1. Showcasing Incredible Female Talent
The show will feature many voices from ESPN’s deep bench of female on-air personalities, including Andraya Carter, Elle Duncan, Monica McNutt, Chiney Ogwumike and Hannah Storm. It’s a testament to the incredible female talent pool of ESPN’s studio programming.
2. The Format Breaks From Traditional Sports Studio Shows
Vibe Check promises “fast-paced coverage with expert analysis, all-access moments, unapologetic opinions and a healthy dose of laughter.” New episodes drop three times weekly (Monday, Wednesday, Friday at 5 p.m. ET), targeting audiences looking for fresh perspectives and authentic sports conversation rather than traditional highlight packages.
3. Disney+ Is Becoming ESPN’s Premium Content Hub
This marks ESPN’s second Disney+ exclusive after SC+ launched in March, signaling a strategic shift toward creating premium content for Disney’s streaming platform. Disney+ subscribers get access to curated ESPN+ and live sports content, while bundle subscribers can access the full ESPN+ library of 30,000+ annual live events.
