Michelle Beadle blindsided by Stephen A. Smith taking over her SiriusXM slot: ‘A little embarrassing'
Michelle Beadle said it was 'a little embarrassing' to learn that her SiriusXM radio show is being replaced by one of Stephen A. Smith's new programs, which are launching this September. During Wednesday's installment of her and Cody Decker's show, 'Beadle and Decker' — which airs every weekday from 12-3 p.m. ET on the Mad Dog Sports Radio channel — Beadle explained that she and Decker found out that Smith's show would take over their time slot a few hours before the news came out on Wednesday. 'Yeah, so the cat's out of the bag, I guess we're talking about it,' Beadle said, adding that she and Decker were 'coming in hot' and doing the show because they were contractually obligated. 4 Michelle Beadle poses for a photo at SiriusXM at Super Bowl LVIII on February 7, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Getty Images for SiriusXM 'We weren't supposed to, just as a heads up. We were only given a few hours notice, but we weren't told any details, we were promised that no details would be released. We didn't even know who was taking our place in the lineup, just that it was going to be announced that a new show was being added. 'Unbeknownst to us, The Hollywood Reporter, of course, had all the details,' Beadle continued. 'So it was a little embarrassing, I'm not going to lie. I've been in this business for 20-plus years, I've been treated poorly a couple times, this didn't feel good, I'm not gonna lie.' 4 Stephen A. Smith on the sideline during Game 4 of the 2025 NBA Western Conference Finals on May 26, 2025 at Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. NBAE via Getty Images Beadle — who formerly hosted ESPN's ' NBA Countdown' before leaving the network in 2019 — did not mention Smith. She is also the host of 'Run It Back,' an NBA-focused talk show on FanDuel TV with former players Chandler Parsons and Lou Williams. Smith announced his multi-year agreement with SiriusXM during an appearance on 'The Howard Stern Show' on Wednesday, and The Hollywood Reporter followed with additional details. 4 Michelle Beadle and Cody Decker at their show, 'Beadle & Decker' at the SiriusXM Studios on August 22, 2023 in New York City. Getty Images Smith will offer his takes on the biggest sports headlines in his Mad Dog Sports Radio show, launching Sept. 2. His second show, described as a 'weekly current events, pop culture and social commentary-focused show,' will debut in September at an exact date that has not yet been announced. Smith also hosts his own YouTube show — separate from ESPN — where he discusses pop culture and politics, among other things. 4 Stephen A. Smith and Chris 'Mad Dog' Russo speak on SiriusXM at Super Bowl LVIII on February 7, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Getty Images for SiriusXM Mad Dog Sports Radio channel is run by Chris 'Mad Dog' Russo, who appears regularly on ESPN's 'First Take' with Smith. Smith's deal with SiriusXM comes after he signed a five-year, $100 million contract extension with ESPN in March, according to The Athletic. 'To say that I'm excited would be an understatement,' Smith said of his deal with SiriusXM. 'I've been on Mad Dog before, had the time of my life. So I'm loving the fact that I get to reunite with my guy, Mad Dog, on his turf. That, in itself, is a beautiful thing. But to then add a weekly show where I have a potent platform to discuss riveting subjects in the world of Pop Culture, Politics and Social Commentary…let's just say it doesn't get any better than that. 'September can't come soon enough. It's been a long time since I've been in radio…especially going back and forth with the callers. Can't wait to get re-started. Buckle Up! I'm coming!'
