XFL 2023 TV ratings have “collapsed” competing against March Madness, is there a cause or concern or is this “fine”? We welcome Stormy Buonantony from ESPN and XFL TV broadcast onto the program this week to get her thoughts on XFL 2023 thus far, her access to players, and the storylines she’s tracking through the season. Show fan-favorite Brandon Silvers Quarterback of the Houston Roughnecks and Wide Receiver Jeff Badet of the Vegas Vipers make appearances courtesy of their teams and we talk XFL 2023 TV ratings with Andrew Bucholtz of Awful Announcing. Cody Main, Director of Niche Sports for Establish the Run previews XFL 2023 week 6, and we welcome Senator Larry Smith, former CFL commissioner and newly named Canadian Football Hall of Fame inductee onto the program.
