On this episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show, Stephen A starts by breaking down his feelings on the removal of Jackie Robinson related content on government military websites in a DEI-related purge...and the fallout it has caused. Specifically, former NFL quarterback and current NFL analyst Robert Griffin III, or RGIII, who had taken to twitter himself to express his desire for a weaker marriage between sports and politics. Stephen A also tackles Steph Curry's injury and what that means for the Golden State Warriors and Bronny James' 17 point performance last night...maybe there is something he got wrong there. The show finishes by talking about Elon Musk's Pentagon visit and the stir it has caused with his thoughts.

In this explosive episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show, Stephen A. isn’t holding back!

First, it’s time to talk NBA. Are the Lakers and Warriors really title contenders? Can LeBron, AD, Steph, and Klay still make noise? And let’s be clear—Stephen A. isn’t about to put the Knicks in that conversation (don’t shoot the messenger, New York).

Then, a must-watch sit-down interview with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. They discuss politics, leadership, and the future of the country in an unfiltered, real conversation.

We finish the show by reacting to the latest drama surrounding former NFL star Steve Smith Sr., whose personal life just got a whole lot more public. You already know Stephen A. has thoughts and the reports that the Philadelphia Eagles may have decided against visiting the White House. What’s behind the move? Stephen A. breaks it all down.

Intentionally not a reboot of the original comedy — “everybody hates a reboot,” adult Chris jokes in the pilot episode — the animated series sees most of the show’s original characters return, like Arnold, who now voices Rochelle, Terry Crews, who continues his portrayal of Julius Rock, Jackée Harry, who stars as Rochelle’s friend Vanessa, and Jacqueline Mazarella as teacher Vivian Morello, in addition to Chris who will once again narrate the series as his adult self. The show also introduces new voices like Tim Johnson Jr., who now portrays a teenage Chris, and Terrence Little Gardenhigh and Ozioma Akagha who voice his brother and sister Drew and Tonya. A host of celebrity guest star appearances are also lined up, from Busta Rhymes, who can be heard voicing graffiti wall art in the pilot episode, to Ayo Edebiri and Natasha Rothwell, who are set to have roles in later episodes.
