Summary

Stephen A. Smith is a New York Times Bestselling Author, Executive Producer, host of ESPN's First Take, and co-host of NBA Countdown.

On this episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show, Stephen A starts by breaking down his feelings on the removal of Jackie Robinson related content on government military websites in a DEI-related purge...and the fallout it has caused. Specifically, former NFL quarterback and current NFL analyst Robert Griffin III, or RGIII, who had taken to twitter himself to express his desire for a weaker marriage between sports and politics. Stephen A also tackles Steph Curry's injury and what that means for the Golden State Warriors and Bronny James' 17 point performance last night...maybe there is something he got wrong there. The show finishes by talking about Elon Musk's Pentagon visit and the stir it has caused with his thoughts.
