The Boys are Back!
Last week I reported that the lads who had brought you "World Soccer Daily" as a Sirius radio show and free podcast had packed up the show due to a campaign of intimidation by the Liverpool supporters' clubs in this country. Well....after a little over a week off the air, Steven Cohen and Kenny Hassan are back with a new name - "World Football Daily" - and new incarnation of the show, which will be televised via Ustream. Here's the announcement from their website:
"On Monday, August 31st, World Football Daily will do a complete show, with guests, as we preview what the future of our brand is going to be. It is our intent to change the way football is discussed by bringing a football show of the people, for the people and by the people straight to the people. We hope you will get involved, be active and support this new show. The United States of America will lead the way in fan-based shows covering the beautiful game."
By support, they are indicating that the new show will be "subscriber driven" rather than ad driven, meaning that you'll have to shell out $9.95 per month to listen. As it's a daily routine for me, I'm thinking very seriously on doing this.
For now, you can see their teaser on "Ustream WSD."
