Episode 568 of "SI Media With Jimmy Traina" features a conversation with TNT's Mike Golic Jr, who will be an analyst for Big 12 college football games this season.
Golic Jr. talks about going into a full-time role as an analyst after working just four games last year, the changing television landscape in college football and trying to keep up with which teams are in which conference.
In addition, Golic reveals the best and worst thing about doing a daily show with his father, what his reaction was to the end of Mike Golic Sr.'s longtime radio show, "Mike & Mike and how they navigate the world of gambling while doing a show for FanDuel.
Golic also talks about the role social media has played in his career and where he stands with social media today.
Following Golic Jr., Sal Licata from WFAN and SNY joins Jimmy for their weekly "Traina Thoughts" segment. This week, Jimmy talks about his day at a CBS NFL media event, Sal getting duped by a fake Odell Beckham Jr. retirement announcement, the circus of rumors surrounding Howard Stern and the future of his SiriusXM show, a terrible taxi cab incident and more.
