ESPN Radio is adding a new program to its weekday schedule. The network will debut First and Last with Lundberg & Golic Jr., featuring Robin Lundberg and Mike Golic Jr., starting Monday, April 4th. The show will air weekdays from 4a-6a ET.
“We are constantly looking for new, aggressive ways of serving sports fans,” said David Roberts, vice president, ESPN Audio Network Content. “Providing sports talk and information LIVE around the clock during the week underscores our commitment to offering our listeners another opportunity to engage with our network through a strong opinion-based program. Robin Lundberg and Mike Golic Jr. will set the table perfectly for our flagship franchise, Mike and Mike.”
Lundberg has been a mainstay on ESPN New York 98.7 FM, hosting his own program, The Robin Lundberg Show, since 2012. He’s been with ESPN in a multitude of roles since 2006.
Golic Jr. joined ESPN in November 2015, teaming with his father, Mike & Mike co-host Mike Golic, on a college football and NFL-focused podcast, Mike & Mike Jr. Since then, he’s served as a guest host on Mike & Mike, a college football analyst during ESPN Radio’s broadcast of the the 2015 Hawai’i Bowl and debuted in January 2016 as a host of the weekend program Rothenberg Mike’d Up on ESPN Radio, with Dave Rothenberg and Michael Wallace.
