In NCAA Basketball, LSU hands Texas their first loss of the season, and we’re breaking down the two-way dominance of Mikaylah Williams on both ends of the floor. Unrivaled is officially back, and Chelsea Gray is once again proving why she’s the Point Gawd. Plus, we take a deep dive into U.S. Figure Skating and get hyped for gold-medal contenders Amber Glenn, Alysa Liu, and Isabeau Levito with the 2026 Olympics right around the corner.

We are coming to the cottage because Heated Rivalry has officially taken over our lives. Yes, this is a women’s sports podcast, but when a romance book becomes a full-blown cultural phenomenon, we have no choice but to talk about Heated Rivalry. From there, we dream up the women’s sports stories we need to see adapted for the big screen (Hollywood, are you listening?).

Then it’s back to the action. We break down Kentucky’s statement win over the LSU Tigers, handing LSU their first loss of the season on a buzzer beater. Plus, we hit the ice to recap the Seattle Torrent’s thrilling shootout victory over the Toronto Sceptres because women’s hockey drama always delivers.

Romance novels, buzzer-beaters, and shootout chaos? This episode is a must listen.

Happy New Year’s Eve! We’re closing out the year with Part 2 of the Best of Women’s Sports Weekly, a greatest-hits chaos compilation packed with women’s sports, pop culture, and just the right amount of nonsense.

From Caitlin Clark’s astrological sign to Matthew McConaughey, this episode is a highlight-reel of everything we do best. We take you inside Unrivaled practice, relive peak March Madness when TCU stunned Notre Dame in the Sweet 16, and tackle big-picture debates like whether women can really have it all.

Along the way, things get aggressively New Jersey, unexpectedly educational with fat bears, and delightfully unhinged with press conference reactions to Cathy Engelbert, plus some truly unforgettable bathroom humor.

Women’s basketball, women’s sports culture, hot takes, and end-of-year laughs all in one place. You don’t want to miss this one.

It’s the holiday season, and we’re feeling nostalgic. So we're unwrapping our favorite moments from the past year in this festive highlight reel episode. From the chaos of the Beanpot Championship to breaking down new NWSL team names, plus an honest reckoning with Diana Taurasi’s eternal hold on all of us, nothing is off the table (including how we want to die).

We also revisit some of our favorite interviews, featuring Ryan Ruocco, Amelia and Kelsey from Let the Girls Play! and Ali Cecconi. There were simply too many iconic moments to fit into one episode, so Part 2 drops next week.

Hit play, get cozy, and celebrate the year with us.

Texas A&M shocks Nebraska in the Elite Eight of the NCAA Volleyball Tournament, snapping the Cornhuskers’ undefeated season and ending their title hopes in stunning fashion. A true team effort toppled one of the most dominant volleyball programs in the country.

Plus, the latest WNBA CBA proposal raises big questions about pay equity in women’s basketball. Why does fair pay still come with strings attached and more work? With the WNBA season looming, will the league and players actually reach a new collective bargaining agreement in time?

And in NWSL news, the Washington Spirit are pulling out all the stops to keep superstar Trinity Rodman stateside. But the league isn’t thrilled with the “spirit” of the deal. Is a new “High Impact Player” designation enough to prevent a move overseas?

From college volleyball chaos to pro women’s sports power plays, we break it all down. Tune in!

Texas cashed in big at the Players Era Championship, literally, but the real jackpot was Rori Harmon’s clutch game-winner to knock off South Carolina and shake up the national rankings. UCLA may have stumbled in Vegas, but the Bruins bounced back with a statement win over Tennessee. On the footy international stage, the USWNT wrapped up 2025 in style with two dominant victories over Italy under head coach Emma Hayes. We love where the USWNT is headed.
