Taylor Rooks & Joy Taylor: Two Personal on The Pivot, Shedding the sports talk to tackle hot button topics and discuss issues personal to them by sharing life experiences and answering the questions everyone wants to know!
In the ever-evolving world of sports media, Taylor Rooks and Joy Taylor continue to turn heads and establish themselves as rising stars in a competitive media space of sports and entertainment. Whether it is co-hosting shows, interviewing A-list athletes and celebrities, delivering sideline updates during games and headlining studio shows, the duo has independently created a niche as some of the most respected in the business. But now, they are teaming up together for a new podcast, Two Personal, a weekly series going beyond what viewers see on television, diving deep into the lives of them as close friends and media trailblazers. With equal parts humor and wisdom, they talk culture and social issues while fearlessly exploring complex topics like relationships and dating, body image, racism, sexism, mental health and more.
Sitting with Ryan, Channing and Fred, Joy and Taylor share their vision behind the podcast, the barriers they are trying to break and why they are comfortable being unapologetic in their own voice with sensitive topics and public pushback.
Channing has known Joy for over 20 years after playing along side her Hall of Fame brother, Jason Taylor and how exposure to his career helped shape her own journey in sports. As the current co-host of “Speak” and veteran Fox Sports personality, Joy opens up about how her perspective being shaped through her experiences, pointing to the ways in which audiences interact with her content.
Taylor’s authenticity in interviews has made her one of the industry’s best, and she mentions how the choosing her words carefully enables people to let guard down and open up. Whether it is Bleacher Report, Turner Sports or Thursday Night Football, Rooks’ presence can be felt on any panel or sideline as a premiere talent, but that doesn’t erase her from pushback and public scrutiny.
Working in broadcast media, Ryan understands the expectations that come with being on tv and being viewed certain ways but not nearly the struggles Joy and Taylor face as females in sports as the two speak very candidly on the frustrations of viewers focusing more on their appearance and clothing than their sports commentary, often contriving falsities about their personal lives based on the work they do.
Another hot topic talked about amongst the group was their varying opinions on relationships and objectifying women in general. Joy and Channing talk about the preference of having a guy who has female friends with Ryan and Fred weighing in their thoughts while Taylor later expands the conversation to the media frenzy of public relationships.
Debunking many mistruths and internet inaccuracies, Joy and Taylor express frustrations with public assumptions and explain why it’s sometimes difficult to be a respected female working in the sports world and have developed tough skin to rise above the noise. Both Taylor and Joy have worn many hats in their careers so far, but this candid podcast has shined a different light on them as people, revealing a side never seen before.
New Pivot episodes drop on Tuesdays at 12 p.m. ET and Fridays at 3:30 p.m ET on YouTube, with audio available on all streaming platforms including Apple, Spotify and Amazon. Be sure to check out Two Personal every Wednesday on YouTube and follow them on IG @twopersonalshow

Channing acting like the uncle that pulls you to the side at the cook out and says “is that you boy” 🤣🤣
-
I'm a simple man, I see Joy Taylor, I click
-
The lord is my Shepard and he know what I want😂
-
Joy said it perfectly... A person that doesn't know you personally should never be able to effect you.
-
Very few can facilitate a conversation like Ryan Clark.
-
Ryan was masterful in this interview
-
Joy said it perfectly...Showing up as your authentic self is key. They are different personalities, who present intelligent perspectives in different ways.
-
Every episode should have a second part of Channing just telling wild stories to the guest. 😂😂😂

He built like a stand up Ant ... 😂

Joy to the world! Both Taylors are so beautiful and even better at the jobs they do. Good interview fellas 👏🏾👏🏾
-
Joy Taylor fine as hell 😩
-
These guys are the truth! They can sit down with anyone. I love the pivot and crew
-
Thanks Channing for speaking for men, my wife ain’t trying to hear I’m talking to my “friend” about my feelings and not her and vice versa. These are gorgeous unmarried women, but putting that ring on and making that “Lifetime” commitment doesn’t allow that nuance that they’re talking about. What if her friend started being great friends with her man. Boundary’s are important and real marriage is different from relationships.
-
Those are two beautiful women right there!! Joy Taylor has been my crush since she came on the scene…Extremely Beautiful and Talented Women!!
-
