Iowa-LSU record audience, reviewing ESPN's coverage, and can the Caitlin Clark phenomenon be repeated?

Apr 3, 2024

On today's episode, Jon Lewis and Drew Lerner dive deep into the record-setting viewership for Iowa-LSU. The crew covers the 12.3m viewers number in context, what this number means for the Final Four games this Friday, where expectations should be set for women's college basketball next season without Caitlin Clark, and if this was the most heavily anticipated viewership number ever. Then, Jon and Drew discuss whether or not ESPN's broadcast of the game was able to meet the moment. They also go over numbers for last weekend's men's Elite Eight and the impact of the Easter holiday on out-of-home viewing before closing out the show with a discussion on what it would take to replicate a phenomenon like Caitlin Clark.
