Jake Marsh Leaving Barstool Sports to Pursue Play-by-Play Opportunities (2024)
After five years with Barstool Sports, Jake Marsh announced that today was his last episode on Pardon My Take. Marsh said that now is the right time to pursue his dream of being a national network play-by-play broadcaster.
“I’m here to make an announcement,” Marsh said to Dan ‘Big Cat’ Katz and PFT Commenter. “It’s an announcement that was inevitable at some point. After talking with you guys, now makes the most sense. The fact of the matter is this is going to be my last episode on Pardon My Take.”

Big Cat and PFT Commenter said this is something they have been talking about for four or five months, not something Marsh just decided on a whim. “We love having you on the show Jake, you’re a big part of the Pardon My Take story,” PFT Commenter said. “We are very glad you are a part of the story. Me and Big Cat have always said, one day you’re going to go try to do live broadcasts and we are going to wish you the best and we are going to be firmly in your corner. And that is very, very true to this day. I wish you the best career possible. I hope one day you are calling a Super Bowl that we are watching and losing bets on…and then blaming you for losing the bets.”
Marsh explained the reasoning behind his departure. “One of the biggest dominos for this happening right now is the direction Barstool is going in, live broadcasting rights are no longer a priority for this company,” he said. “…And obviously that was my bread and butter here. That’s where I thrive the most. I am so fortunate I got to call multiple bowl games on national television, college basketball, hockey, professional golf.”
Marsh, hired as an intern five years ago, added, “I never thought any of that was remotely possible.”

Marsh said when he started, somebody at Barstool asked him where he sees himself in five to ten years. “Without hesitation I said, ‘I want to be a national network play-by-play broadcaster.’ That brings us to now and that is what I am going all in on.”
Marsh said he is proud of what he has accomplished in his five years with the company. “I have accomplished a lot, thanks to you guys.”
Marsh posted a message to the Barstool community on the website and said, “I’m looking for someone to give me a chance in this business in the booth, just like Pardon My Take gave me a shot five years ago. And I know the first step to making that happen is showing my full availability and flexibility to call games.”

Billy Football is no longer on the show and did not move to Chicago with the rest of the crew. Jake also left the show in 2024 to pursue a career in sports broadcasting.
My name is Jake Marsh and I am a play-by-play broadcaster with experience in many sports on various national outlets. For the past five years, I have also been a member of the country's No. 1 sports podcast, "Pardon My Take."
PFT Commenter moved to Barstool Sports in March 2016 and started the podcast Pardon My Take along with co-host Dan Katz. The podcast, which is often satirical in nature, has grown to a top ranking on iTunes' "Sports and Recreation" list.

“American Dragon: Jake Long” stopped airing because it simply did not fit the criteria that Cartoon Network was looking for anymore. The producers also changed the animation of the series in the second series. Prior to the change, the series received five Annie Awards, the 'Oscars” of animation, nominations.
Jake Gyllenhaal and Jeanne Cadieu's joint appearances
The pair made their red carpet debut in 2021, posing together at the premiere of The Lost Daughter, directed by Gyllenhaal's sister Maggie. They stepped out again for the 2022 premiere of Ambulance and walked the Cannes red carpet together that year.
After his birth, Jake was raised normally by Joshua and Margaret as their son, alongside their own biological son Jermaine and their adoptive human son Finn.
Moniker DeLuise is an opponent and ex-girlfriend of Jake. She makes her first appearance in "Daddy-Daughter Card Wars", and is apparently very skilled at Card Wars, being a reigning champion with her partner Grand Prix.
Jake is generally laid-back and tends not to worry about things. He relies heavily on his powers (or Finn) to get him out of any dangerous predicament. While he often cracks jokes at serious times, Jake always has a lecture or a song to cheer Finn up if he is feeling disheartened.
During Wednesday's episode of PMT, he went in-depth on his decision to avoid any speculation. “One of the dominoes for this happening right now is the direction that Barstool's going in,” Marsh said. “Live broadcasting rights are no longer a priority for this company. And that's not a secret.
Jake is 28 in magical dog years, though he rarely acts mature. In human years he is roughly the same age as Finn. Both he and his girlfriend, Lady Rainicorn, share a passion for playing the viola.
The first series in the franchise, Adventure Time revolves around the adventures of protagonists Finn the Human (voiced by Jeremy Shada), a teenage human boy, and his best friend Jake the Dog (voiced by John DiMaggio), a dog with magical powers to change shape and grow and shrink at will.
The Adventure Time: Distant Lands special "Together Again" takes place sometime after the end of the series, after Jake has died. Finn, who has recently died, journeys through the Dead Worlds to be reunited with Jake, who died many years before him.
He is the lead Washington anchor for CNN, hosts the weekday television news show The Lead with Jake Tapper, and co-hosts the Sunday morning public affairs program State of the Union.
In the season ten finale, Jake is stationed in Japan for the next year, so he spends a weekend with his dad before leaving. He does not appear in Season 11, but is mentioned several times.
