The explosion of women’s basketball over the last few years has pulled plenty of new names – and teams – into the national conversation. Among them? USC and UCLA women’s basketball teams, two programs that have spent decades living in the shadow of past legacies, to say nothing of LA’s true love, the Lakers. But now they are playing to sold out crowds with household names like JuJu Watkins and Lauren Betts making all of their games must-see TV. And all of that drama is just setting the stage for an epic clash between the two top 10 teams on Thursday. So today, Paolo Uggetti joins the show to tell us how these teams got here, where they are going, and why loving women’s hoops is the new normal in LA. Learn more about your ad choices.

The American football season may now be over, but the drama in Europe’s club football season, aka soccer, is just heating up. Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City squad has been England’s most dominant club, with six home league trophies in the past seven years and a Champions League title in 2023. But this year’s campaign has been a struggle, as they sit five spots back in the English Premier League and barely qualified for the Champions League playoff. And now, having drawn defending champions Real Madrid in their first playoff matchup, things won’t get any easier. So with the two teams playing the first of two legs on Tuesday, Luis Miguel Echegaray tells Clinton Yates what to watch for in yet another clash between these two storied clubs. Will City’s recent $223 million spending spree help them right the ship? Can Real Madrid overcome their own crucial injuries? Has Kylian Mbappé finally found his groove in Madrid? Plus, a look at how this tournament is a crucial part of World Cup 2026 preparation for Christian Pulisic and other American players.

Better at running back and wide receiver than the Kansas City Chiefs. But the Chiefs still had Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid. So the Chiefs were still dangerous. Well that proved to not be anywhere near enough, as the Eagles cruised to a 40-22 win on Sunday, claiming the franchises’ second ever Super Bowl victory. So today Ben Solak and Michele Steele breakdown what went exceptionally right for the Eagles, and immensely wrong for the Chiefs in the NFL’s final game of the season. And take a look at what comes next, for a Chiefs team that heads into the offseason, with more questions than we expected. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
