During one of the first episodes of the new Hanging With Sean Hannity podcast, Hannity and legendary ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith go after Golden State Governor Gavin Newsom.

“You know why I’m a Republican? Because you can’t screw up more than your buddy Gavin Newsom,” Hannity said. “I noticed he’s not coming on your show.”

“Not yet,” Stephen A. confirmed. “He certainly has not done that.”

“Guess why he’s not coming: because you laid out for him what you’re going to ask him. And guess what? He does not want to answer those questions. By the way — I won’t take s–t from him. I live rent-free in that man’s head. He can’t stop attacking me,” Hannity said.

“I’m going to say something that will get me in trouble, but I don’t care,” Stephen A. said. “I will defend you to the hilt against Gavin Newsom for one reason and one reason only. That debate that he had against Governor Ron DeSantis — you could not have been more fair.”

Hanging With Sean Hannity launches this week everywhere podcasts are available.
