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 deliver.
This conversation was real and raw, but also thoughtful and surprisingly vulnerable. Jason brought clarity, conviction, and heart, and I walked away grateful for the honesty of it all.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
