The Cowards I Saw Behind-the-Scenes at ESPN & in Sports | Sage Steele

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Sage Steele about leaving ESPN and finding peace in starting over; reflecting on her ESPN career covering the NBA Finals and leaving on her own terms; how Aaron Rodgers’ cancellation deepened their friendship and exposed media hypocrisy; frustrations with cowardly public figures who privately agree but stay silent; being vindicated for questioning COVID narratives early on; calling out a WNBA broadcaster’s inappropriate comment and its impact on young viewers; discussing racial, financial, and identity tensions in women’s sports; and much more.
