    Strawberries, Sneakers & Scandals: The Traditions That Define Wimbledon (July 2025) Jun 25, 2026
    Show notes

    Why does Wimbledon still require all-white outfits? Why do fans queue overnight just for a chance to buy tickets? And what do strawberries and cream have to do with elite tennis? In this episode of Sportly, host Kavitha Davidson serves up the fascinating traditions that make Wimbledon unlike any other Grand Slam.

    From Roger Federer’s orange soles to Serena Williams’ red shorts, this episode dives into the dress code controversies, the history of strawberries, and the passion behind the iconic Wimbledon queue. Kavitha also explores how this storied tournament is slowly evolving on its own terms.

    Knicks Special: How All of America Was Rooting for New York Jun 18, 2026
    Show notes

    The Knicks won the NBA championship for the first time since 1973, and so Kavitha Davidson threw out our production schedule. In this special episode, she recaps her chaotic week: attending games, doing live broadcast commentary for New York Post Sports, flying to LA on no sleep, and surviving two straight months of playoff emotions.

    But beyond the exhaustion and euphoria, she makes a bigger point — this Knicks team is genuinely, uncommonly likable. From the trolling chemistry between Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart, who have a podcast together, to players who aren't afraid to be vulnerable, speak up, and show up for each other on and off the court. Kavitha breaks down why this group of men made not just New York, but the whole country, want to root for them. Recorded the day before the ticker-tape parade, and yes, she's already planning to sleep for a month.

    FIFA Series: Who Gets Rich When the World Cup Comes to Town? Jun 11, 2026
    Show notes

    The FIFA World Cup 2026 is here, and with it comes the familiar promise: billions in economic activity, a tourism boom, and a windfall for host cities across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. But according to Jules Boykoff, professor of politics at Pacific University, former U.S. U-23 national team player, and one of the leading scholars on the politics of mega events, those promises have almost never held up. In this episode, we dig into who actually profits when FIFA comes to town, and who gets left with the bill.

    From skyrocketing ticket prices and $100 train rides to MetLife Stadium, to the way FIFA's contracts have been quietly rewritten since 2010 to funnel revenue away from host cities and into FIFA's own coffers, Boykoff pulls no punches. We also get into the broader political stakes of hosting the World Cup under the current U.S. administration, the threat to immigrant communities, FIFA's coziness with power, and whether it's still possible to love the beautiful game while holding its governing body accountable.

    Show notes

    This week on Sportly, Kavitha Davidson sits down with acclaimed political sports writer Dave Zirin for a no-holds-barred conversation about the intersection of sports, politics, and society. They discuss the idea of “dual realities” in media and how race, gender, and representation are often portrayed in sports narratives.

    The episode takes a closer look at the controversial trend of “sportswashing,” from Saudi Arabia’s massive investments to the NBA’s growing presence in the UAE. Zirin doesn’t hold back as he unpacks the complexities and contradictions of global sports institutions, shedding light on how these issues impact fans and athletes alike.

    If you’ve ever wondered what’s really going on behind the scenes of major sports events, this is the episode for you!

    Jason Belmonte Was Born to Bowl But Is He the Greatest of All Time? May 20, 2026
    Show notes

    Jason Belmonte or "Belmo" is widely considered one of the greatest bowlers in the history of the sport. However, if you ask him, he's not done yet. With 15 major championships and records that may never be broken, he is methodically chasing a legacy that would put the debate to rest once and for all.

    In this conversation, Kavitha talks to Belmo about the invisible playing field that makes professional bowling so brutally unforgiving, what it felt like to chase history in real time, life on a grinding tour that doesn't get nearly enough respect, and what he still has left to prove.

    How Art But Make It Sports Matches Viral Sports Moments to Fine Art May 07, 2026
    Show notes

    The creator of "Art But Make It Sports", LJ Rader, is a lifelong sports professional who has worked for NBC Sports, won an Emmy, and spent nearly a decade at Sportradar, all while quietly teaching himself art history through museum visits, auction houses, and gallery trips.

    What started as a personal joke on his Instagram - pairing sports photos with fine art - became Art But Make It Sports, an account that now reaches hundreds of thousands of followers and has earned him the admiration of educators who use his posts to teach kids about art history. Oh, and a lot of accusations that he's using AI. He's not.

    In this episode, Kavitha sits down with LJ to talk about how he actually builds each post, from sourcing the right image to going frame by frame through game footage to find the perfect shot, how he navigates being a self-taught outsider in the notoriously siloed art world, why sports photography deserves to be treated as an art form in its own right, and what's next for him as he leaves his day job to go all in on FanFlare, a new sports data app built around women's volleyball.

    Who Gets to Be a Pilates Girl? (April 2025) Apr 30, 2026
    Show notes

    This is a re-run of Sportly's April 2025 episode: "Pilates Wasn't Always White - Here's What Changed "

    Pilates may be marketed as a path to wellness and elegance, but who is it really for?

    In this episode of Sportly, host Kavitha Davidson explores the complicated racial and cultural history of Pilates, from its roots in an internment camp to its modern-day status as the go-to fitness trend for affluent white women.

    Kavitha traces the hidden contributions of Black pioneers like Kathy Grant and the rise of inclusive movements like Black Girl Pilates. What does it mean when an exercise promising strength and balance becomes a symbol of exclusion? And how can we reclaim it for everyone?

    Why Baseball Might Be America's Most Spiritual Sport Apr 23, 2026
    Show notes

    What does faith have to do with baseball? More than you might think. "Baseball Beyond Belief" is a new documentary that explores the deep and often surprising connections between spirituality and America's favorite pastime. In this episode, Kavitha Davidson sits down with two of the people behind the film: director John Scheinfeld and Father Tom Gibbons. Together, they talk about what inspired the film, what it means to find the sacred inside a stadium, and why the rituals of baseball and religion might not be so different after all. Whether you're a devoted fan, a person of faith, or just someone who has ever felt something bigger than themselves in a packed ballpark, this is a conversation worth having.
