Pat McAfee pays Aaron Rodgers millions for his exclusive interviews

http://nypost.com/2023/10/12/pat-mcafee-pays-aaron-rodgers-millions-for-his-exclusive-interviews/

“The Pat McAfee Show” has become the place the sports world turns for some of the most important interviews. McAfee has an engaging personality and, as a former All-Pro punter, a certain cachet that makes it easier for him to connect with the biggest names in sports.

“Aaron Rodgers Tuesdays” and “Nick Saban Thursdays” have become staples of the program and the sports media world. But there is a special sauce that makes it all go: McAfee spends millions to procure these interviews, The Post has learned.

Rodgers is receiving more than seven figures per year to come on the show each week, according to sources, while Saban is in that vaunted neighborhood.

McAfee is media savvy. He cuts into his five-year deal for around $85 million from ESPN to pay people that help the business. He confirmed that Rodgers’ spots are paid for but didn’t get into the exact amount per year.

“Aaron has made over $1,000,000 with us, for sure,” McAfee told The Post over direct message. ...

ribit ... I have a call into Pat McAfee to see if he will hire you for a "Grits with the Frog King Wednesdays."
