Dan Le Batard Leaving ESPN

     Dan Le Batard will be leaving the ESPN organization in January. His final program of the Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz on ESPN Radio will happen on January 4. Le Batard will also no longer host Highly Questionable on ESPN television after that date. 

     His departure will impact two local sports format radio stations. Le Batard and his program is broadcast during late mornings on 560 The Joe WQAM-AM in Miami and ESPN West Palm 106.3 WUUB-FM in West Palm Beach. Mike Greenberg will take over those two hours while Alan Hahn and Bart Scott will be plugged in for middays. 

     Le Batard and Stugotz first began to co-host an afternoon show on Sports Talk 790 The Ticket WAXY-AM in August 2004 when it switched to a sports talk format. The program was added to the ESPN Radio lineup in September 2013 and syndicated nationally. 

     The show was moved by ESPN Radio to the midday slot in September 2015. They were later shifted from their 15-year home on 790 The Ticket to 560 WQAM in August 2019 when ESPN Radio replaced CBS Sports Radio in national syndication on WQAM. They also lost their local one-hour portion of the show with the station change. The program was cut to a two-hour, late morning show in August 2020. 

     Dan Le Batard is Highly Questionable began on ESPN2 in August 2011. It has been co-hosted by him, his father Papi, Bomani Jones, Stugotz and other guest co-hosts for the past nine years. The show was eventually shifted to the ESPN channel.
