Friday’s Hot Clicks: Colin Cowherd’s First Earthquake Struck When He Was Live on TV

Colin Cowherd hoped to have breaking news to discuss on his radio show yesterday, and he did. Except it wasn’t about where Kawhi Leonard will play next season. It was the ground literally shaking beneath his feet.

The strongest earthquake to hit Southern California in 20 years struck at 10:33 a.m. Thursday, while Cowherd was live on Fox Sports for “The Herd.”

“We’re having an earthquake in Los Angeles,” Cowherd said, remarkably calmly. “I’ve never been in an earthquake, certainly not on the air.”

It’s a little incredible that Cowherd hadn’t experienced an earthquake before, considering he grew up near Seattle and has spent the majority of his career on the West Coast.
