Summary

On the Friday sports edition of 'Will Cain Country,' Will and The Crew dive into the viral Coldplay “cheating scandal” and debate the morality of public shaming over private failings as the video that everyone is talking about continues to spread. They then break down the major Barstool–Fox Sports media deal and what it says about the industry’s shift back toward corporate platforms. Are "pirate ships" less appealing than initially believed? Also, what rules would you change in sports to make them more appealing or exciting? Will and The Crew suggest rule changes, like shifting soccer’s offside rules or reducing replay, to make sports more fun and fast-paced. And finally, with the cancellation of 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,' is this the beginning of the death of traditional late-night comedy in an era of podcasts, social media, and ideological fatigue?
