VSiN Adds Poker Greats to Lineup with Fade Us Sports Podcast

Vegas Stats & Information Network (VSiN) is launching a weekly podcast called “Fade Us Sports.” Beginning August 27, the show will unite poker legends who’ve battled on the felt for decades but are now turning their sharp gambling instincts toward sports.

Good to know

• The hosts include poker greats Phil Hellmuth, Mike “The Mouth” Matusow, Brandon Cantu and David Woodley.
• The group has shared poker and gambling ties for more than 30 years.
• Each episode will mix NFL betting talk with stories from the poker circuit.

The lineup is packed with poker royalty. Phil Hellmuth, the 17-time WSOP bracelet winner, joins forces with outspoken star Mike Matusow, bracelet winner Brandon Cantu, and longtime poker insider David Woodley. Together, they’ll bring their banter and strategy talk—familiar to anyone who’s followed poker tournaments—to a sports betting audience.

VSiN President Brian Musburger said:

“This new podcast represents a collection of some of the greatest minds in the history of gambling, and we’re thrilled to add this title to our network of premier sports betting podcasts. While they’re poker royalty, Phil, Mike, Brandon and David may not be as well known for their sports betting prowess, but it’s clear that they don’t like to lose. Every gambler can learn from these guys.”

The show won’t just break down NFL matchups. The hosts will dive into betting strategies, survivor pools, and the kind of table talk that shaped their careers in poker. For fans, that means hearing the same voices that once debated hands at the World Series of Poker now debating point spreads and betting angles.

Hellmuth described the format perfectly:

“‘Fade Us’ captures the conversations every bettor has with friends on game day. Partnering with VSiN is a natural fit, pairing our everyman perspective with the sharp insights of the industry’s true experts. Our show is built on the same banter and strategy talks that happen in living rooms and sportsbooks everywhere. VSiN is the perfect home, connecting everyday bettors with the best minds in the game.”

The addition of poker’s biggest personalities comes as VSiN reshapes its lineup for the 2025-26 NFL season, expanding live broadcasts and adding more sports betting analysis from Circa Sports in Las Vegas and new programming in Kentucky.

David Krulewich, CEO of Mission Media, added:

“Adding these legendary names to VSiN’s Podcast Network is a sign of the breadth of VSiN’s content and audience. Advertisers that want real marketing results know to rely on independent category influencers and when it comes to gaming, it’s hard to find more influential names than these.”

For poker fans, it’s another way to follow the legends beyond the felt. For bettors, it’s a chance to hear how some of gambling’s most recognizable voices break down sports the same way they break down a poker hand.
