    Great
    Great host and great podcast. Keeps us updated daily on all Lions info. Entertaining and sometimes amusing. Need this in the mornings. Thank you.
  • RaleighLion
    Great pod cast!
    He hates trump and the soft magats don’t like orange Jesus being picked on.
  • NoCurses
    Politics
    If I wanted to know Matt Dery’s political affiliation, I would ask him or tune into a political podcast. This isn’t the first time he’s done this, so his apology doesn’t cover it.
  • T.Scott54
    You messed up
    Don’t talk politics! Unfollowing the show
  • LilAlexNBA
    Great place to get football knowledge
    I love this podcast. It is a great podcast and the host is amazing Guy
  • INTP
    Always listen to Matt’s podcasts.
    The big plus is Matt puts out a Lions podcast 5 days a week, every week, so there’s always new Lions coverage to listen. The negative (not Matt’s fault, obviously) is there isn’t 100 minutes/week worth of Lion coverage during much of the offseason. Kudos for Mr. Dery for putting Lions info out, despite the relative lack of information on the team throughout the year.

    Great
    Love it. Great podcast I love it
  • dv2591
    Could be better
    Matt comes out of Sports talk radio where it’s more about takes than analysis. The show could use a football expert which is how most of these shows are done. The fact I know the game better than he does is a bit disappointing. Why can’t the Locked on Lions host do some film study.
  • Mmclaughlin 127
    Always great coverage
    Go Dery….go Lions
  • TioChino
    Thanks
    Don’t worry about people who leave can’t fix stupid. Don’t stop being yourself.
  • BigGrandpaJ
    Why get political?
    Having such a fraud like Gretchen Whitmore on so she can take credit for the lions success was such a poor decision. Especially on the day before the draft where people look forward to your analysis. It was such a fake conversation and literally made my stomach hurt. I can’t believe you let such a despicable person attach her wagon to the lions success. You lost a lot of listeners today, I promise you.
  • Vinnn25
    Good
    This is perfect for any die hard lions fan that needs the podcast to learn all the new stuff going on GO LIONS!!!
  • Urbanie91
    Best show in town
    Matt Dery is an institution - no doubt about it. Locked on Lions is one of the best podcasts in the great City of Detroit and THE go-to source for daily updates and expert opinions.
  • F. Sharrow
    Dery is the man
    Love this show- Matt Dery MAY be from Cleveland, but he offers a great podcast for this Detroit team! Thanks Matt!
  • Greg lions fan chicago
    If your a Lions fan
    If your a true die hard Detroit Lions fan then this is the only podcast you need. I live in Chicago now and grew up in Detroit with the Lions. I listen to every ” Locked on Lions “ podcast for over a year now. It’s real. No bull, by far the best and I’ve listened to all the other podcasts. This is the only podcast you will need.
  • Turdfurguson74
    Best pod
    I’ve been a lions fan since 1990, stumbled across the podcast during this last offseason and have been hooked ever since. It’s literally my first listen every day at work, love it
  • Jte2214
    Whiny
    If you want to listen to someone whine anytime things aren’t perfect or if his opinion is criticized this is the show for you!
  • Rnovak20
    Solid guy wrong team
    Dery is a decent podcast host but it’s clear he doesn’t have the passion. He doesn’t have the mindset or love for the team a real Detroit fan would. This makes it impossible to sit through some of his cold takes that aren’t even inherently football related. Dery would do worlds better covering Guardians Baseball and not Detroit football.
  • Boof172488
    Horrible negative
    I decided to listen to this podcast to try a new lions podcast and this guy don’t know football. Want to pick up a pass rusher at the trade deadline, guess what, you trust the process. Don’t settle. Build through the draft.
  • Spammy b
    Bad audio.
    I gave up after 2min. It’s 2023, step your game up. Please fix your sound/audio. It sounds like you are doing the pod inside a vending machine. I appreciate your effort but it sounds terrible.
  • Franetrain262
    The worst kind of sports journalism
    Hot takes galore, poor analysis, and the snarkiest tone one could imagine. Like one of the other reviewers said below, I come back from time to time after being a subscriber and always regret it. Also -222 Rod Wood Drive isn’t funny. Like, at all. Let it go.
  • Schoey50
    Chill
    The Jamo hate is unreal, made me stop in the middle of the episode.
  • ShelleyChalker
    Everyday must listen
    Matt Dery is the most professional/polished podcaster I’ve heard. Perfect blend between old school Radioish and modern podcasting. I love the show. He also shout out other Lions podcasts without fear of helping the “competition”. I’ve caught a couple of the YouTube shows and someone get Matt a better camera, the video quality needs to compliment the host and audio quality.
  • hgghvdgdvg
    Commercials
    Once a month I try to give this show another listen, but I just can’t handle daily. It’s usually mid content between way to many teasers/commercials. 43% of the show is commercials and “coming up nexts…” *June 7 Show Starts* O:01-3:45: Commercial and Teasers 3:46-8:45: Content 8:46-11:20: Teasers and Commercials 11:21-16:30: Bad content 16:31-18:55: Commercials and teases 18:55- 22:40: Content 22:41-23:20: Commercial When I want some entertaining content that make Lions fans feel good, I listen to Peter Bokowski on Locked on Packers trash Aaron Rodgers haha.
  • Org_Gb
    Everydayer Chubbs
    5 Stars my man, keep up the great work Dery even during the off season still giving us good content
  • FOFFPKING
    This show was like the Lions!
    Like the Lions being a hard watch in the past, I thought show was a hard listen in its beginning. He sometimes mixed sports and social commentary. Dude is hitting it now. The guy got ripped for his mock draft but was it as eff’ed up as the reality? I listen to many other Locked On pods and Dery in “Comp” sounds like a pro. Top 10 in NFL Locked-On pods for sure. Can we work on the audio cracking in and out now? Also, It’s getting really Rah!, Rah! for the Lions this year. Are we getting set up! Again.
  • BiggieBry
    Dery does not know pro football
    It’s sad but Dery used to be a decent listen while the Lions were a dumpster fire but he seems to suffer from “Battered Fan Syndrome.” His submission to the Locked On Draft Series in ‘23 for the Pitt DT at number 6 was rightly laughed at by actual football minds as he’s probably not even a first round pick. After listening to Mr. Dery I just want the past hour of my life back. He’s totally unqualified for the job he has. I’d give the show zero stars if I could. Save your time if you’re a Lions fan. There are plenty of other pods that will actually inform.
  • Goblue85
    Let’s Be Honest
    There aren’t a ton of Lions podcasts, so as Lions fans who are hungering for content it’s easy to click on this because it’s daily. Every time I do, though, I almost immediately regret it. Dery consistently dishes out incredibly biased takes, and regularly puts his foot in his mouth (he even issued an on air apology due to this recently). This guy gives bad hot takes every episode and it’s just not worth the listen. You’re better off replaying the most recent episode of One Of These Days or Pride of Detroit. Don’t give clicks to someone who drafts Kancey and Murphy in the first and trades up for Torrence. This guy knows nothing.
  • Fusebabyyy
    Love the show
    Dery is one of the most fair lions podcast hosts there is. Bro was about to leave when we were 1-6 and stayed strong and watched the 8-2 down the stretch. He’s one is us for sure. Side note: the audio quality on the podcast has really gone downhill since the show went on YouTube tho. At least once a day, you miss some info due to audio quality. Great show tho! Love it.
  • Iputonshirts
    Host is a hack
    Tried listening one more time and the guy has low energy, bad takes, and throws in dumb pc trash when he can to prove how big of a woke simp he is. Plenty of other lions podcasts you can listen to, I’d recommend over this one until they can this garbage host.
  • Maize And Blue
    Trash
    The episode with Mike V was the final straw, I’m so glad I have found another Lions podcast to listen to because this is garbage
  • Joshdm23
    Great Season
    Great 2022 for the Detroit Lions and I love listening to Matt Dery every week. Can't wait until next year!

    Lions Fans Deserve Better
    I have listened to this podcast for years and it does help me stay aware of what is happening with the team but Lions fans deserve better. When the host threatened to quite the podcast if the team lost again, I started listening to the host of the Lions opposing team and I learned three things. 1. They do so much more research. I understand this podcast is just his side hustle but it doesn’t feel like that for other locked on hosts. They do research of the opponents and film breakdowns to support their takes. Matt Dery does the PFF top and bottom five for offense and defense each week. He relies on guests to bring the informed takes and his “crack research staff” that I assumed he was saying as reference to his own research but then he clarified that they are real, he just wont name them. Probably because someone will ask them to take over the show if he really does shine the spotlight on them. 2. They are not all talk radio guys. Dery does bit radio with insider nicknames that he will not stop using like “Hall of Fields” implying that everyone thinks that Justin Fields will go to the hall of fame when I have never heard that take from anyone even in Chicago media. He calls anzalone “gaines media posterboy” and nobody even knows what that means. 3. They adjust their opinions. He won’t let go of old takes. He has been calling the front office 222 rod wood drive for so long that now when GM Brad Holmes looks competent Rod Wood seems irrelevant. The show has the feel of a college coach that runs the same scheme until it is not effective anymore and he gets run out of town. I know Dery does great ad reads and has been with David Locke since the beginning, but Lions fans deserve real research, thoughtful takes, and something new.
  • Levi Bootcut
    Unlistenable
    Matt has zero insight. Do not waste your time on this pod. There is no analysis, just Matt rattling off all the talking points he sees on other media outlets. On the rare occasion he actually makes his own “analysis”, it is so off base and outlandish that it makes me cringe. Basically 971 talk radio In podcast form
  • boofoorobo
    Terrible host/commercial riddled
    This show is just full of commercials and the host does almost no research it literally seems as though he goes on the team website and just sees what they post or maybe on the team social media pages if you want to listen to a better podcast about the Detroit Lions there are a couple better ones
  • McLitigate
    Great podcast
    Matt Dery is great. Very informative, knowledgeable and entertaining. He is one of the better commentators.
  • MitchL24
    Solid podcast
    MD is balanced on the Lions. He doesn’t go too far one way or the other. Not a raving maniac.
  • reg_hartner13
    Best Lions Podcast Out There
    No one, and I mean NO ONE, has a healthier view of the Lions than Dery. He’s not some bandwagon guy that tells those that drink the Kool-Aid what they want to hear. He’s not someone that is negative just to be negative. I mean, there have been a lot or reasons to be negative. He breaks down the games, the team and the front office with an educated and objective view of what he actually sees on the field. Not to mention, with 20 years of being a member of the Detroit media, he has the contacts and is an insider. Knowledgable, honest and down to earth. Love listening to the Diesel.
  • tj 197234
    Uneducated
    He is literally negative on everything lions and has no knowledge of the game. Does he even watch.
  • CallMeBeezy
    Too many commercials
    Way too many commercials for a 30-minute podcast, kills the flow of the show. Too much “coming up next” teasing, this isn’t traditional radio, just get to it.
  • BPR92
    Fan favorite
    Only Lions dedicated podcast that I continuously listen to year after year. Matt does a great job!
  • muvtsx
    Love the show
    Perfect mix of news, guests, and opinions. Matt runs a great show both in and off-season. I love this show for my drive to work. It’s a great daily listen for me!
  • solic52
    Nice job
    I look forward to the podcasts. Too critical of what the Lions do. I like some of his insights, disagree with some. But again, I look forward to the new podcasts.
  • Frinkinhard
    Late night sports radio product
    Unqualified, unobjectionable opinions that sound like jaded local sports radio in the low traffic time slot, but only one voice. Big pass.
  • defend the den 0608
    Locked on needs a new host ASAP
    This show needs to dump Matt every time I come back to listen to this show I feel like this guy doesn’t even watch football and has no knowledge about the game terrible takes and I’m through until they change the host would give zero stars if I could. So please for the love of god locked on network replace this horrible host with someone better locked on do better this fan base deserves better.
  • Stevieo98
    Great Podcast
    I’ve been listening to Matt Dery and the Locked on Lions podcast for the past few years. You can tell Matt is a professional, especially when they do the crossover and you hear some of the other hosts. Matt is entertaining and produces the podcast on a regular basis. It’s nice to have this daily source of Lions related information that I can listen to while driving to (or from) work. Keep up the good work Matt!
  • NFL#1
    Free agents
    This podcast was talking and Jered Goff going to the Colts not about who might the Lions be targeting in free agency. I’m not going to tune in again.
  • Okudah_Matata
    Matt Dery is Great
    Just got into Podcasts and I am a big Lions fan. This show is a great listen! (Bonus points for him also being a Cleveland Guardians fan too… same as me!)
  • jd eggsjnf t
    Boooo
    I’ve listened to this pad cast for a couple of years now. Matt is just getting in my nerves. I get the jokes but enough. I’m done
