ESPN Radio College Gameday is a day-long talk radio show on ESPN Radio covering the day's college football games. It is heard every Saturday during the season from noon until 7 p.m. ET. Some programs originate from the ESPN studios in Bristol, Connecticut; others are on location from game sites, just like College GameDay on television. The show, which began in 2000, is hosted by Ryen Russillo and analysts Brad Edwards, and Trevor Matich, former NFL player. The show is produced by Steve Coughlin. Students and fans are welcomed and encouraged to stop by and watch the games on several high-definition monitors, and possibly take home a T-shirt or mini-football which are be distributed to the crowd.
Beginning in 2006, this show offered a new segment, in which a fan conducts inspections of tailgate sites near the broadcast location. This segment airs only when the show is on the road.

“England has the most sordid literary scene I’ve ever seen. They all meet in the same pub. This guy’s writing a foreword for this person. They all have to give radio programs, they have to do all this just in order to scrape by. They’re all scratching each other’s backs.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)

—For the State of West Virginia, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“The day of the absolute is over, and we’re in for the strange gods once more.”
