Rollerblading Into Lake Mendota with Lacey Eden

Four-time NCAA champion at the University of Wisconsin and 2026 PWHL Draft prospect Lacey Eden joins Sarah ahead of Wednesday night’s draft. They discuss Lacey’s record-breaking college career, how she’s preparing for the draft later this week, and rollerblading into a large body of water. (And Lacey also makes Sarah cry a little bit while talking about not making the 2026 Winter Olympic team.) Plus, one twin wins, dueling 40-burgers, and practice makes perfect – okay maybe not perfect, but good enough.  * Fill out the Good Game survey here [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScHh-KMSm9fc-ht9DzEyIT4oJR9w62qM_E5mUtYYC4kDKV9FQ/viewform?usp=dialog] * Watch Sarah’s warm-up and official first pitch at the AUSL game here [https://www.instagram.com/reel/DZlmqROhTy7/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==] * Check out @tattood.cloth on Instagram here [https://www.instagram.com/tattood.cloth/] * You can now WATCH Sarah’s interviews!

Controlling the Narrative: Tribeca X with Phil Cook, Keia Clarke, and Rachel Epstein

Sarah sits down with WNBA CMO Phil Cook, New York Liberty CEO Keia Clarke, and NWSL CMO Rachel Epstein for a Tribeca X panel at Spring Studios in New York City. The group discusses the barriers and obstacles that long delayed the cultural moment women’s sports are now having, how major TV networks both reflect and dictate how women’s sports are covered and sold, the importance of storytelling, and how leagues and teams can improve awareness and enable access to their content. Plus, dropping out by default, wanting to stay but being forced to leave, and a friend of the show has a nice welcome-to-the-big-leagues moment. * Fill out the Good Game survey here [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScHh-KMSm9fc-ht9DzEyIT4oJR9w62qM_E5mUtYYC4kDKV9FQ/viewform?usp=dialog] * The AUSL schedule is here [https://theausl.com/schedule] * You can now WATCH Sarah’s interviews!

Strobe Goggles and Socks with Alex Sarama

Portland Fire coach Alex Sarama joins Sarah to discuss the team’s strong start to its inaugural season, why he’s ready for this moment despite being the youngest coach in the WNBA, and the reaction he gets when he tells his athletes to take off their shoes and take shots in socks. The reigning WNBA Coach of the Month also shares how his constraints-led approach impacts everything from planning practices to pre-game rituals. Plus, Father’s Day gifts that don’t suck. * Fill out the Good Game survey here [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScHh-KMSm9fc-ht9DzEyIT4oJR9w62qM_E5mUtYYC4kDKV9FQ/viewform?usp=dialog] * Read more about Alex Sarama’s constraints-led approach here [https://www.oregonlive.com/portland-fire/2026/05/no-shootaround-practicing-in-socks-alex-saramas-system-starts-before-the-games.html] * Follow Alex Sarama on Instagram here [https://www.instagram.com/alexsarama/] * Order Sarah’s book “Runs in the Family” here [https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Runs-in-the-Family/Sarah-Spain/9781668036280] * And order “Soccer Dad” by David Murray here [https://writing-boots.com/david-murray-soccer-dad/] * You can now WATCH Sarah’s interviews!
