During his time with Barstool, McAfee helped develop “Heartland”, which was a division of Barstool in Indianapolis and hosted The Pat McAfee Show. However after two years with Barstool, McAfee would announce he was leaving the popular platform citing a lack of transparency with the business operations of the company as his reason for leaving.
“I was incredibly lucky to be part of that company, and the time I was there, when I was there and how I was there,” said McAfee during this massive announcement video on YouTube.
Conclusion
Since his departure from Barstool, McAfee has turned his show into a massive following on social media. His show has been a success since its inception back in 2019. McAfee would join Westwood One as the host of a new weekday morning sports talk show.
McAfee wanted to chase fulfillment and a dream. Now, he is continuing to create content with his group and now he’s turned himself into a media icon.
I can’t thank you all enough..
