SBJ Morning Buzzcast: July 23, 2024

Start your morning with Buzzcast with Austin Karp: Warner Bros. Discovery thinks it can match Amazon's NBA deal; Jim Phillips comes out swinging during ACC Media Days; Calgary looks to finally be getting a new NHL arena; and Ohio State football fans are buying up season tickets in bulk.

NBC’s Dan Hicks, Fox Sports’ Ben Valenta and NBA media rights deal nearing the finish line

On the pod this week, with strong viewership in the books for both the Euros and Copa America, SBJ’s Austin Karp brings in Fox Sports SVP Ben Valenta to break down numbers around the “Summer of Soccer.” NBC's Dan Hicks joins us from the Open Championship at Royal Troon to talk golf, plus his upcoming assignment at the Paris Olympics alongside his longtime TV partner and swimming gold medalist Rowdy Gaines. And SBJ's Mollie Cahillane also stops in as the NBA media rights deal gets closer to the finish line.
