About this episode
A lot of fascinating ESPN dynamics to discuss this week. Ryan and I get into the nitty, the gritty and so much more. Topics! Include!
* The dynamics of Ryan Clark’s ESPN firing
* Inside the bizarre race between OutKick and Andrew Marchand to break ESPN’s biggest layoff story
* Is ESPN quietly becoming less political—or is something else really happening?
* The real forces behind ESPN’s layoffs—and why Disney deserves more of the blame than McAfee
* Why losing your ESPN job isn’t the career-ending disaster it used to be
* How YouTube completely changed the economics of sports media careers
* Sophie Cunningham is now probably more famous than A’ja Wilson
* Why the WNBA keeps making decisions that seem to work against its own popularity
* Could Sophie Cunningham become an even better player now that she’s become a cultural phenomenon?
* Can the Blazers really leave Portland—or do NBA expansion economics make relocation almost impossible?
