In this podcast, we discuss the World Cup airing on Fox Sports from June 11 through July 19; what we are expecting from Fox's coverage; how much Fox Sports will cover news events away from the pitch; the new on-air talent from Rebecca Lowe, to Thierry Henry to Zlatan Ibrahimović; a great NBA Finals Game 1 and what it means; the robust Stanley Cup viewership numbers for Game 1 and what it means heading forward; our thoughts on Russell Wilson and Kyle Long being hired by CBS's The NFL Today; whether Wilson has an authenticity problem and more.  You can subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and more.
