In this week’s Marchand & Ourand Sports Media Podcast, Mike Tirico joins the show one year before the start of the Summer Olympics in Paris. Tirico talks about his preparation for hosting those games with NBC and his role in covering geopolitical stories during the games. Tirico describes how he broke into the business, how he landed a job at ESPN and what made him move to NBC. Tirico also discusses the situation early in his NBC tenure when he wasn’t calling NFL games and how he kept from being frustrated.
Marchand and Ourand open the podcast with a discussion around the company Disney is most likely to pick as a strategic partner on ESPN, from Comcast to sports leagues to venture capital to Big Tech to gambling. The two hosts then talk about the story Ourand broke about the number of MLS Season Pass subscribers approaching 1 million. Conversation turns to parsing Apple’s sports ambitions further and a review of the Pac-12’s Media Day. As always, Marchand and Ourand give their picks for Who’s Up and Who’s Down in sports media for the week.

Messi 🐐
MESSI GOAT
Messi is already bigger than jordan lol what yah saying he is the goat 🐐
The guy on the right tried to change Messi subject lol 😂 what’s wrong with this guy
He is already like Jordan in football all over the world, not in the US but he do not need them. He is not really a media person, so you are out of the blue here.
