Welcome to the inaugural The Bridge Christmas Spectacular and Year in Review 2016! With Christmas Day and the end of the year quickly approaching, we decided to go out with a bang and introduce some new holiday segments while taking a look back at some segments from the past year.
Before we get into that and the rest of Episode 49, as a reminder, The Bridge is now broadcast as a one hour radio show every Wednesday night on Sports Radio America, starting at 7 ET. Once the dust settles from that live broadcast, the show is released as a podcast on iTunes and this website on Friday night. You can listen to the live show every Wednesday on Sports Radio America here or through the TuneIn app.
Editor’s note: The Bridge will be radio silent for the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s Day and will return to Sports Radio America at 7 ET on Wednesday, Jan. 4. Because of that, let me beat Chris Berman to be the FIRST to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. If you miss us that much, catch up with The Bridge on iTunes.
