Streaming Sports Is Killing Community
Podcast: The Smerconish PodcastPublished On: Tue Jul 01 2025
Description: How much does it cost to be a sports fan today? Try $4,785. Michael Smerconish sits down with journalist Joon Lee to unpack how streaming has splintered sports viewing, inflated fan costs, and eroded one of America’s great cultural touchpoints: watching the game together. From sports bars going silent to six streaming subscriptions just to follow your team, this episode explores the steep financial—and social—price we’re now paying for fandom. Original air date 18 June 2025. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
