Noticed this week (haven't listened in a bit) that ESPN is now editing out any swearing from the show. It's 2018 and athletes who fight in a cage for a living can't say the word shit on a show that's only available online. Fuck them. Evolve or die.

I hope this doesn’t cross over into anything else. Been telling people that Disney isn’t going to ruin their favorite things, they just want to rule the world.

Now, Disney talking to Dana about how fans don’t like his attitude sounds appealing, if not hilarious.

Hahaha I figured the commentary would get neutered, but I never thought about Dana. I hope you're right hearing him try to promote without shitting on everyone & everything would be fucking hilarious

Dana as a promoter is most certainly something to be excited for.

Haha I disagree he's awful at it. I heard someone say Shannon Knapp should take over for the bald one and I'm 100% on board
I’m not too familiar with her. But suppose that is a good thing if she isn’t taking center stage. Any recommended interviews or any of the such?

If she is good as you are implying, looking forward to the inevitable

Disney is censoring the word shit and there are people surprised they fired a guy for making pedo statements. Some special mother fuckers in this world

I can hardly watch anymore.

They ruined Ariels show. Youtube views are way the fuck down too
from typical views his show has. ESPN needs to get their shit together

Ariel ran a Q&A session the other week with an ESPN producer
by his side and they took fan questions and suggestions.

Everything we suggested the ESPN producer completely blew off
like it was a non issue. Ariel just kept looking at him and then back
to the camera

Been a month and they still haven't gotten his fucking video feed fixed
so the fighters can see him when he talks to them. (21:48 Mark)

If Helwani indeed sold out to be part of the "big league", this is the price he's paying. There's no way they let you have full say on final product on that level. And if that level is ESPN, you're fucked.

Don't remember any particular interviews off the top of my head, but she's always great when she does radio with TJ

He had to take the shot at the opportunity but he's gotta be thinking
"You mutherfuckers need to let me do me!"
The hired him because he became the most popular voice in MMA media. He became popular because of his interviewing skills, and The MMA Hour, for the most part. Now they want to change him & censor. Brilliant. Fucking idiots.
