SportsNation will take the best of the show that debuted in 2009, and add some new elements to keep it relevant for today’s audience.
The team of Brewer, Scales, and Twellman will recap sports highlights while adding in social media reactions, debate, Top 5 lists, deep dives, interviews, and more.
A list of guests includes ESPN’s Mike Golic, Jr., Ariel Helwani, Cassidy Hubbarth, Katie Nolan, Chiney Ogwumike, Omar Raja, Gary Striewski, Christine Williamson, and Clinton Yates.

What They’re Saying:

Norby Williamson, Executive Vice President, Event and Studio Production & Executive Editor, ESPN: “SportsNation has always been a show anchored by the community and conversation of sports as a social experience. Over the years since its debut in 2009, the show has resonated with fans by evolving, and bringing SportsNation back on ESPN+ gave us the opportunity to reinvent it once again. Taylor, Treavor, and Ashley will take the show in a new direction by injecting their unique style and energy to the brand, while still paying homage to the original SportsNation –entertaining, informing, and connecting with fans in a way that reflects how they consume and engage with sports today.”
Ashley Brewer, SportsNation: “I grew up a huge fan of SportsNation and always admired the talented female hosts who drove the show. I can’t believe I get to be one now! I’m thrilled to be a part of the reboot of an iconic ESPN show, and look forward to putting our own personal fun, high-energy twist on SportsNation.”
Treavor Scales, SportsNation: “This show allows me to be a part of an immensely talented group of people,” said Scales. “From day one, it was apparent that we’re all looking to have a ton of fun with creating it, all while being informative. It’s a fine balance to strike, but Taylor, Ashley and our entire production staff are excited to do just that each and every morning.”
Taylor Twellman, SportsNation: “I am thoroughly pumped for this show and the opportunity to showcase the world of sports in a modern format with a talented group of people through a known brand like SportsNation. Should be fun!”

SportsNation won’t be the only show premiering on January 11. Stephen A’s World will also premiere exclusively on ESPN+ the same day.
