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 KZhead, with audio available on all streaming platforms including Apple, Spotify and Amazon. Be sure to check out Two Personal every Wednesday on KZhead 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” 🤣🤣
On god 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The screaming at the beginning just had me dying. "Goodness gracious." Buddy could not control himself lmaoooo
I'm the nephew that says yeah unc that's me
Definitely
Nbs lmao
I'm a simple man, I see Joy Taylor, I click
Right they was looking at them jawnts entire show. I am lol
Right but Joy ain't Fucking with Taylor at all!! Taylor don't have to have everything showing if you know you know!!!! No shade to Almond Joy at all!!!
Facts she's so gorgeous!!!
@@mikelarry2245another fact!! Lol
Taylor Rooks*
The lord is my Shepard and he know what I want😂
Amen
Mashallah
God is GOOD’T
Goat comment 😂
@@gregorydeleon8394 i laughed so hard damn 😂😂
Joy said it perfectly... A person that doesn't know you personally should never be able to effect you.
Then see should get out of entertainment media. Her pay check is determine by people who don't know her to like her.
@@I.P.Freely2-yz1je You missed the point of that. People commit suicide cause of words online
Ryan was masterful in this interview
As always!
Brothers a pro
I thought so too
Dude is by the far one of the best interviewers I’ve ever seen
💯
Every episode should have a second part of Channing just telling wild stories to the guest. 😂😂😂
Chan need a story montage
That's not a bad idea. 😂👍
He built like a stand up Ant ... 😂
Chan a fool😂😂
Who even thinks that 😂🤦🏽♀️
😮😮 I ni
Son that was hilarious Channing is a foo frl 😅😅😅😅😅
Very few can facilitate a conversation like Ryan Clark.
Very few, almost none. 😊
Joy said it perfectly...Showing up as your authentic self is key. They are different personalities, who present intelligent perspectives in different ways.
⚒️🔨⚰️
Joy Taylor fine as hell 😩
From the waist up.
Are they dating anyone
إنا لله وإنا اليه راجعون
Huh
Her face card is as pretty as it gets.
Joy to the world! Both Taylors are so beautiful and even better at the jobs they do. Good interview fellas 👏🏾👏🏾
Big fan of both Taylor and Joy Seeing them thrive in this space speaking on non sports topics has been refreshing Always cool to see another side to them outside their professional ones
Been a fan of Taylor Rooks going back to when she started with the Big10 Network.
Those are two beautiful women right there!! Joy Taylor has been my crush since she came on the scene…Extremely Beautiful and Talented Women!!
Me 2 ! But shes mean af 😞
@@dizdhatt91she used to be a lot nicer and funnier and easy going when she was only on local radio in south Florida. That move to the national scene changed her
Status
@dizdhatt91 the mean one's easy to handle 😂
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.
Talk Heavy!!!!
I don’t disagree with anything they said. Their lives are specifically around men so they have those friendships that’s platonic. Men can also have friendships with women that are platonic too. I’ve been married for a while and I’m okay with my spouse having friends that are women. My trust is in my husband. It’s on him not the women if he breaks that trust.
I definitely agree.
💯👏🏿💯👏🏿💯👏🏿
@@jascreal I think that’s why they are so cool with it because their man has to understand they are gonna have many male friends in their line of work. If they both have friends of the opposite sex they both will have to compromise.
I really appreciate this conversation. Thank you for sharing this platform with them, for this episode.
Absolutely awesome interview! The /Pivot/ always gets it right with there sit downs. These brothers are what we needed for our space. Keep em coming🙏🏾‼️
Great interview with good content... Many continued blessings Queens, good job Pivot!
I've been a fan of both Joy and Taylor for a while. Salute to them and hope their show picks up the steam needed to propel them to MORE greatness.
Chan was like I'm interviewing my lil sis, this was dope. More interesting than I expected
Living in SoFla and watching the evolving careers of Joy and Chan has made me a cheerleader for both. Remembering when Joy went from local radio to national TV and hearing the 'she's got it bc she's JT's sister' crap made me bristle. Talent speaks and shows! I was happy learn more about Taylor as a whole person. Fred, RC and CC did a wonderful job shifting between Big Bro and industry peer throughout the interview. Well worth the hour of my life.
She did get it because of her brother 😂😂😂 and her looks and chest.😂😂😂
This was a great conversation 💪🏽
Love Joy giving JHill a shout-out
Yeah that was powerful imo
I love the conversation surrounding the privacy of relationships b/c we shouldn’t be judging our mates by the opinions of strangers
Loving this convo ❤
The Pivot strikes again with an Epic episode. Salute 🫡 to these n even more to the ladies. Fan of them both. Much respect!!!
Clicked for the Pivot but *Stayed for Joy Taylor and her Dress*
Man same 💀
And here I am really listening for their heart felt truth 🤦🏾♂️
Let’s be honest 😂 Joy Taylor was distracting me through out the interview 😮
Same
We know you can’t have female friends lol
She is beautiful no doubt
Self control! Aks the male friends she has if they haven't thought about it!! Self control!
Hilarious fellas both women are fine though
Not built like a stand up ant Channing😂😂😂 You Gotta love him❤😂 Love the interview and The Pivot. Continue to break down them doors ladies!!! 🙏🏾❤
Thank you ladies for representing us with class
Great job Pivot and the ladies were phenomenal as usual. 👏🏽
Congratulations for daring to venture into this space The Pivot and the ladies. If this is an area you guys are branching into I’m all for it. Was amazed at the well thought out points Joy and Taylor brought and they way RC, Fred and Chan coped with them. Great show
Taylor Rooks is one of the most intellectual people I have ever heard speak, Man or Woman. 💯💯💯
That is sad. Thats very low bar
@@takinganewapproachpodcast2994😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
she deosnt say ANYTHING. its total boolsheet spewing
It's ok bro. She dunno you so she'll never sleep with ya
Much needed interview❤❤❤
I wouldn’t say weakness but vulnerability Tay. You are 100% human and entitled to express every feeling. Great interview!
the way she rolls her eyes 🥰🥰🥰
Love you guys, and Loved this interview!!!
54:33-56:37 , Joy was Preaching!! Very well said. The conversation went to another level at that point.
Loved this explanation too. Very eloquently said.
The Pivot Podcast is one of my favorite shows. I love watching African American men and women podcasts that have substance and The Pivot Podcast has substance. These are two beautiful intelligent African American women that are worthy of my full respect as an African American man.
Another awesome authentic conversation. These two women are both exceptional at their craft. Joy and Taylor have always appeared to be well prepared for any and all discussions they’re involved in. I do not know them personally however, they appear to be just as beautiful internally as they are externally. Also, their knowledge and understanding of multiple topics precedes them. I applaud their honesty and transparency. Joy is unapologetic for her honesty!!! I absolutely love that trait in people I choose to surround myself with. ❤🙏🏾
Taylor was too up tight.
These women are incredibly intelligent..sharp & graceful …these are the women young girls should model themselves after ..seriously these women are the ones..we need more Joy’s & Taylor’s .. & they fine af on top of that 😍💯😮💨
This was a great episode! I didn’t know about Joy’s new show and I’m not familiar with Taylor’s work so this was a good introduction to her for me. Definitely want to check out their new podcast now.👏🏾👏🏾
Great interview as usual and I gained a new appreciation for Joy and Taylor and have to be honest that I learned some things from them in this interview…. Thanks for sharing and being yourselves….
Great interview, and I love the povit in this interview
This was an amazing conversation
I truly enjoyed this conversation.
Glad i saw this, I listen to these woman a lot but didn’t know they go thru half of what they shared. Respect to ya 💯
The Mac & cheese and sweet potatoes mix 👀🔥
I see what you did there 😅
😂😂😂yessir
Great episode!!! Thank you!!!
Every time I see or hear Joy Taylor, Jodeci starts playing (not that she needs anything from me, but) “Take my money, my house and my car...”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
😂🤣 why I started singing
😂😂 💯
Now that was funny.........oh and you dated yourself with that EPIC Jodeci reference. Bars!
Joy Taylor is so many things, Visually, Emotionally, & Career Wise!!- Not in that order!! I always get great Vibes from her. Her Passion is infectious…❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so so much for broadening our Baltimore City lives and loves. Greeeat!
Joy Taylor and Taylor Rooks. Lawd have MERCY, Black women. 😍😍
These are some beautiful intelligent women. Respect them to the fullest. ❤❤
Naw. Joy is a 6 at best. The other broad a 5.
@@texaslegend5076Bruh if your standards are that high let's see how you look 🤣 I'm not simpin cause they clearly not 10s, but it's wild to call a couple of objectively beautiful women 6s & 5s
These women are stellar. ✨ Thank you, Pivot Crew!
Great episode appreciate their views! Two of the more knowledgeable in the business!!
Sorry Joy that you had to go through that bs. I had some female cousins and friends that have been through that type of situation. The one thing that I get from it is that some keep that close to them and feel ashamed to not talk about the abuse. Like they will be looked at different. I hope women understand that they don't have to feel ashamed about their situation and seek the help they need to help them move on.
Ryan Clark got that Libra smarts keep upn bruh👌🏽
I learned so much from this episode. Thank you, Pivot Team
Great interview! Been a Joy fan for a minute and this interview made me a Taylor fan! Great perspectives and conversation!
Joy Taylor got them thangs looking amazing!! Sheeesh!!!
THEM THANGS BE THANGIN
That’s her claim to fame.
This conversation was soo good RC done cursed 😅
Started listening to the podcast version and I was like nope I need to see these ladies 😂. But this turned out amazing. RC asked amazing questions. Dope interview.
WHEN I TELL YOU YALL ARE THE BEST PODCAST HANDS DOWN.
19 IS a child to a real grown man
In 2005 when Channing got to Miami, Joy was 18 and Channing was 23. So not a huge age difference.
@@MattyB207it is though if the man is an adult, it’s like a man years into vs a graduating high schooler is totally different
@@Money132215 I dont think you noticed, but 18 is an adult, so there is no issue.
@@chrisburton713 true indeed & I’m aware but we can’t act like it’s not a double standard
Just loved both these 2 ladies and how real they are. Had never seen podcast of theirs but will look for it. Thanks guys keep doing a great job! 👏
Joy Taylor deserves her own talk show she knows sports and is not afraid to talk the truth 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
It is great to see women comfortable and intelligent and able to express their life so well and openly. It is so cool. Keep shining and be blessed
My two faves. Super talented.
Listen to how many times they say the word feel 😂
Opinions are feelings based.. this isn’t jeopardy
Dope interview. I fw with y’all and them.
Loved this interview
❤❤ blessed love this interview
Joy Taylor is underrated because of her beauty but she's is very intelligent. I saw her moderate Skip and Stephen A arguing for an hour then effortlessly summed up everything they said in a few sentences 😂
You mean Skip and Shannon. She was never on a show with Stephen A.
Joy’s great. Her “Maybe Im Crazy” podcast used to be 🔥 Shoutout to Brandon wherever he’s at these days.
Such a great interview. Thank you
Nice way to raise the bar…Salute Ladies 💯.
The ideology that relationships are simply contacts is why the divorce rate is so high.
She didn't say relationships are contracts she said "the rules of a relationship are like contracts, it's like what you will and won't allow to happen"
2 of the most beautiful black women ever
As a female fan, #1 Jags fan, and Day 1 listener it is so appreciated when you have a modern perspective on women's experience from the view of successful women. Thank you for having them on!
Duuuval
Love This Podcast Love All The People On This Show
They want their men to have female relationships not only for what they mentioned, but they left out the real reason. The male ego. These 2 are some of the most beautiful and sought after women on tv. They deal with men everyday. They deal with athletes with milliions of dollars everyday. They need a man that is comfortable with that fact and will not be jealous everyday of their relationship. You have to be comfortable with yourself and their situation. I don't necessarily think they want their men to have all these female relationships that they claim because they know how many women can be and they don't want to be the jealous one either. They left that out completely. Don't worry. I got you. You're welcome.
I actually think that more women want this for reasons of healthy balance with women that you respect and you have self control around. But maybe that’s just me
Please get Venus and Serena on your show
Great interview 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👍🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃❤️keep up the great work 💪🏾 👏🏽
Clearly, the Pivot Podcast is the best Sports Podcast Period.
Taylor you ain’t got to be on all day relax chill don’t stress your self
Which one lol
Fred looking like he might risk it all.
🤣🤣
😭 bruh 😂
Lmao 😂😂😂😂😂
Great show and conversation.👊🏽💪🏽🙏🏽
This was really good. I learned a lot about these ladies & from them. Nuanced & thoughtful. Amazing job fellas, definitely will be checking out their podcast. Amazing people. 🔥 💯
@43:00 Thank you RC for correcting yourself. You guys called them guys the whole time lol. Appreciate the accountability. Whether it’s little or not, makes an impact! Taylor followed up with a good answer to your question as well! Smooth interview “you guys” lol 💪🏽🙏🏽
From the introduction, I cringed, real quick.on calling them guys, instead of ladies.
Its a figure of speech
having female friends gives u perspective and makes you more all rounded.
This was a dope conversation
Yesss! Love Joy Taylor. Saw her on CC and found I was only watching the show for her heardline news segment. Been following since.
Come on RC! Speak on it
If I speak with my female family members, that should be enough.
Sometimes they suck at listening
First time watching! Dope !!
Extremely good episode. Definitely going to check out content from Joy and Taylor
My boy Freddy T left the interview or something lol?
