A New Chapter for The IDP Show

We have some news: seven years after The IDP Show got its start, this show—and the brand it launched—are entering a bold new era.

Seven years ago, we started The Big 3 IDP Podcast in a shed in Bowling Green, Kentucky, because we believed the IDP community deserved the same level of consistent, quality analysis we saw in the offensive fantasy football space. We pictured ourselves like The Fantasy Footballers, but focused on the other side of the ball.

What that podcast has become since July 21, 2019, is beyond even our wildest dreams. A full-blown brand with multiple podcasts, a YouTube channel, a world-class team, and the best fans in the business… I mean, what can we say? Thinking about it all truly leaves us speechless, and if you listen to our show, you know that’s no small feat!

There have been many pivotal dates in the history of The IDP Show over the last seven years, but this one is the most significant to date. We have some news to share, and we want to share it the right way—directly from us, delivered to you first.

Drumroll please…

On April 26th, Jon Macri will become the new owner and host of The IDP Show.

This is an amazing full-circle moment for us. On October 6, 2020, we welcomed an up-and-coming name in the IDP space to our podcast. We knew in that moment Jon was something special, and since then, we’ve been thrilled to watch his star continue rising. First, as a fixture in our feed with The Big Nickel IDP Podcast, then as a full-time analyst for PFF who brought top-tier IDP analysis to a wider audience.

If you’ve followed IDP for any length of time, you already know what Jon brings to the table. He is one of the most dedicated, thorough, and respected IDP analysts in fantasy football. We know our community is in the best possible hands.

Make no mistake: we aren’t going anywhere. We are invested in growing this brand and serving this audience alongside Jon. His success is our success. We’ll be involved going forward, just in a different capacity. The same goes for our team. Jon is already hard at work figuring out how to best utilize the amazing folks we’ve been blessed to work with. So, know that: The people aren’t leaving. The mission isn’t changing.

What’s changing is who is leading the charge, and the charge is getting louder.

With that in mind, we want to announce another change: our pricing. We’ve never taken it for granted that what we’ve built is because of you. Your financial support of our small, independent brand is directly responsible for everything you see. We are profitable, bootstrapped, and invest every dollar back into making The IDP Show even better. So, before we talk pricing changes, let us say: THANK YOU!

Here are the changes you’ll be seeing to our website pricing:

• Effective today, annual subscriptions move from $50 to $100/year.

  • If your annual subscription was set to renew today, you received notice a week ago. If your price increased and you didn’t see that notice, please reach out and we will make it right with a full refund, no questions asked.

• Monthly subscriptions move from $5 to $10/month starting Monday, April 27th.

  • We’re making this announcement today to give our monthly subscribers 5 days’ notice to adjust their subscription before these changes take effect, but the same offer applies: if you get charged more without seeing this notice, let us know. We’re happy to cancel your subscription and refund you.

Look, we hate these “price increase” emails just as much as you do. Which is why we’re not charging more for the same amount of content, tools, and resources.

You’re not paying more for the same. You’re paying more for way, way more.

Free subscribers will still get great IDP content, which includes:

• Free articles every week

• IDP depth charts

• IDP snap shares

• Weekly Tackles Allowed Charts

• IDP Trade Calculator

• Weekly episodes of The IDP Show

• Weekly YouTube Shorts and quick-hitter videos

Paid subscribers will have access to everything listed above, most everything you were already getting, plus a series of new additions to the website, including:

• The IDP Report (weekly in-season)

• 2026 season-long projections: 800+ IDPs

• Full IDP ranking Set: Dynasty, Rookie, Redraft, Best Ball

• 2026 IDP Rookie Draft Guide

• 2026 IDP Draft Guide

• The IDP Show Discord access

• Historical Production vs. Expected data

On April 27th, we will also be launching a new premium subscription called the “S-Tier” that will be $180/year, and includes a host of added perks for supporters:

• Historical IDP prospect model access

• Monthly live office hours/Q&A with Jon

• IDP prop bet analysis

• 50% off roster evals ($25 instead of $50)

• Exclusive supporter podcasts + more

We’ll have much more detail about these revamped tiers and the new perks in a separate email that we’ll send on Sunday. The point is: buckle up. The fire hose is about to open full-blast. As you can tell from his video, Jon is fired up, recharged, and ready to serve this community at the highest possible level. He is hitting the ground running on the podcast, website, YouTube channel, and social media accounts.

Which leads us to one final piece of fun news: Jon will be in person in Bowling Green starting tomorrow for the NFL Draft, along with other members of our team. We’ll record our annual “best and worst landing spots” podcast with him on Saturday night, then join Jon as guests on his first episode as host: a 1 QB rookie mock draft.

The first seven years of this brand have been everything to us. The late nights, the drafts, the leagues, the community that grew up around all of it—we don’t take a single bit of that for granted. But we genuinely believe the next seven years and beyond, with Jon leading this thing full-time, are going to be even better.

Thank you for being here and for supporting this show. The best is still ahead.

Cheers,
Adam, Bobby, & Josh
