Audacy adds "The Rich Eisen Show," with veteran sports broadcaster and NFL Network anchor Rich Eisen, to Infinity Sports Network. Eisen will be heard on the network, weekdays from 12-3pm ET beginning January 6. The show features Eisen's blend of football expertise with an offbeat mix of humor and pop culture while attracting guests including Tom Brady, Matt Damon, Jerry Seinfeld, Jodie Foster, Matthew McConaughey, John Hamm, Larry David, Morgan Freeman and more.
"We are delighted to welcome Rich to the Infinity Sports Network lineup," said Infinity Sports Network and WFAN Brand Manager Ryan Hurley. "Rich has always delivered great content and guests to his audience, and we can't wait for that to continue starting January 6th."
"I'm thrilled to be expanding my relationship with Westwood One and Audacy by providing my show as a tentpole for the Infinity Sports Network," added Eisen. "I look forward to all the new possible first-time callers to become long-time listeners and expand my podcast audience along with it."
One of television's most visible anchors and personalities, Eisen was a mainstay on ESPN's SportsCenter from 1996-2003 before becoming the first air talent added to the NFL Network in June 2003. In 2014, Eisen created "The Rich Eisen Show." Now in its eleventh year, both Eisen and the show have received multiple Emmy nominations for Outstanding Personality/Studio Host and Outstanding Studio Show-Daily. Additionally, Eisen has also been recognized with one of radio's highest honors when he was named Network/Syndicated Personality of the Year at the Marconi Radio Awards for his work on the show in 2023.
In 2017, Eisen became the 12th Pat Summerall Award recipient at the St. Jude Legends of Charity Dinner. A tireless supporter of St. Jude, Eisen transitioned his annual Spring "Run Rich Run" event to become a fundraiser and has raised over $7 million for the children's hospital.
Infinity Sports Network is distributed and sold by Westwood One as part of a partnership with Audacy.
