stuck in the middle of a war, then woke up from a $200 million nightmare... to the basement of the standings. Correspondent Bradley Campbell travels to Gelsenkirchen, a mining town where soccer never stopped — and salvation was always a piece of merch away.

Watching the Dallas Cowboys on Death Row (PTFO Peabody Award Finalist) May 13, 2025

Show notes

This episode was recently honored as a unanimous finalist for the prestigious Peabody Awards. But it's been 26 years since he was sentenced to death, and Charles Flores still maintains his innocence — while talking trash, playing fantasy football and making enchiladas on game day. Last fall, correspondent David Fleming visited Inmate No. 999299 at a notorious supermax prison in Texas, to learn about life when there isn't always next year.

The Jordon Rules: An Exclusive PTFO Investigation May 09, 2025

Show notes

The real story of Bill Belichick's 24-year-old girlfriend is even weirder than it seemed on the viral CBS interview: Pablo spoke to 11 sources who've dealt with Jordon Hudson directly — and there is deep concern that she is destroying the legacy and reputation of the greatest football coach ever. Plus: Katie Nolan and Michael Cruz Kayne reveal our reporting from Hudson's hometown and her ex-boyfriend's (gulp) unsavory past. That... and the story of the yellow polka-dot bikini.

Will Forte Commits to the Bit May 08, 2025

Show notes

Will Forte is responsible for some of the most idiosyncratically bizarre characters in comedy history — and the funniest movie Pablo has ever seen. But to understand Forte's legend, you must peer behind the scenes of "MacGruber" and "SNL" (his mythical audition, included). With a little help from their mutual friends, Pablo goes inside the making of a cult classic... and that time Val Kilmer moved in.

The Fake Sports Scandal Taking Over Fox News May 06, 2025

Show notes

There's a big DOGE hearing on Capitol Hill tomorrow, after a month of yelling from Fox News and threats of a criminal investigation from Trump's cabinet. The cause: an elite female fencer who got punished for taking a knee, in protest of her transgender opponent at an Olympic qualifier. The problem? That story isn't true. Andrew Fischl, PTFO's fencing expert and whistleblower, tells us the real story — and the bizarre scandal in his sport that you should know about.

Share & Swear & Tell with Jessica Smetana and Kevin Clark May 02, 2025

Show notes

Why the f*ck is Formula One cracking down on profanity? Is swearing a performance-enhancing drug? And what if you hosted The Paul Finebaum Show — only to be bullied for loving the Orlando Magic? Plus: a foul-mouthed grandma, an insurance adjuster on meth, an ass in the jackpot, a potentially pierced penis... and the Chalamet of it all.

The Goalie Who Disappeared May 01, 2025

Show notes

Jerce Reyes Barrios was a pro soccer player in Venezuela — an underdog living a sports-movie dream. Then he became an immigrant to Trump's America: The administration accused Jerce of being a gang member. ICE flew him to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. And his family hasn't spoken to him since. All of this... for a tattoo about his favorite football club. Paola Ramos reports on how Jerce escaped one dictator, only to be trapped by another, thanks to the very collapse of American democracy itself.
