With Finebaum in his mid-60s, this actor will be portraying someone in the vein of Finebaum back in his days in Birmingham in the 1980s and 1990s.

In an interview with Scott Fowler of The Charlotte Observer, Finebaum’s new place of residence since becoming the face of ESPN’s SEC Network back in 2014, he talked about several things in his career, as well as how quickly this sitcom based on his life is coming together. It blew peoples’ minds, but it’s progressing. News of this one-of-a-kind sitcom based around this one-of-a-kind radio show first came into the national consciousness back in February.
