Behind the Wheel: NASCAR with Rajah Caruth
This episode starts with the host recapping a Liberty vs. Connecticut Sun game and raving about the in-arena experience, especially Ellie the mascot, before sharing thoughts on the WNBA’s 30th season and how the Caitlin Clark “Cinderella shoe…is now off,” as fans see more of her on-court personality and the league’s competitiveness rises with limited roster spots. Then we meet NASCAR driver Rajah Caruth, who clears up the constant “Are you related to the other one?” question and explains how he got into racing through iRacing when money and access were real barriers. He breaks down why “racing is… the toughest barrier of entry” financially, how his first setup was “my school laptop and an $80 wheel,” and why it’s “not… plug and play” but a real entry point if you do the work. Listeners will walk away with a fresh, practical look at how mentorship, resourcefulness, and consistency can open doors in a sport with only “36 seats” at the top.

Craft & Comedy with Godfrey
This Naked Sports episode with Godfrey swings from hilarious to heavy in the best way. He shares his family’s story, born in Lincoln, Nebraska, because his parents fled the Biafran War, and how that immigrant grind shaped him. From there, he gets into why he’s a purist about craft, whether it’s comedy, boxing, or music, saying the common thread is “the love of the craft,” and reminding people it takes years to really get good. He also riffs on Jordan vs. LeBron, and goes all-in on music history, from Michael Jackson’s “Victory Tour” to the industry’s racism, and how Black artists built the culture in this country. The real takeaway is his no-filter honesty about America: “subtract by a hundred, and you’ll know what year you’re in; it’s 1926.” We tried to wrap and tease a part two, but the story unfolded, describing a wild early New York, living with Viola Davis and his life as a podcaster.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Unsigned Star in WNBA
This episode starts with the mystery of why WNBA vet and fan favorite Natasha “T Cloud” Cloud is still unsigned after the new CBA, free agency, and the draft—whether it’s money, age, locker-room narratives, or even whispers of being “quietly… blackballed” for her outspoken politics, including Palestine. The host reads Cloud’s posts that show faith and grit, “they can’t starve who God is feeding,” and says the situation “doesn’t add up.” Then the conversation turns serious with guest Tonya McKenzie, who reacts to public tributes after former Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax murdered his wife and died by suicide, arguing this isn’t just about mental health but domestic violence and how Black communities protect abusers. She says, “protecting the abuser is participation in the abuse,” and calls out how people defend perpetrators but ignore victims and kids. The episode closes with alarming femicide stats and a dedication to Dr. Serena Fairfax, urging listeners to speak up and stop enabling silence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Black Out Loud with Geoff Bennett
Today, Cari talks with PBS NewsHour co-anchor Geoff Bennett about his book “Black Out Loud” and why the ’90s felt like a once-in-a-lifetime run of Black TV—“how did all of these shows exist on the air at the same time?” He traces the history from minstrelsy and vaudeville to comics like Moms Mabley, Dick Gregory, Richard Pryor, and the Fox era that helped power “In Living Color,” “Martin,” “Living Single,” and more. Jeff explains the shift wasn’t just culture, it was business: networks later “pivot[ed] to whiter audiences,” and that helped end the boom. After listening to this episode, you’ll walk away understanding how comedy “lowers our defenses,” why representation changed real choices (like the “Maxine Shaw effect”), and why today we have “way more volume, but…less impact.” Connect @CariChampion @GeoffRBenett Read: Black Out Loud By Geoff Bennett Subscribe Cari Champion's YOUTUBE ChannelSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ignore The Noise with Laura Coates
This episode feels like a real check-in on what it takes to show up every day with purpose. Laura Coates walks Cari through her nonstop routine—up at 6 after getting home around 1:30 a.m., researching, doing CNN hits, writing fiction, parenting, then hosting her live 11 p.m. show. She explains why she left government work for TV: she felt “a muzzle” during officer-involved shootings. She wanted truth and justice to be accessible, saying “people had to know what the truth was” and “information… gives power.” She talks about being vulnerable on air, refusing to be performative, and protecting long-term trust: “I would never want… stating my opinion… to have a long-term consequence of no longer being a trusted source.” The only two opinions that Laura allows to lead are: “8-year-old Laura… and an 80-year-old Laura.” Connect @CariChampion @thelauracoates Subscribe Cari Champion's YOUTUBE ChannelSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Now Days" with Caroline Marks
Cari introduces an interview with surfer Caroline Marks, a 2024 Paris Olympics gold medalist, world champion, and one of six featured athletes in Red Bull’s film “Now Days,” premiering May 1 on Red Bull’s YouTube. Marks explains how women’s surfing has rapidly progressed, including the WSL’s equal pay shift in 2019, and describes how the film—two and a half years in the making—brings fierce rivals together to show distinct styles and how women can push each other while still competing for No. 1. She recounts the full Olympic experience in 2024 after placing fourth in Tokyo, discusses surfing’s risks (reef, injuries, sharks, wipeouts), and shares training staples like Pilates, weight work, and swimming. Cari ends with encouraging words for viewers to watch the film and support the broader rise of women’s sports.

March Madness is All Around!
Cari has been bouncing between LA and New York and is close to recording from home full-time. She shouts out Kayla Nicole after appearing on her structured, story-driven “Pregame” podcast, saying it changed her perspective and reminded her not to judge people by social media. Now back in NYC, she vents about neighbors leaving shoes and a kid’s bike in the hallway, admits she left a polite note, and asks listeners if she was wrong. She recaps attending Gotham FC’s opener and then breaks down the WNBA’s new seven-year CBA: revenue share rising to 20%, a $7M team salary cap, a $1.4M top salary, and improvements like charter travel, housing, family planning support, and better insurance, while arguing players will soon need even more. She tees up and plays an interview with UCLA coach Cori Close and Jemele Hill about Wooden’s influence, media coverage gaps, NIL’s “wild west,” and building confident, pro-ready athletes as UCLA enters March Madness.

Hard Decisions with Weezy WTF
Today features Wheezy—co-host of Decisions, Decisions (formerly Whoreible Decisions) and an entrepreneur behind Trap Haus Fitness and WTF Media—about sex positivity, public judgment, and the business realities of building a brand. Wheezy explains the name change was driven by missed opportunities and lost ad revenue tied to “Whoreible,” even though the original title fit their message about how liberated women get labeled anyway; the shift brought more money but felt like losing some of the show’s original, kink-centered cultural impact. She shares how online backlash still hurts, why Black kink communities value the safe space she helped create, and how her open relationship can still reflect commitment. She ends with advice for women to communicate what they want sexually, prioritize pleasure, and stop treating desire like something to be ashamed of.
