Article was previously deleted via CSD G11. About two weeks later, It was recreated by the original author. Although the new version of the article appears to be slightly less promotional, I'm still not seeing the notability. Virtually no sourcing outside of the 3 already in the article. Source 1 is just their website, the NYT source seems fine, but the WSJ source (which is behind a paywall for anyone who wants to read it) seems to talk more about another NBA player's podcast that is hosted by their company than this particular podcast. Fails WP:WEB. 🌀Locomotive207-talk🌀 01:00, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

- Comment - There have been two New Yorker stories about his podcasting--I don't remember how detailed the Hua Hsu one was, as I read it months ago, but the 2017 story about Redick's first podcast is accessible via Google search. Caro7200 (talk) 14:32, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. I don't know about straight-up deletion here, it seems like this should definitely be worth a redirect to JJ Redick, at the very least. Ejgreen77 (talk) 19:57, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- I agree, I think a redirect would probably be more useful.--🌀Locomotive207-talk🌀 23:38, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to JJ Redick, its host. Fails WP:GNG with lack of significant coverage from multiple independent, reliable sources. Coverage is pretty much limited to trivial mentions of the podcast.—Bagumba (talk) 10:29, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, ✗plicit 11:52, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - I'm able to cite more sources if that's what is needed. I'm just curious as to why this Wiki page of another podcast is okay as it sounds the same (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armchair_Expert) Mattucla (talk) 01:01, 16 June 2021 (PST)
- @Mattucla: Take a look at WP:GNG to see what is expected to establish notability. If you can identify sources that demonstrate that GNG is met, you can list them here or use it to directly expand the article.—Bagumba (talk) 07:55, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
- Merge with JJ Redick. Crossover1370 (talk | contribs) 05:28, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - Okay give me a day to come up with the articles but I'll also add a subsection about this in JJ Redick's Wiki page Mattucla (talk) 01:01, 21 June 2021 (PST)
- Redirect to JJ Redick. It deserves a mention in the article but hardly a significant part of his bio. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 11:50, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
