The Sage Steele Show

Sage Steele sits down with Dan Dakich, the former Indiana Hoosier, longtime ESPN college basketball analyst, and host of Don't At Me on Outkick, for one of the most candid conversations she has had on the show. Dakich tells the Bob Knight story he has kept private for 40 years, including the night in the locker room that nearly ended his career, and reflects on 16 complicated years with the legendary coach, the recruiting visit that broke their relationship, and how he made peace with it before Knight passed. He and Sage compare notes on their overlapping years at ESPN, what really changed the network after 2020, why leadership failed at the highest levels, and the Ryan Clark saga. Then Dakich unloads on the WNBA, the mishandling of Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham, the America 250 patch decision, and why a lack of leadership is costing the league its biggest moment. He closes with the loss of his father, the legal-pad reckoning that changed how he lives, and the two-word family motto that has carried him through firings, divorce, and everything else. New episodes of The Sage Steele Show every week.

Adam Carolla joins Sage Steele for a wide-ranging and unfiltered conversation about California, the media, and where the country is heading. Adam explains the viral trick behind his Gavin Newsom interview, how he reassigned every word of the transcript to a Burt Reynolds voice and a generic NPR reporter to expose what was really said, and recounts the night he ambushed Newsom on live television with 22 seconds to think of a question. He and Sage get into why the media lost its way, why so many young voters are drawn to democratic socialism, the demographic shift he thinks explains it, and the red tape stalling the rebuild after the Los Angeles fires. Adam also confirms he has finally broken ground on a new home in Nevada after years of talking about leaving, and reflects on why standup comedy became the last place you could tell the truth. Racing, journalism, gender dynamics, and the state of American cities, with plenty of laughs along the way. New episodes of The Sage Steele Show every week.

Olympic gold medalist Scott Hamilton joins Sage Steele for one of the most remarkable life stories in sports. Scott opens up about the childhood illness that baffled doctors from Toledo to Boston Children's, being adopted at six weeks old, and the discovery 35 years later that finally explained everything. He shares how getting fired by Ice Capades led him to create Stars on Ice, the disastrous first show that literally caught fire, why he threw his Olympic broadcast binder in the trash, and the moment Kristi Yamaguchi changed the tour forever. Scott also reveals the rule that got him through stage 3 testicular cancer and a brain tumor, the lesson his mother taught him during her own cancer battle, meeting his wife Tracy, adopting two children from Haiti, and the two kinds of criticism every person needs to learn to filter. From living in a friend's basement with a gold medal to selling out Madison Square Garden, this is Scott Hamilton unfiltered on faith, family, failure, and fighting for joy. New episodes of The Sage Steele Show every week.

John C. Maxwell has written 92 books, sold tens of millions of copies, and at 79 years old still wakes up at 4:30AM without an alarm. He says it is not discipline. It is anticipation.
In this conversation we get into everything. Why he felt special at age four sitting alone in his backyard. The fifth grade teacher who changed his life by telling him he was a leader. How he got four girls to do all his homework from seventh grade through high school. Why his father paid him to read books instead of doing chores, and how that dinner table habit put him decades ahead of his peers. The exact moment a mentor told him to write for people he would never meet, which became the foundation of every book he has ever written. Why he is a growth person, not a goal person, and why goal setters plateau while growth minded people never stop. His personal definition of success at age 35 that still anchors him at 79. What a billionaire said about failure that became the seed of his 92nd book, How to Get a Return on Your Failure. Why success and failure belong together and what happens when you separate them. The pilot story that saved his life and taught him why anticipating failure is not pessimism but wisdom. And why he says if you don't give when you have a little you will not give when you have a lot.
