Peter Schrager denies Bill Simmons podcast ban

Peter Schrager has a new ESPN show to promote, but he has no plans to do so on "The Bill Simmons Podcast." Schrager's recent absence from The Ringer's tentpole show has been a topic of conversation online, as well as on Simmons' podcast.

Earlier this month, while Schrager was promoting "Big Day with Peter Schrager," he appeared on "Pardon My Take," prompting Simmons to say Schrager was banned from his show. During an interview on Jimmy Traina's "Traina Thoughts Podcast," the host asked Schrager about it. Schrager denied it, insisting that he and Simmons talk regularly. Though his main message was that he didn't want to be aggregated.
