The Stephen A. Smith Show has made several changes over the last year to make his digital platform one of the most popular podcasts. He transitioned to iHeartMedia's iHeartPodcast network, after originally launching with Audacy's Cadence13.
His next move was to upgrade the video production value of the show. Just before the end of the year, after 20 months on YouTube, Smith has garnered 1 million subscribers. However it's his nephew Josh that has added some comic relief to the program. Take a look.

Social media can't be a real place. Several accusations about Joy Taylor are trending concerning her rise to lead host of her own show on FS1 FOX Sports. Just remember you can't believe everything you read on social media.
However there's a lawsuit out there involving Skip Bayless and offering $1.5 million for intimacy which may be true. (WOW 2025)
Emmanuel Acho has now deleted a video regarding allegations stated in a lawsuit. Details in the document allege he and an executive at FS1 had romantic relations with Joy Taylor to help her secure a better job back in 2022.

Howard Eskin’s departure last month from 94.1 WIP came after he shouted at and then grabbed a female employee of the radio station twice during a commercial break according to multiple sources.
The incident happened at a South Philly restaurant during a remote broadcast Eskin hosted with Eagles player Brandon Graham on Sportsradio 94 WIP. Audacy, the parent company announced days later that Eskin and the station had “parted ways” after 38 years.
UPDATE:
Eskin reportedly received a text from the EAGLES stating they wanted Graham off the show because he implied there was tension in the locker room between QB Jalen Hurts and WR AJ Brown.
Eskin hasn't had a good history with females recently.
Howard Eskin is denying reports that he became physical with a now former female co-worker at Audacy.
"I had hoped to avoid commenting on my departure from WIP but the vicious smear campaign being waged against me by a small group of employees at the station forces me to defend myself. There was absolutely no “physical altercation” between me and a female employee at the station." - from X/Twitter
Despite the fact that the Amanda Seales Show is listed on the Reach Media website, she has been taken off the air with the start of 2025. She had been fired from her position almost three weeks ago and the stations ran replays of her previous shows.
Reach Media has not named a replacement.
Seales' show aired middays at Radio One flagship FM station Majic 102.3/92.7 in the DMV. She aired in the mornings on 100.3 WRNB in Philly, which leaves the station without a morning show. It's sister station, Classix 107.9, does not have a morning show as well with the departure of Russ Parr about a year ago. Both stations play music with traffic updates.
