Aly Wagner, lead analyst for Fox’s broadcast of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup and co-chair of Bay FC, joins us to talk about her career progression from winning gold medals for the U.S. Women’s National Team to announcing the games to co-founding a National Women’s Soccer League expansion franchise.
We ask her about her trailblazing path as the first woman to announce a Men’s World Cup game, and how she’s applied the lessons she learned playing soccer at the highest level to her post-playing career both in the broadcast booth and now building a professional sports team with global growth ambitions. Aly’s fearlessness and lifelong love for the game of soccer drives it all on this episode of It’s Not Magic.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
