Mike Francesa scolds his staff before realizing he was on air: Going to go viral now

It seems Mike Francesa didn’t realize they were doing this one live. During a live episode of his BetRivers podcast, Francesa chided his staff for talking in his ear and providing him with the wrong information regarding St.John’s and the Big East championship. The famed former radio host spent several minutes going back and forth with his staff before calling on them to restart the recording.
