Politics and the Downfall of ESPN.

A fixture at ESPN from 2007-2023, hosting the network’s flagship show, SportsCenter, Sage Steele is one of America’s most popular and respected broadcasters.

Throughout the years, Steele has hosted a variety of shows and countless live events, including SportsCenter's coverage of the Super Bowl, The Masters, The NBA Finals, the World Series, and several other national and international sporting events. As one of ESPN's longest-tenured anchors, Steele was also the lead host of the network's NBA coverage, hosting NBA Countdown on ESPN & ABC from 2013-2017 before returning to her SportsCenter roots.


Recently, Steele was embroiled in controversy after her split from and litigation toward her former employer, ESPN.

Clifton Duncan

With sharp wit, striking good looks, and a voice built for listening, veteran professional actor and singer Clifton Duncan is as powerful a presence among content creators as he is on stage and on-screen.

He holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from New York University's elite Graduate Acting Program (a subsidiary of the Tisch School of the Arts).

In addition to multiple television guest-star appearances (including on the popular "NCIS: New Orleans") and having starred on Broadway (in "The Play that Goes Wrong", co-produced by J. J.
