Jim generates an electric atmosphere on the air that's dense with attitude, humor, and hipness. Rather than gunning for controversy and confrontation, Jim aims to engage and challenge his callers.

Added Traug Keller, senior vice president, production, business divisions: "Having a daily radio show hosted by Mike Tirico will cement our position as the sports listen of record in mid-day talk radio. And, Stephen A. Smith's strong voice will be a welcome addition for our national radio audience."

"It is a thrill to return to my roots in two different ways as radio is the medium where I started my career during my college days at WAER in Syracuse, and I remember being part of the team the first weekend ESPN Radio hit the air in January of 1992," Tirico said. "I am really looking forward to returning to the day-to-day sports conversation that is talk radio."

Tirico will be joined on a regular basis by other ESPN commentators to be announced at a later date.
