John Clayton Weekends

104

No one knew more about football than Seattle Sports' human database for everything NFL: “The Professor” John Clayton. His lifelong obsession with the game elevated Clayton from high school sports reporter to the writers’ wing of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. John sadly passed away on March 18, 2022, yet his legacy lives on through his intimate knowledge about the game of football.

    Love the professor!
    My favorite Seattle sports talk host with insightful positions on the NFL and other sports shows. Been a loyal fan on both coasts of the US for over 8 years. Keep it up!

    Regular Callers
    I love your insight and analysis so you get a 5! I listen to you every week! To improve the show I recommend you limit some of your regular callers, I.e., Irish Mienke and Jet? I’m just not interested in listening to so much air time devoted to ND and the Jets. It’s like listening to paint dry! Love your show! DV

    Aaron is not selfish…bye
    Everyone person has the right to choose whether or not they take a vaccine…he should get that choice and shouldn’t be forced to when there is a 99.98 chance of survival for him…Clayton you are great to listen to about sports.

    John Is The best
    John does an outstanding job of sharing his football knowledge. He is a very likable person, kind and really enjoys talking about sports.I only hope that KIRO Will keep him back for the full three hours on Saturdays. Also would like to see him back with a weekly show on KIRO a.m. radio. Please let John continue cooking on a weekly basis. 5+ stars

    John is the best around
    John is insightful, neutral, and data driven. Also just a likable guy. Love your content, John! Subscribed to all your shows.
  • IfETOM
    Great but....
    Add back more time. At least another hour.
  • burgermasterjames
    3 hours to 1 hour
    Clayton is still great but the show is now reduced from 3 hours to one hour for better or worse. The biggest drawback now is there is very little time to talk to callers but when you get a caller like Irish Menke who now uses time to interview Clayton about his journalism past for a fake book it kills the show. Thankfully there is Clayton on the weekdays.

    Actual sports coverage
    Drop the talking heads and sign up for the professor!
  • LifeIsShortNoTimeForFlatulence
    Thanks Professor
    We are lucky to have the NFL guru give us 3 hours of his time every Saturday with constant pearls of wisdom. Now that Seattle football is on top the Professor and us faithful fans can revel in the myriad Seahawk topics and nuances with glee! Thanks John!
  • eR1PL3Y
    HELP ME!!!
    I CAN'T STOP LISTENING!!! EVIL FORCES AT WORK HERE!!! GREAT SHOW THOUGH!!!
  • Seahawks$$$$$$$$
    Drop the callers!!!
    JC - it kills me not giving you a five, I love you bruhhh but please drop these crapy regular callers. Irish Mickey is the worst! Sounds like he got hit by a car.
  • BH, CA
    C'mon Man! Drop the Callers!!!
    I love u man, but NO ONE wants to listen to callers. And I mean no one. Maybe u can read their emails like other radio shows?! And for this reason, I deduct a star
  • Chadly5
    Awesome
    I have been a long time listener of the show. I moved to Hawaii and now most of my data plan goes to listening to his show while I'm driving or at work. Makes me feel like I'm driving I-5 again. And for those of you who hate the callers, or think they are unemployed lazy old people. I work full time as a ER RN making a large salary. I have called the show a few times myself. Keep it upJC.

    The professor is great, ditch the callers
    John Clayton him self deserves 4 stars, but the callers make this show unlistenable! They ramble, obnoxious (Irish mink), angry for no reason (dre), and the rest just seem socially awkward. The worst part is that they are the same callers every week!

    Clayton is not the problem
    John Clayton might be the most reliable sports reporter on ESPN... he may not be the funniest guy in the world but his information is TOP NOTCH. His show needs two things: 1. He needs a more lax, silly, or funny cohost to pair with him. I think John would benefit from playing off of another person, or just have another person to change the pace and flow of the show for a bit. 2. Get rid of the callers!!! Callers are an archaic idea from the RADIO DAYS... its like resetting, only old people from old radio care about it. Callers in EVERY CITY are stupid... I mean think about the people who have the time during a work day in the morning to call in... lots of winners in that group. Bottom line we want to hear more from John Clayton, and hopefully a cohost to help Clayton out. There are very few GOOD podcasts where one person is just talking solo... tough stuff.
  • Freakinthestix
    Blah...
    Clayton is awesome, but the callers are lame. He needs a cohost so that there is a little more substance to the show. Pair Clayton and Sean Salisbury, somehow someway again..
  • fulltilted
    Clayton is great
    Love John Clayton, but I turn off radio or stop the podcast when I hear Irish Minki. That caller is so horrid that he ruins the show. 5 stars if he stops calling in.
  • Lilhawkgirl
    Sounders
    Please talk more sounders!!!!!!
  • Beau2121
    Great show
    Love that the best man in the football biz is Seattle based and gives the hawks some love every Saturday. You always get a Nugget from Clayton you won't get elsewhere. Callers are a little rambly. Cutt them off John, we want you!
  • Renton Steve
    FYI
    For the person who gave the lame review, just a little heads up, this show is only once a week on Saturdays! Maybe next time do a little home work and know what your talking about DAM IT! JC and his show are the best! Keep up the great work!
  • AnchorageHawkFan
    Clayton
    Essential listening for any fan of Seattle teams. Irreplaceable for those of us who live outside of WA.
  • DymndHeartKilla
    Great show
    If you live in the Seattle area this show is unmatched and even if you don't you'll be hard pressed to find a more in depth set of knowledge. He's not ESPN's senior analyst for nothing
  • J Garza
    New and .....worthless
    It takes forever for new shows. If it's suppose to b daily then please post more of them instead of 1 or 2 a week.
  • errrbaby
    The best football journalist
    The show is seattle based, but every NFL team and most sports are discussed. Clayton is the best at what he does so you'll get a lot of unbiast info and insight
