Met Gala Monday showed us just how much influence athletes have on culture. From Simone Biles and Angel Reese serving on the host committee to even the least fashion-forward (hi, Joe Burrow) showing up to the carpet, the intersection of sport and fashion is hard to ignore. And we’re here for it. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:  A recap of Blake and Caroline’s trip to Tampa covering DICKS Varsity Team debut ...

As women athletes show up more and more in the zeitgeist, so do their husbands and boyfriends. But Blake and Caroline couldn’t help but wonder: do HABs get the same treatment as WAGs? Plus, 2 Dope Queens host and comedian Phoebe Robinson answers the question: should you date someone in your run club? In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:  How Shadeur Sanders failed to nepo-baby his way through the NFL draft  ...

Swifties just about lost it when the organizer of a Kentucky Derby gala announced plans of a potential Taylor tour. In other “barely sports” news, Blake explains why the baddies are taking over the Knicks courtside seats, and what to make of the Stanley Cup exuding single girl energy on Instagram. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:  Why Blake is putting down the mic to pursue an athletic career (it’s not a goodbye...

Caroline and Blake attended the WNBA draft last night and have many thoughts. While Blake  beefed with the Dallas Wings mascot, a controversial celeb gave a nod to Caroline. Plus, we get an inside look at the orange carpet from content creator Aliyah Funschelle, who joins us in the studio to chat about exclusive interviews with athletes (and Paige Buecker’s after party with Nike).  In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:...

Paige Bueckers and co. brought UCONN’s women basketball to its first March Madness win in almost a decade. After tearful celebrations, Coach Geno Auriemma shared some choice words for the NCAA. Something to the tune of “you don’t care about student athletes”, especially the women.  In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: The $2.8 billion NCAA settlement that’ll potentially fund Caroline’s wedding The one thing connect...

LeBron is not holding back anymore on all his foes. Caroline and Blake take a chance to react to their favorite details from his latest ESPN interview. Meanwhile, March Madness is (mostly) a snoozefest and we know why. Turns out it has something to do with…chalk?  In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: The controversial Torpedo bat that has the Yankees playing better than ever  The Women’s Final Four and Paige Buecke...

Blake and Caroline predicted a Trinity Rodman and Ben Shelton hard launch, but Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump? Not on our bingo cards. Several couples made their relationships IG official this week, and there might be a potential power couple budding between JuJu Watkins and Jayden Daniels. That is, unless Jayden’s mom can help it.   In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Which famous athlete took credit for connecting...

Before Simone and Suni came Shawn Johnson, the Olympic gold medalist who shot to fame during the Olympics 17 years ago. Yup, we feel old too. Shawn joins Blake and Caroline in the studio to talk about fans literally crawling under bathroom stalls to get her autograph, why she couldn’t go back to high school, and her biggest piece of advice to teenaged athletes on the brink of stardom. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cov...

Last week Blake and Caroline wondered which sports league would take the lead on supporting players’ families, and the Women’s Tennis Association said “allow me.” The WTA clinched a historic win for its players who are now eligible for 12-months of maternity leave, grants for fertility treatment, and more. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Yay or nay: the PDA between Kylie and Timothée Chalamet  Why LeBron gave li...

Commentators nationwide took a hard look in the mirror when LeBron called out the “weird energy” in sports media, where coverage of NBA players is nothing but negative. Seattle Storm player Lexie Brown joins us in the studio to chat about how that negativity led her to delete her Twitter, how she trained her brain to always see the positive, and why she finally took her own mental health seriously, thanks in part to a partnership w...

It’s 2025, so why do we have to tell people to stop stalking women in sports? On the heels of tennis player Emma Raducanu and track star Gabby Thomas sharing their stalking stories, Blake and Caroline discuss why women athletes are at higher risk for harassment, the role social media plays, and how leagues can do better to protect them.  In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Blake and Caroline’s strong feelings about...

The NBA hoped to get fans to care about the All Star Game this year and…it seriously backfired. After only 42 minutes of game time during the 3-hour broadcast, fans were left scratching their heads at the new format, the constant stoppages, and Kevin Hart’s (bad) jokes. Blake and Caroline look to the NHL’s 4 Nations for inspiration on how the ballers can make next year better.  In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: W...

While the actual Super Bowl game might’ve been boring, Blake and Caroline found plenty to talk about: like Jalen Hurts winning the MVP, Travis Kelce’s post-game walk of shame, and whether or not the Eagles are poised to become a dynasty. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Why this was a Super Bowl for haters of all kinds  Decoding Kendrick’s halftime performance  How many times Taylor Swift was shown during the ...

It’s Super Bowl week, but the drama in the sports world never stops.

After covering big headlines of the week, Caroline and Blake share Super Bowl rituals plus what they’ve got their eye on as the big game approaches. In this...

It’s official - the Chiefs and Eagles are Super Bowl-bound.

While many NFL fans were swapping conspiracy theories about refs helping the Chiefs get a win, Taylor Swift and Caitlin Clark cozied up in their private skybox. Don’t worry, Taylor didn’t give anything for TikTok lip-readers to call her on as she whispered secrets to her new bestie. Blake and Caroline discuss what she might’ve been saying in the weekend's most widely memed moment. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: ...

Travis Kelce might’ve spilled the beans on when Swifties can expect “Reputation: Taylor’s Version” during his recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show.

Joe Burrow is the latest high-profile NFL player whose home was burglarized this season. But what should’ve been a good old fashioned burglary exploded when the internet found out that Olivia Ponton made a 911 call reporting the incident, not to be confused with Olivia Holzmacher, his college sweetheart. Caroline and Blake wonder whether JB and OG Olivia split up (his pre-season bleach job is damning evidence) and dive into a Reddi...
