*Due to contractual limitations with certain content, especially
play-by-play broadcasts, there are times when the schedule thats on-air
wont match the schedule thats online. While we make every effort to update
the schedule, occasionally the nature of play-by-play broadcasting limits
our ability to accurately present the latest schedule (ie., rain delays,
last minute schedule changes). We apologize for any inconvenience this
causes. If you have specific schedule questions, please contact the station
directly by visiting their website.

Pros and cons of ESPN Radio app for iPhone and iPad
ESPN Radio app good for
Its does what it says and it helps me stay up to date on on FIRST TAKE
Would be nice to have "Live Radio" section open show automatically when initiating the app, and/or have your favorite ESPN Radio station open upon opening the app. Otherwise the app works great for me.
Ive used this app for the last few years. Its been reliable and is updated quickly. However, Its still not updated to fit my iPhone plus screen, which is kind of annoying. I also noticed the removal of the seek button which is very disappointing. I use this from start to end of my work day, and I think I speak for other users of this app to say it needs an update and some more modern radio features.
I never have any issues with this app. It lets me listen to a ton of games while Im bathing the baby or running around the house. Definitely a must have for out of town New Yorkers as well. Added bonus is muting NBC Sports and listening to ESPN Radio coverage instead.
Please take off the "Listen To On ESPN app" banner off!!! Its pointless and not needed... I have ESPN Radio for a reason and would rather use it than the ESPN app for my listening
I love that I can listen to Jalen and Jacoby consistently. Got this app just to listen to the best podcast.
Some bad moments
1/4 of the screen is an ad to the ESPN app really?
Thank you for this service. I value the Radio app because you can download certain podcasts and radio shows.
But why have such a massive ad? it adds really nothing you can have a thinner ad that sends the same message and make the app more user-friendly. Unless of course you want users to move away from this app.
Latest version has a huge ESPN.com banner ad, which is very much in the way and unmovable.
Not sure why, but ESPN seems to be discouraging listeners... They removed seeking more than a year ago, and now they are trying to force us to the ESPN app, which is even worse than this one!
STOP ruining our radio experience, ESPN!
Get rid of the ESPN ad, stop pushing for other products, be happy you have customers already
Before the banner came up I would listen when I went to bed. It was not ok. Till the mega stupid morons who came up with the idea to put a banner right in your face the cant go away about another ESPN app. Stop the banner. Stop it or you going to lose everyone who does/will like you END IT
just installed the latest update and now cannot even open the app. Deleted it reinstalled it still nothing. The app opens for a second as if to load then crashes out. Worked fine before this update. On ipad air. get it right guys
Does what it needs to do but major bug: if youre streaming one channel from the podcasts and you hit back to go to the list of the different channels and pick a new podcast to stream, the application crashes (i.e.switch from Max and Marcellus to mason and Ireland while youre listening to max and Marcellus)
