38:39Now PlayingJoin hosts Michael Barr, Damian Sassower, Scarlet Fu and Vanessa Perdomo for a look at some of the latest headlines and stories in the business of sports.
First, Bloomberg News national reporter Michael Smith examines the fallout from last Sunday's Copa America final in Miami, where gate crashers stormed Hard Rock Stadium in waves at multiple points during the night in an attempt to enter without tickets. The soccer showdown between Argentina and Colombia was meant to be Miami's dress rehearsal for the 2026 World Cup tournament in the US. Then Bloomberg Originals sports correspondent Vanessa Perdomo reports on the WNBA's new $2.2 billion media rights agreement and the New York Liberty's pursuit of the franchise's first championship. She also discusses the news of Disney CEO Bob Iger and his wife, Willow Bay, buying a controlling stake in the Los Angeles women’s soccer team, Angel City Football Club. Angel City competes in the National Women’s Soccer League and the $250 million deal makes it the world’s most valuable women’s sports team. Roku Media President Charlie Collier discusses Roku's recent deal with Major League Baseball to broadcast Sunday MLB games for free on The Roku Channel, as well as the growing market for live sports content among streamers.
