According to The Hill, the broadcaster will get his own show, dubbed The Will Cain Show, replacing Cavuto’s coveted 4:00 p.m. timeslot. The Fox & Friends Weekend co-host will debut his eponymous show on January 21, 2025, according to the outlet. Per the network, it will be “a comprehensive look at the news of the day in a signature podcast style.”
As Cain prepares to replace Cavuto, here are five things to know about him.
He Aspired to Play Water Polo According to his Wikipedia page, Cain played a year on the water polo team at Pepperdine University, where he only scored one goal and once praised the team for being so accommodating to his inexperience. He was a walk-on, and his only goal was scored back in 1996.
“Pepperdine water polo was extremely accommodating in its development of a walk-on such as me, and that’s something positively unique about this program,” he said, per Pepperdine Waves. “I almost went to USC, and I’m sure that if I did have a water polo career there it would have been much shorter.”
