ESPN Radio is rolling out the red carpet for The Undefeated! The network plans to air The Undefeated on ESPN Radio special on Saturday May 14th from 5p-7p ET according to ESPN Media Zone. The show will be hosted by The Undefeated senior writers Clinton Yates, Jill Hudson and Justin Tinsley.
During the span of the two-hour show, listeners will be introduced to the new digital platform, and given insight into the brand’s vision. Other key highlights will include a preview of Spike Lee’s Lil’ Joints: Redemption Song, and appearances by senior NBA writer Marc Spears, and 30 For 30 director Ezra Edelman, who directed the OJ Simpson: Made in America documentary.
The program will also dive into deeper discussion on issues that normally aren’t explored on the national radio network. They’ll examine slavery in pop culture and entertainment, the rise of black Marvel superheroes, and whether or not black colleges and universities are dying off.
