Format
The B.S.

Simmons rarely performs a monologue, but instead holds a conversation with one or more guests for the entire episode.

Most B.S. Report episodes are based on discussions of sports, but occasionally Simmons will have entertainers or pop-culture observers on to talk about entertainment issues of the day, such as Saturday Night Live, reality television, movies and music.
