ESPN raised eyebrows recently when it decided to partner with Barstool Sports on a late-night program called “Barstool Van Talk.”

Hosted by PFT Commenter and Barstool Big Cat, the show has already been canceled in a surprising move announced by ESPN on Monday.

According to a statement from ESPN president John Skipper, the decision to cancel the show after only one episode was due to the fact that the network couldn’t distance itself from the actual Barstool brand and its content:

Barstool responded with a statement of its own:

What happens next for PFT Commenter and Big Cat remains to be seen, but they’ll no longer host the ESPN show.

Many ESPN employees, including Sam Ponder, had major concerns about partnering with Barstool, and voiced those concerns on social media.

It appears those concerns were heard, as the show has been canceled after only one episode, which aired last week.
