  • Good show

    I never miss an episode of Jimmy’s show (unless of course there’s fake wrestling involved.) And even though as a Veteran I wanted to punch him in the face when he said he doesn’t root for Team USA at the Olympics, i’ll still keep listening, at least the end with Sal.

  • Jimmy and Sal are great together

    Jimmy always has great guests who he has great conversation with, you feel like he’s friends with everyone. Sal Licata is great as well. Jimmy’s reaction to Sal having seen “Hamnet” was great I would have done a spit take if I was drinking

    The Ben Koo pod was excellent. I never understood exactly what Awful Announcing is so this pod was a Master Class. It was so interesting to hear Ben’s approach to handling what to post and his views on different topics. Tirana Thought with Sal is always great.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

CNBC Media & Sports Reporter, Alex Sherman
Q: How might the Paramount-WBD deal affect the NFL renegotiation timeline and networks' strategies?
Sherman predicts earlier renegotiations driven by the need to secure football longer, with the deal enabling more aggressive terms and potential content integration across platforms.
CNBC Media & Sports Reporter, Alex Sherman
Q: Could we see those TNT college football playoff games move to CBS given CBS's larger reach?
Sherman says it's possible but would involve contract reworking and hoops depending on how language is written; nothing is certain, but the CBS reach could motivate alignment.
Puck's John Ourand on NFL's Media Rights Future
Q: Do you foresee Netflix, Amazon, and YouTube all getting packages in the future?
Yes, the prognosis is that all three will receive some form of package or game allocation moving forward, as the industry shifts toward streaming and the NFL seeks to seed multiple platforms with content.
Puck's John Ourand on NFL's Media Rights Future
Q: Can you envision any scenario where CBS or Fox lose Sunday afternoon packages?
The guest predicts it's unlikely in the near term, with the expectation that packages will be maintained, and only changes might involve a potential upgrade for Amazon to Sunday Night Football, which would alter the balance but not fully displace traditional holders.
NBC's Maria Taylor
Q: What are you looking forward to the most about the Super Bowl pregame show?
Maria expressed that she looks forward to having big stars come through for the Super Bowl tailgate and interweaving entertainment with sports throughout the show.
