Ep 429 | NFL GM Forced to Pander to Woke Women’s Sports Agenda
Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes wore an interesting pullover to Detroit’s pre-draft press conference. Across the front it said: “Support women and girls in sports.” Riley Gaines, the former SEC swim champ who was forced to compete against biological male “Lia” Thomas, took Holmes' hoodie as a statement against the trans sports agenda. Jason doesn’t believe that is the case. Holmes was given the shirt by Lindsay Verstegen, the “diversity officer” of the Detroit Lions. “Lindsay lists her pronouns (she/her) in her Twitter bio. Verstegen is a soldier and ally of the Alphabet Mafia. So is Brad Holmes. It’s a requirement for elevation within the NFL.” Holmes, like the majority of the woke sports world, has bought into the lie that women’s sports don’t receive proper “support.” “Feminists have cleverly conflated the words support and interest. America supports women’s sports. America supports women. The patriarchy supports women. What feminists want and what they’re forcing men to do is pander.” “Fearless” contributors Steve Kim and T.J. Moe join Jason and dive into the conversation. Plus, Shemeka Michelle checks in to discuss the former boy band star who's sparked a controversy by saying women his age come with too much “baggage” — that’s why he married someone 19 years his junior.

Ep 428 | Trans Warriors & Big Tech Escalate Attack on Matt Walsh, Daily Wire & Conservatives
“There is a Trans War. The Trans War is about transitioning America to a satanic culture. Period. End of story.” Jason shares his thoughts on what’s really going on with the hacking of Matt Walsh’s Twitter account. Was it really a hack or a leak? “Fearless” contributor T.J. Moe joins the show to help explain why a transgender man threatens anyone who stops him from entering a women's bathroom. Virgil Walker joins Jason to discuss the recent Twitter controversy over a Stephen Wolfe tweet and the eventual conflict between evangelicals and the LGBTQ movement.

Ep 427 | Does the NBA Hate Its Fans? The Message Draymond Green’s Suspension Really Sends
“I have a problem with the one-game suspension handed down to Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green. It exposes a bias and an unfairness that damages the NBA. It reinforces the fact that fans no longer matter.” Jason asks how the league went from “FANtastic” to “FANphobic.” Draymond got a one-game suspension for an on-the-court altercation with another player, but Russell Westbrook stormed a floor-level lounge and cussed out a fan in front of kids and remains unpunished. “Who is more worthy of protection, fans or players? I believe fans are.” Former SEC Player of the Year and Tennessee Vol great Ron Slay joins former NBA first-rounder Royce White to challenge Jason’s take on Westbrook and his fans. Anthony Walker stops by to help Shemeka Michelle recap the Fearless Army Roll Call Men's Summit and to share the “Fearless” playlist of gospel songs to kickstart your day. Then, T.J. Moe joins the show to share Roll Call feedback from a fan. And finally, Virgil Walker joins Jason and Anthony to share their reaction to Roll Call and his game plan and marching orders for the “Fearless Army.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Ep 426 | Radicalized Teenagers Terrorize Chicago, Mayor-Elect Defends Violent Mob
“Everybody knows what’s at the root of the chaos that we’re seeing in Chicago, but no one wants to talk about it.” Jason shares his thoughts on the destruction that continues to plague the city of Chicago. Over the weekend, a social media-driven mob of teenagers took over Millennium Park, beating a woman on the sidewalk and attacking a bus driver. The mainstream media is ignoring the daily death toll in the Windy City. Meanwhile, in Kansas City, an 84-year-old man shot a teenager who mistakenly went to the wrong address, and the media is in full-blown meltdown mode due to the racial dynamics of the case. Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes issued a statement calling for “justice” for the shooting of Ralph Yarl. Has anyone in Chicago spoken out to condemn the violent black teens' attack on a white woman? Jason and “Fearless” contributor Delano Squires discuss the epidemic at the core of the violence that infects Chicago and communities all across the country: the destruction of the family. T.J. Moe joins the show to discuss the MLB pitcher who took to Twitter to shame United Airlines but ended up being ratioed himself. Coach Jason Brown checks in and is confronted over his ranking of Ray Lewis in NFL history. Plus, we discuss Draymond Green’s latest ejection with NBA enthusiast Jordan Bowles.

Ep 425 | Russell Westbrook Storms Courtside Suite, Confronts Fan | E-40 Booted From NBA Playoff Game
“Russell Westbrook embodies the godless celebrity elite. His fragile ego controls him. His identity is divorced from God. He’s an NBA superstar, a fashion and commercial brand. The tiniest thing that infringes on his brand triggers an emotional outrage.” Jason puts the full-court press on Westbrook and Bay Area rapper E-40. Both were at the center of conflicts at NBA playoff games over the weekend. Westbrook charged into a luxury floor-level lounge to confront a fan who was heckling him. E-40 was kicked out of his courtside seats after getting into a confrontation with a Sacramento fan. Jason says that both men are examples of how godless self-worship leads to this erratic, womanly behavior. “When you take your identity in God, you care very little about what man thinks about you. You don’t get triggered by the taunts of fans. Russell Westbrook and E-40 are weak men. They think success in athletics and music grants them a special level of treatment.” “Fearless” contributor T.J. Moe shares his thoughts on Westbrook’s latest incident. Steve Kim adds his unique take on the NBA and Westbrook and discusses the NFL’s new highest-paid player, Eagles QB Jalen Hurts. Plus, Dave Shannon joins the show to recap the Fearless Army Roll Call Men's Summit. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jason welcomes Super Bowl champion David Tyree to the show to debate James’ place among the athletic intellectuals and America’s obsession with athlete idolatry.

Ep 423 | Ben Affleck & Matt Damon’s Michael Jordan Movie Shoots Bricks | Shaq Panders to Angel Reese
“Michael Jordan’s mama negotiated the whole Nike deal? OK.” Jason dunks on Ben Affleck and Matt Damon’s “fact-based drama” about Michael Jordan, “Air.” The plot dramatizes Nike’s pursuit of "His Airness," casting Jordan’s mom, played by Viola Davis, as the key figure in making the deal that changed sports marketing and the fashion world forever. There's just one problem: It didn’t go down that way. Jason refers to it as “The Woman King Part II” and calls it another example of Hollywood’s obsession with matriarchal culture. “Fearless” contributors Steve Kim, Shemeka Michelle, and Anthony Walker share their thoughts on Affleck’s adaptation of actual events. Plus, Steve weighs in on the latest absurdity to slip from Shaquille O’Neal’s mouth. Shaq says that Angel Reese is the greatest athlete ever to play at LSU. Stop the pander. And in Tennessee Harmony, Anthony and Virgil Walker discuss the disturbing video of the Dalai Lama kissing a child and telling him to “suck my tongue.” What is going on, and why are people defending his behavior?

Ep 422 | Expelled Tennessee Lawmaker Justin Pearson Received Colin Kaepernick BLM Makeover | Ep 422
Justin Pearson, the expelled Tennessee state representative from Memphis, spent his Easter preaching the “Gospel According to BLM.” His sermon went viral after his opening prayer to “Mother God,” asking his enslaved ancestors to speak through him and to proclaim the “resurrection prophecy” for “we who are black, we who are poor, we who are queer.” How did the 27-year-old son of a preacher become so radicalized? College, of course. And Jason has video of a very different Justin Pearson from the fist-waving, bullhorn-toting insurrectionist who stormed the well of the Tennessee Capitol. “Fearless” contributor Delano Squires shares his thoughts on how and why a clean-cut young man can transition into an afro-wearing Martin Luther King impersonator. In a “Fearless” exclusive, Jason speaks with “Ms. Josephine Augustus Pearson” about her “son” Justin’s extremist makeover. Plus, Shemeka Michelle joins the show to discuss how the Left is using reparations to radicalize people of color in California into demanding $5 million each in restitution for past “racial inequity.” And Jason debates another member of the "Fearless Army" over his Approval Rating score of the new Michael Jordan- and Nike-inspired movie "Air."

Ep 421 | NBA’s Gregg Popovich Spreads Anti-Gun Propaganda, Blames Republicans for Mass Shootings
San Antonio Spurs president and head coach Gregg Popovich went on an unsolicited, pregame anti-gun rant over the weekend. It’s par for the course for the leftist, elitist NBA coach who loves to preach to the common man and who believes he’s the smartest man in every arena he enters. Jason issues a challenge: “I would love to interview Popovich about the issue. I wouldn’t call him names. I’d simply like to challenge him on his narrative about the 'myth' of the Second Amendment. ... Popovich isn’t nearly as smart as he thinks. His illogic is just never challenged. He ducks intellectual competition. He’s the schoolyard bully who always picks a fight with people half his size and skips school on days he knows a legit challenger is looking to confront him.” Former NBA first-rounder and host of “Please, Call Me Crazy” Royce White adds his perceptiveness to the conversation and unleashes his own rant on Popovich. Then, Steve Kim joins the show to discuss the Pop situation. Plus, he shares his take on Odell Beckham Jr. signing with the Ravens, the recent assault on women's sports advocate Riley Gaines by a transgender person, and the shocking twist in the latest episode of “Succession.” Warning: SPOILER ALERT!We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!
