In this week’s Marchand and Ourand Sports Media Podcast sponsored by WSC Sports:
YouTube TV just released prices for its “NFL Sunday Ticket” package, which is the opening topic on this week’s podcast. Hosts Andrew Marchand and John Ourand discuss why the streaming company made its prices so high and what innovations consumers should expect. The two also dive into the Pac-12’s media rights negotiations, outlining the expected timetable to reach a deal and why The CW is not a likely destination for the college conference’s rights.
Marchand and Ourand take a deep dive into CBS and ESPN’s coverage of The Masters, including a review of Jim Nantz’s performance as lead announcer and the networks’ mid-round interviews with golfers that were competing in the tournament, including Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas. Ourand provides and update on Warner Bros. Discovery’s regional sports network strategy, and Marchand previews the NBA’s playoff storylines.
