Fanatics Sports & Casino and Complex Expand Complex Bets Programming Slate with New Original Shows: In Motion, Worst Take and Sharp Tank

The expanded slate combines Complex's cultural storytelling & Fanatics Sports and Casino data and insights to deliver original programming, interactive fan participation formats, and a dedicated sports trading content vertical

NEW YORK, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Fanatics and Complex today announced the expansion of the original programming lineup for Complex Bets, the culture-driven sports betting and trading content platform launched through the strategic partnership between Complex and Fanatics Sports & Casino.

The newly added series include Complex Bets Presents In Motion, Complex Bets Presents Worst Take and Complex Bets Presents Sharp Tank, alongside a robust slate of social programming. This continued expansion reflects Complex Bets' mission to connect sports, culture, fandom, betting and prediction markets through personality-driven storytelling, expert analysis and interactive fan engagement.

Complex Bets Presents:

In Motion hosted by Ashley Nicole Moss
Complex Bets Presents: In Motion is the flagship longform interview series of the Complex Bets slate, hosted by broadcaster and sports personality Ashley Nicole Moss. Built as a sit-down conversation, In Motion pairs Moss with athletes, artists and cultural figures for wide-ranging interviews that move between sport, style, music and the business of being famous in 2026 — the intersection Complex has owned for over two decades.

Worst Take
Complex Bets Presents: Worst Take is a sports-and-culture debate series built on a simple, dangerous premise: every guest arrives with a take they know will get them in trouble.

Hosted by New York radio personality and sports commentator Keith McPherson, the show puts athletes, artists and personalities in the second seat and asks them to defend the indefensible — the pick nobody agrees with, the player they are irrationally high on, the hill they will die on. Keith opens each episode with a worst take of his own, then plays off the guest across sports, music, fashion and food.

Sharp Tank
Complex Bets Presents: Sharp Tank is a longform sports talk series hosted by Cooper and Carter, a duo whose chemistry does the heavy lifting: fast, funny, genuinely knowledgeable arguments about the games and the numbers behind them. Where most betting content leads with the pick, Sharp Tank leads with the argument — the personalities, the reasoning and the disagreement — which makes it accessible to fans who follow sports for the story rather than the spread.

Complex Bets YouTube and Social Series
Beneath the longform tentpoles, Complex Bets runs an always-on YouTube / Social slate built for the rhythm of the sports week — five distinct series that keep the channel live between marquee episodes: Office Predictions, Team Previews, Fanatics Pick'em, Good Juju Bad Juju, The Method and Bet The Buzz. The slate spans predictions, previews, gameplay and debate, and is deliberately format-varied: some series are built for shorts, others for sit-down runtime, each with its own host and point of view.

Together the slate turns Complex Bets from a set of shows into a channel with a schedule — the difference between appointment content and a destination. Programming ramps through the opening of the NFL and college football seasons, with releases sequenced against the calendar's biggest moments.

Previously Announced Programming
The expanded slate builds on the previously announced Complex On The Scene with Juju Adams. Complex on the Scene is the partnership's highest-volume franchise and its most nimble: a roaming, on-the-ground interview series that puts Complex hosts wherever culture and sport collide. Fronted primarily by Juju Adams, the show has covered WNBA All-Star Weekend, Fanatics Fest, championship celebrations and red carpets, turning quick-hitting conversations with athletes and entertainers into some of the most-viewed content on the Complex Bets channel.

Building the Future of Sports Betting and Trading Media
Complex Bets was launched through a strategic partnership between Complex and Fanatics Sports & Casino to create a new category of sports media built for a generation of fans that increasingly experiences sports through prediction, participation, and real-time conversation.

Built as a standalone Complex platform, Complex Bets combines Complex's signature storytelling with Fanatics Sports & Casino data and insights to create original programming, interactive formats, and fan-driven experiences spanning sports betting, trading, and fandom.

Programming across the platform includes player and team performance storytelling, matchup-driven analysis, milestone highlights, and contextual narratives brought to life through shareable participation formats including prediction challenges, trivia, and interactive experiences designed to deepen fan engagement.

Content spans major professional and collegiate sports, global football competitions, mixed martial arts, championship events, celebrity and crossover fights, and emerging predictive markets tied to sports and culture.
