Whether you’re a die-hard fan who has the standings of multiple leagues memorized, or someone who really does think that Taylor Swift put Travis Kelce on the map, join us Madeline Hill and Charlotte Wilder, as we watch sports with one eye on the game and one eye on the personal life section of athletes’ Wikipedia pages.sportsgossipshow.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to welcome back Netflix’s first-ever live host, Elle Duncan, to the Sports Gossip Show!Elle joins the gals to talk about the WNBA on the heels of one of the most exciting and messy All-Star weekends ever. Dijonai Carrington accused her ex-girlfriend NaLyssa Smith of cheating on her, Paige Bueckers was living her best life, President Obama welcomed the All-Stars to Chicago, the StudBudz livestream featured a moment from Jonquel Jones that is being taken out of context, and much more. Elle and the gals also talk about Sophie Cunningham’s recent anti-trans comments, about the discourse surrounding Caitlin Clark and what her team needs to do to quiet the noise, about how the Valkyries and head coach Natalie Nakase are the success story of all expansion teams, about A’ja Wilson’s dominance, Napheesa Collier’s return, and much, much more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Madeline and Charlotte are back! First up, a few wedding athletes to discuss. The tennis player Tommy Paul married the influencer Paige Lorenze at…the Great Gatsby house? The WNBA’s Megan Gustafson married David DiLeo, and their dog and her former coach stole the show. Then, the main event: a deep dive into the saga of Aaron Rodgers’ family estrangement. He allegedly hasn’t spoken to his family in years, and there has been a lot of public back-and-forth between him and his parents and brothers. Now, it seems like he’s starting to mend fences. But let’s be honest: You never know with this guy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Madeline and Charlotte are back with their final recap of the World Cup! What a wonderful five weeks it’s been, capped off by a great Spanish victory. The first-ever half-time show was pretty weird, and Madonna, Justin Bieber, Shakira, BTS, and Coldplay should’ve just played the hits, but at least the Muppets were there. Plus: Trump talked trash about everyone he had to stand next to on stage, including the Spanish Men’s National Team. Then, the main event: Tom Brady is once again crashing out online and in real life. The gals talk about his recent feud with Logan Paul, which seems to be laying the groundwork for a WWE match. He is also deeply involved with CardVault by Tom Brady, and a series of other strange brand deals that have a lot of people questioning what he’s up to. The gals think they cracked the code. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Madeline and Charlotte are back with dear friend of the show, senior NBA reporter/writer Fred Katz! The gals talk to Fred about the biggest stories in the NBA from Summer League and free agency. First up: Mitchell Robinson was traded from the Knicks to the Celtics, and he is now trolling both Celtics fans and his former teammates. Fred describes Mitch’s persona and tells behind-the-scenes stories about him (including some insights from his forthcoming book about the Knicks!) and everyone spends a surprising amount of time talking about fonts. Then, the punch heard round the NBA! Bam Adabayo punched his former teammate Tyler Herro in the face at 9am at Summer League in Las Vegas — is it because Tyler Herro “doesn’t believe in history” or anything that happened before 1950? And, finally, what is the angle that LeBron James’s camp is trying to spin with the Sixers talk? Is it real? Or is he just going to Golden State? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Madeline and Charlotte are back! First, they talk about the lawsuit that uncovered a video Phillies star Bryce Harper made for a FanDuel customer — and Harper’s PR response. Then, the gals dive into World Cup drama. First, the response to racist remarks by Spain’s former prime minister. Then, they talk about France vs. Spain, and why the US men’s soccer program needs to learn from those countries. Then, a discussion about the controversial calls that led to England and Argentina making it to the semi-finals (involves tin-foil hat theories). The gals also discuss England star Jude Bellingham and his coach, and decide that VAR is the LinkedIn of sports. Finally, the gals talk about Argentina, because the country’s soccer federation is at the center of an FBI investigation in South Florida. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Madeline and Charlotte are back with a jam-packed episode. First, some updates about the World Cup. Then, a deep dive into the lore of Norway’s star player, Erling Haaland, from his Snapchat and YouTube vlogs, to his shopping trips in Dallas for cowboy hats, to his Birkin bags, to his cool soccer-playing girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen. Then, an update on some compressed flowers to debate: Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and Brooklyn Adams’ engagement, and Falcons wide receiver Drake London and Sofia Rose Gabay’s engagement. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Madeline and Charlotte are back with a Tayvis Wedding Extravaganza! But first: The United States dabbled in FIFA corruption, which means America is officially a soccer country. Donald Trump called FIFA president, Gianni Infantino, and got Flo Balogun’s red card un-suspended (the gals recorded this before the game last night, but they did have a feeling it wouldn’t go well). They also talk about Norway’s Erling Haaland, the great Messi, and who will win it all. Then it’s Tayvis time! The gals talk about the sportiest guests at the wedding, from Mike Vrabel, to Tom Brady, to Dean Blandino — and if you don’t know who Dean Blandino is, keep listening. The gals also discuss the business of Taylor Swift, the logistics of a wedding like this, Lena Dunham’s football speech, and much, much more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Madeline and Charlotte are back with an episode about all the glimpses they’ve caught so far surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding. But first, a few things! Serena Williams reportedly injured her knee during her Wimbledon singles match and is doubtful to play doubles with her sister, Venus. World Cupdate: Mexico made history and won the team’s first knockout match in 40 years when they beat Ecuador 2-0. Then: LeBron is leaving the Lakers! He’s not retiring and he’ll play somewhere else. Will that be the Golden State Warriors with Steph Curry and Draymond Green? The Cleveland Cavaliers? No one knows yet. He did, however, get his son paid by LA before he bounced. And finally: Taylor and Travis’s wedding! Taylor’s team applied for a street activity permit from July 2nd -July 4th near MSG — is this actually happening? The gals discuss everything we know so far and give their take on why the rollout of info could actually be a brilliant meta-commentary on Taylor’s public image to date. Hosted on Acast.
