Last Word On Sports Media Podcast

We're back with another editon of the insightful and informative look at the world of Sports Media, as part of the "Last Word on Sports Media' podcast feed.
Host T.J. Rives returns with thoughts on the NFL "Super Wild Card Weekend" results and the humungous TV numbers for the games, even with NBC using the Peacock app to stream the Chiefs and the Dolphins. Still, even though they and the NFL are touting the 23 million who watched, it was still dwarfed by the over the air Networks on Sunday and Monday Night, too.
T.J. also gives his thoughts on a series of ESPN controversies from fake Sports Emmy Awards, to Pat McAfee apparently having no one to really answer to, if he wants to sound off, blast away and even criticize one of his top bosses. Which, by the way, Mcafee did last week.
Plus, what's up the NFL potentially buying part of ESPN and potentially letting them take over "NFL Media' including their Network, their website and the Red Zone, etc.?? T.J. has thoughts on the eroding of journalism and truth seeking and the blurring of the lines through acquisition and merger of media companies and entites, now being more and more the same.
Then, hear from Fox Sports' Shannon Spake, who's part of the network's weekly NFL coverage, as a sideline reporter and also their host of the show "The Race Hub" weekdays on FS1 Cable on NASCAR. How did Shannon become such a big fan of the sport and what are some are favorite parts of the roles she has, etc. It's a very fun and engaging conversation.
