  • Megyn Kelly is joined by Sage Steele, former ESPN sportscaster, for an exclusive interview about her exit from the network, how she's feeling as her lawsuit is now settled, ESPN career highlights and lowlights, the toxic environment at the sports network, dealing with some of her female colleagues, her experience with Keith Olbermann, her decision to speak out about the vaccines mandate at ESPN, the fallout that came from it, her comments about being biracial and former President Obama, the true context about it related to The View, how her own personal story about her racial background defines who she is, the breaking point at ESPN, choosing to fight back and having the support of her kids, hypocrisy at the network when it comes to speaking out on current events and political issues, her decision to fight back, being stabbed in the back by colleagues, the emotional toll the lawsuit took on her, her decision to speak out on keeping biological men out of women's sports, her parents and growing up as an Army brat, the lessons she learned growing up, and more.

    These are two women, in the modern world, that little girls should aspire to be like. These ladies are graceful, articulate, smart, witty and stong. They got there through hard work and owned their destiny. Bravo.

      I remember wishing Sage would be more outspoken before she was but glad she finally did. Glad she didn’t kiss ass and “apologize” like so many. Where’s Chris Harrison now? Lll

      Agreed. Sage is such an amazing woman. Megyn as well. These two women live and stand by their morals and don’t compromise their character anyone. I hope she was able to sue Disney for an insane amount of money.

    Her dad was West Point, and a career US Army officer. That means she was raised with an emphasis on integrity, honesty, and courage. It obviously reflected in this young lady. God Bless her!!!! THank you both!!!

      Y'all Need to Do This Again and Again call it ...The Megyn & Sage Segment, or, Precious Moment's With Megyn & Sage! This was so inspirational and Educational as Well for Living in Our Upside Down Crazy Society of Stupidity, Cowardice, Ignorance and Absolute Lostness. You Guy's were Great! I love the Exchange, Bareness of Soul and Reality, and The Rawness of The pain Experienced for doing the Right Thing, Above all Saying the Right Thing though it Caused you Lost of Friends, Misunderstandings of Colleagues from this You Care for and Thought were in your Corner only to find out They were Devil's in disguise! I had hope to listen to this in two Sittings But after you All Began I could Not Get away until I had heard the Final Words! This was absolutely amazing, sometimes very sad, yet joyful and insightful seeing how you Both handle such difficult and challenging circumstances - which speaks Volumes to those of us having to deal with such Ugly and dismal situations on our Job's and in our career's Today 2023. May God bless you Both Tremendous as He has Set you ALONE in each of your very Unique Spheres of Influence for His Glory and for the Help and Encouragement of millions all across America and the World. Stay Strong! And please please please Do This Again and Again! You Guy's are Awesome Together!

Like Megyn not really a sports fan. BUT what is happening now to young ladies in sports is ridiculous. What can we do to change this . Men in woman locker rooms , I don’t even know where to start . Where are the woman . When the misery out weighs the fear it’s time to stand together . Thank you for your show Megan Kelly your such a gift .

Hopefully, she hooks up with Riley Gaines, Michele Tafoya, and other powerful well spoken women on inspiring publically speaking tours. Thank you for this great interview. She is a winner.

    Being your true self is never the end, it's the beginning! Go, Sage! You WILL land on your feet, and you will not regret this. 7 years ago, I left a six-figure job, cashed in my retirement account, paid the taxes and stepped into fear and uncertainty. It hasn't been easy, but I wouldn't change my decision for anything.
    Megyn, you are one of the finest human beings I have ever witnessed! I'm grateful for your voice and your courage.

    I know Sage. She is one of the kindest, most genuine people I have ever known. She is grounded in reality, never acts like she's better than anyone else, and is a fantastic mother. I'm thankful to have had a brief interaction with her over the course of a few months and came away loving who she was. She will come out on top because she does the right things for the right reasons.

      The fact that ESPN made her life a living hell for stating an opinion shared by millions is exactly why I don't watch ESPN. A bunch of cowards who can't handle an opposing opinion. The settlement was for 500K which is just a nuisance fee to ESPN.

    A decade ago I dropped out of law school, because I just could not afford to keep going. It broke my heart. My goal was to work as an agent. One month later, I was blackballed by professional sports after I called out an MLB team for some really shady business practices in a way that went internationally viral… the media exclusively referred to me as a “law school dropout” as a way to discredit me.
    All that said, I’m so proud of Sage Steele. What I experienced was intense and awful, but fortunately brief. What she endured… she’s a powerhouse. Seeing her parents and the family she came from, I see why. Thank you for this interview!!!
    She’ll come out in top. Winners always do.

    This interview with Sage Steele is excellent and so informative. I enjoyed learning about her early life, her breaking into the sports-casting business, and about how elegantly she handled herself with respect to those that didn't like how she stated her opinion. Excellently interviewed by Megyn Kelly. This is one of my all time favorite interviews. If you haven't, watch it. I hope that not only young girls learn and model Ms. Steele, but also that men in any business who don't give much thought to women's experiences in the working world listen to both Sage and Megyn and digest women's points of view. I just want to say that my heart broke when Ms. Sage recalled sitting at the market pharmacy wondering why she was being forced to do something to her body that she was not okay with. I was never COVID vaccinated, but unlike her, being an independent contractor, it was up to me. I feel so much for that kind of experience that she described, of people who weren't okay with something being corralled and funneled like cattle by their corporate owned jobs into vaccination stations to please a movement created by politicians and pharma companies. And her describing of her experience as a bi-racial woman is just straight out eloquent.

    Megyn Kelly and Sage Steele this was an emotional, empowering, kind, confident, witty, lovely, and compassionate dialogue! I too, was devoted and loved my 12-year career at a top-ten golf club in the country (MGC). My daily mental abuser was the female GM. If I had resided in CT vs. PA I would have had a voice. I wished at the time that I could have hired Gloria Allred to protect me and give me a voice not to mention give me more confidence and strength moving forward. Sage, you're such a delight! I will pray for you and your Father's health. Megyn, I'm so happy that you have created such a successful platform!

    I had never heard of Sage Steele. Almost didn't watch. Initially just listening. She changed my view of the outcry against mandates, how it was so personal. I especially respected her explanation for identifying as biracial. (I avoid answering my race, except when donating blood. Otherwise, it shouldn't matter.) Respect for her mother. Hearing about her colleagues' comments, I thought "how could they?" to the woman I'm seeing. I've been through that, but sometimes understandably. BTW, I love her hair.

And now being remarried balancing my own career with my husband's and our roles in the home. So blessed to listen to these two strong women being honest and vulnerable!! THANK YOU!! Oh and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Jesus but swear sometimes too :-)

    One of the best interviews I have seen you do. I watched the entire 2+ hours. Her discussion of being biracial was eye opening. It was stunning to gain understanding of being forced to fit a narrative that opposed her personal values. She experienced this on an international arena whereas thousands and thousands and thousand of women experience this unnoticed. I stand with the unnoticed.

    I have a biracial daughter and am Italian. My dad did not speak to me for about 8-9 months after she was born. And I thought that was a long time. They became so close until he died. I had never heard of Sage until this interview and admire her strength and intelligence. But her personality is going to keep her going strong. My husband and I did not stay together so I also admire her parents for staying together.

    @Megyn Kelly and @Sage Steele, I LOVED this in EVERY WAY! Heartaches and even pressing through the injustices in such a gracious and faithful way not only strengthens our resolve and character, but it seems like it softens, and expands our hearts to embrace and give hope to the struggling around us! At the end of the show, how pleased I was to hear Sage say to Megyn, and then Megyn to Sage: "I love you." I just wanted to hop through that screen and hug you young ladies and say, "I love you girls, too!" Keep on shining! Keep on doing RIGHT! Keep on speaking the truth! Yes, "speaking the truth in Love" to the honor of the only one Who suffered in every way yet without sin, for the PURPOSE of fully identifying with and caring for us, AND paying our sin debt to reconcile to the FATHER all who believe in His Name. Megyn and Sage, to some degree you each realize that just as you have committed yourselves to His highest purposes for which He created, graced and gifted you, You have welcomed Him to take up residence on the thrones of your lives and HE ***IS*** ALIVE and beautifully at work within and through you. As soon as Megyn was just beginning to utter to Sage: "I predict... " I could sense the Precious Holy Spirit was at work in a recognizable way and that the words spoken by faith, ( and received with faith ) stirred and reinforced something in the heavenlies for your good, and also to the Glory of God as He works His gracious goodness through it... to put it succinctly, I believe the Holy Spirit was inspiring you, Megyn, to prophecy encouragement, faith, and truth. And before your words even came out of your mouth, my spirit was resounding with what HE was doing. It was Him encouraging through a compassionate sister within the Kingdom of God's Grace another sis of His Kingdom who has suffered bruises and exhaustion from the enemy's ceaseless efforts to extinguish the LIGHT and Life of God at work in you, Sage, and speaking LIFE and HOPE and VICTORY by the Spirit of God Who so loves you both!!! So be it, Lord Jesus!!! For, we are but fellow servants of the Lord "who have the testimony of Jesus." and as we edify each other in Him we are fragrant reminders to each other, even as He works through us: "Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”(Rev.19:10). Speaking truth and life and grace is of HIM, and you girls are full of His Light, and Love, and Truth, and Grace and He's polishing, perfecting and using you ALL THE MORE in this world. Lord, Thank You for blessing these girls and working YOUR WONDERS through them as they keep honoring You! Together in the Name of Jesus... Amen

    I’m such a fan of you Sage Steele , this is greatest show Megyn has ever done. Megyn got me into fox, Sage got me into espn. Both of you are the most objective analysts on those networks . Without you both, I no longer to watch either networks. Your story really moves me to tears ! As a white kid growing up in Chicagos Hyde park integrated neighborhood ! I always felt on the outside of both races tho white. When I chastised white friends for comments I was told I wanted to be black ! But when I differed with black friends, I’m now called a racist ! …..so I must be doing something right ! Lol. You both are heroes too me. Keep up the moral code, the blessings are greater than the losses !

I’m not sure what’s going on at ESPN, but they are crazy to treat you like they did and let you go. I know it’s a shock to depart a job that you loved so abruptly, but you will have many doors open soon. Keep the faith!

    I went to the Jay Cutler podcast and listened to what she said. It was nothing. What I've learned about control freaks is that they cannot tolerate any dissent from their agenda. There can be no alternatives to the thought process. Sad that she went through it. Glad she's come out stronger. Always good when the good guys (and ladies) win.

    Sage's shot story is heart wrenching.....I felt her pain. I went through it too working at a hospital(not patient care) but I did not take the shot, I just couldn't, and I too trusted God. I did get let go, I put in a religious exemption and was denied. I packed up my desk and wondered who's going to hire a 59-year-old with bad knees as I drove home. But I was trusting God. Luckily I had built up 8 weeks of PTO I thought but it turns out I didn't need them because I live in Florida and our awesome governor passed a bill and a week later the hospital called me back. God is so good.
    We are seeing so many more strokes at the hospital over the last couple years, It's pure diabolical what this administration has done.

    Sage is a gift to us all. I have to say I’m shocked she accepted a $500,000 settlement, she is worth millions. Worth more than all the kardashians combined in my book. You are an inspiration Sage, from an Italian, Irish and French woman :)

    • @freedom77769

      Actually, ESPN wanted her to settle at $500,000.00...BUT, she said NO, & Sage got well over a million dollars, but I don't know the amount obviously. Yes, I was praying for her to really go after them, and I knew she would be strong!! She's a strong Christian ✝️ Conservative Patriot, and I have always loved how she carries herself, both professionally & personally. As a husband & a father of an 18 year old son, who I'm so proud of & love so much...I've always said that if I had a daughter as well, I would want her to be like Sage Steele‼️ God Bless Sage & Family.🙏✝️.
