Jason Whitlock and Joy Taylor’s feud has hit another ugly chapter, this time escalating into personal territory that’s set the sports media world ablaze. The latest spark came from Taylor’s viral roast on Cam Newton’s podcast, where she tore into Whitlock with a brutal cholesterol joke. Social media erupted, with fans split between applauding her for clapping back and criticizing the low blow.
Now, Whitlock has fired back on his own show, Fearless, in a tirade that shocked even his regular viewers. He dismissed Taylor’s tough-girl persona, mocking her as if she were acting in a mob movie.
"Somebody, anybody, Jason Taylor, somebody come grab up your little sister, Joy Taylor. Tell her to quit fronting like she’s some gangster, like she’s Don, Donna Corleone. This isn’t a Godfather movie. Joy, you’re not a gangster. You’re not peanut butter Tupac Shakur thug life. Cut it out."
"Joy, you’re going to let one of these idiots, Cam Newton, Matt Barnes, Steven Jackson, whoever, Stephen A. Smith, whoever you’re listening to that’s telling you, man, we’re going to get at Jason Whitlock, he’s in witness protection. Where are you going to see him at? Joy, cut it out."
"Go back to Pittsburgh. Go back to Miami. Go back to whatever it was you were doing before you slept your way into the sports media business. But the little group of idiots that you let in chirping your ear and gas you up and put a battery in your back that, yeah, we’re going to get at Whitlock, he’s in witness protection, cut it out."
"You way out over your skis. You’re a little Half-Rican American mixed nut from Pittsburgh, from some suburban. Somebody get Joy and pull her back in line. Repent, become a woman. But all this little gangster stuff you trying to front like, it’s just going to get you into trouble."
"Let the men handle this. And I’m aware of who’s putting a battery in your back and how stupid they are. I’m very much aware. Not my first rodeo. They’re not going to do anything to me that God doesn’t allow."
The feud between the two has been simmering for years. Whitlock has repeatedly questioned Taylor’s credibility, once suggesting her rise in media was more about personal connections than talent. Taylor, for her part, has never shied away from mocking Whitlock, often taking aim at his weight and calling out what she sees as hypocrisy in his commentary.
What makes this round particularly explosive is the timing. Taylor, who recently lost her role at Fox Sports following the cancellation of Speak, has been navigating controversy tied to a lawsuit involving the network’s workplace environment.
Though she has denied any wrongdoing, the situation has left her career in limbo. Some believe her recent unfiltered comments are part of reclaiming her voice in the media space, while others argue they reveal frustration over her uncertain future.
Whitlock, meanwhile, has leaned into his reputation as an unfiltered provocateur, often positioning himself as the truth-teller who refuses to play nice with colleagues or former peers. By invoking Taylor’s race and suggesting she return to Pittsburgh or Miami, Whitlock played to his loyal audience but also reignited criticism that he thrives on tearing others down for clicks.
What’s clear is that the animosity between Jason Whitlock and Joy Taylor is no longer just professional disagreement, it’s deeply personal. And with both doubling down in controversial fashion, this feud shows no signs of cooling anytime soon.
