Bill Simmons will start the next chapter of his career at HBO with a multi-platform deal that will see him present a talk show as well as produce video podcasts and features.
“We have been fans of Bill Simmons and his work for a very long time,” said Michael Lombardo, HBO’s president of programming.“His intelligence, talent and insights are without precedent in the areas he covers. We could not be more thrilled for him to bring those talents to HBO and to become a signature voice at the network, spanning the sports and pop culture landscapes.”
