NBC Sports Radio is launching a brand new show built around “Dan Patrick Show” sidekicks Paul Pabst and Andrew Perloff. “The Leisuremen” will feature Pabst and Perloff of “Dannettes” fame, and air Sunday evenings from 6p-9p ET.
“Andrew and I are connoisseurs of sports. Those who cannot do, watch. We watch way, way too much sports on TV and in person. It’s almost unhealthy, but that works perfectly for this show,” said Pabst.
Perloff added, “Humor and fun are a big part of how we approach sports. Paul and I are friends and when it comes to debating sports, it starts from the second we get to work and doesn’t end until we go to bed. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gotten a text from him at 11:35 pm saying ‘You watching this press conference? What’s with that guy’s sweater?’”
