Barstool Sports’ Brandon Walker: NBC Olympics With Snoop Dogg More Valuable Than NBA All-Star Game

Barstool Sports personality Brandon Walker is not shy about critiquing major networks, and on Monday’s edition of Mostly Sports, he turned his attention squarely toward NBC Sports over its handling of Sunday night programming during a crowded sports calendar that included both the NBA All-Star Game and ongoing coverage of the Winter Olympics.

Walker questioned NBC’s decision to preserve Olympic programming in primetime while shifting other marquee properties earlier in the day. Albeit the NBA announced the game time would shift due to their network agreement with NBC this season, Walker framed the move as a deliberate.

“NBC owns the world. NBC has everything,” Walker said. “NBC had the Super Bowl in the middle of the Olympics. Then had the NBA All Star game in the middle of the Olympics. But they’re not going to stop having the Olympics. They still want their Olympics prime time, so they moved everything up.”

His comments suggest that NBC’s scheduling strategy reflects a long-held belief. The network views Olympic coverage as having a distinct primetime identity. It appears reluctant to dilute that brand. That remains true even when competing properties could draw significant viewership in the same window.

Walker then sharpened his tone by contrasting the NBA’s exhibition showcase with NBC’s personality-driven Olympic features. He specifically highlighted the prominent role of Snoop Dogg within the broadcast.

“We could watch the NBA All Star game on Sunday Night prime time or we could watch Snoop Dogg find out what speed skating is in real time,” Walker joked. “We can watch him go to somebody’s training facility and be like, wow, what are you what are you doing? That’s crazy, and that’s what we that’s what the Olympics are these days.”

NBC has leaned heavily into celebrity integrations throughout its recent Olympic presentations, often pairing athletes with entertainers to create shareable moments designed to resonate beyond traditional sports audiences.

Walker, however, argued that the approach risks overshadowing the athletes themselves when the storytelling centers too frequently on a celebrity’s reactions.

“I don’t think they [NBC Sports] have what they think they have,” Walker said. “I think they believe America wants to view the Olympics through Snoop Dogg’s eyes. I don’t think that’s the case. I’m as entertained by the guy as the next guy. Give me twice an Olympics, that’s plenty. But every night. Whoever the medal hopeful is for America, they go to an interview with Snoop Dogg where he’s just mystified by the fact they can stand up on skates.”

NBC has consistently defended its broader Olympic strategy as an effort to expand reach and modernize presentation for evolving audiences, emphasizing cross-platform accessibility and entertainment value alongside competition. Still, Walker’s critique highlights an ongoing debate about whether celebrity-driven features enhance Olympic storytelling or gradually shift the spotlight away from the competitors whose performances anchor the Games. Also the events that drive interest annually being less valuable to networks than the Games themselves.

Curtis Sliwa: It’s Time for Me to Get Back Into the Mix with Talk Radio

Curtis Sliwa: It’s Time for Me to Get Back Into the Mix with Talk Radio

Former 77 WABC host Curtis Sliwa has been away from a permanent place in the talk radio landscape in New York since departing the station to run for Mayor in the Big Apple last year.

However, he says it is time for him to get back into the game in New York.

While filling in for 710 WOR midday host Mark Simone on Monday, Sliwa said he’s received urges from power brokers in the city to not return to the airwaves.

“I gotta tell you, a lot of people would tell me, ‘Don’t go back to talk radio. You’ve done it for 35 years,'” Sliwa said. “People have wanted me to do videos or podcasts. I’ve got a lot of Gen Z’s and millennials now following me … They don’t listen to talk radio. Come on. Let’s be honest. They don’t listen to talk radio. It’s people 55-plus. But the other day, my wife said on Valentine’s Day ‘You got a mission. Everywhere we go, people say, ‘Hey, would you come back and save talk radio?’

“So stay tuned, ladies and gentlemen,” Sliwa continued. “It’s time for me to get back into the mix of talk radio, in addition to all of the other things I’m doing.”

During his monologue, Curtis Sliwa reiterated his claim that he would never return to 77 WABC after he felt he was backstabbed by those both on-air and behind the scenes at the station during his run for Mayor.

While he did not announce any concrete plans for when or where he would return to news/talk radio permanently, Curtis Sliwa is billed as appearing at a 710 WOR event alongside morning host Larry Mendte and midday host Mark Simone later this week.

Stephen A. Smith Believes He Is Not The Face Of ESPN

Stephen A. Smith Believes He Is Not The Face Of ESPN

Stephen A. Smith is one of the most recognizable figures in sports media, yet he is not ready to claim a title that many viewers and critics casually assign to him. During a recent appearance on CBS Sunday Morning, Smith addressed the perception that he serves as the face of ESPN, offering a measured response that blended humility with an acknowledgment of the audience’s influence on his stature.

“I don’t know if they’ve made me the face of ESPN,” Smith said. “I don’t even try to consider myself that half the time. I work, and I put in the work. The people decide who the face is. I would tell you, they recognize that, and they’ve rewarded me accordingly.”

The comments reflect a theme Smith has leaned into throughout his career: visibility is earned daily rather than assumed. While his presence across marquee programming has made him synonymous with ESPN for many viewers, Smith suggested that such a designation ultimately belongs to the public, not the personality.

At the same time, he did not dismiss the significance of his role. Instead, he emphasized that recognition from both management and audiences stems from sustained effort and reliability, qualities he believes shaped his latest contract with the network.

Smith also explained why financial security has not altered his approach to the job.

“I take credit for this, I’ve proven I’m trustworthy,” he said. “In other words, I’m not the kind of guy that’s gonna take the money and run. I’m not the kind of guy that’s working my tail off, and then all of a sudden I got the money. So suddenly I’m not gonna work my tail off. The same things that I did to achieve what I achieved. I will strive to continue to do, plus elevate on top of that to make them not out to be liars. Now, hopefully over the next four and a half years, I’m able to pull that off. That is clearly the goal.”

Consequently, Smith framed his continued workload as validation rather than obligation. He said it reflects the confidence ESPN showed when structuring his contract. Smith added that maintaining, and even elevating, his output serves both personal pride and corporate credibility. That stance carries added weight as media contracts and on-air talent face increased scrutiny.

CBS News to Retain Dr. Peter Attia as Contributor After Epstein Files Controversy

CBS News to Retain Dr. Peter Attia as Contributor After Epstein Files Controversy

Dr. Peter Attia appeared sporadically throughout the Epstein Files, showing a friendly relationship with the disgraced New York financier, even after being convicted of sex-related offenses. Those revelations came to light after he had been announced as a contributor to CBS News. After a push for the network to cut ties with him, it has reportedly decided against such a move.

Attia was one of 19 new contributors announced last month. That announcement came just days before he was featured in emails to Jeffrey Epstein, glowing about his relationship with the convicted sex offender. His name appeared nearly 2,000 times in the files, with almost all of the messages coming after Epstein’s 2008 conviction.

Attia, who is a science researcher, podcaster, and author, has apologized for his messages to Epstein. He noted that he met Epstein in 2014 and was present at his Manhattan home several times, but said he never participated in any illegal activities.

According to a report from The Guardian‘s Jeremy Barr, CBS News has ultimately decided to keep Attia as a contributor. That decision comes after reports surfaced stating that new Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss was completely against dismissing Attia, stating that severing ties would be giving in to a mob mentality and would equate to cancel culture.

“Everyone internally unofficially concluded he was staying as of about a week ago,” a CBS News employee told The Guardian.

NPR Host David Greene Suing Google After Claiming AI Tool Replicated His Voice

NPR host David Greene is suing Google, arguing that its AI podcast tool replicated his voice without his permission.

Greene claimed in an interview with The Washington Post that NotebookLM, the Google AI podcast machine that generates summaries of texts and sources for podcast-style audio, utilized his voice for its male speaking companion.

“I was, like, completely freaked out,” Greene said. “It’s this eerie moment where you feel like you’re listening to yourself.”

Greene alleges that Google violated his rights by launching the technology utilizing his voice without compensation. He added that co-workers have stated that the voice sounds like his in both email and text messages.

David Greene previously hosted Morning Edition for NPR before retiring in 2020. He now helms Left, Right & Center for KCRW.

Meanwhile, Google has denied any wrongdoing in the case.

“These allegations are baseless,” a Google spokesperson said. “The sound of the male voice in NotebookLM’s Audio Overviews is based on a paid professional actor Google hired.”

Warner Bros. Discovery Reportedly Considering New Discussions With Paramount Skydance

Warner Bros. Discovery Reportedly Considering New Discussions With Paramount Skydance

Warner Bros. Discovery’s board is reportedly signaling a willingness to reopen discussions with Paramount Skydance as the company weighs a revised acquisition proposal that competes with its previously announced $83 billion agreement to sell key assets to Netflix.

Paramount Skydance submitted its latest proposal — the ninth since negotiations began last year — on February 10, outlining updated financial terms that include a so-called “ticking fee” worth approximately $650 million per quarter if a transaction is not completed by December 31, 2026.

Bloomberg first reported over the weekend that WBD’s board has grown more receptive to re-engaging.

Previously, the board moved swiftly to dismiss Paramount Skydance’s overtures, describing them as insufficient to disrupt the existing deal with Netflix, which was reached in December and centers on Warner Bros. and HBO Max.

However, the sales process involving the studio and its premium content arm has drawn increased scrutiny. Investors and corporate governance observers are examining the situation closely. They are evaluating whether directors have met their fiduciary responsibilities.

Should Warner Bros. Discovery re-enter talks, the move could strengthen the board’s position. It may help as shareholders prepare potential litigation. Lawsuits often follow transactions of this scale and complexity. The company is expected to address the revised proposal soon. It will also announce the timing of its fourth-quarter 2025 earnings report after the Presidents’ Day holiday.

Investors are also awaiting details regarding a planned special shareholder vote to approve the Netflix transaction. It remains unclear whether renewed engagement with Paramount Skydance would alter that timetable.

Under the terms of the December agreement, Netflix retains the right to match any superior offer prior to closing. That provision could prove pivotal if WBD determines that Paramount Skydance’s latest bid represents a stronger financial or strategic outcome for shareholders.

The competing structures add another layer of complexity. Netflix’s agreement focuses on acquiring Warner Bros. and HBO Max, whereas Paramount Skydance has expressed interest in purchasing the entirety of Warner Bros. Discovery, including its portfolio of cable networks such as CNN, TNT, Discovery, HGTV and Food Network.

Regulatory considerations loom over both paths. As the board navigates mounting legal, regulatory and investor pressure, its next steps will signal whether the December agreement remains the preferred destination or merely the starting point in a broader bidding contest.

Emery Songer Exits Afternoons at 1110 KFAB

1110 KFAB afternoon host Emery Songer is departing the iHeartMedia Omaha news/talk station to focus on his efforts in middays at 1040 WHO in Des Moines.

Songer has helmed afternoons since June 2023. He joined 1110 KFAB after previously serving as the morning show producer at 1040 WHO for five years.

In a statement, 1110 KFAB Program Director Scott Voorhees shared that Songer won’t be completely gone from the station despite hosting his final show with the outlet last Friday.

“We at NewsRadio 1110 KFAB salute Emery Songer as he does what’s best for his personal and professional life in stepping away from his KFAB/Omaha show in the afternoon to focus on his morning show for our friends at WHO/Des Moines,” said Voorhees. “You will still hear him plenty on our radio station, hopefully for years to come, in various capacities.”

Voorhees alluded to a new host being named in the coming days, adding that details will be released this week.

The exit of Emery Songer marks the latest change for 1110 KFAB in recent months. Longtime morning host Gary Sadlemeyer retired in December, with Voorhees taking over morning drive.

In the Barrett Media Top 20 of 2025 series, Emery Songer earned 20th place in the Mid-Market News/Talk Radio Midday Show category for his work at 1040 WHO. He finished just outside the top 20 in the Mid-Market News/Talk Radio Afternoon Show category with his show on 1110 KFAB.

How Sports Radio Can Get off the Bench as AI Transforms the Live Game Experience

How Sports Radio Can Get off the Bench as AI Transforms the Live Game Experience

The viewing experience for sports fans is on the cusp of changing forever. Not because of a new play-by-play hire or former athlete in the booth, but because of the continued adaptation of artificial intelligence into the broadcast experience. NBA commissioner Adam Silver spent his All-Star Saturday press conference heralding the excitement about what adaptations could be coming to a sports telecast near you.

The options are seemingly limitless: games in any language, muting commentary, alternative commentary such as alt-casts, social media interactions, and more. The leagues are attempting to make the broadcast model more inclusive than the networks that pay to carry the games themselves. This presents a massive opportunity for sports radio.

Far too often, sports radio has lagged behind trends in how sports fans seek content in the digital landscape. However, if the NBA and other leagues are becoming more welcoming to additional partners or ideas for unique in-game content, the time is now for sports radio to plan its own alt-cast.

Depending on the market, the debate about what defines success for sports radio differs. In totality, it is a combination of ratings share, revenue, and digital reach and engagement. Some markets value one metric more than others, while some no longer consider traditional ratings share to hold significant value in 2026.

The other two metrics still apply heavily to every market: how to grow the audience on the digital frontier while applying sponsorship dollars to the effort. For decades, sports fans have sought content on their own timeline, and sports radio has adapted. However, in most cases, it has played from behind, lagging behind the rise of sports podcasts and their expansion into video distribution.

How sports radio adapts to AI is the next challenge facing the format. While some broadcast companies ensure a guaranteed human approach, others have attempted to apply AI models to what consumers have always trusted. Like anything in radio, the process has involved trial and error, with lessons to be learned.

When Adam Silver said the viewing experience could change forever, with limitless ways to watch NBA games, my sports radio antennas went up. If NBA fans will soon choose who they listen to during a broadcast, why shouldn’t sports radio hosts be ready to meet that demand?

Or will this be another opportunity that sports radio lets go to the voice of a local podcaster?

If what the research says is true — that sports radio hosts rank among the most trusted voices for consumers — why not lean completely into that notion? For example, if AI is going to allow me as an NBA viewer to watch the game while choosing who I want to hear commentate on it, why isn’t my sports radio host an option?

This past College Football Playoff National Championship game offered options where I could listen to the Indiana radio network or the Miami Hurricanes radio network while watching the game on ESPN Unlimited.

What’s to say that, with advancing technology, ESPN or the University of Indiana couldn’t reach an agreement with 93.5 and 107.5 The Fan that would allow me to access a second screen featuring Kevin Bowen, Jeff Rickard, and James Boyd providing a watch-along cast?

You could also turn it around and ask why the same couldn’t apply for Hurricanes fans with Joe Rose or Hochman, Crowder and Solana.

Am I wrong to think the NBA would be open to more content hubs providing real-time coverage of its product? Is it unreasonable to believe that a major professional sports league would welcome partnered radio broadcasters to add a localized feel that fans could select as a go-to option on their television broadcasts?

With AI, nothing seems impossible, and leagues are starting to take notice. Sports radio brands should as well.

We have already seen how the rise of alt-casts has provided more options for viewers to watch and enjoy games. Why wouldn’t networks and leagues work with local partners in their markets to create a more affordable way to expand their content distribution models?

If WWE can lean into the streaming watch-along community and showcase those reactions in montages, why wouldn’t professional sports take the next step? In the race to create content, leagues constantly search for innovative ways to engage with their fan bases anytime, anyplace, anywhere.

Rather than relying primarily on sports betting advertising revenue for survival, sports radio should prioritize being live during games. That strategy may represent its last clear opportunity to disrupt. It could prove critical before AI begins to challenge the trusted voice of the local host.

The blueprint is available. Next time you’re watching your local team, do a quick search on YouTube, Twitch, or Rumble. The watch-along demo reel is there, now it’s on sports radio to enhance and own it.

Instead of waiting to see how AI reshapes the sidelines, sports radio should sprint toward it. The next great competitive advantage will not be who hires the splashiest former athlete or who wins the next ratings book. It will be who embeds themselves into the live game experience in a way that feels indispensable.

If fans are being handed the remote — and soon the algorithm — to decide how they experience a game, sports radio faces a choice. It can remain a reactionary medium, recapping what already happened. Or it can become a selectable layer of the broadcast itself.

The technology is arriving whether radio participates or not. The leagues are exploring it. The networks are evaluating it. The fans are expecting it.

So the real question isn’t whether AI will change sports broadcasting.

It’s whether sports radio will be bold enough to change with it.

Because in a world where viewers can choose any voice, in any language, with any tone, the most valuable currency won’t be signal strength — it will be trust.

And if sports radio truly believes its hosts are the most trusted voices in the market, then the time has come to prove it. Not after the game, not the next morning, but live, in the moment, as part of the experience itself.
