The Sage Steele Show
Jason Whitlock showed up ready to talk about everything, and he did not hold back. We talked about his long and complicated history with Stephen A. Smith, why that friendship changed, and what he believes Stephen has gotten wrong through the years. Jason opened up about the choices he has made in his personal life, including why he never married or had children, and how those decisions shaped the man he is today. And because this is Jason Whitlock, there was plenty of laughter too. I pressed him on his top ten eye candy list, and he broke it all down with the honesty and humor only he can...

I sat down with Dave Ramsey at his headquarters in Nashville for one of the most personal and inspiring conversations I’ve had on this show. Dave opened up about losing everything in his 20s, filing for bankruptcy as a young husband and father, and how that painful chapter became the foundation for the empire he built today. We talked about what it means to be a real leader, how faith guided him through failure, and the difference between being a boss and being a servant leader. He shared what those years taught him about marriage, fatherhood, and humility, and how his faith continues to...

You probably know Justin Danger Nunley from TikTok, where millions of people wait for his signature line: “Listen… did you know?” But behind the viral videos is a story most people have never heard.
info_outlineThis conversation with Roseanne Barr was exactly what I hoped it would be—real, unfiltered, and a little bit wild in the best way.
We talked about her childhood in Salt Lake City, the moment she says God told her she’d have her own show when she was just three, and how that early vision shaped her entire worldview. She opened up about her rise in stand-up comedy, what it really took to get Roseanne on the air, and the battles she fought for creative control.
But she didn’t shy away from the hardest parts: the tweet that blew up her career, the accusations of racism, the fallout from being “canceled,” and how she sees media and politics today. Roseanne is blunt, sometimes controversial, but always raw and honest. She shared how she’s rebuilt her life, why she still believes in pushing boundaries with comedy, and what matters most to her now—her family, her grandkids, and her personal freedom.
If you think you know Roseanne Barr, this conversation might surprise you.
