The Herd with Colin Cowherd

After building up a following -- and, at times, controversy -- for over a decade at ESPN Radio, opinionated host Colin Cowherd has brought his midday talk show, "The Herd," to the FOX Sports family. This FS1 simulcast of the daily FOX Sports Radio program features Cowherd's sometimes-polarizing, but always-bold, commentary on the latest happenings in the world of sports... and beyond. He also welcomes athletes, analysts, beat writers and other guests to share their thoughts on the hot topics of the day. Veteran broadcaster Kristine Leahy joins the show as a contributor. With the move to FS1 also comes a move back to the West Coast for the Washington-born Cowherd, who hosts the show in Los Angeles after being based in Connecticut at his previous employer.

As the hosts of "Speak for Yourself," polarizing personalities Colin Cowherd and Jason Whitlock steer the daily studio show by presenting uniquely differing sports viewpoints. Friends and colleagues for several years, the always outspoken duo covers the biggest news and headlines each day, while additional segments include one-on-one interviews with guest athletes or newsmakers. Multimedia journalist Jason McIntyre, the creator and editor-in-chief of sports media blog The Big Lead, is a contributor on the show.

Sportswriter-turned-TV personality Skip Bayless knows a thing or two about sports debates after participating in them for more than a decade at a competing network's morning show. Now at FS1, he gets top billing on "Skip and Shannon: Undisputed," a daily show that sees Bayless offering his hot takes on the latest sports news opposite Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee Shannon Sharpe, who expands his horizons beyond just pigskin. Joy Taylor moderates and must keep things under control when the debates get heated.

Various networks

FS1's challenge to ESPN's "SportsCenter" in the form of "Fox Sports Live" lasted a little more than two years, with the effort failing in part because traditional sports highlight shows no longer have broad appeal. A new iteration focuses on the chemistry of returning co-anchors Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole (this time they even get title recognition!) in a format that showcases their personalities, senses of humor and interviewing skills.

CBS Sports Network

The popular morning drive program, simulcast from CBS Radio's WFAN studio in New York, features former NFL quarterback and longtime CBS football analyst Boomer Esiason and veteran radio host Craig Carton talking sports for four hours each weekday. The state of New York sports is certainly a main topic of conversation, but the duo also discuss national stories and conduct interviews with current and former sports icons, league personnel, and a variety of national celebrities from the entertainment and music industries.

In 2013, Dan Le Batard brought his weekday Miami radio show to ESPN's national airwaves, continuing his longstanding relationship with the sports conglomerate that began at ESPN The Magazine and morphed years later to ESPN2 as host of the popular series "Highly Questionable." Now ESPNU gets into the act by serving as the simulcast home of Le Batard's three-hour national radio show. Joined by sidekick Jon "Stugotz" Weiner, Dan offers a unique blend of self-deprecating humor, insightful guests, and thought-provoking conversation about major sports issue of the day. As he says, "we look forward to making fun of the powerful, the cliché and ourselves."

This national ESPN Radio show simulcast is hosted by ESPN NBA analyst Jalen Rose and former Grantland writer, podcaster and senior producer David Jacoby. Originally a Grantland podcast, "Jalen & Jacoby" has evolved since it was first developed as a passion project of the hosts in 2011. The show highlights the chemistry between close friends Rose and Jacoby as they break down the latest news in sports and pop culture with humor, intelligence and perspective.

Veteran Miami Herald columnist and radio host Dan Le Batard leads a humorous, critical and sometimes controversial discussion of the hot sports topics of the day, from the Clevelander Hotel in Miami Beach. Known as a thoughtful and witty contrarian, Le Batard is not afraid to speak his mind and let his innate Cuban-American influences shine through, which is apparent in the fast-paced show. He's joined on each 30-minute episode by his father, Gonzalo "Papi" Le Batard.

While "SportsNation" is hosted by Cari Champion, Marcellus Wiley and LZ Granderson, it's really powered by the people, fueled by fan interaction and focused on fun. The lighthearted, hourlong weekday series attracts the youngest demographic of all of ESPN's studio shows, and it's different than many of the network's offerings in that fan engagement and clever, imaginative segments are at the heart of the program. While they day's hottest and weirdest sports topics are covered, also included is discussion of the smaller stories that people are taking about on the internet but often aren't seen on TV.

It seems interactive elements are the foundation upon which ESPN's talk show lineup is built, notably fueling ratings stalwarts "First Take" and "His and Hers," among others. Adopting that tried-and-true format is "Nación ESPN," dedicated to presenting relevant, diverse sports news and information tailored to young, bilingual U.S. sports fans. Driven by fan connectivity, lively debates and engaging discussions -- in both English and Spanish -- the weekly series is hosted by Jorge Sedano, Bernardo Osuna and Marly Rivera, whose varied sports journalism backgrounds and unique points of view are reflective of ESPN's diverse Hispanic audience.
