NBA weddings, Sophie Cunningham’s right-wing grift, Gianni Infantino’s failed plan to sell parts of FIFA, and Aaron Rodgers is back on his high horse

Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to be joined by Coach Jackie, the content creator and host of the new podcast “Is She Game?” The gals talk to Jackie about how she became an internet sensation and where she comes from, the WNBA Finals between the Dream and the Valkyries, Golden State head coach Natalie Nakase’s intense practice strategy, the importance of investing in women’s sports (it’s just good business!), a wild story in international cricket, and much more!

Madeline and Charlotte are back with another deep dive into a very famous athlete’s Instagram — this time, it’s LeBron James. LeBron is about to kick off his 24th season in the NBA, when the Sixers face the Knicks, and the gals have a feeling that he may be subtly crashing out on the internet. Madeline has been taking screenshots of LeBron’s Instagram Story posts since he announced he was joining the Sixers in July. He’s been posting up to 16 quote cards a day, seemingly of AI text. After an overview of LeBron’s career and history on social media, the gals get into their theories about how he’s facing his own mortality, his family, what happens when athletes retire, and why they think LeBron is really going through it.

Madeline and Charlotte are back with another episode about one of SGS’s main characters, Mr. Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr. A new book just came out by Lars Anderson called Brady: An American Story and the Price of Greatness. The gals read the book and invited Jennifer Wilson, a staff writer at The New Yorker, to join them on the show, since she reviewed it. Madeline and Charlotte first talk about how the book backs up all their theories about what Tom has been going through recently via his social media. Then, the gals talk to Jennifer about what “the price of greatness” really means, missing political context in the story, the framing of his marriage to Gisele Bündchen, and who, at his core, the book reveals Tom to be.

Madeline and Charlotte are back with a jam-packed episode! First up: NFL updates — Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and his coach Mike McCarthy got into it on the field, and Aaron won’t stop talking about his “pregnant wife.” Former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin spent 12 years building a Minecraft house, so there’s that. The coverage around Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, who was accused of sexual assault by 27 women, was shameful. Victor Wembenyama said that he will not be doing any gambling ads, and LeBron is using the Fanatics corporate helicopter to commute from Philly to New York City. And finally, the big story today: the unfortunate series of events that are going on surrounding the Indiana Fever and their players and fanbase. Kelsey Mitchell gave an exit interview in which she said it’s hard playing when Fever fans don’t like you, and that it can be hard to be on Caitlin Clark’s team. The Fever’s response was…not great, and a bunch of former players are speaking out. The gals break it all down.

Madeline is off today, so Charlotte is back with dear friend of the show Jessica Smetana to give you all the gossip you need for the WNBA playoffs! First up: Fever-Aces. The series is tied 1-1 after Caitlin Clark went off for 27 points on Tuesday night — but will the interaction Aja Wilson had with a fan fuel Las Vegas to a win in Game 3? Then, a quick tangent to talk about the senate hearing where a Republican confused the Atlanta Hawks with the Iowa Hawkeyes. Plus, some fun facts about the Fever head coach Steph White and a dissection of WNBA head coach style. The No. 8-seed Liberty swept the No.1-seed Lynx — did Minnesota’s vibes just run out? Where was star Olivia Miles? Charlotte reveals some fun facts about Minnesota head coach Cheryl Reeve and her wife, and the gals talk about whether Lynx star Napheesa Collier will resign. Wings star Paige Bueckers and soccer star Megan Rapinoe had a strange interaction before the Wings played the Valkyries, Jess loves the Mystics because of Sonia Citron, and the Dream are vibing. Finally, Jess talks about her beloved Chicago Sky.
