ESPN Radio will debut First and Last with Lundberg & Golic Jr., hosted by Robin Lundberg and Mike Golic Jr., on Monday, April 4, at 4 a.m. ET. The two-hour program will recap the previous night's highlights and delve into the coming day's stories and will be preceded by a two-hour edition of SPORTSCENTER AllNight (2 - 4 a.m.), making ESPN Radio live 24 hours a day on weekdays.
"We are constantly looking for new, aggressive ways of serving sports fans," said David Roberts, vice president,
ESPN Audio Network Content. "Providing sports talk and information LIVE around the clock during the week underscores our commitment to offering our listeners another opportunity to engage with our network through a strong opinion-based program. Robin Lundberg and Mike Golic Jr. will set the table perfectly for our flagship franchise, Mike and Mike."
"This past year, I've been very fortunate to work with a lot of great people and with a great audience on the weekends," said Golic Jr. "I'm very excited to have the chance now to interact with the weekday crowd and to do so with someone as talented as Robin Lundberg."
Added Lundberg: "For the last few years I've been able to connect to a loyal fan base in this time slot in New York and am thrilled to be able to expand that audience and be partnered with someone like Mike Golic Jr. as together we set the agenda for the day's talk."
Lundberg began his career with an internship at ESPN's
AROUND THE HORN while still in college at the University of Maryland. Most recently on
ESPN New York 98.7 FM, Lundberg hosted his own program, The Robin Lundberg Show, on weekday mornings. He currently hosts the weekend Robin Lundberg show on the national
ESPN Radio network.
Golic Jr. joined
ESPN in November 2015, teaming with his father, Mike & Mike co-host Mike Golic, on a

COLLEGE FOOTBALL analyst during
