The Sage Steele Show

Sage Steele sits down with fitness icon Jillian Michaels for a wide-ranging conversation that starts where her career began: health and fitness. Jillian explains why the explosion of online fitness advice has made it harder, not easier, to know what actually works, and gives her honest, nuanced take on the rise of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and why she only cautiously recommends them to close friends under very specific circumstances. She breaks down practical, affordable grocery guidance using the Clean 15 and Dirty Dozen lists, and shares the personal story behind her own transformation, from a childhood shaped by her parents' divorce and food as a coping mechanism, to her mother enrolling her in martial arts at 12, the decision that changed the course of her life. Jillian and Sage also touch on how public conversations have grown more difficult and personal in recent years. A candid conversation about health, resilience, and speaking your mind on The Sage Steele Show. New episodes every week. The views expressed are the guest's own.

Sage Steele calls in for an in-depth conversation with Congressman Byron Donalds, currently running for Florida's next governor, just 49 days before election day. Byron opens up about growing up poor in Brooklyn, the sacrifices his mother made to keep him in school even while the family relied on food stamps, and the moment at 20 years old, after being arrested a second time, that he says saved his life: looking himself in the mirror and deciding to change. He shares how his now-wife Erica brought him to church, how he gave his life to Christ at 21, and what he tells his three sons about the mistakes he made as a young man. Byron and Sage also discuss what it means to be a black conservative in today's political climate, his affordability plan for Florida's rising insurance, housing, and healthcare costs, his approach to AI data centers, and his vision for the state if elected. A candid, wide-ranging conversation on The Sage Steele Show. New episodes every week. The views and claims expressed are the candidate's own.

Sage Steele sits down with Colonel Allen West, combat veteran, former congressman, and one of the most principled leaders in America, for a powerful conversation on the 25th anniversary of September 11th. West takes us back to that morning, from watching the second tower fall in a Marine operations center, to the aircraft striking the Pentagon wing where a close friend survived, to driving home under a silent sky with no aircraft and knowing this was the Pearl Harbor of his generation. He shares what it meant to lead nearly 500 soldiers into Iraq when only two of them had ever seen combat, the moment he told a frightened young soldier that his own greatest fear was letting his men down, and the interrogation decision that ended his military career because protecting his troops mattered more to him than his own rank. West also reflects on faith, his father's charge to always take care of his troops, the family military legacy he shares with Sage, and why he still believes America's greatest days are ahead. A moving conversation about service, sacrifice, and leadership on The Sage Steele Show. New episodes every week. The views expressed are the guest's own.

Sage Steele sits down with Anne Beiler, the founder of Auntie Anne's Pretzels, for the remarkable story behind one of the most beloved brands in America. Raised Amish with an eighth-grade education and married at 19, Anne never dreamed of building a business, yet what began as a single farmers-market stand in Pennsylvania, started with $6,000 from her father, grew into roughly 2,100 stores across 28 countries. Anne tells Sage how she priced her very first franchise on nothing but common sense, why she almost took the now-famous pretzel off the menu, and the one-in-a-million kitchen accident that gave Auntie Anne's its unmistakable smell. Along the way she shares the faith that carried her through profound personal hardship and the belief she lives by today, that life is hard and God is good. A moving conversation about resilience, redemption, family, and the American dream on The Sage Steele Show. New episodes every week. This episode includes discussion of trauma and abuse; support resources are linked below.

Sage Steele sits down with legendary impressionist and comedian Frank Caliendo for two hours of laughs, stories, and dead-on impressions. Frank breaks down how he actually builds a voice from scratch, starting with Muppet voices and working his way to John Madden, Donald Trump, Joe Biden, Charles Barkley, Morgan Freeman, and Patrick Mahomes, and reveals the "pizza slice" face theory behind every character. He tells the story he kept secret for 20 years about John Madden wanting to sue him and the Hall of Famer who refused to go along with it, what really happened the day he dressed as Trump inside Trump Tower, and how his Richard Sherman parody took over an entire Super Bowl. Sage and Frank reminisce about the ESPN and Fox heyday, from Mike and Mike to the 30 for 30, and Frank gets honest about fame, family, why he has never had a drink in his life, and the coaching mistake he owned up to in front of a team of kids. A hilarious and surprisingly heartfelt conversation on The Sage Steele Show. New episodes every week.
