FOX Sports Radio (FSR) taps broadcast duo Steve Covino and Rich Davis to join the network's weekday lineup. Covino & Rich will take over the FSR's 5-7pm ET weekday timeslot, effective September 26. The sports-focused program will air on more than 200 stations nationwide, while it will also be available as a podcast directly following each show. With the addition of Covino & Rich to FSR's weekday lineup, The Doug Gottlieb Show will transition from a three-hour program to two hours, weekdays from 3-5pm ET.

Expanding his podcast, Gottlieb will also host a new original daily podcast featuring interviews with the latest newsmakers in sports. Launching September 26, the program will be available via The Doug Gottlieb Show podcast feed on iHeartRadio and other podcast platforms.

Covino and Rich first joined FSR in September 2021 as part of the network's weekend football lineup. In addition to their move from weekends to weekdays on FSR, the duo will continue to host the Covino & Rich live podcast, which debuted in 2004 on SiriusXM.

"We couldn't be more excited to be working with Don, Scott and the entire FOX Sports Radio team," shared Covino and Rich. "We all share the same vision and can't wait to bring the fun and energy every day. To quote every athlete in 2022, 'Let's F'n Go.'"

"Covino and Rich will add a dynamic punch to an already rich roster," said iHeartMedia Sports Executive Vice President of Programming Don Martin and FOX Sports Radio Vice President of Sports Programming Scott Shapiro, in a joint statement. "They're so talented we had to make room for them in what is the best sports talk lineup in the nation. We can't wait to share this one-of-a-kind duo with even more listeners across the country."
