Listen "Any Given Streamday"
Episode Synopsis
Dylan Byers joins John to dig into the NFL’s streaming playbook, starting with Friday’s YouTube debut.

They also explore the so-called democratization of sports and news media, the outsized role of live rights, why ESPN’s shiny new app still needs some polishing—and much more.
