We are ready for the mayhem and the madness, as the 2025 NCAA Basketball Tournament gets underway in full on Thursday and Friday and a special guest joins host T.J. Rives to talk about it on this edition of the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast!"

Tim Brando of Fox Sports, but formerly CBS and ESPN is aboard and has tons fo stories about his involvement with calling the tourney on CBS and the colleagues he's worked with like Billy Packer and the late Greg Gumbel. Lots of stories and insight from Timmy B!

Plus, we have more on the ratings from this past weekend of the conference tourney title games Saturday and Sunday and the CBS Selection Show reveal, as well.

And, T.J. says a few words about the late, award winning writer of the Washington Post sports section and tremendous author of many sports books, John Feinstein, who died unexpectedly last week.
