I like how she went back to revisit the conversation about clothing accentuating her body. She was able to have a teachable moment without coming off as combative or defensive. Shout out to Ryan Clark too. He drove the point home with the example of his daughter. Over all great interview. Love the Pivot and Taylor Rooks
The thing is that if she would've let him finish the question she would've understood more why he was posing the question that why. And plus, almost all of us are wearing clothes that accentuates the good parts of our bodies. She's not sexualizing her body with her clothes nor she is picking outfits that accentuates parts of her body bc those clothes look good. The point she made was one that they all agreed with that she doesn't really have a choice bc of her genetics and God-given figure.
Yeah it really wasn't a fair point for Channing to make--like if I'm tall, am I actually wearing clothes that accentuate my height or am I just simply tall and am wearing clothes? the appeal of Taylor already exists regardless, there's not much she can do about that
@@IFree33 they talk and say nothing at all. People who do what they do go to great lengths s make sure their clothing brings attention to their bodies.
Taylor Rooks is THE ONE. I hope that all of her aspirations for herself come into fruition. She's absolutely amazing at what she does and I'm modeling after her.
She hypercrit hate females come try act classy old rich european guy come get them She Expose being European Jack Dorsey😂💀😂😂man look like been in Cave for 30yrs...Sleep with opprosors come back talk being classy Dorsey worth 10 billion he on her twitter next thing no she Date with him😂She that easy imagine her College
Was not familiar with Taylor Rooks before this interview. Now I'm a new fan of a confident African American Woman who does not let her natural beauty overshine her class and intelligence. Bravo Pivot Team on another excellent guest and interview. SALUTE, Freddy, Channing, and Ryan!
@@realamericaspeech8590 quit trying to tell people how they should identify their roots, a lot of people take pride in that you’re not anyone to decide that for them.
I'm glad she's in the space to balance out the blond Becky brigade. Don't see natural beauty on here. She look more like a 🤡 right now. You probably mean inner beauty.
I love Ryan Clark man... I don't mean that in a funny way, I love his spirit. I love what he is doing and trying to become... A great example for young men... Not just young black men, but all young men. Salute Ryan Clark!!
@@lelouchx8996 I am married, why would i want to hit? You think i am like you dudes that sticking it in everything, i have a lot more to loose than you "lobby boys", with not a pot to piss in.
Channing is a national treasure and needs to be protected at all costs! In all seriousness this was a great interview. Taylor has always been someone I’ve listened to because she has a way of making people feel comfort and they can trust her. Keep up the good work guys. 🤟🏿
@@Cofitube94 as a Gator and Dolphin fan, nothing will hold Channing back. He is who he is always. He is a great story teller and has tons of great stories to tell.
"YOU CAN'T BLAME BLACK WOMEN FOR EXISTING!" I love that & totally felt that statement in my bones. This is such an amazingly powerful conversation & so relatable, especially as a woman who works with a ton of men just literally trying to do her best and be the best at what she does. It's so inspiring to see her confidence as a woman, even more so as a successful black woman in her line of work. Totally loved how she corrected without being disrespectful, was able to have a conversation with men without being sexualized, just 200 thumbs up for me. Every episode and I fall in love with this podcast more and more.
Class personified. Going to show this to my daughters. She said “I want everything this world can give me” I tell my daughters this all the time. Have respect/ get respect, be intelligent, and speak and move with confidence.
RC is so smooth with his transitional questions. He does a really good job of setting tone and leading the guest through an entertaining interview. Also, I laughed out loud in public when Chan explain when he stops acting like a cat during role playing‼️ 🤣🤣🤣
This convo was needed, especially the part about how a black woman's body just automatically changes the way clothes fits her. Channing was allowed to ask the question and he wasn't admonished for not knowing the reason. He learned and in turn we learned. I honestly never thought of it that way until watching this interview, thank you.
Honestly, I don't think he learned anything new. She just didn't like his wording even though he was right. Almost all of us are wearing clothes that accentuates the good parts of our bodies. The point she made was one that they all agreed with that she doesn't really have a choice outside of oversized suits or sweatsuits. So basically, he wanted to ask if she feels like it's being more accepted for her to wear clothes that fit. She kinda touched it but didn't really get to that.
Taylor has been killing it in the media space for a while. She's a super engaging conversationalist and her guests are always comfortable and open. The NBA bubble was when she really became an undeniable force with the access and answers she was able to get from everyone she spoke with. I can't imagine what she has to deal with being that beautiful in the spaces she works in, but she handles it all with so much grace. Much continued success to her!
The range they have for guests so far has been great. I hope this continues to keep us on our toes and really open us up to people we really know nothing about except form online or on a screen. Keep it up Pivot crew!!
Exactly! The range of guests has been top notch. It's like getting that happy meal or a box of cereal when you were younger, you don't know what the surprise was but it was going to be something good. This is how this show has become.
Taylor Rooks is definitely the mold of woman I need the mother of my children to be. Successful, confident, humorous, strong, smart, well-spoken, clean, sharp, focused, ambitious, patient, and of course gorgeous. Overall just greatly rounded. 🥺
Ryan is such a better mediator than Brandon; and these 3 together with their chemistry and brotherhood you can tell is much more solid and easily flowing than on IAA and this episode wouldn’t of done it justice on the other podcast let’s be real. Extremely valuable and necessary on The Pivot and you can tell she’s more of herself on here with y’all. 👏🏼
Taylor did a good job of verifying. the immaturity that shows it's face nearly every episode Loved "specific rype of individual that I don't understand". Ryan flipped the script instantly.
Spectacular episode gentlemen (and Taylor). I LOVE the quality, integrity, class, tone, authenticity, and range of this podcast. I wasn't really familiar with Taylor Rooks or her background but I am quite impressed. She made some stellar points! Did anyone else start getting anxiety during the whole how-she-was-dressed discussion?! Ryan kept that exchange from going off a cliff and Taylor was brilliant about handling Channing...with one glove on and one glove off. She spoke honestly but didn't "go for blood". Continue to nurture the special seed that three of you planted Fred, Channing, and Ryan - so that this platform continues to grow and one day reaches the sky.
I like how Ryan helped channing get his point across about her shape and Ryan gave a great example with what he goes thru with his daughter. Ryan kinda saved the day with that one lol
This. And I also wonder if anyone else peeped: The camera never went / panned below chest level for the panel for the entire interview. even during her shape/clothes conversation. "Forcing" the audience to listen to what she was saying vs what she was wearing. Channing is hilarious and innocent. lol You can tell he was well-intentioned but had Ryan not stepped in, it definitely would have went left. lol
That damn Channing said “when I start dropping d” and I almost fell out! Outstanding interview with one of my favorite reporters! Keep up the excellent work Ms. Rooks
These guys got something special they don’t miss when it comes to the interviews and they let there guest talk. Congratulations on another successful episode!🔥🔥🔥💯
I ain’t gone lie. Taylor Rooks is the most beautiful black analyst I’ve ever seen in my life straight from the Georgia Peach. But the thing that gets me. She’s really good at her job. She’s outstanding. No jokes.
Listen mane. These 3 gentlemen simply make people feel COMFORTABLE...even when they're asking uncomfortable or not so pretty questions. This is why this podcast is the best one out there. They leave their own egos at the door and LISTEN to UNDERSTAND versus LISTENING to RESPOND. Yeah. That way.
I’ve been following Taylor for a long time. Such a professional and example of a classic woman. Channing took me out with the 3 fingers things lmaaooo😂😂😂😂😂
Exceptional interview. Also props to the production crew - if you look closely they have the frame carefully set to not show any of her body. All the other interviews have full body shots, and the teachable moments were great too.
Based off the topics of this interview I love the fact they shot this only showing Taylor’s face and not her body forcing us to listen and focus on her words and not her figure
Disclaimer (I’m a black man) I understand what she is saying but at the same time I think she didn’t answer the question correctly. I know where the pivot we’re coming from with the question. We can’t sit here and act like things haven’t changed over the years standards haven’t dropped, morals haven’t dropped, responsibility hasn’t dropped. I remember sweatsuits being semi-baggy attire, nowadays they are skin tight cat/ body suits showing everything. Sweatsuits were reserved for workouts and home wear. Now women try to wear those clothes in professional work spaces and you are the enemy, if you say anything about it. That’s just 1 example I have many I can say
I knew the face,knew the name but not the person and I'm very impressed with the person I got to know a little bit on the Pivot. Hands-down the Best Podcast on the internet.
I love how they made sure to showcase her & her accomplishments by making you pay attention to the interview & never showing a full body frame of her so ppl can actually focus on how dope she is & not all the bs how ppl always talking about her body in comments. ✊🏾
I'm impressed with the range this podcast has. The variety of guest, and how interesting each conversation is speaks to the professionalism and quality that Ryan, Fred, and Channing bring to the podcast. Looking forward to what comes next.
Great interview! I appreciate what RC said about his daughters’ skirts having 3 black daughters myself and going through the same thing. Keep being great Taylor Rooks!
My brothers you guys keep bringing that fire if there was an award for the body of work you guys have presented thus far it’s a lock that the trophy would belong to The Pivot … I have not missed an episode and I have cut IAA from my You Tube viewing rotation. Much success keep up the good work.
Great interview! I can't wait until the day comes when women, especially black women are not over sexualized. Chemistry does not mean you want to jump somebodies bones. Taylor Rooks I'm a fan! Keep up the good work.
Taylor is an extremely talented interviewer and entertainment personality. When you watch her sit down with athletes she is truly elite at getting them to dig deep and answer questions about themselves and she gets the most out of all of her sit downs. With that said she is also a SUPER baddie and one of the most beautiful women in the industry but she is definitely more then a pretty face, she's legit great at what she does.
I agree. However, I find it hilarious when women do interviews with ass & boobs out they are offended when comments are made. As my best tell her clients keep your eyes on the forehead. 😂😂😂
@@szn1580 one of my best friends does PR & some of her male athletes say things like why she got her tits or camel toe showing to interview me? I hollered!😂😂😂 But if you tell these journalist, they say people hating or they have a right to wear whatever.
@@sabrinasolomon6387 Now Sabrina she is completely covered. Theres nothing hilarious about her speaking her truth. Come on black woman, support this young lady.
@@sabrinasolomon6387 Thankyou for telling the truth. I believe woman get to use their body as an occupational weapon. Yet get offended when a man can't stop stairing.
She speaks very well. 1 can tell that she is smart just by listening. She seemed very comfortable around the guys which they do a great job at. Great show. This makes me wanna catch more of her interviews/work
Loved this interview, loved the way she answered every question, loved every question asked. Loved her poise and personality. Top top energy and a beautiful interview. Well done y'all 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 It was easy, funny, informative and enchanting. Incredible. A fan of Taylor Rooks.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤❤✨✨and of course The Pivot. 👏🏽👏🏽❤❤✨✨
Y’all keep putting out heat! No matter what the topic and subject matter is! Ms. Rooks you have a new fan and I commend your Ahmed R. style conversation style. To the crew !!! Big up!
“You can’t blame black women for existing” shout out to Taylor Rooks ✊🏾🙌🏾✊🏾 she is great at her profession and you can tell she loves what she does. I wanted to be be a Sportscaster (even majored in JOU in college) that didn’t happen for me but I’m so proud of myself Sister Taylor holding it down for us black women, who love sports and are passionate about writing about them!
Man, this was great! I'm glad she said what she said, because when I be lookin at her I also listen to the interviews. She's really good at what she does and hope to listen and see more of her in the future.
Pivot!!! Taylor Rooks is certainly a pivotal figure in her industry and I’m glad that now she’s getting respect for her hustle work ethic and hunger. Not just being viewed as a trophy! We love and respect you Taylor.
I didn't know a whole lot, or anything at all about her prior to watching this video. But now after seeing it, definitely like her and going to be keeping an eye out for her.
I enjoyed this interview so much. I was not familiar with Taylor Rooks before this but she deff has gained a real fan and supporter. Definitely will be going back to watch her own interviews with people and looking out for anything she has coming. Also Channing is wild! Lol
Taylor been going crazy in the interviews we do peep dudes getting caught in a gaze but overall the interview be fire 🔥 salute to Taylor Rooks and the Pivot
This is so much better than IAA because I never know what to expect, going in never know why they are interviewing who they are interviewing but always love every conversation by the end!
Gwinnett County is full of professional athletes and professional people at all levels! Taylor is just one more success story for Gwinnett and she represents us well! Great interview!!!
Magnificent. ✨✨✨ Taylor you are magnificent. You have made this virtual Auntie (of three amazing sons) incredibly proud and inspired as well. Ascend and Soar. Bravo, Pivot Crew. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Another dope ass interview fellas! Been following her for years now and her interviews be on point. I'm glad the pivot interviewed her and put her on their platform!!
Nice on all levels. Great questions to Taylor by everyone, especially Channing. Keep it real my brother. I sent this interview to my daughter. Love this podcast.
We appreciate Chan for going easy on Taylor She's young and has some growing up to do just like everyone Shows keep getting better I would like to hear more of women's take on the whole Watson situation Roll on Player's

Fred is the Producer, Channing brings it all in with his humor and Ryan is gifted to interview. 3 great!!@
Taylor is an extremely talented interviewer and entertainment personality. When you watch her sit down with athletes she is truly elite at getting them to dig deep and answer questions about themselves and she gets the most out of all of her sit downs.
With that said she is also a SUPER baddie and one of the most beautiful women in the industry but she is definitely more then a pretty face, she's legit great at what she does.
I agree. However, I find it hilarious when women do interviews with ass & boobs out they are offended when comments are made. As my best tell her clients keep your eyes on the forehead. 😂😂😂
Lmao women want their cake and want to eat it too
@@szn1580 one of my best friends does PR & some of her male athletes say things like why she got her tits or camel toe showing to interview me? I hollered!😂😂😂 But if you tell these journalist, they say people hating or they have a right to wear whatever.
@@sabrinasolomon6387 Now Sabrina she is completely covered. Theres nothing hilarious about her speaking her truth. Come on black woman, support this young lady.
@@sabrinasolomon6387 Thankyou for telling the truth. I believe woman get to use their body as an occupational weapon. Yet get offended when a man can't stop stairing.
Fred barely talked… he was speechless 😶😂 I like her energy shes so engaging! 🖤
ong lmao she so bad😂😂😂
FREDDY FLOWERS 🌹 : If Fred doesn't give flowers this episode I'll be shook.
I love the enthusiasm and ambition of this young lady. Best of luck to you and all your endeavors. Great interview gentleman, keep them coming! 🔥
Another gem and I enjoy the aspect of getting the voice of those who always give a voice to athletes.
“If I’m just sitting here & you have something to say about me, that has nothing to do with me & everything to do with you” sheeeesh! I felt that one
🎯🎯🎯
Pivot is so damn cohesive. Taylor is awesome, great interviews lately!
She speaks very well. 1 can tell that she is smart just by listening. She seemed very comfortable around the guys which they do a great job at. Great show. This makes me wanna catch more of her interviews/work

Y’all keep putting out heat! No matter what the topic and subject matter is! Ms. Rooks you have a new fan and I commend your Ahmed R. style conversation style. To the crew !!! Big up!
“You can’t blame black women for existing” shout out to Taylor Rooks ✊🏾🙌🏾✊🏾 she is great at her profession and you can tell she loves what she does. I wanted to be be a Sportscaster (even majored in JOU in college) that didn’t happen for me but I’m so proud of myself Sister Taylor holding it down for us black women, who love sports and are passionate about writing about them!
Man, this was great! I'm glad she said what she said, because when I be lookin at her I also listen to the interviews. She's really good at what she does and hope to listen and see more of her in the future.
It was cool bc I judged her od too smh but I’m just a man lol
Pivot!!! Taylor Rooks is certainly a pivotal figure in her industry and I’m glad that now she’s getting respect for her hustle work ethic and hunger.
Not just being viewed as a trophy! We love and respect you Taylor.
Thank you man its so many immature men in this thread. I've been embarrassed today smh
Channing is so freaking AWESOME!!!
Lmao Channin is a much needed piece to this puzzle. The other 2 are so serious and then here he comes saying whatever comes to mind
“MEOW” 😂😂😂
Another Powerful interview from an articulate, professional, yet endearing individual. Kudo’s
I’m such a fan of Taylor. She has a brilliant mind and is a phenomenal interviewer.
Two podcasts in one week!!! Lets go! I love Taylor Rooks!!
Glad she didn't shy away from questions about how she looks and her body in her profession.
I didn't know a whole lot, or anything at all about her prior to watching this video. But now after seeing it, definitely like her and going to be keeping an eye out for her.
Pivot make her the fourth host. She brings a dynamic to the table with her Journalism background.
💯Great Idea
I enjoyed this interview so much. I was not familiar with Taylor Rooks before this but she deff has gained a real fan and supporter. Definitely will be going back to watch her own interviews with people and looking out for anything she has coming. Also Channing is wild! Lol
Taylor been going crazy in the interviews we do peep dudes getting caught in a gaze but overall the interview be fire 🔥 salute to Taylor Rooks and the Pivot
yessss Ryan for bringing up his daughters’ uniform example
Taylor you are amazing! Thank you for representing black women. We are in fact trying to exist in peace.
This is so much better than IAA because I never know what to expect, going in never know why they are interviewing who they are interviewing but always love every conversation by the end!
Gwinnett County is full of professional athletes and professional people at all levels! Taylor is just one more success story for Gwinnett and she represents us well! Great interview!!!
Magnificent. ✨✨✨ Taylor you are magnificent. You have made this virtual Auntie (of three amazing sons) incredibly proud and inspired as well. Ascend and Soar.
Bravo, Pivot Crew. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Channing crowder is just too dope. This podcast is great . Keep it up fellas. Taylor definitely did great and she is beautiful
Amazing job ! Went to school with her dad. Thomas was a great athlete but a better human.
Well done TR.
I really enjoyed Taylor's interview. It was very insightful. Thank you for sharing!
Another dope ass interview fellas! Been following her for years now and her interviews be on point. I'm glad the pivot interviewed her and put her on their platform!!
