Fearless with Jason Whitlock

Whitlock examines Sports Illustrated’s underreported headline about the Nike executive who committed murder 56 years ago. Portland sports columnist John Canzano joins the show to help Jason answer the many questions the article left unanswered.  Why is Larry Miller confessing now, but not approaching the family of his victim? Has the former Portland Trail Blazers president and brand manager for Air Jordan been “owned” by the NBA and Nike because of his past? Why are people like NBA Commissioner Adam Silver so forgiving of Miller while Jon Gruden and Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh are asked to leave society completely?  ​​Today's Sponsor:Get with Good Ranchers today and support American farmers!

Jason had some of his hottest takes ever on an amazing “Fearless” week. What did the big man say about Randy Moss’ crying that led to a challenge to fight? Was Jon Gruden forced out of his job as the head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders because of racism or because he broke too many rules within the “Woke 10 Commandments”? Are Kyrie Irving and Dave Chappelle starting a trend of standing up and coming out of the closet as real men? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Whitlock welcomes former NBA player and newly minted YouTube star Kwame Brown for an hourlong discussion on sports, masculinity, and the personal battles of basketball’s 2001 No. 1 overall draft pick. Does Brown agree with Jason that ESPN now stands for Emasculated Sports Personalities Network? Why are their mutual stances against Stephen A. Smith not just about personal beefs? Kwame gives his brutally honest takes on Kyrie Irving, Lil Nas X, LaVar Ball, Dave Chappelle, Boyce Watkins, Stephen Jackson, and Matt Barnes. No one should miss this very special “explosion of masculinity” on “Fearless.” ​​Today's Sponsor:Try the Cattleman or Ranchers Classic bundles from Good Ranchers!

Whitlock blasts Katie Couric and ESPN with both barrels in back-to-back segments. Reacting to Couric’s admission that she covered up late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s negative comments about Colin Kaepernick, the big man explains why it’s indicative of a larger issue in media and society. Former ESPN writer Steve Kim weighs in on Jay Williams’ surprising defense of unvaccinated Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving. Why does Stephen A. Smith’s and Molly Qerim Rose’s reaction show a conspiracy to silence real discussion about COVID? Plus, “Keep It Naked” author Shemeka Michelle destroys Meek Mill and Lizzo in one of her patented epic musical rants. ​​Today's Sponsor:Try the Cattleman or Ranchers Classic bundles from Good Ranchers!

Whitlock describes how society has shoved traditional values — especially masculinity — into a closet. NBA star Kyrie Irving’s stand for medical freedom shows that some men are ready to be brave and come out of that closet. The devastating critique of woke culture by comedian Dave Chappelle and the revolutionary YouTube show of former NBA player Kwame Brown prove that Irving is not alone. “Informed Dissent” host Leonydus Johnson helps Jason break down the news in light of biblical values. “Keep It Naked” author Shemeka Michelle lights the whole discussion on fire with an original rap and an analogy from “Waiting to Exhale.” In Tennessee Harmony, Jason and the pastors discuss true forgiveness in the light of Jon Gruden’s apology. ​​Today's Sponsor:Try a taste of the world’s most remote wines from Bonner Private Wines.

As the fallout from the Jon Gruden emails continues, Jason recounts the reaction to his criticism of Randy Moss. Did the former wide receiver really challenge Whitlock to a fight last night? Why are Gruden’s comments the most egregious sins against the new religion of woke? How did the specter of Obama and Biden quietly overshadow the controversy? Sports writer Steve Kim discusses the real reason Keyshawn Johnson is so vigorously attacking Gruden. Plus, Steve and Jason speculate on whether Tom Brady would ever take a stand as courageous as the one Kyrie Irving is taking. Can Irving become a cultural icon like Muhammad Ali? ​​Today's Sponsor:Try the Cattleman or Ranchers Classic bundles from Good Ranchers! It will provide a great meal for everyone in your family.

Whitlock breaks out his Bible as he rips the ridiculous reaction to the 2011 email by Las Vegas Raiders coach Jon Gruden. Why did Randy Moss’ comments about it on ESPN infuriate Jason? How is Whitlock looking at what happened on the ESPN set as similar to what happened in the Garden of Eden? Keeping it real and humorous at the same time, Jason compares his big lips to DeMaurice Smith’s and Angelina Jolie’s. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

 Jason revisits some of the biggest blazes from the “Fearless” week. Why did he target the Bubba Wallace and Dave Chappelle controversies twice each?

Whitlock fires back at the media narrative against Dave Chappelle. How is the comedian analogous to Founding Father Patrick Henry? “Keep It Naked” author Shemeka Michelle goes on an epic and profane rant against the state of black womanhood, slamming Cardi B, Cori Bush, Stacey Abrams, and others. “Fearless” columnist Delano Squires slams Merrick Garland and the Biden administration for their efforts to criminalize parents fighting the liberal agenda at public schools.

With media pressure to cancel comedian Dave Chappelle, Whitlock stands up for the stand-up legend. Chappelle’s new Netflix special, “The Closer,” roasts the feminist and LGBTQ movements. How are his jokes also a defense of black manhood? Are Chappelle’s Jewish jokes really anti-Semetic? Joining Whitlock in this discussion are sports journalist Steve Kim and “Informed Dissent” host Leonydus Johnson. Does Kim find Chappelle’s Asian jokes funny or offensive? How does Christian podcaster Johnson compare disgraced comedian Bill Cosby to Chappelle?  ​​Today's Sponsor:Get a Family Feast Bundle which includes steak and chicken from Good Ranchers.
