"Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but you don't get to take the crown off." Steve Harvey Pivot Family, we have a special episode with this one for you, get ready to step inside the life of one of the most prolific figures of our generation. In this powerful and unfiltered conversation, comedy icon, TV mogul, and entrepreneur Steve Harvey sits down with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder to talk about the pivotal moments that shaped his life — from homelessness to the Live at the Apollo to big screens of Hollywood. He shares the keys to not giving up, how becoming successful is one feat but staying there is true fulfillment. With his signature blend of wisdom and wit, Steve opens up about the grind behind his success, the faith that kept him grounded, and the mindset that separates the great from the average. But beyond the fame, Steve gets deeply personal — reflecting on his upbringing in Cleveland, the sacrifices his parents made, and how his father's discipline and his mother's prayers laid the foundation for everything he's built. He speaks on how their influence still drives him today, especially in how he leads his own family and honors their legacy through purpose-driven work. In an emotional revelation, Steve shares with the guys the depth of his bond with his father and how the closeness is something that can never be replicated and how the loss still sticks with him today. Steve's ability to use humor to discuss tough topics and address some of the darker times in his life is a masterclass on legacy, resilience and betting on yourself. Steve unpacks his biggest pivots — including walking away from secure paychecks to follow his calling, navigating public criticism, and balancing fame with responsibility. He also drops gems on generational wealth, manhood, and what today's young men need to hear about purpose, respect, and staying true to who they are. From generational wealth and black fatherhood to choosing purpose over popularity, Steve delivers game and vulnerability in equal measure. He talks about his own children, especially his daughters and how difficult it is to protect them while in the public eye but also where to draw the line between fame and privacy. This conversation goes far beyond words — it's a blueprint for building a meaningful life. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

“I think it was important in my highest moment, to talk about my lowest moment because if it wasn't for God's work in my life, I wouldn't be who I am now…. Going into that season, my mind was so cloudy and cluttered, I didn't have the right focus and I knew I needed to get help.” -Jaylon Johnson In one of the most humbling and revealing episodes of The Pivot Podcast yet, Chicago Bears star cornerback Jaylon Johnson sits down with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder for a conversation that dives far deeper than football. With a new contract as one of the highest paid cornerbacks in the league, Jaylon is revitalized by the Bears culture under leadership of new head coach Ben Johnson and believes his accountability to players is helping Quarterback Caleb Williams lead the team better with emphasis on competition and execution. He breaks down the tough wide receiver match ups he faces, who his style of play is modeled after and the games he has circled on the 2025 schedule. But beyond Xs and Os—Jaylon dives deep into his personal growth, fatherhood, giving back through his foundation, and what it really means to stay true to yourself in a league that tries to mold you. Known on the field as one of the NFL's rising shutdown corners, Jaylon opens up about the battles he's fought off the field — including his deeply personal struggle with porn addiction and the role his faith in God played in his journey toward healing and freedom. With honesty and vulnerability, he shares how he reached a breaking point, leaned into scripture, and found strength through surrender. Jaylon also talks about growing up in Fresno, the loss of his close friend and how it fueled his mission, becoming a father at a young age, and why his purpose now goes beyond interceptions and contracts. Jaylon's life is guided by something bigger than football and this conversation is about redemption, resilience, and redefining manhood—as he opens up like never before, proving that true strength starts within.

“It's been so gratifying, not just the accolades but how I've been able to show up. Learning how to love myself, learning what my voice is, and being able to trust that, stand tall and stand true in that it's enough.” Taylor Townsend on evolving  Taylor Townsend Joins The Pivot Podcast for an exclusive, deeply personal and powerful conversation after her 2025 US Open breakthrough. Days after captivating fans with her deep run and emotional performances at the 2025 US Open, American tennis star Taylor sat down with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder for one of the most heartfelt and unfiltered interviews in the show's recent history. The episode opens with the hosts giving Townsend her flowers, celebrating not just her performance on the court—where she reached the fourth round in electrifying fashion—but also her unapologetic authenticity, her resilience, and her long road back to center stage. From the jump, Townsend came through with that signature mix of grace and grit. “I've started setting goals and not being afraid of failure...I finally get to be myself and not hide from who I am,” Townsend said, reflecting on her resurgence. Over the course of the hour-long conversation, Townsend opened up about her heated post-match altercation with Jelena Ostapenko, breaking her silence and addressing the viral moment head-on, being proud that she used her words to control her emotions and how she stood firm on not tolerating disrespect, as her father raised them not to be punks but also to always stand up for themselves which led Taylor to telling Jelena- “Don't ever put your finger in my face again."  Taylor continues to open up with her childhood dreams, looking up to Serena and Venus and how despite being competitors, Serena took her under wing when she was pregnant and helped prepare her for this gratifying yet extremely difficult journey. Her battles with body image and bias in the sport, especially how early narratives in her career tried to box her in and tell her she could never excel in a sport that wouldn't accept her certain stature and build. Sharing how she lost 95 pounds in 10 months coming back after pregnancy but that motherhood and identity have impacted her life in meaningful ways. Revealing intimate details about balancing elite competition with raising her son, Adyn, which she credits to teaching her what true love and sacrifice is as she opens up on the mental side of her journey, including moments of doubt, therapy, and the role of her support system.  One of the most powerful moments came near the end, when Townsend addressed she's been on the pro tour for 13 years and been hiding for twelve of them and is now finally able to show up as herself.Taylor points to her recent loss as her most pivotal moment, in a place where her career is going to skyrocket, with her confidence, faith and motivation higher than ever. The conversation flowed like family catching up, as Taylor made the joke she felt like she was sitting with her uncles with Channing bringing the laughs, Ryan dropping wisdom, and Fred reflecting on what it means to carry a legacy in a sport that hasn't always been built for athletes like Townsend. The episode has a lot to unpack, filled with many viral moments, drawing praise from across the sports world for Townsend's honesty, charisma, and unshakable sense of self.  We talked about Toyota's partnership with football and game day giveaways, Learn more at https://toyota.com/nfl Thank you to our friends at Monarch Money for sponsoring this episode, Check them out here and use code PIVOT to get 50% off your first year. https://www.monarchmoney.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

"The chemistry between Travis and Patrick is ridiculous, with one look, they just know what the other is thinking." Xavier Worthy on learning from his teammates Ahead of YouTube streaming its first NFL game live from Brazil between the Chargers and Chiefs, Ryan Clark sits down with Xavier Worthy to go inside the mind of this playmaker and what's ahead for the Kansas City Chiefs. This episode offers a glimpse into the mind of a young star determined not just to bounce back and continue to build — but to rise to the level he knows he is destined to play at. As the Chiefs prepare to face the Chargers in a pivotal AFC West matchup to start the season, Xavier Worthy sits down with Ryan Clark for a raw and revealing conversation about life after a break out Rookie year, the Super Bowl loss, his bond with his mother, overcoming personal distractions and stepping into the spotlight as the Chiefs top wideout wit Rashee Rice out for the first 6 weeks of the NFL season. As a first round draft pick in 2024 and making headlines by breaking the NFL Combine record for the 40-yard dash, clocking in at 4.21 seconds, even catching the attention of pop star Taylor Swift's excitement that her fiance's team added him to the offense, Xavier welcomes the pressure and responsibility that come with being a true No. 1 receiver in the NFL . From building chemistry with Patrick Mahomes and learning from Travis Kelce, Worthy is prepared to show the NFL world, he isn't just a fast wide out, he's an elite one and can match up vs the top defenses week in and week out. Worthy shares how his team was on an all new level during training camp this summer as they went back to the basics to rebuild their championship ways. He reflects on what he's learned from former mentor Travis Kelce, the standard of greatness set by Patrick Mahomes, and how those experiences shaped his own approach to leadership and preparation. Worthy doesn't shy away from the personal, speaking candidly about the internal battles he's fought off the field — and how confronting those struggles has made him stronger, more focused, and more dangerous between the lines. With all eyes on Kansas City as the season kicks off, the Chiefs are more focused than ever with one goal in mind, to finish the job they started last year, winning another Lombardi Trophy. This is a conversation about pressure, presence, and proving you belong at the highest level. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On this Friday sports edition of 'Will Cain Country,' Will and The Crew break down the Cowboys-Eagles clash. Will thinks the Cowboys look very good after their statement win, but the spotlight is overshadowed by “Spit-gate” as Eagles DT Jalen Carter gets ejected for spitting on Dak Prescott.  Then, Will dives into the latest digital sports controversy: Streameast is officially shutdown. Is the villain the pirating company itself, or the dysfunctional streaming landscape that forces fans to hunt down alternatives in the first place? Finally, Ryan Clark is under fire for saying Peyton Manning and Tom Brady aren't truly “generational” quarterbacks. Does he have a point, or is this just another hot take gone too far? Plus, Will asks a wild hypothetical: what would it actually take for you to steal merchandise from a kid? Subscribe to 'Will Cain Country' on YouTube here: Watch Will Cain Country!

Football is BACK — and so are the hot takes, high stakes, and headline drama. Ryan, Channing and Fred break it all down in this unfiltered episode, where the Pivot keeps it real, even when it may be unpopular opinion or pointing the finger back at one of us! From the NFL kicking off with big energy to college ball having us amped to Charlamagne and Ciara clapping back at the world calling Russell Wilson “lame,” with Channing doubling down on his words that he said when this first all started. The guys weigh in on that situation as well as Ray Lewis stirring the pot with his thoughts on Shannon Sharpe, their longstanding bond — and how maybe speaking up on where others fall short isn't the right move, when people have come up short themselves. We get into the Sanders family, as things seem to be a little rocky with a lot of change Deion and sons continue to navigate public scrutiny, media firestorms and family pressures being in the spotlight.  And we have varying viewpoints about Arch Manning's college debut — is he truly the future, or just carrying a name? Ryan gives a unique perspective that we never realized.  In other sports, we talk tennis as Taylor Townsend's on-court flare-ups raise questions about emotion, pressure, and performance… and we spotlight a female athlete turning to OnlyFans to fund her tennis dream — is it empowerment, desperation, or both? We also break down the top NFL storylines to watch this season, the pivotal points that could define teams and careers, and the personal pivots that remind us all: growth isn't always pretty and easy, but it's necessary.

*NOTE: We recorded this podcast before the Dallas Cowboys traded Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers. But do not fret Football Americans! Shek provided his immediate reactions to the trade on our YouTube. -Newsman Bradley Best of times, worst of times? Beats the Dickens out of me what that one tale of two cities was about…but where Pittsburgh and Cleveland are concerned, I'm not sure who's better or worse… at least at sports' most important position. Now listen, I'm not insane. The Steelers will be better than the Browns this year--and of course we can laugh at the Browns. Oh my yes, we'll laugh at the Browns, that is my solemn vow. But whatever you think Cleveland's one step forward, 23-yards sack approach, at least they tried to solve the QB spot. As it happens, the two halves of pro pigskin's rusty yinz n yang are in the same spot, starting one-yr rentals both on the wrong side of 40…and that's not a real solution, especially if the goal is going the Super bowl. You think Aaron Rodgers is the missing link for a Lombardi run? the guy whose one and only trip was 15 years ago…against you? By that logic, maybe the Niners shoulda signed their SB43 conquerer Joe Flacco. I'm pretty sure the Steelers braintrust didn't see Sinners…because if they had, they'd know you don't invite in the guy who wants to suck the culture outta you and make it his own. Sorry if that's upsetting, but do keep in mind, yinz have merely adopted the darkness. I was born into it. Back in October of 2010, I said Rodgers would go down as the greatest QB in history. I still say he's the most talented. Or at least, he was. Now though, chasing the self-proclaimed private man who makes documentaries about himself isn't a sincere effort to go the Super bowl. It's about Rodgers and Tomlin's mutually beneficial hope they find redemption and reclaim professional dignity with A playoff win. There's a good reason why that story sounds familiar - it's the same script Tomlin tried with Russell Wilson last year. And that low standard is quite, Brownsie? Of course this didn't have to happen. At the draft they knew they needed a long term answer at QB…but took a D-tackle. And now, if Jaxson Dart is good, that's bad, and if Justin Fields beats Aaron Rodgers in Week One, well, it's gonna get just plain ugly. A-listers like Rodgers might get ink, but summer blockbusters fall in the NFL's offseason. The award winners don't come out til Autumn… and if you can't beat Patrick Mahomet, Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen in January. No matter which rust belt city you're in... there's no point to these fireworks. (And that reminds me, one last note to file away for next summer, Najee Harris - fireworks go in the sky, not your eye.) Let it begin! Ryan Clark joins the show to talk about Aaron Rodgers, cold shoulders and why Mike Tomlin never lost them a game. The Super Fuentes Brothers have the con in Miami. They're gonna help me with some fantasy decisions as the Angel & Devil on my shoulder. Newsman Bradley is in NYC with the black and white news. Also, big shoutout to my guy Tony in Encino, CA, who told me at soccer practice the other day he's a Football American! Be a patriot, subscribe! Learn more about your ad choices.

“I just want our guys to start with the end in mind. If you hoist a Lombardi trophy, you'll be remembered forever. That is something no one can take away from you, when you die people will remember your name, and that's your legacy.” Matt LaFleur Green Bay Packers What a whirlwind of 24 hours as the Packers welcome the NFL's best overall player, Micah Parsons, to Green Bay. As our NFL training camp tour winds down and we are just days before the 2025 NFL season kicks off, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur sits down with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder on The Pivot Podcast for a rare and candid conversation as the guys discuss what it will take to get the Packers over the hump and to the Super Bowl. After back to back years of "almosts" and tough breaks, Coach shares his mindset heading into the new NFL season and the early message he shared with the team. LaFleur opens up about his journey from young offensive coordinator to one of the most consistent head coaches in the league, and how he's evolved as a leader since taking over in Green Bay. In this exclusive interview, LaFleur discusses life after Aaron Rodgers, the development of Jordan Love, and what it's really like coaching in one of the most storied franchises in football. He reflects on playoff heartbreaks, locker room culture, and how he keeps his team locked in despite the constant media noise. The crew presses him on leadership, accountability, and how he balances high expectations with staying true to himself. Whether you're a die-hard Packers fan or just love the game, this episode delivers insight, laughs, and plenty of behind-the-scenes stories from one of the NFL's sharpest minds.
