Angelo, Rhea, and Jay are back for a discussion of the recent reveal that if ESPN was spun off into its own Direct-To-Consumer streaming service, it would likely have to cost somewhere between $30-40 to do the programming its currently doing and remain profitable.  The gang reveals whether they would ever pay $40 to watch ESPN (SPOILER: that's a big, fat NO!).

The gang then dives into cable TV and whether, for all the bellyaching we've done about it over the last 30 years, we were actually better off with a one stop shop for all our entertainment needs and which of the major streamers is best positioned to become the NEW cable.

PLUS: Rhea reviews the new Gal Gadot movie on British Corner, a look back at Stranger Things on Teen Corner, Angelo reviews the new season of Untold and the sitcom, Fisk.

All that and we haven't even mentioned the discussion of American Gladiators or famous sitcom retools!

It's another ACTION PACKED episode!
