Sportscaster Joe Buck To Launch Talk Show

Joe Buck
Joe Buck is getting back into the talk-show business, with a sports-themed program that will be televised on the Audience Network beginning next month and also will be on radio stations across the country, it was announced Tuesday.

Audience Network is owned by DirecTV, which will carry the program along with AT&T U-verse, according to stltoday.com.

Buck, the St. Louisan who is the Fox's network's lead baseball and pro football play-by-play announcer,  had a program on HBO that lasted just three episodes before being dropped in 2010.

His next step in that field will be as host of “Undeniable With Joe Buck,” starting on Nov. 18 and running on subsequent Wednesdays through Feb. 3 — albeit with a two-week break over the year-end holiday season.

The show will air on radio the following days, with KMOX 1120 AM set to carry it in St. Louis.

His first guest is former New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter. Other subjects on the schedule include his NFL broadcast partner, Troy Aikman, as well as hockey's Wayne Gretzkey and soccer's Abby Wambach.
