Barrett Sports Media Podcast

The Vegas Stats and Information Network is the brainchild of Brian Musburger. On the 11th episode of Season 2 of the BSM Podcast, Brian shares how the network was born, what the first year in business has been like, how he convinced Brent Musburger to join the upstart company and leave ESPN, where he sees opportunities for future growth, the length of commitments the network has received from SiriusXM and the South Point Casino, how the NFL squashed a potential television partnership, why other broadcast groups will get deeper involved in the sports betting content space and much more. Jason also tackles the 5 in 5 by offering his thoughts on the split between Mitchy Levy and Sports Radio 950 KJR, a strong summer ratings period for sports radio brands, Michelle Beadle’s comments about white males on ESPN, FS1’s aggressive marketing campaign aimed at the New York Knicks and Mike Missanelli’s views on female play by play announcers on NFL games.
