In this inaugural episode, we dive headfirst into the world of women’s basketball, a realm that's blossomed in popularity thanks to rising stars like Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese—the phenomena now dubbed the "Caitlin Clark effect" and the "Angel Reese effect." Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just tuning in as a newcomer, come along as we explore the game and its culture beyond the court.
Join our host, a lifelong enthusiast who has been rooting for the WNBA since its inception in 1997, as she recalls her earliest memories of supporting the New York Liberty and UConn basketball. From reminiscing about the dominance of Pat Summitt's Tennessee teams to discussing the challenges of following women's games in the past, this episode is filled with nostalgia and insights that will illuminate the rich history of women’s basketball.
Together, we’ll celebrate the incredible women who have shaped the sport, share fun facts, historical highlights, and even peek into the personal lives of players who inspire fans worldwide. Get ready for engaging conversations, expert insights, and a dash of humor as we embark on this exciting journey through the game that means so much to us.
