Versus’ The Daily Line, the only daily sports show out of New York, has seen some fun guests. We kicked off the show with Cheech Marin, Chuck Liddel, Ice Cube, Dana White, and Darryl Strawberry have all stopped by the studio. Also, Mike Tyson had an intimate interview with one of the hosts, comedian Reese Waters, as they sipped tea at the Ritz Carlton.
We are having fun working with the hilarious Comedy Central show Tosh.0, about to resume its second season on Wednesday, June 2 at 10:30pm ET/PT. Tosh.0 features the razor sharp humor from comedian Daniel Tosh and delves into all aspects of the Internet from the absolutely absurd to the incredible ingenious in this weekly, topical series. The second season of “Tosh.0” is averaging 1.8 million total viewers and is the most watched show in its timeslot among men 18-24 and men 18-34. We are working with Tosh.0 on their special “Web Redemption” videos, which gives subjects of infamous viral videos a second chance to redeem themselves from the embarrassment with which they’ve become synonymous. Be sure to check out the video below called “Crystal Light Dancers” featuring Alan Thicke, and watch the premiere of the second half of the second season on June 2!
