Katie Nolan questions if Ben Affleck was sober during Tom Brady roast
"Every time he does anything in sports TV, we get 'is he on drugs?' Affleck."
"Every time he does anything in sports TV, we get 'is he on drugs?' Affleck."
"How do you people live like this?"
"It should've been a red flag."
"I can tell you from reading the words that were written, there was at least a little bit of misogyny in it."
"The format is you talk on television, and people don't want something new all the time."
"There was a point where they cancelled it, and I went into the office of somebody important like 'You can't cancel it!' And out of that meeting, they put it on TV."
The original version of I've Got a Secret ran from 1952 to 1967.
Nolan's departure shouldn't come as a surprise after her comments on how she felt like an odd fit for this booth.
"I was like, are they confused? Do they know what I do?"
"I just was in my head, I was freaked out, I was worried I was going to get fired after one shift of this gig."
“I interviewed for it. Got a little ahead of myself thinking I was gonna get it."
After four years, Nolan and ESPN have parted ways.
"And to the audience, ain't nothing sticking around for 10 years unless it lands with somebody, and this has landed with a lot of people. Thank you for allowing all of us to have the opportunity to do something that could connect with you, in different ways, through different people, and at different times."
Always Late last aired an episode in early 2020, and Nolan today revealed it was canceled last year.
"Normally I'd be like, 'Well, then I go.' But now, I can't do that."
Did that person really just join the call?
ESPN is going after the teen market with a simulcast aimed directly at them.
"I wasn't mad at him, I was mad at the network. Like, 'I told you. I know this show better than anyone else. Cris Carter is incredible, but he will not work on this show. It's not going to work for him.' They didn't listen."
Simmons talked about his Celtics fist pump, a PTI word choice, and more.
Nolan and Nichols will have fellow ESPNers Paul Pierce and Tracy McGrady as players/assistant coaches.
ESPN needs to figure something out to get more interest in their weekly NFL broadcast.
Nolan said she was feeling anxious to get back to work and felt her show was not Fox's top priority.
