“Be yourself.” Michelle Beadle has lived by that motto over the course of her trailblazing career, with highlights that include hosting ESPN’s NBA Countdown, SportsNation, and Get Up!, covering the Golden Globes, NFL Kickoff on NBC, and so much more. Currently, she is the host of FanDuel TV’s NBA show called Run It Back, hosts her own podcast Over the Top on Wondery, hosts her own show on SiriusXM’s Mad Dog Sports Channel called Beadle and Decker, and is a special correspondent for the San Antonio Spurs.

Michelle got her start in television as a reporter for the San Antonio Spurs and Fox Sports Net (Big Game Hunters) and soon moved on to TNN, where she worked as a sideline reporter on the network’s coverage of Professional Bull Riding (PBR). Other opportunities early in her career included freelancing as a reporter for ESPN’s Titan Games and CBS Sports on its coverage of the PBR. She then became a reporter and host for the YES Network covering the Yankees and Nets, while also contributing to Emmy Award-winning shows Ultimate Road Trip, SportsLife NYC, and Yankees on Deck.

Michelle was hired in 2007 by People magazine and People.com, for which she hosted the online feature What You Missed over the Weekend. She has been a Red Carpet reporter for the Golden Globes, Grammy Awards, SAG Awards and the Tony Awards, and contributed for People magazine on television, appearing on The Today Show, The Early Show, Extra, Access Hollywood and Entertainment Tonight.

Michelle joined ESPN in 2009 and began a longstanding role as a co-host of the studio show SportsNation. She later worked for NBC as both a host at NBC Sports and a correspondent on Access Hollywood. After returning to ESPN in 2014, Michelle served as a host of ESPN’s morning show Get Up!. She was also the host of NBA Countdown on ABC and ESPN, leading all of the company’s pregame and halftime NBA shows for the NBA Finals, the Conference Finals, NBA Playoffs, and NBA regular season. 

A devoted animal supporter, Michelle also hosted the Animal Planet series Animal Planet Report; co-hosted the Travel Channel’s Beach Week series; hosted the Discovery Channel reality series Get Packing and the network’s one-hour specials Inside Orlando’s Resorts and Outrageous Room Service; and hosted I Want Your Job, an original series on the Fine Living Network.
