Freaky Fox: The Network That Couldn't Keep Its Hands to Itself (Joy Taylor fired?!)
The entertainment industry is undergoing a massive cleansing, and Fox Sports has become ground zero for the latest scandal. What began as disturbing allegations from a hairstylist has spiraled into a network-wide purge of high-profile talent and executives.
Skip Bayless, Fox Sports veteran commentator, allegedly crossed every professional boundary with hairstylist Faraji, culminating in an outrageous $1.5 million offer for sex—which she flatly rejected. The desperation reached such levels that Faraji even tried using a cancer scare to discourage his advances, only for Bayless to double down with his inappropriate proposition.
But the true betrayal came from fellow Fox personality Joy Taylor, who reportedly told Faraji to "get over it" after executive Charlie Dixon groped her at a company event. When women in positions of influence choose career advancement over supporting victims, the cycle of harassment continues unchecked. Taylor's alleged dismissal of Faraji's experience represents the enabling behavior that allows workplace harassment to flourish.
The fallout has been swift and decisive. Fox Sports has terminated Joy Taylor, Emmanuel Acho (with whom Taylor allegedly had an affair), Charlie Dixon, and forced Skip Bayless out. While the network deserves minimal credit for eventually taking action, the fact remains that this behavior persisted for years before consequences materialized.
What's particularly striking is how this scandal highlights the broader reckoning happening across entertainment. From Chris Brown's legal troubles to Diddy's ongoing saga and now Fox Sports, powerful figures are finally facing consequences for behavior that was previously swept under the rug. The days of using position and influence to pursue inappropriate personal gratification are numbered.

Speaker 1:The thoughts, views and opinions shared on the Flow Show no Filter are for educational and entertainment purposes only. I am not a professional, I am just. Good morning y'all. What is going on? How everybody feeling today? We got a lot to discuss on this. What is this hump day? Oh no, it's Taco Tuesday. The fuck I'm talking about. This is Taco Tuesday. Let's go. Let me get this set up Taco Tuesday, everybody going to have their tacos today. Today, I hope, if I'm lucky, we get them double decker tacos.
Speaker 1:We're going to talk about a little. Of course we got a little ditty update. Zalia Banks, the entertainer, has said some wild stuff. We got to talk about that. And then also we got to talk about that. And then also we got to talk about. Y'all seen the freaky stuff that's been going on with Fox Sports? If y'all see the freaky stuff that's been going on with Fox Sports, let me know, because we're going to get into that. Hey look, being a freak ain't what it used to be. Being a freak these days will get your ass fired. Hey look, they can say what they want, but being a freak is not what it used to be and all the freaks are getting exposed and fired not what it used to be. And all the freaks are getting exposed and fired and a lot of that. People using their power to put their own benefit and all of that is definitely the days are coming to a head and I'm sure that's a good thing, so we're going to talk about that and some more stuff.
Speaker 1:How was everybody's Monday? Hope, everything good. Oh yeah, the days are numbered, so let's get in this, let's get in this, let's get in this, and I got an update too. You know we was talking about the Chris Brown, so here are. Remember, chris Brown and some of y'all got tickets and this and that we was talking about. We was going to see him and it was all kind of stuff going on and and it was all kind of stuff going on. And it was all kind of stuff going on Let me see if I can get it better All kind of stuff going on. So I have the update. So in May 2025, let me give you all the update. So in May 2025, let me give you all an update. You know, we got to do our announcements first.
Speaker 1:If you weren't here yesterday, we were talking about Chris Brown and a lot of us didn't know that he has to stay in the UK, he can't leave. So we didn't know he literally has to live there, or we weren't sure. So this is the current UK legal status. He was arrested and charged in May 2025 in Manchester for the 2023 alleged assault at a London nightclub, accused of grievous bodily harm and possession of an offensive weapon. Now we know, uh, the guy I think you say hit him and hit him in the head with a don julio bottle or something. Yeah, he can still perform there. So this is his bail and his conditions. So everybody could be clear on it, told y'all I was going to give you all the information today. He was granted bail after agreeing to after agreeing to a $5 million security $4 million paid up front and the rest later. These are the conditions.
Speaker 1:Chris Brown, aka Chris Breezy, must remain at a known residence in the UK. He had to surrender his passport, though he can retrieve it for tour travel. So he can't go places for tour and it has to be approved and y'all know how that go. So he has to have no contact with the alleged victim of the nightclub and must return for scheduled court hearings. So he appeared in court June 20th 2025, and he pled not guilty. He returned on July 11th entering not guilty pleas for the additional charges. The trial is set for October 24, 2026.
Speaker 1:So technically he has to have a residence there, but he can retrieve his passport and move around for tour passport and move around for a tour. So the answer to the question is he is not required to remain in UK, he just has to. What they're saying is he has to cooperate with the court and when he needs his passport he is free to leave and re-enter the country under monitored conditions. So to clear that up y'all, he has to keep a known residence in the UK. He has to turn in his passport. But he can retrieve it and get the fuck out of there when he needs to. He just has to get it approved and it has to be monitored. So, to answer the million dollar question yesterday, he can't technically move, so that's good. So we got that answer.
Speaker 1:So y'all, if y'all got tickets or worried about concert tickets, it's all good. Uh, all chris brown has to do is retrieve his passport back from authorities once he gets the okay to move around and shit. So I hope everybody understand that and you don't have to be nervous about your Chris Brown tour tickets. He can still tour wherever he's supposed to be at, just has to get approval now. So I was a little confused about that. Anybody else that was confused? I hope y'all are not confused now. Best of luck to Chris Breezy and this I hope the guy I hope that guy man, I hope that guy figure out a way to even though he retracted his statement, the guy that got hit in the head but they need to do something about that Get rid of that case. It's so much crazier shit going on that they don't give a shit about and they all over Chris Brown's ass.
Speaker 1:I didn't hear about that. Okay, no power ratio. You know, know, that's what I'm here for to break it, the mother down, break it down, break it down, break it down. So, uh, where we gonna go? Okay, let's go into this. Azalea banks always saying some crazy shit and I'm not really a big Azalea Banks fan, but if it go viral and she talking about it, i'ma just I'ma bring it up and then y'all decide whether y'all believe it or not. But she saying some explosive room, some explosive shit about Kanye West and Diddy and Elon Musk, so we must talk about it. Uh, let's go.
Speaker 1:So this, this article comes from, uh, fandom, uh, fandom wire, and after this, we're gonna get into the joy taylor fox sports. Freaky fox sports is the freakiest network on tv right now and they just clean house and I thought the freaks came out at night, but apparently the freaks come on on fox and we're gonna get into that. But let's, let's talk about these, these crazy ass rumors, first, and then we'll go from there and see what else the hell we want to talk about. So fandom wire says kanye west is on the ditty tapes. Um, also, kanye West hooked up with Elon Musk. These are all wild allegations by Azealia Banks.
Speaker 1:Kanye West's cousin's track sparked wild claims from Azealia Banks involving Elon Musk, virgil and more in a viral social media rant. The reason we talk about this is because the whole fucking world is talking about it right now. So if the whole world is talking about it, we got to break this shit down here on the Flow Show, no filter, every day at 8.30 am. 8.30 am Monday through Friday it's a new time. 8.30 am Monday through Friday it's a new time 8.30. I don't want to hear nobody talking about 7.30. No more 8.30, catch up with us. We made a vote, we took a vote last week, and here we are In a jaw-dropping yet not so new social media meltdown.
Speaker 1:Azalea Banks has sparked controversy yet again, this time targeting kanye west, harlem rapper, accused west of past sexual relationships with both the late fashion designer virgil and billionaire uh, elon musk, even claiming yay was involved in one of diddy's rumored freak off tapes. Now I'm telling y'all y'all know I've always supported kanye, but lately, with all this stuff he's been doing, I'm out on kanye. I'm just sitting back and seeing what the hell he going to be on next. But Kanye West, like the old saying, where there's smoke there's fire. I just don't see him getting out of all of these different allegations plus all the stuff he's saying. I really, I really waiting man. I really think Kanye West going to get wrapped up in the case. I really do, and I'm not wishing that on him. Y'all know my style. I don't wish it on anybody else. I don't want to see nobody. I only want to see people held accountable for whatever they actually did. So I'm not wishing on Kanye to get caught up in one of these sexual assault or trafficking cases. Assault or trafficking cases.
Speaker 1:But it's just too much kanye being mentioned for stuff other than his music. We don't even talk about his music anymore. We don't even talk about his, his shoes or his fashion for the past. I don't know y'all. Maybe six months the only thing we've been hearing about kanye is either he saying some crazy dumb shit or somebody saying he is accusing him of some nasty stuff. And I'm like the way this world work. If that's all you bring, that's all your name is being mentioned in and it just keeps happening and it keeps happening. Eventually you get caught up in some shit and it seems like, if any of these rumors are true. It seems like Kanye West has been running a muck and it. Anytime you run a muck, it eventually comes comes to an end. But let's continue. In this article.
Speaker 1:Banks banks's rent came after a lead kanye west track snippet titled cousins surfaced online, where yay referenced sexual experiences with a male cousin while he was a kid. That revelation sent shockwaves through social media, opening the door for Banks to revive years-old claims and inject new ones into the already chaotic narrative. On X, banks wrote Kanye and Virgil were lovers. Elon definitely got some head from Kanye off of the ketamine. Kanye is on one of them.
Speaker 1:Ditty tapes Jay-Z was like no homo. Trump was like no homo. Travis was like no homo. Drake was like no, thank you. Amber. Hit him with the strap Talking about, I guess, amber Rose. Kim thought she could, but vomited on his back and started crying. Chris yelled cut. That's a lot of accusations, I don't know. But Kanye West has placed himself right in the middle of all this ditty mess and now we don't know what to believe. Cat Williams was telling us about all of this stuff and it kind of makes sense and I'm going to be honest with you. You know I always if I have a firsthand encounter. I always let y'all know, just to give some context. I always let y'all know, just to give some context.
Speaker 1:When I was running around back in, when I was into music, running around with Floyd and 50 Cent, and I ran into I actually did run into Kanye West back in like 05, 06, and I'm going to just be quite honest At the time I was a huge Kanye fan. I mean a huge Kanye fan and when I met Kanye he definitely seemed a little off. I didn't get a good vibe and it threw me off because I was such a good Kanye West, I was such a big Kanye West fan. I didn't want to believe it. But his energy, it didn't give off male. It gave off this weird male sexual energy. I'm not lying and I and I didn't want to believe it at the time because I was such I was this was like right after like college dropout, for real, you know what I mean, and not like vintage kan. I was so excited to meet him. We were on a red carpet, I was so surprised by his demeanor and his energy was weird. Sexually I didn't feel like I was really meeting a man. It's hard to explain. I'm just giving you all that context, because that's honestly what happened and that's honestly how I felt at that time. I was like this don't seem like the same Kanye that I'm hearing on the music. That's exactly what I thought. So just take hey look, that's just my little bit of context. Take it for what it's worth, but I definitely, when I met Kanye, I definitely got a sense of like weird energy, definitely 100%.
Speaker 1:Banks also did not stop at Kanye West and bizarrely roped in the names like Jay-Z Donald Trump, travis Scott Amber, and in the names like Jay-Z Donald Trump uh, travis Scott Amber and all the names I've mentioned. But Azalea Banks tweet alleging that Kanye West had romantic sexual ties with Virgil y'all remember Virgil is the fashion design person. Uh, that, that's here. No, that's not here anymore. Uh, kanye west also hooked up with elon musk and she had no public evidence to back it. But the speculation is catching fire on social media now. We all know virgil and west had a famously close friendship, both professionally and personally. The two interned together at Fendi in 2009 and collaborated on major creative projects, including the earlier Yeezy designs, his shoes and different clothing and things of that nature. Okay, so now? Virgil's death came in 2021 from a cardiac arrest and led west to organize a tribute for him at his donda listening event in chicago. Still, no suggestion of a romantic leak has ever been uh made by either party until Azalea Banks said it Okay now.
Speaker 1:Elon Musk, on the other hand, shares a more distant connection with Kanye. While there are photos and moments that place the two in similar circles, such as Kanye West's 2020 presidential bid and public meetings with Musk, there is zero verifiable proof of a deeper or private connection. However, the mention of ketamine in Banks' claim is eerie, especially since Musk has publicly supported the control use of ketamine for mental health reasons health reasons so well. It is also worth noting, and no secret, that Banks has a history of alleging unusual and unverifiable shit. In 2018, she famously claims she was trapped at Musk's house during his breakup with Grimes, accusing him of being erratic. Those claims were later widely disputed. So Azalea Banks is known for saying crazy shit and we don't know what to believe, but this is just another instance where Kanye West is being roped into some craziness that may come back to bite them.
Speaker 1:Control their money. Hey look, this industry is falling a fucking part. It's like they're tearing down this industry. Tearing down this industry down to the damn studs. It's like having a. It's like having a re like they re like the. The industry is getting a cleansing. Like I said, we wish we wish the Diddy's thing would have went a little, a little better as far as the sentencing, but the fallout from it is a lot of these entertainers are on the hot seat. As we see, people are starting to take stuff seriously, as we see in this Fox Sports situation.
Speaker 1:How many of y'all know about the Joy Taylor, charlie Dixon, shannon Sharp, skip Bayless, faraji situation? So the explosive news that hit the fan yesterday was about freaky ass fox sports. Uh, and if you, what happened was joy taylor, who is a female uh, if you don't know, a sports analyst. She was fired yesterday, but not just her, a guy named Acho who was an ex-football player who had a show. They had a show together. They canceled all the shows with them on there and fired them.
Speaker 1:This all stemmed all the way back. You know, flo, we got to break it down, we got to go to the beginning To understand this. This goes all the way back to nasty. Y'all know. Skip Bayless, the other sports analyst, all of these freaks that got fired.
Speaker 1:This, all of this freak, all these freaks that got fired. This all started with a nasty ass lawsuit from Skip Bayless where he offered a Fox Sports hairstylist $1.5 million for sex and she was so turned off with Skip Bayless, $1.5 million couldn't even do the trick. They had to be crushing to Skip Bayless Damn near $2 million and she like, uh-uh you horrible, I can't even do it. That mean he could have offered $10 million and she wouldn't have did it. In my book. Anyway, check out this article and we're going to break this whole Fox Sports freaky. The dominoes fell. One freak after another got fired and I think this was the last of the freaking, was the last of the most freakings that just got fired, with joy taylor and outro and a couple unnamed people.
Speaker 1:But listen to how this started. This is from nbc news. Uh, skip bayless offered former fox sports 1.5 million dollar fox sports hairstylist 1.5 million dollars for sex and this was in. This was exposed in a lawsuit. The lawsuit accuses bayless, a then fox sport host, of trying to pressure the hairstylist into sexual relationship. Now this tied into shannon sharp. Shannon sharp was was not guilty of nothing in this lawsuit, but apparently all these guys were jealous of shannon sharp was was not guilty of nothing in this lawsuit, but apparently all these guys were jealous of shannon sharp and thought shannon sharp was smashing for lack of better words was smashing this hairstylist and they were mad that the hairstylist wouldn't give them any. And so they all did all kind of perverted, nasty, crazy shit to this hairstylist, allegedly in a lawsuit. But one thing we know I'm saying allegedly, but after this lawsuit heads were rolling like bowling, people got fired left and right. So let's get into this article. So let's get into this article.
Speaker 1:Long-time television sports firebrand, skip Bayless, is accused of making repeated unwanted sexual advances and offering $1.5 million to have sex with a former Fox hairstylist. According to the lawsuit, the lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles and accused Bayless and then Fox Sports host of trying to pressure the plaintiff Faraji that's the hairstylist Faraji seriously and have no further comment at this time, given the pending litigation. And obviously they did take it very serious. An attorney for Bayless did not immediately respond to an email and text message seeking comment. On Monday, the lawsuit also named popular host Joy Taylor.
Speaker 1:Now this is all the way back in January, guys. So this is the beginning of the end for all these freaks and I'm going to let you know all the freaks who got fired behind this lawsuit. But I covered this lawsuit and, of course, every time you cover something where it's dealing with a woman having a claim against men, you got a pocket of people that come out and say this is just a money grab, this is bullshit, she lying. Why would Skip do this? Why would this happen? And I had to hear all that shit. Here we go as we fast forward. Today, in July, about seven, eight freaks from this lawsuit have been fired. Once again, don't get mad at me. All I'm doing is tell. All I do is tell the facts. But that makes some people upset. But Mr Told you so was right again. I knew this lawsuit had validity just because I could tell that Skip Bayless was a perverted creep. And if you know Charlie Dixon, who was the head of content until he was fired he was the head of content at Fox Sports you could just look at his little beady eyes and tell like, oh, this dude's a freak, and not just a freak, he's a pervert. So let's continue.
Speaker 1:So the suit alleges Joy Taylor told Faraji who was getting sexually harassed, told her to just get over it, and this was after charlie dixon allegedly groped her at a party. He pushed his, he pushed his little thing up against her and hugged her and I guess he thought that was his way to get her in bed. And she told Joy Taylor about it. And Joy Taylor told her hey, this is just part of business, don't say nothing. He's the reason why we have these jobs. So she was an enabler, is what we like to call Joy Taylor, and they enabled and fired her ass for this. And they enabled and fired her ass for this. So Taylor and Dixon did not immediately respond to any requests. They tried to ignore this and it cost them their job.
Speaker 1:The suit alleges oh, thank you for that. Hey, heather Halter, thank you for the 999 super sticker. I appreciate it. It's going to go to a good cause. My belly, I'm about to smash $9.99. I don't know, I'm going to let you know what I buy tomorrow, but I'm definitely going to eat with it, thank you. Thank you so much, heather. I appreciate the super sticker. Y'all know I'm greedy and it helps. Melissa said tacos. Yep, for sure, but I think we're getting homemade tacos today. I think Double-deckers.
Speaker 1:So the suit alleges Faraji, who says that she worked both part-time and then full-time, who says that she worked both part-time and then full-time, starting in 2012 until she got fired in 2024 began working with Bayless in late 2016, while he was co-hosting the show, undisputed with Shannon Sharp. After he requested to do his, he requested she do his hair. Taylor was the moderator on the show. So let's paint the picture we got Joy Taylor, we got Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharp all on the show and we got this hairdresser doing everybody's hair. Now, shannon Sharp only had that much hair, so I don't know what the hell she would, what she was doing with his hair, but who knows? Let's continue. So check this out.
Speaker 1:Soon after requesting weekly haircuts, bayless began initiating unwanted touching in the form of lingering hugs. You know, like little perverted hugs. You know how a guy. He just want to hug you, but you just want to give him the little, the little, like what you call it, like the little church hug. You know the guy, you ain't really feeling like that, but you don't want to be me, and so you give him the little church hug and he goes in for the real embrace hug and next thing, you know you feeling awkward. And next thing, you know you feeling awkward. Well, that's what Skip Bayless was doing to this hairdresser and it kept going on and on and then it would get to the point where Skip Bayless would be pushing himself all up against the girl's breasts, girl's breasts then he, then he progressed from that to uh, kissing her on her cheeks and doing and making inappropriate comments, called uh, including he called foraji voluptuous and all type of other stuff. This, this guy, skip Bayless, is fucking weirdo and ain't nothing like getting these type of comments and getting your breasts pushed up against on a hug from a guy that you have. No, you're not trying to flirt with him at all. And this is what Skip Bayless was doing. Then he got more aggressive, direct and advance. He started. He got more direct with his advances and miss faraji, the hairdresser, continued to decline, stating that she did not date at work and she is a single mom and just needed her job. She was just there to do her job, needed her job. She was just there to do her job and Skip was there to be a pervert. After discussing the issue with a co-worker, both decided it would be detrimental to report the situation to Fox, and they were scared to report it because Fox was known for protecting a powerful man in the company. So Faraji decided to be kind towards Bayless, because if she wasn't kind towards Bayless she would risk losing her job.
Speaker 1:Now I ask I got a lot of females in the chat have y'all ever been through um? Have y'all ever been through this? Is this like? To me this seems like common at job. Job, a lot of guys want to hit on women, and especially if they are the boss, and they want to use their, their power and their clout to uh, almost force women to to either flirt with them or risk being fired. Uh, if you've been in this situation like that, you know, let me know in the chat. But to me it seems like see, I'm a guy, so I don't y'all, y'all would know much better than me, but me just being a guy and what I've heard, it seems like this happens a lot. It seems like this happens a lot. Yeah, right, lord said yes, yes, flo, it has, it's happened in my lifetime. So Angie said yes, yeah and okay. So Desi said I ended up leaving, leaving anyway. Yeah, this is, this is a problem.
Speaker 1:That's why I say people don't realize and I and I'm a guy, so I don't, I don't know it firsthand, but I just know stories that women have told me or just ways I've seen guys like kind of carry themselves who are like in a position of power. It's like they always, you know, tend to use their power to try to. I don't know it's nasty, but I've never been like that. I've never. I've never.
Speaker 1:I've been the type of person that I never wanted to use nothing to get nothing from a woman. If, if a woman didn't want me for my, for who I am and my brain and my who I am, then it didn't really. I didn't want it, no way. I don't want some woman to want me just because I'm in a powerful position. To me that's that's kind of like lame, like if you to me, if you need that, then it's corny. I wouldn't even feel right. But I'm a different type of guy. I ain't never, I never felt like I had to use none of that stuff.
Speaker 1:So when I see guys doing it like that, it's like I don't know, it's kind of weird to me, but so many people do it, so I mean it's almost like I'm the weirdo, because a lot of guys use their power to try to get them some and sometimes it works. A lot of times it don't work, but Faraji took all this stuff that was going on and took it to Fox and they didn't do nothing at first and Bayless continued making sexual advances over the years. Now, mind you, bayless also has a. I don't know if it's his wife, but she's been with her for a hundred years. He has a wife on top of all this stuff. So I mean, it's not, it's already bad enough. He just running around being a pervert, but then he has a. I mean, I don't think. I don't think they like technically husband and wife, but her name is oristeen or or I forgot her name, but they've been together for 100 years, so I want to. I know she felt like, damn bro, you had the job just going crazy. So, um, she would, she, would faraji continue to you know, decline and in in 2021.
Speaker 1:After being told that an issue with with one of her ovaries what could be cancer faraji allegedly explained the situation to bayless and hopes that he'd take pity on her and cease the advances. Y'all do y'all understand how sick this was. She literally used a possible cancer diagnosis to share with him and hope that he would feel sorry for her and leave her to fuck alone with his dusty ass ping-peng. That's crazy, that that just show you how how far he was going with it. She figured, well, oh, I could use this cancer diagnosis and maybe, if I tell him this, he'll leave me alone. But all that did was make Bayless say that he wanted to be with her. He began kissing her hands and offered her 1.5 million dollars to have sex with him after she told him about her cancer diagnosis. What in the entire fuck? What are we? What are we talking about? Right here, she goes to skip bayless and tells him about her, her possible cancer diagnosis, using this as a way to maybe, like this clown, will calm down on all this nasty sexual advances. And he takes it further and tells her he wants to be with her, kisses her on the hand and offers her damn near two million dollars to have sex with him, in which she declined. And she said uh, she just made excuse to leave.
Speaker 1:Now, around june 2024, before skip bayless's departure, bayless allegedly told faraji that he fantasized about sex with her and asked her how much money it would take for her to acquiesce, to which faraji responded by replying that she already refused 1.5 million dollars and her answer would not change. I don't give a fuck how much money you offer. In other words, it ain't enough money in the world to get me to sleep with your crazy, perverted, decrepit looking ass. That's my specter. I'm putting words in her mouth, but basically that's what she's saying.
Speaker 1:At a January 2017 birthday party for Joy Taylor, dixon, who allegedly been heavily drinking, placed his arms on Faraji's lower back before rubbing her body and grabbing her buttocks. Faraji faked a call to get out of the situation, according to the suit, and told Joy Taylor what had happened. Surprisingly, joy Taylor responded get over it and explained to herself that she only had her job because of freaky ass Charlie Dixon, and she warned that the job could be taken away. Another co-worker also advised Faraji to keep quiet. Everybody was enabling these freaks. That's what I'm getting from this At this point.
Speaker 1:Faraji wanted to seek justice and that's when she went forward with her lawsuit. Lily says she is single myself, so I'm over here with you. Melissa. What Melissa over there talking about what Melissa done said I got to back up the chat. I'm trying to find. I'm trying to find Melissa. What is Melissa talking about? This is trifling. Anyway, let's continue.
Speaker 1:Um, the lawsuit also alleges, a hostile work environment. Um, for veragi, to say the least, shit, hostile is being nice. The suit also alleges veragi and taylor's friendship ended in late 2021. They were friends, after which taylor began insulting faraji, who is iranian descent, on a personal and professional level. So, joy, taylor, start harassing I mean, uh, like harassing and talking about the Iranian lady.
Speaker 1:Now, I don't know and this is just for context, but a lot of people haven't seen it Faraji is a very attractive young lady and her vibe seems like a very sweet about her business, quiet person. I don't know, but from the interactions I've saw, her video I've seen she seems like a quiet, do her work type of person. But she is very attractive. She's very attractive young lady from what I saw, the pictures and the videos I saw. So it's just a shame that she's there to do her work a single mother trying to earn a living, and she got all these powerful, decrepit, nasty men groping her left and right. It's crazy, these guys, man. They are. It's some desperate. It's some desperate freaks out here y'all for real. I don't know what we're gonna do about them, but at least we, at least they keep getting fired. So, anyway, um, 2023, taylor, joy, taylor began mocking faraji's english and complaining about her humming, which was a coping mechanism for Faraji's post-traumatic stress disorder. So Joy Taylor was picking on her in a sense, mocking her the way she talked. You know she's a foreigner.
Speaker 1:Faraji was fired shortly after Bayless left the network and, given a false pretext for her termination, they thought of a stupid reason to fire her. They came up with a stupid reason and they just went with it. So it's just a whole sad situation. But the fallout for this made all of this kind of worth it, because everybody involved got canned, and I like it. But they fire her despite faraji being an excellent hairdresser and continuously being requested by talent. She was shrunken down to how much she could appease Mr Bayless and Charlie Dixon and once she wasn't giving up the butt or doing everything that they wanted to do or being receptive to all their advances, they fired, even though she was excellent at her job. So, uh, bayless left, as you know, he left Fox Sports and that left Taylor Ocho and uh and uh, the rest of the freaky bunch. Now that's some hell of a context.
Speaker 1:Now let's fast forward all the way back up to now, the recent news of Joy Taylor being fired. Now also, what came out of this situation was Joy Taylor is married this whole time, but Joy Taylor had an affair with Charlie Dixon. I guess it was in order to keep her job or continue to get the best, whatever, but it was alleged she had an affair with Charlie Dixon, who was the head of content at Fox Sports, but she also was sleeping with Acho, who was another. Acho was on the show Speak for Yourself and Joy Taylor was also allegedly sleeping with him. Well, he got fired too, and when his name was named and all this shit, nobody knew nothing about him being in this. So people was like damn, acho. Ex-nfl player joy taylor was busy. So it led up to outro gone, charlie dixon gone, skip bayless gone.
Speaker 1:And now let me add in some context about the Shannon Sharp situation. Skip Bayless and Charlie Dixon were jealous and telling Faraji that why would she sleep with Shannon Sharp and not sleep with them? I'm going to repeat that for everybody who may have missed it. May have missed it. Skip Bayless used to tell Faraji that he accused her of sleeping with Shannon Sharp and that made him even more jealous, him and Charlie. Now, faraji did not sleep with Shannon Sharp. He not caught up in any of this. I'm just letting y'all know that it was so much going on. You got the jealousy between Skip Bayless and shannon sharp and charlie dixon and shannon sharp. You got joy taylor sleeping with everything that and everybody that ain't nailed down. Then you got joy taylor talking shit about faraji and basically you know, treating, mistreating her because she was seeking justice. This, this was a crazy-ass work environment. A crazy-ass work environment to be in. So Joy Taylor was axed. Fox and this article comes from the TV Insider Fox Sports, is making some major programming changes and Joy Taylor's show, speak, is affected and the talk shows as well. Additionally, breakfast ball and the facility have also got x? X.
Speaker 1:News of joy taylor's dismissal comes six months after she was at the center of a controversy following a lawsuit filed by former Fox Sports hairstylist Faraji. Faraji accused Fox Sports executive vice president Charlie Dixon and host Skip Bayless of Sexual Battery and her lawsuit and she claimed. Now this was in the lawsuit. She claimed Taylor slept with Dixon and Emmanuel Acho to get jobs on the shows. According to Faraji, faraji dropped some serious heat and she is being vindicated because obviously something was going on. All these people getting fired out of the blue and and and and for foraji to have to go through all this and I'm sure I haven't heard anything about her getting paid, but I'm sure she about to get paid or already got paid because if they fired everybody who was involved charlie dixon, I believe, was the first to be fired, then skip bayless was forced out and now uh uh, joy, taylor and acho are out of there.
Speaker 1:Taylor uh appeared um on the breakfast club and she basically kind of dismissed what was going on and she and oh, let me tell you something else, joy Taylor said that was in this lawsuit. She said that if, if Fox force or anybody tried to fire her, she would just say that some guys at the company forced themselves on her. And I thought that was really foul. And see, when you be, when you do foul shit like that, you get foul shit in return. And on top of that, for her to, on top of that, for her to like this, like harass Faraji and not have her back in any kind of way, I just think that was foul and I think Joy Taylor deserves to be fired.
Speaker 1:And I never got a good vibe about Joy Taylor either, to be honest. But to know that stuff like this is going on in in the uh, in the work environment is ridiculous. You would not think a big network like Fox even though we know how weird this industry is you would not think a big network like Fox would have this type of bullshit going on. But they do, yep, and Taylor needs to be fired. She is up out of there. They gave her her walking papers. Look y'all women. It's enough guys who don't give a shit. But I think it's even worse when you got a woman who knows firsthand what women go through. Not having her back whatsoever. Joy Taylor should be ashamed of herself. Emmanuel Acho is out of there now. Only person who came out of this situation smelling like roses, even though he got his own situation going on now, was actually Shannon Sharp. By not having you know, by not being caught up in this mess, but then he caught up in his own mess. So we'll see how that goes, but this situation is definitely more heads are going to roll.
Speaker 1:Even though Fox Sports was slow to make these decisions, I give them an itty-bitty amount of credit. I give them an itty-bitty amount of credit for pulling the trigger and getting rid of all these freaks, but at the end of the day. It still sad to see, uh, what type of shit people got to go through at the work when you're just trying to do your work. Did I miss real quick before I get to the uh, continue. Did I miss any super chats or super stickers? Because the whole time I've been talking I've had this. It's been in this mode where I could barely see the chat. So if I missed some super stickers it's because I couldn't see the chat. I'm trying to go through it now, but if y'all could let me know if I missed any, I will get to them and give them their shout out. Definitely subscribe. If you haven't subscribed, I'll put the link in the chat.
Speaker 1:Okay, I got the one from Heather and then I got the one from oh, linda, $4.99. I missed it. Linda, let me give you your flowers and your credit for contributing to my belly. This big boy, eat y'all. So, linda Zinner, thank you so much for the $4.99 super sticker. As always, all super stickers go to an excellent cause my stomach and my appetite. So I thank you kindly for the super sticker, linda. Linda, linda Zinner, thank you so much. Let me see if anybody else Y'all are so kind. Teen Sheen, I don't know if I already mentioned it earlier I can't remember because I saw it. But thank you, teen Sheen, for the $2 super sticker. It also will feed me and go towards a good meal for Flo. Flo loves to eat and Flo appreciates the super stickers. But y'all this is Okay.
Speaker 1:So Angie said coercion, and I get it. So Angie says the coercion is part of the thrill for them and that makes sense. So the thrill for them is to be able to coerce and use their power to get them, to get them for the women to get in bed. So Angie says that's part of their game or part of why they enjoy doing whatever it is they're doing. I could see that, uh.
Speaker 1:Laura says I work with mostly men. I asked them, they would never with. They all said lord. Melissa said I feel the same. Heaven says it is just nasty. Melissa. Melissa says her key is that she has a pretty good resting bitch face. That will do it. That will keep 90 of the guys away from bullshit. That's on, that's on trash.
Speaker 1:Margaret says gotta have connection with the person, not what they have. Yes, exactly yeah. It ain't about what you got, it's about the connection, for sure. But this is something let's see. Let's see, uh, yanni, what you saying, yanni. Yanni says man touching women's lower back at work or lingering touching during, uh, company pictures.
Speaker 1:If you say something, the response is they didn't mean it that way. So even when we speak up, it's our fault. Yeah, it's fucked up, y'all. I ain't gonna lie. When I was younger, I used to think women were exaggerating, because, you know, I was a kid, I didn't know nothing about the work environment, but I did used to hear like these stories and you'd be like, man, people can't be this, this messed up, can they? And uh, actually they can. So, uh, as I as a, as an older man, I do realize how bad it is and how much y'all do be going through, because even as a man, I don't like and I'm a guy, I don't even like the extra flirting from people. I don't like, like that, and I'm a guy, so I can imagine a female dealing with men and power and all of that. Yes, it's crazy, but yeah.
Speaker 1:So Lily says you're going to have a happy belly today, flo. Yes, it's crazy, but yeah. So Lily says you're going to have a happy belly today, flo. Yes, I am, I'm about to be. I'm gonna have me a good lunch. I don't know what I'm gonna have yet, but I know it's gonna be good and it's gonna be hot and ready.
Speaker 1:Melissa also says she did have a creepy coworker who always tried to put his hands on her, but then she had to get into bitch mode. You got to have a good bitch mode for these guys y'all, because they will try y'all and whoever don't check them. They're just going to take it further and further and further, because that's just what they do. It's crazy. But, like I said, these days you're getting fired for that shit, like Fox Sports fired, joy Taylor fired and it was more names, just that. The other names I don't know them and I'm sure y'all don't know who they are, so I just left them out of this story. But it's more people got fired than just them.
Speaker 1:So the thing is this Skip and man Like Skip, only think about themselves. What else y'all got to say? Anit, you said desperate, just desperate, huh, anita. Anita said just desperate, just desperate. Ass man, put your two mil. Put your two mil towards cancer. There you go. That was a good answer, lord. Put your two mil towards cancer research, yanni. Let's get to this comment. Another comment Yanni says what you over here, what you just said. Yanni says women get painted as gold diggers. But even when women say no to money, they're still painted as the problem.
Speaker 1:Yep, because a lot of people didn't believe Faraji until all these people started getting fired. And then people were like you know what she might have had a point getting fired? And then people were like you know what she might have had a point. It's like, uh, you think so. This is a uh, a day that I knew was coming, um, but I didn't. Actually I didn't know joy taylor would get fired, though for some reason I thought she would survive this. Um, but obviously box sports know how serious this is.
Speaker 1:And they said all y'all can kick rocks and flip flops with no socks and get the hell off of my damn network, and I like it. I like to see progression y'all, because it is, it is. It does get to a point where it's like, even as a man, it just like gets embarrassing, like come on y'all, y'all ain't never had none before. There's plenty of women out here. If you just talk and learn how to have a conversation and just learn how to not do so much, and you won't have such a hard time getting some. These guys are like I don't know where they come from, but I couldn't hang around them.
Speaker 1:So, uh, that is the fox sports news, which was the explosive news of yesterday. Joy taylor out as espn I mean not espn. Fox sports analyst alcho is gone, charlie dixon is gone, skip bayless is gone. Fox has literally clean house because fox was starting to stand for Freak Off X. That was about to be With the Fox initials. Fox was starting to stand for Freak Off X and they had to change that shit. So shout out to Fox for doing something.
Speaker 1:Y'all took a little bit too long. Y'all really could have made this, could have actually made these adjustments and these firings a long time ago, because, as you can see on the timeline as we went over this article, this shit been going on for a long ass time. Yeah Joy, yeah Joy. The worst. You got this foreign lady who just trying to make, make her money, make her ends meet and take care of her kid, and she going through all this. And joy taylor is worse than the dudes because you actually know what the hell she going on, what, what she going through, and instead of helping her out, you told her to get over it and basically told her to start sleeping with the man in so many words. So joy, taylor, you got exactly what you, what you deserve, uh.
Speaker 1:So just to recap, y'all, we got good news as far as everybody. Y'all don't have to worry about your chris brown tickets. We got to the bottom of that. Although he has to have a, uh, a uk address, he is free to leave, especially, uh, as far as far as what they're saying for the tour. So if you do have chris brown tickets on for any anywhere else, don't fret, you'll be all right. Uh, diddy news has slowed down. I haven't heard much. So, no, diddy news is good news. I guess we don't have to hear about semen filled garments flying across the room and itty bitty tootsie rolls being pulled out with reckless abandon. That's always a good thing.
