About this episode

The episode discusses the firing of ESPN analyst Ryan Clark during a live broadcast.

ESPN execs told analyst Ryan Clark in the middle of “NFL Live” that he was being let go in the latest round of firings at the network. Reportedly, the decision to tell Clark while he was on the set was made because the bosses were concerned news would leak out before they could tell him themselves. The plan had been to inform him of their decision the following day, when other cuts were made public.  Clark did not finish the show upon hearing the news… he’d been with the network since 2015 and reportedly earned more than $2 million a year under his current contract.
