Mike Tirico To Exit ESPN Radio Show

Mike Tirico is stepping down from his syndicated daily ESPN Radio show with Scott Van Pelt to assume several other radio and TV assignments for the 24/7 sports network. Effective July 6, The Scott Van Pelt Show will air on ESPN Radio from 2-4pm (ET), with Van Pelt hosting the first hour solo before being joined by Boston radio and TV veteran Ryen Russillo for the second hour.  Van Pelt’s and Rusillo’s 3-4pm hour will also feature a television simulcast on ESPN2.

  1. I love Scott Van Pelt. He is refreshingly honest. He and Mike did a fine job together. Scott can carry his own show, he is a fine radio host.
