iHeartMedia, the No. 1 podcast publisher according to Podtrac, and the National Basketball Association (NBA), today announced the addition of two shows to its multi-year podcast partnership, including the debut of “NBA DNA with Hannah Storm” today. Additionally, Vince Carter brings “The VC Show with Vince Carter” to the NBA Podcast Network for its much anticipated season two.
“NBA DNA with Hannah Storm” will feature host, commentator and “SportsCenter” anchor Hannah Storm delving into her incredible life and drawing stories from her earliest days as a fan, when her father was commissioner of the ABA (the league that later merged with the NBA) and she witnessed the Pacers’ logo getting designed on her kitchen table to her historic career as a pioneer in the field of sports broadcasting for women.
This multi-part podcast series – featuring legendary Hall of Famers, current NBA superstars and basketball media personalities – will unfold through interviews, archive audio and first-person narrative that will interweave her personal story with the history of modern professional basketball.Â
“I have long dreamed of doing a project chronicling my unique lifelong journey through professional basketball, from the ABA to the NBA and WNBA,” said Storm. “I am so excited to share the stories along the way with the people who are an integral part of my NBA DNA!”
“NBA DNA with Hannah Storm” will feature a slew of can’t-miss guests including Dr. J (Julius Erving), Charles Barkley, Rex Chapman, Dell Curry, Bob Costas, Peter Vecsey, Sheryl Swoopes, Doris Burke, Ralph Sampson, Robert Horry, Muggsy Bogues, P.J. Carlesimo, Larry Brown, Rebecca Lobo and Rudy Tomjanovich.
Additionally, “The VC Show with Vince Carter” will join the iHeartMedia and NBA slate for its season two debut. The show features the eight-time NBA All-Star sharing incredible behind-the-scenes stories from his life and 22-year career in the league with the biggest names in sports and entertainment.
In the season two debut, Carter talks with former UNC Tar Heel teammate and NBA great Antawn Jamison. During the episode, the two discuss some of their greatest memories on campus in Chapel Hill as well as the epic night Antawn dropped 51 on Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. This week Carter will sit down with Jameer Nelson.
“I am so excited that season two is finally here thanks to iHeart and the NBA Podcast Network,” said Carter. “This season we have a new theme song and a new look, but still the same good conversation.”
