Overview

  • Wake Up Barstool will air live on FS1 weekdays from 8–10 a.m. ET with an encore from 10 a.m.–noon, beginning Tuesday, Sept. 2.
  • Dave Portnoy is slated for Mondays, Dan “Big Cat” Katz for Tuesdays, and Eric “PFT Commenter” Sollenberger for Thursdays, with T-Bob Hebert, Brandon Walker and Jason Williams rotating through the week.
  • The program becomes FS1’s morning block following the network’s July cancellations, with the daytime slate now anchored by Wake Up Barstool, The Herd (noon–3 p.m. ET) and an expanded First Things First (3–6 p.m. ET).
  • The show launches as part of a broader Fox–Barstool deal that includes streaming Barstool’s college football pregame on select Fox digital channels and featuring Fox talent in Barstool content.
  • Separate reporting notes Portnoy’s planned Big Noon Kickoff appearance may occur outside the stadium due to reported access restrictions tied to this week’s Ohio State game.
