Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar has nothing on sports media’s biggest feud. The Washington Post released an expose on Stephen A. Smith — of course, it was devoid of any real journalism or search for objective truths. Jason calls out Smith and the Washington Post’s sham, revealing how Stephen A. and those who have installed him are taking a page out of the Richard Nixon handbook on how to become president of the United States.

Jason and Jay Skapinac debate that topic and discuss LeBron adding to his body count as the Lakers fire head coach Darvin Ham.

NBA star Patrick Beverley didn’t handle getting bounced from the playoffs very well. In the closing moments of Indiana’s win over Milwaukee, the Bucks stars threw a basketball at a fan who he claims had been heckling him but hit a female fan instead. After getting the ball back, Beverley doubled down and threw the ball at the intended fan again. Postgame, he refused to answer questions from an ESPN reporter because she didn’t subsc...

The battle between the Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens has escalated into a full-blown war, and free speech is its first casualty. A new report by journalist Glenn Greenwald says that despite the back-and-forth volley on social media of a potential Israel-Palestine debate between Shapiro and the former Daily Wire host, Jeremy Boreing and the power brokers behind the conservative media behemoth were working to slap a gag ...

Weeks of protest and chaos on college campuses finally reached a boiling point, erupting in violence at UCLA and police action at Columbia, and Jason says that’s a good thing. The pro-Palestinian, anti-American sentiment being cultivated at universities is the poisonous fruit of the elite’s globalist agenda. Will the violence finally be the inflection point that ushers back in an America-first agenda? We can only hope so unless you...

According to conventional wisdom, bad marriages spiral into divorce around year seven. It’s called the “seven-year itch.” LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers just concluded the sixth year of their shotgun marriage, losing to the Denver Nuggets in five games in the first round of the playoffs. After the game, James refused to answer the question about his future in Hollywood. It didn’t take long after his nonanswer for reports t...

The NBA has its Caitlin Clark. His name is Anthony Edwards, but unlike Clark, most of you have likely never heard of him. Edwards is on the cusp of being the next big thing in basketball. His 40-point performance that eliminated his childhood hero Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns could be the game that put him on the map. Jason argues that if the NBA would take his advice, Anthony Edwards would already be the star of the NBA. “Cas...

If Amanda Seales thought she would join Shannon Sharpe on “Club Shay Shay” to rehab her reputation, she thought wrong. The former child actress turned stand-up comedian came across as crazy as her critics say. From her unprovoked attack on Candace Owens to claiming that autism is “racist,” Seales did nothing to change her image in the eyes of the public. On the other hand, Shannon Sharpe continues to impress Whitlock with his media...

Why would the Atlanta Falcons take a rookie QB with the eighth overall pick in the NFL Draft after backing up a Brinks truck for veteran Kirk Cousins in the off-season? That's the question most Falcons fans had after the team picked Washington signal caller Michael Penix Jr. on opening night. Jason believes he has the right answer to that question, and it has nothing to do with Cousins' ability or health status after an Achilles in...

Of course, the NFL Draft will rake in huge television ratings, but this year’s draft just doesn’t have the same star power to outshine the WNBA’s Caitlin Clark experience. Tomorrow’s sports headlines are just as likely to revolve around what color nail polish Williams was wearing than anything else. NFL pundits and analysts have tried to sell fans that this year’s quarterback class is on par with 1983’s Dan Marino, Jim Kelly, and J...

How did we get to the point where students are besieging college campuses to chant “Death to America”? That’s the question Jason looks to answer in this edition of “Fearless.” Ivy League institutions like Columbia and Yale have been invaded by pro-Palestinian protesters demanding that the universities divest all support for Israel. Whitlock explores how our country has produced a lost generation of frustrated, enraged, and out-of-c...

Katt Williams proclaimed that 2024 was the year of truth, and so far, it looks like he’s right. When Tucker Carlson sat down with Joe Rogan, you knew the conversation was going to make headlines, and it did. Of course, the mainstream media went out of its way to paint Carlson as unhinged and a conspiracy nut. Jason cuts through the spin and puffery to get to the heart of Tucker’s message. America is in a spiritual battle. We are wi...

Black folks, you better not step out of line or “Correctional Officer” Stephen Jackson will put you in your place. The former NBA star and gang advocate took “CBS Mornings” host Gayle King to task over mentioning how people were rooting for Caitlin Clark during her interview with South Carolina women’s basketball coach Dawn Staley. When Jason pointed out Jackson’s racial idolatry and prison mindset, the “All the Smoke” host donned ...

Winston Churchill once said, “Never engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man.” In the wake of Jason’s response to Patrick Bet-David’s attempt to convert former ESPN personality Sage Steele to team Trash-Whitlock, PBD’s media brand, Valuetainment, sends Adam Sosnick to perform a “eulogy” for Jason’s career. Jason, unimpressed by Sosnick's embarrassing attempt at a takedown, is reluctant to even react to this PBD minion’s low l...

Jason has a cautionary tale for Caitlin Clark. Clark is the most exciting thing to happen to basketball since LeBron James. Believe it or not, Whitlock was once a LeBron supporter — before fame and idolatry stole his soul. Jason discusses the warning signs from Clark’s introductory press conference and shares his advice on the pitfalls to avoid becoming the next LeBron for all the wrong reasons. Maybe no one in the history of sport...

The No. 1 movie at the box office, “Civil War,” is a thinly veiled fantasy about assassinating Donald Trump. The film, written and directed by Alex Garland, isn’t nearly as complicated, subtle, or apolitical as critics at the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Variety magazine, and the New Yorker suggest. The point of Garland’s movie is simple: Killing Trump is the most efficient and sensible way to end America’s political chaos. T...

On the heels of a record-setting March Madness for women’s basketball, the WNBA had its “One Shining Moment” on draft night. The red carpet for the league’s biggest night looked more like a New York fashion show than a WNBA locker room, and Jason says there’s one woman to thank for it. Angel Reese. With her makeup, eyelashes, and Instagram posts, the self-proclaimed “Bayou Barbie” has almost singlehandedly restored a level of femin...

College professor and TV host Marc Lamont Hill triggered conservatives on Thursday when he weighed in on the death of O.J. Simpson. Hill tweeted: “[O.J.’s] acquittal for murder was the correct and necessary result of a racist criminal legal system. But he’s still a monster, not a martyr.” Hill elaborated and clarified his position — but did not satisfy Jason. Hill and Whitlock argue back and forth for 45 minutes over whether Americ...
