UCLA National Champs, A Whirlwind Start to the WNBA Season, and KC Loves Softball

We're getting back into the swing of things (***kinda) and KP and LJ kick off this ep by getting you up to speed on their lives since the last time we chatted: the good (vacation), the bad (plumbing), and the excellent (Cougar Club, we <3 u). Then we jump right into the end of the NCAA basketball season and the joy of watching national champions UCLA, both on the court, and in their vlogs. Next we chat about the chaotic WNBA free agency and the overall changing landscape of women's basketball, the impact of the new collective bargaining agreement, and the commercial explosion of the WNBA We end with a chat about the World Cup possibly being a bust, but you know what's not a bust? The hype around women's softball, both professional and amateur, in Kansas City. ***around the 26 minute mark, one of our audios cuts out, for unknown reasons. brb gotta go make an offering to the audio gods

March Madness Stars, KC Current Rough Start, and a Lot of Snack Chat

Happy April Fools, fools! Pre-spring break, KP and LJ made time to bring you the latest! This episode covers a wide range of things we are passionate about including Mexico, hot yoga (for now), March Madness (mostly predictable), the new WNBA CBA (good), the beginning of the KC Current 2026 season (bad), public transit (new fans), the Snacket and recently-debuted MLB stadium foods. Come for the preview of the WNBA draft, stay for the SHOCKING reveal of the Midwest staple KP doesn't like.

End of Unrivaled Szn 2, KC Glory Player Stops a Robbery, and Why are ACL Tears on the Rise?

Happy belated Fake Patty's Day to all who celebrate! KP and LJ kick off this episode with a quick convo about the unlikely friends (or enemies) of our dogs, and where in this city we might find a sauna? Then we dive into the end of Unrivaled's second season and some curious metrics, a quick update on the WNBA CBA (yes, by now it's outdated, but we are HYPED to chat about this next time), and an iconic story about a woman stopping a robbery with her bare hands leads us to into a quick overview of the women's pro football team, the KC Glory! We end with a discussion of the NYT's recent reporting on the rise of ACL tears in young female athletes, what might be causing it, and our unprofessional takes on what might be done to remedy it. Fair warning: the audio is in rough shape, but this is amateur hour and we are all doing our best! Thanks for listening regardless, we love you!

Then we give you a primer on the NEW PRO SOFTBALL TEAM in town, the KC Diamonds, and a quick detour into KC Current news ahead of their opening game! Then you are getting a pre-Selection Sunday primer on March Madness, including us raging about the floor at the Big 12 tournament, discussion of teams to watch, and "bracketology". Bonus sections this week include an early discussion of how to make friends as an adult (if you're an extrovert, sry), and what you can find us eating and drinking during ESPN's NEW Women's Sports Sunday!

It's Vday! We Can't Get Enough Olympics and KC Current Makin Moves

Ya girls KP and LJ are back at it again on Valentine's Day!

Then we go over some money moves the KC Current made this week, and LJ attempts to understand how NWSL trades work, plus a new upscale (???) sports bar opening near their stadium. We end by manifesting our dream collaborations. Boulevard, if you're listening, we can swing by and talk any time!
