Jay Scott Confidential

Jay Scott Confidential -- a.k.a JSC Radio -- is not your typical Podcast. We look at sports, politics, news, pop culture, and more but more importantly, we have conversations and tell people's stories. The host, Jay Scott Smith, is an award-winning veteran broadcaster, journalist, and writer whose work has previously appeared on MSNBC, ESPN, Newsweek, Vibe Magazine, & NPR. Jay also gives you his unique take on the big issues in the sports and entertainment world, plus doesn't hesitate to smash that hot button of race, pop culture, hip-hop, politics, social justice, and more. Plus, he has conversations you can't hear any place else. Sounds by Doc Illingsworth & Ossim Jones. #NSFW. Jay Scott Confidential is a production of JSC Media, LLC.
