    Dianna Russini resigned over Mike Vrabel situation, Bill and Jordon at Savannah Bananas and Michael Malone at UNC, Caleb Williams with Kardashians at Coachella, WNBA free agency

    2026-04-16 | 42 mins.
    Madeline and Charlotte are back with some updates: After photos leaked of NFL insider Dianna Russini holding hands with Patriots head coach, Mike Vrabel, Russini resigned from The Athletic. The gals talk about how male insiders in this industry cross ethical lines constantly and are not held to the same scrutiny and don’t suffer the same consequences. Plus: What’s going on with Mike Vrabel and the Patriots?

    UNC football head coach Bill Belichick and his girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, attended a Savannah Bananas game. Speaking of UNC, former Denver Nuggets Michael Malone is the new head basketball coach, and his daughter is also a volleyball player at the school. Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson got married to Kelsey Kay Holmer — were the flowers compressed? Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was spotted at Coachella with Kendall and Kylie Jenner, which is sports.

    WNBA free agency is in full swing and the gals have updates about Azzi Fudd, Satou Sabally, A’ja Wilson, and some damning stuff about the Chicago Sky. Amazon had “technical difficulties” during the very end of the very close, over time Hornets-Heat NBA play-in tournament game. Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves are out “indefinitely” for the Lakers with injuries, and Doc Rivers is out as the Bucks coach.

    When it comes to Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel-gate, everybody is missing the point

    2026-04-14 | 1h 3 mins.
    Madeline and Charlotte are back after a short break last week to tackle the story everyone is talking about: The photos of NFL insider Dianna Russini and Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel. The gals talk about the public relations nature of the situation, the role that “insider” reporters play in sports, and the bigger picture of the media landscape that people need to consider when talking about the situation.

    First, a few items about the WNBA Draft (more on that on Thursday), because former UConn teammates Azzi Fudd and Paige Bueckers were reunited on the Dallas Wings and…are they still dating? Rory McIlroy won the Masters for the second year in a row, and now he has to come up with a whole new menu for the special dinner. Plus: the Artemis II astronauts are the GOAT sports figures of our time.

    Geno Auriemma's non-apology to Dawn Staley, Chicago fumbles Angel Reese, Tiger Woods goes to Swiss rehab?, and a shocking new update to the athlete wedding complex

    2026-04-07 | 54 mins.
    Madeline and Charlotte are back with another episode — the only one for this week because they are taking a tiny break! First, a few March Madness updates: UCLA won the women’s tournament and the Michigan men beat UConn with five transfers. Geno Auriemma went after Dawn Staley and the apology he issued was…not great!

    The Masters starts on Thursday and golfer Jason Day is making waves with his Malbon outfit, which involves birds and fish (complimentary). Plus: Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler’s nine-day-old son, and more. Tiger Woods is going to rehab in Switzerland? Bills quarterback Josh Allen and his wife, actress Hailee Steinfeld, had their baby and went to Seahawks Quarterback Sam Darnold’s wedding. Gracie Hunt (daughter of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt) had a compressed flower engagement that exposed a new problem in the athlete wedding industrial complex: votives. Track star Noah Lyles got married to Junelle Bromfield, a Jamaican track and field athlete, at the same place NBA star Kemba Walker got married.

    Angel Reese is being traded from the Chicago Sky to the Atlanta Dream, which is great for Atlanta and stupid for Chicago. Italy didn’t make their third-straight World Cup, Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken missed the NFL coach’s photo because he was getting his haircut for the photo, and Lakers star Luka Doncic is going to Spain to deal with an injury.

    Morgan Riddle on changing the world of tennis, embracing the term WAG, why she doesn’t often work with Taylor Fritz, and living in a “prison of perception”

    2026-04-02 | 42 mins.
    Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to welcome Morgan Riddle to the show! The tennis influencer, content creator, co-founder of The 400 Club, and girlfriend of tennis star Taylor Fritz joins the gals for a wide-ranging conversation about where she came from, how she conquered the tennis world, and where she’s going next.

    They chat about how Morgan grew up going to hockey games in Minnesota, wore heels to high school, went to Wagner College, and then moved to LA, where she met Taylor. She talks about the first time she went viral, why she quit her job to become a full-time influencer, why she and Taylor deliberately don’t work together, and her relationship with her stylist who she met when she was 13. Morgan also describes the process of choosing what she wears to matches, why she decides to speak out against injustice on social media, and how she’s seen the tennis world dress differently since she started going on tour. She also talks about the worst sporting event experience she ever had and which sports she’d love to go to more often.

    Then Morgan talks about The 400 Club, the company of which she’s a co-founder. She wants to give women places that feel safe to watch sports and help brands understand how to reach female fans in ways they haven’t thought of before.

    Tiger Woods’ DUI and car crash, is F1’s Max Verstappen retiring?, why the Chiefs should sign Taylor Swift, and March Madness madness!

    2026-03-31 | 48 mins.
    Madeline and Charlotte are back with a very loopy episode of The Sports Gossip Show! They recorded this episode on Monday because there is a very special episode coming on Thursday that they had to film on Tuesday.

    First, quick Joe Burrow update. Then: Ilia Malinin won a third world championship title! Max Verstappen is considering retiring from F1 because he isn’t having fun at work. The AFCON drama continued when Senegal’s players paraded the Africa Cup of Nations trophy in front of tons of fans after the Confederation of African Football decided that Morocco won the championship. Even though they didn’t?

    March Madness — the Final Fours are set for men and women, and there was a totally insane end to the men’s Duke-UConn game. Tiger Woods was arrested for a DUI after yet another car crash, and it’s all just pretty sad. The Connecticut Sun are moving back to Houston to become the Rockets, even though a bunch of other markets tried to buy the team. Toronto Tempo head coach Sandy Brondello hired her husband, Olaf Lange, again. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce attended iHeartRadio Music Awards, and the Chiefs should sign her. Tom Brady can’t stop trying to come out of retirement.
