Ashley Nicole Moss and Cam Newton just flipped the switch on traditional sports shows. Together, they’ve launched 106 & Sports on BET, a brand-new series blending sports, music, fashion and culture. It’s bold, high-energy, and nothing like what’s already on your screen.
Inspired by the iconic 106 & Park, this new show doesn’t just talk about who won the game. It looks at how sports shape the world we live in, from what people wear to what plays on your playlist.
A New Kind of Sports Show
106 & Sports does not fit into the usual sports media box. It goes beyond game stats and locker room interviews. The show was built for fans who want more than highlight reels — they want conversations that connect sports to culture, style, music, and everything happening off the court or field.
Cam Newton has always had a big personality, and now he’s using it in a new way. The former NFL MVP is stepping into media full-time, showing that he’s just as comfortable with a mic as he was with a football. Ashley Nicole Moss brings years of broadcasting experience and a smart, grounded voice that balances out the energy perfectly.
Real Chemistry, Real Conversations
When Moss and Newton first did a virtual screen test together, their chemistry was instant. You could feel it. They aren’t just co-hosts reading a script — they’re two people who genuinely click. That makes the show feel like you’re watching a real conversation, not a rehearsed segment.
Newton brings the insider view from his time as a pro athlete. Moss brings journalistic skills and cultural awareness. Together, they make a team that feels sharp, current, and completely in sync with today’s sports fans.
Live Audience, Live Energy
What really takes 106 & Sports to the next level is the live studio audience. The energy in the room is a game-changer. Reactions happen in real time, and that adds spontaneity that pre-recorded shows can’t match.
It also breaks the wall between hosts and viewers. People at home feel like they’re part of the conversation. That sense of community is a big deal, especially for younger audiences who want to engage, not just watch.
From Field to Studio, and Behind the Scenes
Cam Newton had to adapt. Going from athlete to media personality is not just a career shift — it’s a whole different kind of spotlight. But he embraced it, and now he’s stepping up as more than just a football legend.
Moss also had a lot to manage. She balanced her existing media roles while building this new show from the ground up. It’s a major career move, and her ability to handle it all shows why she’s one of the fastest rising voices in sports media.
BET’s First Sports Countdown Show
106 & Sports is making history as BET’s first-ever sports countdown show. But more than that, it’s proving that sports fans don’t want their content stuck in one lane. People who love the game also love culture, and this show gets that.
It’s not about just watching plays — it’s about understanding what they mean in the bigger picture.
