Ep 451 | L.A. Dodgers & MLB Cave to the Alphabet Mafia, Invite Anti-Christian Group to ‘Pride Night’
The LGBTQIA+ Alphabet Mafia can fly the “Mission Accomplished” flag above the sports world. They won. Yesterday, the Los Angeles Dodgers officially surrendered on behalf of the wide world of sports. The Dodgers apologized to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a group of gay men who mock religious faith by dressing as Catholic nuns, women who dedicate their entire lives to God and to the service of their fellow man. A week ago, the baseball franchise bowed to the outrage of Catholics and disinvited the blasphemous group of drag queens to the organization’s annual “Pride Night.” Now, caving to pressure from the woke mob, the Dodgers have again invited the demonic group back to Chavez Ravine. Not only has the sports world favored sexual and gender ideology over religious freedom, but it has also turned its back on the founders. “You realize who organized sports? It wasn’t lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgenders, and queers. It was the Young Men’s Christian Association. The YMCA.” Jason says today’s athletes would rather ally with the Alphabet Mafia than with Christians. “Professional sports are the wrong platform to mock religious faith. ... It’s blasphemous on a baseball diamond, a football field, and a basketball court.” Jason welcomes Timothy Gordon and Dr. Taylor Marshall to discuss the Dodgers' disregard for the Catholic community. Delano Squires joins “Fearless” to discuss Voddie Baucham’s excellent sermon on the LGBTQ agenda. And now that the Lakers have been swept from the NBA playoffs by Denver, it’s time to start discussing LeBron James and his retirement. Steve Kim joins Jason for that conversation.

Ep 450 | Jim Brown Refused to Sell Out, Leaves Legacy of Masculinity | Brittney Griner Fail
NFL legend, Pro Football Hall of Famer, civil rights activist, and actor Jim Brown passed away last Friday. Some in the media marked his passing by shaming the sports icon over alleged abuse from years past. But Jason believes it was Jim Brown’s refusal to bend to the political climate of the times that made him a target. “Jim Brown never sold out. That’s his legacy. He couldn’t be bought or compromised. He epitomized the kind of masculinity America now rejects as toxic.” Brown had an unrelenting set of principles and values that he lived by, and that’s what made him different from Muhammad Ali, Bill Russell, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. “The pursuit of money eventually triggers selling out. That’s what makes Jim Brown special, a man among boys.” Steve Kim joins “Fearless” to share his thoughts on Jim Brown’s legacy and his place in sports history. Plus, the “Korean Cosell” and Jason discuss Colts owner Jim Irsay’s list of the top five NFL players of all time, more specifically the legendary quarterback NOT on Irsay’s list. The Lakers are down 0-3 to the Denver Nuggets; would a sweep harm LeBron James’ legacy? And Brittney Griner made her historic and brave return to the WNBA — or at least, that’s the narrative ESPN wants to shill. Then, Shemeka Michelle attempts to make sense of the NAACP issuing a “travel advisory” for people of color and the LGBTQ community in an attempt to boycott the state of Florida. Al Sharpton made himself the star of Jordan Neely’s funeral. Shemeka shares her thoughts on the NYC nurse being charged as racist over an encounter involving black men and a rental bike.

Ep 449 | Josh Hawley Calls Out FBI, Hillary Clinton & Biden Regime | Father Time Dunks on LeBron
“You read the Durham report — people need to go to jail for what they did ... I want to see some prosecutions brought. That would be real accountability.” Missouri Senator Josh Hawley pulls no punches when it comes to the level of corruption he sees in Washington, D.C. The Durham report is just the latest example of the double standard that exists between conservatives and the modern Left. “The double standard here is unbelievable ... I think that’s the point. This is a time to be courageous. This is a time to be fearless.” Hawley shares his thoughts on the FBI, Hillary Clinton, and the Biden administration. Plus, he shares about the inspiration for his new book, “Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs.” Jason believes that Father Time has finally caught up with LeBron James. The Lakers are down 0-2 to Nikola Jokić and the Denver Nuggets. Steve Kim joins the show to talk about the NBA playoffs and ESPN’s blatant disrespect for Jokić. Jason and the "Korean Cosell” also discuss Pat McAfee’s utter shock that his audience has an issue with him moving to ESPN full-time. And Jason and Steve spar over Sports Illustrated’s attempt to convict Brett Favre of fraud for his role in the “Mississippi welfare scandal.”We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!

Ep 448 | Megyn Kelly Talks Tucker Carlson, Trump & Trans Madness | John MacArthur on God’s Judgment
“I’m sick of it. Judy Blume, Ulta Beauty, Budweiser, all of it. They can take a hike, because they’re in a fantasy world, and now is the time for us all to come back to reality.” Megyn Kelly joins “Fearless” and doesn’t hold back. The former Fox News host shares her thoughts on Tucker Carlson's departure from the cable news giant, Trump's chances in 2024, and why it's time to stand up to the transgender movement. In Tennessee Harmony, Jason, Anthony Walker, Virgil Walker, and T.J. Moe discuss Pastor John MacArthur’s thoughts on America and God’s divine judgment. Is the country living out Romans? Is it too late to escape God’s wrath? “Professor D” Delano Squires shares his latest column for TheBlaze on the legacy passed down from Malcom X and Martin Luther King and which path would have led to a better journey for black Americans. Plus, Shemeka Michelle helps Jason and T.J. make sense of Sports Illustrated’s trans swimsuit cover person, Miller Lite’s woke commercial, and a Virginia student’s lawsuit over a classroom game.

Ep 447 | Pat McAfee Sells Out to ESPN & Disney Cult | J.J. Redick Goes Woke for NBA Coaching Job
Pat McAfee has gone from being a footballer with a successful NFL career to being an enormously successful and popular media personality. The former Colts All-Pro punter built a large and loyal following in the digital media space. McAfee didn’t need the help of a mainstream media platform to become a major player in broadcasting. That all changed when ESPN and Disney came knocking this week. McAfee is ditching his deal with FanDuel to dive into the corporate cult of ESPN. His role is abundantly clear to Jason: They want McAfee and his “bro show” to serve as a beard for Disney’s real agenda. “McAfee knows why ESPN dropped a bag at his door. McAfee’s white-male-dominated show is intended to be a dog whistle to the white male, traditional sports fans who have grown tired of Stephen A. Smith, Kendrick Perkins, Ryan Clark, Jalen Rose, Molly Qerim, Elle Duncan, and Malika Andrews constantly pushing the white-man-is-the-devil narrative.” “Fearless” contributors T.J. Moe and Royce White join the show to discuss the McAfee defection. It’s the return of Coach Jason Brown of “Last Chance U.” Coach JB joins Jason and T.J. to destroy ESPN’s JJ Redick and his take on the Ja Morant gun saga. Plus, NBA aficionado Jordan Bowles stops in to talk about Nikola Jokić’s triple-double against LeBron’s Lakers in Game 1 of the NBA’s Western Conference finals.We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!

Ep 445 | Memphis Star Ja Morant Channels Tupac Shakur, Suspended for Flashing Gun — Again
“We’ve seen the Ja Morant movie before.” The Memphis Grizzlies star was caught flashing a gun on social media — again. Morant was suspended earlier this year after a video emerged of the NBA’s top young star brandishing a gun in a Colorado strip club. This weekend, Morant was caught showing off a pistol in an Instagram livestream while riding in a car with a friend. Despite Memphis’ season being over, the team suspended the guard indefinitely. Jason argues that Morant, like Allen Iverson before him, wants to be the Tupac Shakur of the NBA. We all know how the Tupac story ended; what we’ve seen from Morant doesn’t inspire optimism. “What we know of Morant’s use of a firearm only puts himself and the people around him in danger. He’s going to get someone killed. The movies all end the same.” Jason is joined by “Fearless” contributors T.J. Moe and former NBA first-rounder Royce White to discuss the ongoing saga of Ja Morant. Plus, Steve Kim dives into the Morant conversation as well as the top sports headlines, including Doc Rivers returning to Philly, Williams out in Phoenix, and whether we have seen the last of Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors' dynasty.We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!

Ep 444 | Louis Farrakhan’s 90th Birthday Sparks Debate Over His Legacy and the Nation of Islam’s
“Happy 90th Birthday, Minister Louis Farrakhan. Million Man March remains one of the most memorable days of my life. Although we do not share the same faith or view on race, we do share the same passion for black men to take responsibility for our lives.” With a single tweet, Jason set off a firestorm of backlash on social media. From the murder of Malcolm X to the Million Man March, Farrakhan’s legacy is a complicated one. Jason welcomes “Fearless” contributors Bryson Gray, Royce White, and Delano Squires for an honest conversation about the controversial leader of the Nation of Islam. Plus, conservative rapper Topher joins the show to discuss his Bible quiz videos and challenges Bryson to be the next contestant!We want to hear from the Fearless Army!!

Ep 443 | Donald Trump Crushes CNN Town Hall Debate
President Donald Trump’s CNN Town Hall drew over 3 million viewers on Wednesday night. Without Tucker Carlson on Fox News, it was by far the most watched event on cable news, bringing in over four times the normal audience for Anderson Cooper’s show. Jason believes that Trump performed well and showed signs of what appealed to voters in 2015 when he originally ran for office. There were some less than shining moments for the former president, in particular his answer to Kaitlan Collins regarding an abortion ban. “Fearless” contributors T.J. Moe and Bryson Gray join the show to recap and debate Trump’s town hall performance and what this could mean for his momentum moving into an ultimate showdown with Florida governor Ron Desantis for the Republican nomination.

Ep 442 | Tucker Carlson Takes Show to Twitter, Sacrifices Reputation In Fight for Free Speech
“It’s time for real men to return to their nature and prove their manhood. Tucker Carlson just did.” Carlson announced he will be relaunching his show via Twitter in the near future. In a three-minute video posted to Twitter, Carlson said he plans to broadcast his show on Twitter because it’s the lone consequential platform that allows free speech. Prior to Elon Musk taking the reins of the social media giant, no one would have thought of Twitter as a beacon of free speech, but here we are. Jason believes that in hyper-feminized American culture, we need more men like Tucker to resume their God-given callings. In Tennessee Harmony, Anthony Walker and Virgil Walker join the show to discuss the topic of free speech and truth as it relates to the Bible. Plus, Anthony shares his thoughts on and review of the movie “Big George Foreman.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
