The Dan Patrick Show - Sweet Digs!

Now that Dan Patrick has brought his show to the 101 Network on DirecTV, I got a chance to tape the show and watch it this weekend. I've always been a Dan Patrick fan, especially on the radio since it shows his true personality.

With his show now going nationwide on radio, through the Content Factory and Premiere Radio, DirecTV and blogged/streamed on SI.com, DP has hit a home run with his show. Plus, you factor in the greatest set in the history of radio and it's a no-brainer that anyone would want to listen and watch this on a daily basis.



What makes the TV show great is that it's just not a simulcast of the radio show. You get a pre-show meeting, plus special takes in the show with the guys just b.s.'ing and playing around. And boy, do they got the toys to play with! A free-form golf video screen, pinball machine, wide screen tv's and much more!

Speaking of the crew, it's a quirky bunch including EP's Paul Pabst and Todd "Fritzy" Fritz, Andrew "McLovin" Perloff and producer Patrick "Seton" Connor. Live blogs from the boys give you the inside scoop on the show and on tv, you get "The Box," an homage to the MTV-like "Real World" confessionals.

It's great stuff if you can catch it! And yes, I haven't even gotten into the content. Great guests, like Friday's Rich Eisen from the NFL Network and Tom Verducci from SI. Too boot, you always get Dan's whit, knowledge and experience and of course, never a want for an opinion.

Now that I've gotten a true taste of the show, I'll be a repeat listener, no doubt.
But, until Monday's show with SI/NBC's Peter King, TNT's Reggie Miller and SI Swimsuit Model Brooklyn Decker



(she's in studio - so watch it on DirecTV!), here's a bit of Dan to keep you content!



The Dan Patrick Show, weekdays 9am-12pm, ET.
