The Sage Steele Show

I have spent my career around some of the world's most focused individuals, but Kristan Hawkins brings a level of grittiness and fearlessness that is truly in a league of its own. As the president of Students for Life, Kristan isn't just an activist; she is a mother of four and a "revolutionary" for the most vulnerable among us. In this powerful episode, we go far beyond the viral debate clips to discuss the heart of her mission. Kristan gets incredibly real about: Her "total crap day" in San Antonio that led to saving a life—and meeting Baby Mercer. The psychology of conflict and why she believes change only happens when you produce friction. The shocking truth about eugenics in modern medical systems and the "billion-dollar pharmaceutical industry". Raising a family with Cystic Fibrosis and the radical choice to choose life even when the numbers are against you. Whether you agree with her or not, you cannot deny the passion and the "grittiness" Kristan brings to this conversation. We discuss why she refuses to be a people-pleaser and how she finds the strength to keep standing tall—even when the threats and vitriol come from both sides of the aisle.

I finally sat down in person with Leland Vittert, and while we both have some pretty fabulous hair, it's what's under the surface that left me truly moved. Most of you know him as a fearless News Nation anchor and former Fox News correspondent, but today we're talking about his raw and powerful new book, "Born Lucky." In this episode, Leland opens up about his lifelong journey with autism and a severe learning disability that once led a principal to tell his parents he was "weird" and had no future. We dive deep into the psychology of resiliency, the sacrifices of a father who worked the "night shift" just to hold his son's hand through adversity, and the incredible discipline it takes to navigate the world when your brain is wired differently.

I have spent my career around world-class high-performers, but I don't know if I've ever met anyone with the sheer persistence and focus of Scott Presler. Most people know him as the man with the hair who spent months living in battleground states to master voter registration, but today, we're going way beyond the political headlines. We're talking about the psychology of grassroots activism, the power of being unique, and the radical accountability required to actually save a country. Sponsors: Subscribe and save up to $500.

I spent 15 years only watching sports because of my life at ESPN, so I missed the initial Duck Dynasty craze—but getting to know Willie and Korie Robertson today was exactly what my soul needed. We go far beyond the camo and the beards to discuss the raw reality of family, faith, and what happens when your life changes overnight. In this episode, Korie and Willie get incredibly honest about their "rough start"—including a breakup at 17 and a "knockdown drag-out" fight with Korie's father before they got married at 18 and 19. We talk about the psychology of sudden fame, the "ginger angel" that changed Willie's health, and the "nuclear reactor" of stress that comes with running a family business while filming a hit TV show. We also dive deep into why they never left their hometown, how they handled the loss of the legendary Phil Robertson, and their mission to bring good news and revival to a world that feels increasingly dark. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to their journey, this conversation is a masterclass in resilience and staying rooted in what matters. Sponsors: Good Ranchers - Subscribe and save up to $500.

Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer joins me for a conversation that I'll never forget. We've all seen the headlines about his bravery in combat, but in this episode, we go far beyond the military accolades to discuss the real price of heroism and the silent struggle of mental health that follows the battlefield. Dakota is incredibly raw about the night he stood in the Battle of Ganjgal, the loss of his teammates, and the "big dirty secret" of the transition back to civilian life. We dive into the psychology of survival, how he navigated the weight of the Medal of Honor, and the faith and resilience required to rebuild a life when you feel like the world only sees the uniform. This isn't just a story about war; it's a masterclass in vulnerability and finding purpose in your darkest moments.

Today's guest, Dr. John Delony, is someone I have admired from afar for a long time because he has a way of cutting through the noise and getting straight to the heart of what's breaking our families. In this conversation, John gets incredibly vulnerable about his own "big dirty secret" how his success in the world was masking a "nuclear reactor" of stress that made his own daughter feel unsafe to hug him. We dive deep into the "toolkit crisis" facing men today, why we've started pathologizing normal childhood behavior in boys, and the radical choice to rebuild a marriage from the ashes. John also turned the tables on me, asking why I decided to "run it back" and get married again after a 20-year journey. This is one of the most raw, honest, and faith-filled conversations I've ever had on this show. If you've ever felt like you were just "performing" your life instead of living it, this episode is for you.

I am so honored to have Senator John Kennedy join me today. If you know the Senator, you know he tells it exactly like it is: no filter, no teleprompter, just straight common sense. We really went there in this one, covering everything from the high-stakes military action in Venezuela to the "special kind of stupid" he sees in government bureaucracy. We took a deep dive into the reality of what's happening at our border, the "loon wing" of the Democratic party, and why he's sounding the alarm on the rise of socialism in cities like New York. But beyond the politics, the Senator shared some incredibly personal stories including how he defied orders to save pets during Hurricane Katrina and his honest assessment of meeting with Joe Biden early in his presidency. Senator Kennedy is one of a kind. He's brilliant, he's hilarious, and he reminds us all why we have to stand strong because as he says, "weakness invites the wolves.

 In this edition of The Sage Steele Show, I sit down with Jesse Watters for a conversation you do not usually see on television. We talk about life beyond the camera. Family, marriage, faith, confidence, mistakes, and what it actually takes to stay grounded while working in a nonstop media environment. Jesse opens up about lessons learned, how his personal life has shaped the way he shows up on TV, and why authenticity matters more than ever. This is not a debate or a soundbite interview. It is a real conversation filled with humor, reflection, and moments you do not get in a studio setting. If you are curious about the man behind the headlines and what life looks like when the cameras turn off, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I sit down with Hodgetwins, and I can honestly say this might be the most I've ever laughed on this show. Yes, we talk about real issues. Culture. Politics. Identity. Accountability. But we also laugh a lot. Because that's who they are. Comedians who tell the truth without pretending it has to sound polished or safe. We get into what happens when you stop conforming, when you challenge expectations placed on how you're supposed to think, vote, or speak. We talk about black fatigue, social pressure, and the cost of honesty. But we also joke, tease, and laugh through it, because humor is often how people survive difficult conversations. This episode is honest, funny, uncomfortable at times, and genuinely joyful. It is proof that you can talk about serious topics without losing your sense of humor or your humanity. If you want a conversation that is real, unfiltered, and full of laughter, this one is for you.

My dear friend Samantha Ponder joins me for one of our most honest conversations yet. We talk motherhood, faith, fear, and freedom, raising kids in New York City, why safety is more complicated than we think, and what it really means to trust God in uncertain times. We also reflect on life after ESPN, being fired, stepping away from social media, marriage, parenting without fear, and why some of the hardest seasons can lead to the greatest clarity.

In this episode of The Sage Steele Show,  Isabel Brown exposes the American education crisis, the rise of college indoctrination, and why Gen Z is abandoning universities for homeschooling, trade jobs, and a return to faith, family, and tradition.   Isabel shares her journey from conservative student activist to a national voice after facing Antifa protests, death threats, and the chaos of campus culture wars surrounding Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA. She opens up about motherhood, the fear culture pushed on young women, the spiritual awakening she experienced through childbirth, the global revival that followed Charlie's passing, and why modern churches are failing a generation searching for truth.

This conversation with Del Bigtree is one of the most serious and eye-opening episodes I have ever recorded. Del laid out his concerns about vaccine safety, government transparency, and the systems that influence the medical decisions families make every day. Whether you agree with him or not, his perspective is rooted in years of research, investigation, and a deep passion for protecting children. We talked about the questions he believes are not being asked, the studies he thinks should be at the center of public conversation, and the consequences he has faced for speaking out. Del walked through what he sees as the dangers of censorship, the erosion of trust in institutions, and the importance of holding powerful systems accountable. This episode is not about fear. It is about understanding. It is about listening to people who have dedicated their lives to a cause, even when their views challenge the mainstream.

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.

I sat down with Dave Ramsey at his headquarters in Nashville for one of the most personal and inspiring conversations I've had on this show. Dave opened up about losing everything in his 20s, filing for bankruptcy as a young husband and father, and how that painful chapter became the foundation for the empire he built today. We talked about what it means to be a real leader, how faith guided him through failure, and the difference between being a boss and being a servant leader. He shared what those years taught him about marriage, fatherhood, and humility, and how his faith continues to shape every decision he makes at Ramsey Solutions. We also talked about cancel culture, courage, and why he believes silence is never the answer. This episode is about perseverance, redemption, and the kind of wisdom that only comes from walking through the fire and choosing to serve others on the other side.

Bear Handlon has lived a life of service, from the battlefield to the boardroom. The former U.S. Navy SEAL and CEO of Born Primitive joined me for a conversation about purpose, leadership, and what it means to truly give back. Bear shared the story behind his company's partnership with Black Rifle Coffee to raise $25 million to pay off veteran medical debt. He talked about the people this effort has already changed, from veterans to Gold Star families, and what it feels like to make that kind of impact. We also talked about his transition from military life to business, the lessons he has learned about sacrifice and integrity, and how fatherhood has given him a new perspective on success. This episode is a reminder that gratitude means more when it comes with responsibility, and that one person can make a difference when their heart is in the right place.

Will Cain has made a career out of saying what he really thinks, and this conversation was no different. We talked about faith, family, and the power of conviction in a world that constantly demands you choose a side. Will shared how growing up in Texas shaped his worldview, what he learned from leaving ESPN for Fox News, and why he believes truth and empathy can still coexist in today's media landscape. We also discussed marriage, fatherhood, and the importance of raising boys who are strong, kind, and grounded. Will opened up about the pressure that comes with public life, how he handles criticism, and what it means to lead with both humility and courage.

Riley Gaines has become one of the most recognizable voices in the fight to protect women's sports, but in this conversation, we got to see another side of her as a wife, a new mom, and a woman learning to balance purpose with peace. Riley and her husband Louis sat down with me to talk about faith, marriage, and how they've stayed grounded through all the chaos of public life. We talked about their journey as newlyweds, how becoming parents has changed their perspective, and what it really feels like to be thrust into the national spotlight. Riley opened up about the pressure of being a public figure, the criticism she faces, and how she finds strength in her faith and in her relationship with Louis. Together, they shared how they handle disagreements, protect their marriage, and stay focused on what matters most: family, purpose, and truth. It's a rare and refreshing look at the woman behind the headlines, and the man who's been by her side through it all.

Arynne Wexler made a name for herself online as "Non Lib Take," but who she's becoming now is far more interesting than who she was. In this episode, Arynne opens up about her journey from political commentary to personal growth, and how her faith, family, and experiences have shaped her outlook on life. We talked about where she finds her courage, what she's learned from navigating criticism in the public eye, and why humor has become one of her most powerful tools for connection. From viral moments, heated debates, to faith, and the lessons she's learned about grace, this conversation is raw, funny, and deeply human.

Allie Beth Stuckey has never been afraid to speak truth in a world that often rewards silence. In this conversation, we talked about faith, conviction, and what it means to stand firm when culture pushes you to conform. Allie opened up about her journey into broadcasting, how motherhood reshaped her worldview, and why she believes women today are desperate for truth, not validation. We also talked about the cost of conviction, how to disagree without dehumanizing, and why faith must come before fear, especially in media and leadership. We discussed the state of Christianity in America, the pressure many young people face to compromise, and how social media has changed the way we share and live out our beliefs. Allie's perspective is strong but full of grace, rooted in both intellect and compassion. This conversation was about more than faith or influence.

James O'Keefe has never been afraid to ruffle feathers. From founding Project Veritas to launching OMG, the O'Keefe Media Group, his investigations have taken on some of the most powerful institutions in America. In this conversation, we talked about what drives him to keep exposing corruption even when the personal cost is high. He opened up about being ousted from the company he built, the lessons he learned about trust and betrayal, and how that painful chapter reshaped his mission. We also dove deep into his ongoing work on the Jeffrey Epstein case, the battles he has faced with the DOJ and FBI, and how he stays grounded through it all. James spoke about his faith, his parents, and the people, like his friend Charlie Kirk, who have influenced his perspective on courage and conviction. It is one of the most powerful and emotional conversations I have ever had. Whether you agree with him or not, James reminds us why truth still matters and why it is worth fighting for.Chapters:00:01:29 – James O'Keefe's Mission and How He Got to Where He Is Chapters: 00:06:54 – When Project Veritas Turned on James O'Keefe 00:10:43 – Why Project Veritas Fired James O'Keefe 00:19:16 – James O'Keefe's Proudest Moment as an Investigative Journalist 00:23:47 – The Planned Parenthood Story 00:25:46 – Do the Nerves Ever Get to James? 00:31:25 – The Pfizer Story 00:34:39 – Can We Trust Our Leadership? 00:38:37 – Epstein Breaking News 00:51:40 – Charlie Kirk's Last Words to James O'Keefe 00:58:18 – James O'Keefe's Thoughts on Charlie Kirk's Legacy 01:02:23 – What Triggered James O'Keefe to Open His Bible BTS on Patreon: http://bit.ly/4nLmOSk The Sage Steele Show is a weekly podcast hosted by former ESPN anchor Sage Steele.
