Episode 234 of the Sports Illustrated Media Podcast features an interview with ESPN’s Scott Van Pelt. The “SportsCenter” host talks about what it’s like doing live shows immediately following the NBA Finals, how much of a rush he still gets from live TV, the real story behind him never being invited to the ESPYs, whether he’d have Lavar Ball on his show, whether the legalization of sports betting has changed anything, the time he got pranked on a live “SportsCenter” and much more.
