The Pat McAfee Show is gearing up for its ESPN debut. Disney’s ownership of ESPN has led to strict standards, which means the show will be aired on tape delay to control any potential profanity. Starting Thursday, September 7, the weekday sports talk show will grace ESPN, ESPN+, and ESPN’s YouTube channel from noon to 3 p.m. ET.
NFL analyst Dov Kleiman took to Twitter to share this news, stating, “The Pat McAfee Show will be aired on tape delay on ESPN to control possible cursing. Disney owns ESPN, so profanity isn’t acceptable. The McAfee Show begins her first ESPN broadcast on noon Thursday. An uncensored version will be aired on YouTube.”
This collaboration between ESPN and McAfee is set to deliver the audience an in-depth analysis of the game, and an elevated exposure for the former punter. Moreover, McAfee will gain access to advanced production setup and a few low-key NFL insights, that are not easily available to the public domain.
Subsequently, it is just going to add up to the viewership of the “Pat McAfee Show”. However, Pat McAfee’s journey from an NFL punter to an NFL analyst was nothing short of a remarkable evolution in the sporting and entertainment landscape, which highlights his unwavering dedication that potentially led to success.
