It was a huge shock this summer when ESPN decided to part ways with longtime lead NBA analysts Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson. The pair, along with Mike Breen, had been staples in NBA broadcasting for decades. And while Van Gundy moved on to take on a behind-the-scenes role with the Boston Celtics, it wasn’t clear what Jackson’s next step would be… until now. We hope you’re sitting down for this one, because… Mark Jackson… is starting his own podcast, the self-titled Mark Jackson Show. And to think Mama, There Goes That Podcast was right there staring him in the face. Yes, it’s another podcast! Jackson is the latest current or former NBA player to start a podcast along with countless others in the marketplace. His version will be alongside his son Mark Jackson II and be hosted on the Come and Talk 2 Me YouTube channel, which is best known for the popular Cam’ron and Ma$e show It Is What It Is. The debut episode is already out and Jackson explained in hilarious fashion why he decided to go the well-traveled podcast route when asked by his son at the top of the show. “If you don’t know, I got fired! That’ll do it, that’ll make you make an adjustment and an audible real fast,” Jackson said.
Does not sound very interesting. He is going to have to say something or interview someone that will make headlines. Like explain why no one will hire him and name names. The answer seems to be its all his fault. But he needs to do that. Seems like his time working in the NBA at any capacity is over. So might as well burn some bridges and let it all out.

I was going to let sleeping dogs lie on your comments but I think you are on point. His time broadcasting on any network is finished, so it seems. He might as well, as you say, get provocative if he wants to get more views to his podcast. I am, so far, not interested in anything he has to say.
Well, he has over a half million subscribers so he must be doing well with it. I listened a little on his take of the series between the Knicks and Pacers since he played for both teams. I am warming up to this podcast.
