Byron Donalds: Why Florida Got So Expensive
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.

Colonel Allen West Remembers 9/11, 25 Years Later
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.

How an Amish Grandma Built a Pretzel Empire | The Sage Steele Show EP 121
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.

How Caliendo Builds a Voice From Scratch | Sage Steele Show EP 120
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.

How Fame Nearly Cost Brian Urlacher Everything | Sage Steele Show EP 119
Sage Steele sits down with Hall of Fame linebacker Brian Urlacher for a wide-ranging and unfiltered conversation that goes far beyond football. Brian explains why he started speaking up on the issues he calls common sense, from protecting women's sports to the treatment of Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark in the WNBA, and why he believes so many wealthy male athletes stay silent when they know better. He and Sage get into the cancellation he faced from his own team, how speaking his mind shrank his circle to real friends, and why he has no regrets about it. Then the conversation turns personal: why he quit coaching his own son to be his father instead, the "no-men" who kept him humble through 13 seasons, what sudden money really does to a person, and why he would never trade his gold jacket for a Super Bowl ring. Plus a deep dive into the 2026 Bears, Caleb Williams, the greatest defenses of all time, and the stadium mess in Chicago.

Bernie Kosar Was Given 5 Years to Live | Sage Steele Show EP 118
Bernie Kosar sits down with Sage Steele for one of the most emotional and inspiring conversations in the show's history. The Cleveland Browns legend opens up about the decade since he and Sage first met at Game 7 of the 2016 World Series, a stretch that took him through a 96-hour coma, cirrhosis, early-onset dementia, a Parkinson's diagnosis, and a liver transplant that nearly did not happen. Bernie shares the almost unbelievable story of his 21-year-old donor, a young man who told his family days before his death that he wanted Bernie to have his liver, and the bond Bernie now shares with the donor's family. He talks candidly about the regenerative medicine he credits with getting his mind back, the concussion culture that told players to hide their injuries, why he has no regrets about the hits, the bankruptcy that reshaped his life, and the faith that carried him through. From the drive and the fumble to a Super Bowl ring, from rock bottom to a second chance, this is Bernie Kosar like you have never heard him. New episodes of The Sage Steele Show every week.

The Bob Knight Story Dakich Never Told | 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.
