FS1 Shake-Up Unveils Craig Carton-Led Line-Up

WFAN's Craig Carton

As football season kicks off, FS1’s daily studio slate returns in full force – offering 12 consecutive hours of coverage on the network each weekday. The day begins with THE CARTON SHOW, followed by FS1 cornerstones SKIP AND SHANNON: UNDISPUTED and THE HERD WITH COLIN COWHERD. The slate continues with FIRST THINGS FIRST in a new timeslot, followed by a fresh lineup on SPEAK, with NASCAR RACE HUB rounding out the day.

The all-new THE CARTON SHOW kicks off at 7:00 AM ET, featuring Craig Carton taking on the day’s breaking stories alongside a rotating group of co-hosts. Carton, a new addition to the FOX Sports family, is one of New York’s best-known voices, hosting a variety of popular radio shows on WFAN across his lengthy broadcasting career.

At 9:30 AM ET, SKIP AND SHANNON: UNDISPUTED remains the backbone of FS1’s daily lineup, featuring the indomitable Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe. The duo is joined by a new moderator, Jen Hale, a longtime FOX Sports sideline reporter with extensive NFL, NBA and college football experience. UNDISPUTED remains one of the tentpoles of FS1’s programming, continuing to post double digit year-over-year growth entering its sixth year on-air.

THE HERD WITH COLIN COWHERD continues at 12:00 PM ET, featuring Colin Cowherd alongside a new co-host but familiar face, Jason McIntyre. Cowherd, the most interesting voice in sports, applies his unique lens to a variety of topics while featuring interviews with some of the biggest names in the industry. THE HERD remains one of FS1’s most-popular daily studio shows, notching four record-setting months in the past calendar year.

FIRST THINGS FIRST moves to a new studio and a new timeslot at 3:00 PM ET, helmed by Nick Wright, Chris Broussard and Kevin Wildes. The trio offers their take on a bevy of sports stories alongside special guests from across the sports world.

At 4:30 PM ET, the revamped SPEAK takes over the airwaves with Emmanuel Acho, LeSean McCoy and Joy Taylor. Acho, a #1 New York Times Bestselling author and two-time Emmy winner, anchors the show alongside FOX Sports newcomer and former Philadelphia Eagles teammate, McCoy, a two-time Super Bowl Champion and six-time Pro Bowler. They are joined by Taylor, a longtime contributor to FS1’s studio shows and former host of UNDISPUTED and THE HERD, who offers her distinctive opinion from the desk each weekday.

Finally, the day’s programming is rounded out by FS1’s longest-running studio show, the Emmy-nominated NASCAR RACE HUB at 6:00 PM ET. Co-hosted by Adam Alexander, Shannon Spake, Kaitlyn Vincie and Josh Sims, and featuring a rotation of prominent active NASCAR Cup Series drivers as analysts, NASCAR RACE HUB delivers the latest industry news and highlights each weekday and throughout the race weekend.
