"We're gonna get in trouble": Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes reveal comical reason behind scarce female guests on 'All The Smoke' podcast

Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes have become two of the most popular podcasters today. The former NBA players are co-hosts of “All The Smoke,” one of the most popular shows that feature guests coming from different backgrounds. Despite the varied capacities of those they invite to the show, most of them have been mainly male.

The show’s most recent episode had Kelsey Plum, resulting in one of the rare instances Jackson and Barnes had a female guest. At the start of their conversation, the Las Vegas Aces star revealed that she met her husband Darren Waller on the NFL player’s podcast.

Matt Barnes quickly reacted to the info provided by Plum:

“Probably why we keep women off our show.”

Stephen Jackson added:

“We’re gonna get in trouble!”

For at least over a year, Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes have only had three female guests on their podcast. Kelsey Plum, Sheryl Swoopes who was with another guest, Boston Celtics legend Paul Pierce and Kiesha Nix of the LA Lakers.

Most of those who sit with Jackson are current or former athletes, mostly NBA players, artists and producers. For some reason, they have mostly been male.

Kelsey Plum opened up that she never wanted to date a professional athlete nor did she want to. But, she found her comfort zone with the New York Giants tight end. It all began when she and Waller had their moments in the football player’s podcast.

Plum also had things to discuss, including teammate Chelsea Gray’s performance this season:

“The Point God. I think the way Chelsea [Gray] plays is disrespectful…the audacity. She tried to throw one pass behind somebody’s head last night in LA and it got tipped. Maybe if it had been two inches different, it would have been a layup.”
