Ep 902 | WNBA Hates Caitlin Clark | The Stephen A. Smith Investigation Part 956

Well, well, well, the WNBA season is on the horizon, and the Cait hate has already begun. Jason reacts to ESPN analyst and on-air host Monica McNutt boldly proclaiming that the only reason young girls gravitate toward Caitlin Clark is because she’s white. Yes, you heard that correctly. Winston-Salem State, the alleged alma mater of arguably the crookedest shooter of all time, posts a video of the school's 1991 basketball team. Sitting in the front row is none other than a person who appears to b...

Ep 901 | Michael Wilbon TRASHES Stephen A. Smith | NCAA Final Four Is a BORE

It looks like Whitlock isn’t the only one who has had enough of the Stephen A.-LeBron feud that has gone on far too long. OutKick’s Bobby Burack interviews ESPN sportswriter and host of "Pardon the Interruption" Michael Wilbon, who opens up about the state of the sports media world. Not only does Wilbon think this feud is a joke, but he also believes both LeBron and Stephen A. are acting like unprofessional children. Additionally, he delivers a massive critique of how newsrooms operate at a frac...

Ep 900 | LeBron James & Stephen A. Smith Stage ‘Brawl for It All’ in Political Wrestling Match

What started as a mild confrontation has now exploded into the biggest sports media story in the country. On today’s episode of "Fearless," Jason — later joined by Steve Kim — dives into the almost reality-TV-like drama unfolding between LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith. Lines are being drawn, and sports pundits are picking sides. Even Kendrick Perkins found himself blocked on social media by LeBron for siding with Stephen A. But here’s the real question: Does anyone actually care? At the end o...

Ep 899 | LeBron James' UNHINGED Interview with Pat McAfee | The Conservative Civil War

On today’s Fearless , Jason pulls back the curtain on how out of touch LeBron James really is. This past week, LeBron appeared on The Pat McAfee Show , where he discussed his ongoing beef with the NBA media and shared his thoughts on the future of the league. Jason breaks down how LeBron didn’t quite fit the vibe of McAfee’s show. McAfee thrives in the world of casual, frat-boy humor and freewheeling energy, but LeBron’s discomfort was clear. The self-proclaimed ‘King of basketball’ struggled to...

Ep 898 | NCAA LIES About March Madness Ratings?? | Russell Wilson Signs with Giants

Legacy sports media wants us to believe that while basketball struggles globally, this is somehow the most-watched March Madness in history? Miss me with all that. On today’s "Fearless," Jason is joined by Steve Kim and T.J. Moe to break down the NCAA TV ratings and debate whether the NIL era is actually good for college basketball. Colin Cowherd and Jay Bilas claim the sport is thriving — are they right or just spinning a narrative? Meanwhile in the NBA, Nick Wright stirs the pot with rumors th...

Ep 897 | Megyn Kelly Props Up MAGA’s Pet Clown Stephen A. Smith | Resurgence of Faith in Athletes

Every day, Stephen A. Smith’s presidential ambitions seem to grow bolder. But the real shocker? Conservative podcast host Megyn Kelly just welcomed the Stephen A. Myth onto her show. Why is the conservative media giving this man a platform? It should be obvious — he has no real insight, and even his own ESPN colleagues dismiss him as a clown, as revealed in a leaked audio clip from an ESPN producer. And yet, Kelly continues to praise the so-called straight shooter. Has the MAGA movement been com...

Ep 896 | The Cinderella Story Is DEAD at March Madness Tournament | The Memory of George Foreman

Does the slipper still fit? What happened to the Cinderella story? On this Monday episode of "Fearless," Jason asks the question — where is this year’s feel-good story? March Madness has always been about the unexpected underdog, the Cinderella team that captures the nation’s heart. But this year? The magic seems to be missing. Could the NIL era be to blame for the tournament’s increasing predictability? It’s not just the action on the court that feels off; March Madness commercials are drowning...

Ep 895 | Big U Indictment, Big Problem for Shaq, Draymond Green & LeBron

Notorious mafia gangster boss Big U has officially turned himself in, and his surrender could spell major problems for high-profile athletes entangled in the gang lifestyle. Accused of multiple gang-related crimes and the extortion of celebrities, including athletes and actors, Big U’s downfall is set to send shockwaves through the sports and entertainment industries. In this special episode of Fearless , Jason Whitlock recounts his personal experiences with these so-called “mafia” gang leaders....

Ep 894 | Mina Kimes DRAGS Jackie Robinson Into Bizarre DEI Take | Michelle Obama's New 'Hood' Hairdo

Our country is finally moving in a better direction. Men are no longer allowed to compete in women’s sports, illegal aliens aren’t being escorted across our borders, and truth isn’t being censored. However, despite all this progress, ESPN still insists on pushing DEI. Jason and Steve Kim react to Mina Kimes’ attempt to revive the DEI “woke mind virus” after it was revealed that the Department of Defense briefly removed a Jackie Robinson info page from its website. Although the page was quickly r...

Ep 893 | Jeremy Boreing CRASHES OUT as Daily Wire Co-CEO | Whitlock EXPOSES Black Sacred Narratives

In today's episode of "Fearless," Jeremy Boreing steps down as co-CEO of the Daily Wire but will remain a consultant, a move that likely is due to Boreing's mishandling of personalities like Brett Cooper, Candace Owens, and Steven Crowder, as well as his use of leftist tactics and attempts to smear critics. Whitlock suggests that Boreing's push for a movement to free Derek Chauvin, which failed and drew backlash, along with feuds with prominent conservative figures, contributed to the Daily Wire...

Ep 892 | Angel Reese Underwhelmingly WINS DPOY | Dawn Staley WHINES About March Madness Seeding

The Unrivaled 3-vs.-3 women’s basketball league has officially wrapped up, and Angel Reese and her team have taken home the trophy. Reese was also awarded Defensive Player of the Year for her efforts in the league’s debut season. Jason and Steve Kim discuss Reese’s massive ego, especially after she took to X, posting, “What y’all gonna say now?” Spoiler alert, Angel — people are still going to say you can’t finish a layup. She’s not the only one making eyeroll-worthy comments. University of Sout...

Ep 891 | UNC Weasels into March Madness Tournament | Bill Belichick: Simp or Pimp?

The brackets are set, March is here, and it’s time for the madness! The NCAA tournament hasn’t even begun, yet the drama has already started. Despite a lackluster season, the UNC Tar Heels have somehow snuck into the tournament, taking the place of more deserving schools. To make matters even worse, the chairman of the Selection Committee also happens to be UNC’s athletic director, Bubba Cunningham. Is there foul play afoot? Jason, later joined by Steve Kim, breaks down the possible corruption b...

Ep 890 | ‘Woke Lite' CANCELS Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, and Candace Owens

We live in the era of misinformation. As a country, we have a bad habit of only listening to what we want to hear and accepting it as fact. In a recent "Joe Rogan Experience" interview, Rogan elaborated on how certain narratives on X/Twitter and in the mainstream media aren’t organic. Instead, they are part of a larger agenda, fueled by a widespread effort to shift the culture in a specific direction. On today’s episode of "Fearless," Jason applies this method of thinking to a few popular media ...

Ep 889 | Ryan Clark PULLS Race Card to Defend Shedeur Sanders | Anthony Mackie is ‘Captain Woke’

Ryan Clark has returned to race baiting. Yesterday, he defended Shedeur Sanders, saying that anybody that criticizes him is racist. Teams have questions about his attitude, the same way they did with Johnny Manziel. It has nothing to do with skin color. Anthony Mackie, best know for his roles as The Falcon and then Captain America in the Marvel Universe, said that success is given, not earned. It’s baffling that athletes agree with him as he says this. Sports are the ultimate meritocracy. Hollyw...

Ep 888 | Stephen A. Smith LAUNCHES Ghetto & Profane Attack on LeBron James

The Stephen A. Smith and LeBron altercation that took place at the Knicks-Lakers game is starting to get out of hand. LeBron allegedly reprimanded Stephen A., telling him to stop “f**k**g” with his son on national television. Stephen A., however, went on "Gil’s Arena," the podcast of former NBA All-Star Gilbert Arenas, and completely blasted LeBron for approaching him the way he did. Despite dubbing himself the "straight shooter," Stephen A., who also is the face of ESPN , is cussing up a storm ...

Ep 887 | Ryan Clark CALLS OUT LeBron James? | Cooper Flagg Staying at Duke?

Welcome to another special edition of "Fearless," home studio edition. Jason and Steve Kim react to a plethora of news stories. Whoopi Goldberg tells trans icon Dylan Mulvaney that she doesn’t understand why there needs to be a separation between men and women in sports. She clearly wasn’t an athlete growing up, except maybe at the victim Olympics. March is here, and the madness is brewing. Duke rookie sensation Cooper Flag is shockingly projected to stay in college rather than be the consensus ...

Ep 886 | LeBron James ‘Flops’ in Celtics-Lakers Showdown | Myles Garrett SWINDLES the Cleveland Browns

LeBron James is a desperate man. While his horrendous flop should have won an Academy Award, it further reveals just how desperately James needs to win. Jason traces it all back to Skip Bayless, who pitted LeBron and Jordan against one another. For us to enjoy Tiger Woods, he didn’t have to surpass Jack Nicklaus. Mike Tyson didn’t have to surpass Muhammad Ali. Barry Sanders didn’t have to win NFL titles to be appreciated as much as Jim Brown. Skip defined success for LeBron, and LeBron took the ...

Ep 885 | Charles Barkley Goes to WAR with ESPN | LeBron James CONFRONTS Stephen A. Smith

The NBA is cannibalizing itself! Selfish greed has consumed the hearts of many, creating a chain reaction that has turned the league into the laughingstock of the professional sports world. On today’s special episode of "Fearless," Jason takes a deep dive into the fall of the NBA. Jordan loyalists like Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith have built multimillion-dollar media careers criticizing LeBron James — yet LeBron is supposed to take the fall for the NBA’s decline in relevance? At the same ti...

The NFL off-season is in full swing, and "Fearless" has a front-row seat. Las Vegas star edge rusher Maxx Crosby becomes the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history. Veteran defensive end Joey Bosa is released after a long tenure with the Los Angeles Chargers. Star wide receiver DK Metcalf has requested a trade from the Seattle Seahawks. Jason and Steve Kim point out that the frequency of top NFL talent requesting trades has increased over the past decade. It looks like the NFL may be drinki...

Ep 883 | Why Conservatives Defend Andrew Tate

Andrew Tate recently appeared on Patrick Bet-David's podcast and said some things that really hit home for a lot of people. Jason Whitlock thinks Tate's message is super important to fight back against the "info war" happening in America right now. Whitlock believes that Tate became popular as a voice for masculinity because "weak male Christians" haven't been upholding traditional values. Even though Whitlock might not agree with everything Tate says, he thinks Tate's message is needed to bring...

Is LeBron James Frankenstein or the monster? On a special episode of "Fearless," Jason takes a deep dive into identifying the root of the NBA’s issues. When did the league start to decline? What is the reason for its downfall? In a recent postgame interview, LeBron James critiqued the media for being so critical that young and upcoming stars shy away from becoming the face of the NBA, fearing relentless scrutiny. While sports pundits across America had a meltdown over his comments, many new medi...

Ep 881 | Adult Film WINS Oscar Best Picture | Andrew Tate Is the WRONG Leader for Conservatives

If an adult film cleaning up at the Oscars with five Academy Awards isn’t evidence of our debauched, fallen culture, nothing is. Jason reacts to the 2025 Oscars Best Picture winner, "Anora," with its dark storytelling and heavy porn tropes. Can’t blame the Oscars for promoting this degenerate mindset when the red-pill community champions Andrew Tate. Suppose Andrew Tate is on camera bragging about pimping out and sexually exploiting women while simultaneously being viewed as a role model for nuc...

Now allowed to leave Romania, Andrew Tate arrives back in the U.S. after a long hiatus. Joining today’s show is conspiracy theorist influencer Common Sense Skeptic, who discusses the Andrew Tate angle with Jason. With Tate’s human trafficking court case still ongoing, should President Donald Trump get involved? Delano Squires also weighs in on the Tate topic, putting a cherry on top of the discussion.

If you thought Deflategate was the last of Tom Brady’s antics, think again. As star Rams quarterback Matt Stafford nears the final year of his lucrative contract, his agent and the Rams organization have agreed to let him explore his options and gauge his free-agent market. However, does this agreement include Stafford visiting the home of Las Vegas Raiders minority owner Tom Brady?

Ep 878 | Luka Doncic Gets REVENGE vs. Mavs | Zaya Wade & Stephen A. Smith Are ‘PAWN Stars’

A month after the Luka Dončić trade, the Dallas Mavericks traveled to Los Angeles to face off against the Lakers. Jason and Steve Kim point out that despite the Lakers’ 107-99 victory, the Mavericks showed signs of dominance — even with Anthony Davis still recovering from injury. During the game, many Lakers fans started a “Thank you, Nico” chant, referring to the Dallas Mavericks' general manager, who is widely blamed for greenlighting the Doncic trade. But should he really take the fall? In ot...

Ep 877 | LeBron James' Legacy Overshadowed by Kobe Bryant | Shedeur Sanders DECLINES NFL Combine

Who is the GOAT of basketball? One of the evergreen sports debates that will rage on into eternity. However, with the tragic death of the Black Mamba himself, Kobe Bryant's legacy seems to be overshadowing LeBron James'. Jason, joined by basketball analytics YouTuber Skap Attack, discusses whether Kobe Bryant was a better basketball player than LeBron. What is valued more: MVPs, championships, or team success? Are there any blemishes on their careers? In other news, the NFL draft is almost a mon...

Karma strikes again! After doubling down on the woke agenda and years of spewing the most idiotic and racially divisive rhetoric across all of legacy media, MSNBC has FINALLY decided to pull the plug on the not-so-popular "The ReidOut," hosted by Joy Reid. Jason jokingly wonders how MSNBC will ever recover from axing the media’s best Donald Trump weave. Looking ahead to 2028, as predicted, Stephen A. Smith now has the fourth-best odds to win the Democratic presidential nomination, according to K...

Lamar Jackson has a new hairstyle, gets a full perm, and straightens his hair. The feminine side of athletes is coming out more and more these days. Is this a sign of matriarchal culture or just more in line with men caring more about their appearance? Cynthia Erivo has gotten the green light to play Jesus in "Jesus Christ Superstar" at the Hollywood Bowl. Another woke decision to put a gay person into a role that person shouldn’t be in.
