Summary

Sylvia and her 14-year-old daughter, Madeleine, introduce “Double Drivel,” a mother-daughter WNBA podcast for longtime and new fans that avoids gatekeeping, isn’t expert analysis, and rejects hate while prioritizing accuracy.

They explain the name as a play on “double dribble” and “drivel,” while respecting the league’s history and growth. Sylvia traces her basketball fandom from Iowa men’s teams in the late ’80s to the WNBA via Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever; Madeleine became a Dallas Wings fan through Paige Bueckers.

Living in San Diego, they attend Sparks games and plan trips to Portland and Indianapolis to see the Wings and the Fever this season. They discuss offseason moves (Fever re-signing Kelsey Mitchell, Aliyah Boston extension, adding Mo Billings and drafting Raven Johnson; Wings additions including Alanna Smith and Jessica Shepard) and other team changes, offer early finals picks, share what they’re excited for, and end with a positive “Swish List” segment.
