The Sports Gossip Show

Latest Episodes:

The craziest part of the Dodgers’ World Series win was the jewelry, Ja Morant’s suspension, Charles Leclerc’s compressed engagement, are the New England Patriots likeable? Nov 04, 2025

Show notes

Madeline and Charlotte are back after an exhilarating Game 7 of the World Series. The LA Dodgers are champions after a heartbreaking loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. The gals talk about Ernie Clement crying in the locker room, Kiké Hernandez trolling Drake, and, most importantly, Miguel Rojas’ Van Cleef & Arpels necklace.

F1 driver Charles Leclerc is engaged to Alexandra Malena Saint Mieux, and there’s a new category of compressed flowers: compressed petals. Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers is going to act in an Apple TV+ movie? Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant was suspended…again. Phoenix Suns player Jalen Green got a back tattoo of his girlfriend, Draya Michelle, and Celtics star Jaylen Brown’s hair rubbed off — but he’s leaning into it.

NFL Gossip: Robert Kraft and Cardi B sat next to each other at a Patriots game. Jordon Hudson is active on Instagram again. Actor Hailee Steinfeld, wife of Josh Allen, dressed up for Halloween…or did she? And, finally, lots of college football firings and hirings! LSU fired their athletic director, Scott Woodward, Auburn fired their head coach, Hugh Freeze, and former Penn State head coach James Franklin may be getting hired at Virginia Tech? Tens of millions of dollars in the balance, folks!

We keep getting asked about Pablo Torre’s Jordon Hudson reporting Oct 30, 2025

Show notes

Madeline and Charlotte are back with two very special visitors: themselves, as Saturday Night Live’s NPR hosts Margaret Jo McCullin (aka Ana Gasteyer) and Terry Rialto (aka Molly Shannon)! It’s a deliciously dishy episode.

The gals start with some World Series gossip, because the games between the Dodgers and Blue Jays have been electric (and involve country singer Brad Paisley). Also, a WNBA update about the collective bargaining agreement.

And, finally, the gals give their thoughts on Pablo Torre’s reporting about Jordon Hudson, UNC head coach Bill Belichick’s girlfriend.

Why it cost LSU $54 million to fire Brian Kelly, are Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson engaged?, unpacking the NBA gambling arrests, Tom Brady is online again Oct 28, 2025

Show notes

The gals are back with a particularly goofy one today, folks — it’s Charlotte’s turn to battle a migraine after Madeline’s flu game two weeks ago, so buckle up (also, they recorded this before that crazy, 18-inning World Series game, so stay tuned for baseball stuff on Thursday).

First, a few updates about the gals’ trips around the world. Then, a fantastic interview with college football expert Jessica Smetana about LSU’s $54 million firing of coach Brian Kelly, and why these college coaches keep getting fired for tens of millions of dollars.

A Bill and Jordon update—are they engaged??? And some WNBA updates — a new collective bargaining agreement isn’t looking likely by the October 31st deadline.

Then, the shock heard round the sports world last week, as Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups, Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier and former Cleveland Cavaliers assistant coach and basketball player Damon Jones (and more) were hit with federal charges of illegal sports gambling and poker rigging schemes allegedly backed by the Mafia. Whoah!

A few NFL items: The Steelers uniforms were hideous, Madison Beer and Justin Herbert sat courtside at a Lakers game and attended the Chargers’ Halloween party together, the Patriots rule, and Tom Brady was super online again last week!

Angie “Pumps” Sullivan from “I’ve Had It Podcast” on why Jerry Jones is the NFL’s Trump, wild parents in youth sports, and the Alabama coach who yelled “Roll Tide” doing the deed Oct 23, 2025

Show notes

Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to welcome Angie “Pumps” Sullivan to the show! Angie is the co-host of the political pop culture show “I’ve Had It Podcast” with Jennifer Welch, and also a huge sports fan. The gals loved talking to her about how sports are inherently political but can still bring people together.

Angie and the gals covered a lot of ground, including: how Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is the Donald Trump of the NFL, being liberal in Oklahoma, how Angie’s parents would trade off custody of her at Oklahoma football games, the pre-game prayers at Oklahoma City Thunder games, the drama between parents in youth sports, misogyny in sports, politics, and the judicial system, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and his all-female team, the mess of the Miami Dolphins, Oklahoma softball, why Baker Mayfield’s vibes are so good, why insecure men are actually bad for sports teams, Aaron Rodgers, and the Alabama coach who got fired before he could coach a game because he yelled “Roll Tide” while doing the deed at a party. Plus much, much more!

Thanks to Angie for her time — you don’t want to miss this one, folks!

NBA season preview: The Knicks star who loves breast milk, the ex-Thunder star who ate 20 fish heads, and why the Kawhi Leonard scandal has league execs plotting Oct 21, 2025

Show notes

Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to welcome The Athletic’s Fred Katz to the show. Fred is a senior NBA writer who loves to gab, and the gals really were not ready for the amount of information he dropped on them in the first ten minutes.

They start out talking about the Knicks — namely, why Josh Hart is living the dream of every seven-year-old who wants to be an NBA player. Plus: the vibes on that team, why Mitchell Robinson is such a character, and if New York can win it all this year. The Oklahoma City Thunder are coming off a title year, and Fred tells the gals about the time that former Thunder star Steven Adams ate 20 fish heads.

Is LeBron going to retire? Probably not! Are we idiots? Yes, according to Lakers head coach JJ Redick. Did Mavericks GM Nico Harrison dodge a bullet by drafting Cooper Flagg after letting Luka Doncic go to LA? Does Cooper have a ton of pressure on him? Is Spurs star Victor Wembanyama single-handedly saving reading? And, finally, how is the league responding to the allegations against Clippers owner Steve Ballmer and star Kawhi Leonard?

NFL Week 7 vibes-based predictions, James Franklin’s $50 million firing, Juju Watkins and Jayden Daniels dating?, Travis Kelce will be in Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour doc Oct 16, 2025

Show notes

Madeline has a migraine today, so this is her flu game, and the result is a particularly unhinged and fantastic episode if you ask Charlotte. First, an important announcement: the gals have decided on a name for their audience, and it is: THE SHAREHOLDERS!!! They love it and hope you do, too.

Then, NFL Week 7 vibes-based predictions are back, with discussion about the messy Miami Dolphins mixed in. USWNT and NWSL star Christen Press is retiring a year after her wife, Tobin Heath, hung up her cleats. Relationship updates: are Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels and USC basketball star Juju Watkins dating??? And quarterback Justin Herbert and Madison Beer kissed at the Chargers game.

In Tayvis news: The Eras Tour documentary will feature Travis Kelce. The gals haven’t talked about the WNBA Finals yet, so they discuss how the Aces swept the Mercury and talk about how generally amazing A’ja Wilson is. Plus: A WNBA collective bargaining agreement update.

Celtics head coach Joe Mazzula made Boston media members play the coaches. Penn State head coach James Franklin was fired, and Penn State owes him $50 million….or do they? South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley said she doesn’t think there will be a female NBA coach in her lifetime, and a tennis player who used kissing as his defense in an anti-doping case has been suspended for four years.

A deep dive into the Bill Belichick UNC trainwreck with Grace Raynor Oct 14, 2025

Show notes

Madeline and Charlotte are doing things a little differently this week — instead of the normal Tuesday episode, they’re bringing you a special deep dive today into the UNC football program coached by Bill Belichick.

Lots of reporting came out last week about the problems within the program, including a report from The Athletic, which college football reporter and UNC alum Grace Raynor contributed to.

The gals are thrilled to welcome Grace onto the show to talk about the rumors that Belichick will leave the program, the strange graphic the university put out, the cancelled Hulu documentary, the Jordon Hudson of it all, the arrogance of general manager Mike Lombardi, the vibes at UNC games, and why the name of Bill Belichick’s boat might be to blame for all of this.

The gals will be back with a regular gossip rundown episode on Thursday!

NHL’s WAG culture, why Brad Marchand’s team used to hate him, and Sidney Crosby’s hair advice with ESPN’s Emily Kaplan (plus our Buffalo trip and Bills game recap!) Oct 09, 2025

Show notes

ESPN’s NHL reporter Emily Kaplan joins Madeline and Charlotte to talk about the biggest and best storylines heading into the 2025-2026 hockey season that kicked off on Tuesday. Did you know that there are a ton of brothers playing in the league? That the players fight to defend each other? That Brad Marchand’s current team hated him before he joined it? That Sidney Crosby took a player to get his hair cut? That the NHL is like a family? That WAGs take their jackets very seriously?

If you’re looking to get into hockey, Emily’s fun stories and facts about the guys on the ice are a great place to start. The season kicked off on Tuesday, so there’s no better time to brush up on the narratives.

Plus: Madeline and Charlotte recap their trip to Buffalo, which included a trip to Niagara Falls, a fiasco at a restaurant where they tried to order wings, and a visit to SGS listener Christina’s amazing tailgate! Thank you to Christina and thank you to Buffalo! The gals will certainly be back.

LeBron James bamboozled us, Bill Belichick at UNC is an absolute trainwreck, WNBA work drama between Napheesa Collier and Cathy Englebert heats up Oct 07, 2025

Show notes

The gals are back from Buffalo, where they had a phenomenal time and watched Charlotte’s New England Patriots beat Madeline’s Buffalo Bills — full recap of the trip coming on Thursday!

Today, there are a few big stories to cover: NBA star LeBron James teased “The Second Decision,” and it ended up being an ad for Hennessy — the internet isn’t fun anymore!

The tension between the WNBA commissioner Cathy Englebert and star players, especially Napheesa Collier, reached an all-time high over the weekend and it doesn’t seem to be cooling down anytime soon.

The Patriots beat the Bills in a former-Bills player Stefon Diggs revenge game and a statement game for Pats quarterback Drake Maye.

UNC head coach Bill Belichick reportedly forbade UNC from posting about Maye, a UNC alum. Parents of UNC players spoke to the press anonymously and it doesn’t seem great down there!

The Chiefs’ vibes continue to be very off — Travis Kelce lost on Monday Night Football while Taylor Swift, his fiancee, promoted her album on Jimmy Fallon.

NFL RedZone host Scott Hanson on being the leader of group projects, getting rejected, the spirituality of sports, and how the NFL draft is like a stockholder meeting Oct 02, 2025

Show notes

Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to welcome Emmy award-winner Scott Hanson to the show for a very special conversation. Scott is the host of NFL RedZone, Gold Zone during the Olympics, and is in EA Sports’ Madden NFL. If you’re a football fan, he is the voice of your Sundays.

But first, the gals discuss the workplace drama in the WNBA. In her exit interview on Tuesday, Lynx star Napheesa Collier called out the league and the commissioner, Cathy Englebert, specifically. She came with receipts and the result was a masterclass in speaking truth to power, especially during the ongoing CBA negotiations. Your employer is not your friend!

Then it’s time for the gals’ conversation with Scott. They covered a lot of ground, including:

What Scott means to his fans, and how seriously he takes his job
Wanting to make sports more accessible
How he was rejected from his college program of choice and worked his butt off to get in
Why his habits as a child actually made him perfect for his RedZone job
The hope of rookie quarterbacks
Why sports are spiritual
Why the NFL draft is like a hopeful shareholder’s meeting
An incredible story about one of Tony Romo’s groomsmen

And much more! Thanks again to Scott, and you can find information about RedZone at nfl.com/redzone
