  Believe it or not, I've listened to just about every podcast from Simmons. The Erin Andrews one was meh. Simmons asked some really strange questions (growing a playoff beard?) that made the interview awkward to listen to, but he kept things strickly PG (they are both ESPN employees after all). If you really want to laugh at one of his podcats, listen to the Tony Stewart one. Good God, that one is horrible. Simmons is best when he can play off someone else's humor, like Corolla, but Stewart is deadly serious the entire time.

  If you've been curious, but haven't listened to any Simmons ' podcats, the Sugar Ray Leonard one and the Steve Kerr one are his best, probably because they're topics (the NBA and boxing) that he actually cares about.
