Zakk Wylde is a big mouth and a sports fanatic, so it makes sense that he is co-hosting a weekly sports talk show on SiriusXM. Wylde will spark up a gabfest with sports talk vet Ken Thomson for 'Wylde on Sports.' It will air Tuesdays from 9 to 11PM ET for six weeks on the satellite broadcaster's Fantasy Sports Radio channel.
"I'm excited to join my brother-in-law Ken Thomson every Tuesday night on SiriusXM to recap all of the awesome NFL action, and to find out what in the Wylde world of sports is going on," Wylde said. "We'll be hosting an amazing cast of characters from the worlds of sports, music, movies, television & your local bowling alley as we get WYLDE ON SPORTS! Yay! Go Team!" [Via FMQB]
