Aaron Rodgers‘ time on Pat McAfee‘s show is done — for this football season, at least — after the ESPN host announced Wednesday morning that the 4x NFL MVP would NOT be returning to his normal Tuesday morning time slot during the playoffs.
“So, Aaron Rodgers Tuesday, season 4, is done,” McAfee said Wednesday morning, despite the fact Rodgers was reportedly supposed to join the show for several more weeks.
Pat continued … “There will be a lot of people who are happy with that, myself included to be honest with you. The way it ended, it got real loud. I am happy that he’s not going to be in my mentions going forward, which is great news.”

Sources tell TMZ Sports this wasn’t a network decision — we’re told Pat determines which guests appear on the show — but ESPN is on board with the move from what we’re told.
In other words … this was McAfee’s call.

Of course, the Rodgers spot on “The Pat McAfee Show” has become the most can’t-miss segment on the ESPN airwaves, but it’s also brought with it a ton of controversy, especially over the last two weeks when AR seemingly linked Jimmy Kimmel to Jeffrey Epstein.
Rodgers later clarified his comments, saying he wasn’t implying the late-night host was a pedophile.

But, that didn’t stop Kimmel from taking even more jabs at the quarterback Tuesday night.
Perhaps this indicates the war between Aaron and Jimmy is over … as the Jets signal caller won’t have Pat’s massive platform to respond.
Rodgers, who has appeared on Pat’s show for years, is usually a guest through the playoffs … but that won’t be the case this season.
As for whether the Rodgers spot is back for season 5 … there’s been no indication either way.
Stay tuned …

There’s no place in the world quite like L.A. If you’ve spent any time living in this diverse, vibrant city, chances are you have a few stories under your belt that only could have happened here.
Here are two favorites from my own life:
Several years ago my husband and his parents took my 8-year-old son to a magic shop. (My kid was really into magic at the time.) Afterward I called my husband to ask how it went. “David Arquette bought him a magic set,” my husband said. I didn’t think I heard him right.
But when I asked him to repeat himself, it turns out I did. Arquette, who was a regular at the shop, heard the salesperson talking to my kid about magic, and he added a big magic set to his own purchases that he left at the counter for my son.
This next story is even stranger. My first dog’s foster mom asked me to go with her to the Bodhi Tree (an iconic New Age bookstore in West Hollywood that has since closed) to hear a lecture from a chiropractor who claimed he was given healing powers after an encounter with an alien. The chiropractor transmitted his power to my dog’s foster mom and she transmitted it to me so I could provide healing to my aging dog.
Only in L.A.!

Some people may flinch at the genre of reality TV – it’s full of tropes and manipulative editing and ridiculous premises. It’s been referred to as a funhouse mirror of our culture. But it can reflect back to us new ways of understanding what we accept as a society – especially when it comes to things like gender, sexuality, class and race. Today we’re bringing you an episode of NPR’s Code Switch that zeroes in on the The Bachelor and Love Island.
