Beginning this Spring, Fusion will simulcast ESPN Radio’s “The Dan Le Batard Show” between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. weekdays. “We are pumped about unleashing the primitive Stugotz on a new and unsuspecting audience,” said Le Batard. “And maybe we will talk some sports, too. Our goal is to not totally break Fusion. But the show will be better on the days we do.”
The network currently airs a variety of programs in the afternoon hours, varying by day of the week, all leading into Fusion’s signature evening program, “Alicia Menendez Tonight.”
“Dan’s smart-yet-irreverent take on sports and the stories making headlines perfectly aligns with Fusion’s desire to present this young, diverse generation with an array of dynamic voices that have an authentic point of view and, at the end of the day, are just are fun to watch,” said Wade Beckett, Fusion’s chief programming officer.
