Over the years, we’ve seen many a legendary media partnership break up after some incredibly successful runs.
Mike & Mike, Bill Simmons and ESPN. The list goes on and on and on. There are plenty to pick and choose from across the massive sports media landscape.
But never did I think I would see the day where Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless were beefing. Never. Those two? Nah, no way.
Alas, the day has arrived.
There’s a bit of a beef brewing between these two and it all stems from their history on their most successful venture together: First Take. Bayless left the show in 2016 for Fox Sports just four years after Smith joined him on the program, but not after making it one of the most successful shows in sports media.

Now? He’s reading podcast transcripts from his “brother” live on his podcast WWE style. It’s that bad.
Let’s dive into what happened.
