Caroline and Blake attended the WNBA draft last night and have many thoughts. While Blake beefed with the Dallas Wings mascot, a controversial celeb gave a nod to Caroline. Plus, we get an inside look at the orange carpet from content creator Aliyah Funschelle, who joins us in the studio to chat about exclusive interviews with athletes (and Paige Buecker’s after party with Nike).

Paige Bueckers and co. brought UCONN’s women basketball to its first March Madness win in almost a decade. After tearful celebrations, Coach Geno Auriemma shared some choice words for the NCAA.

Mar 25 2025 33 mins

Blake and Caroline predicted a Trinity Rodman and Ben Shelton hard launch, but Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump? Not on our bingo cards. Several couples made their relationships IG official this week, and there might be a potential power couple budding between JuJu Watkins and Jayden Daniels. That is, unless Jayden’s mom can help it. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also co

Before Simone and Suni came Shawn Johnson, the Olympic gold medalist who shot to fame during the Olympics 17 years ago. Yup, we feel old too.

Timmy and Kylie Take Indian Wells, Tennis Scores a Mat Leave Win, and the Lip Readers Take On LeBron

Mar 11 2025 57 mins

Last week Blake and Caroline wondered which sports league would take the lead on supporting players’ families, and the Women’s Tennis Association said “allow me.” The WTA clinched a historic win for its players who are now eligible for 12-months of maternity leave, grants for fertility treatment, and more. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Yay or nay: the

Commentators nationwide took a hard look in the mirror when LeBron called out the “weird energy” in sports media, where coverage of NBA players is nothing but negative. Seattle Storm player Lexie Brown joins us in the studio to chat about how that negativity led her to delete her Twitter, how she trained her brain to always see the positive, and why she finally took her own men

Feb 18 2025 54 mins

The NBA hoped to get fans to care about the All Star Game this year and…it seriously backfired. After only 42 minutes of game time during the 3-hour broadcast, fans were left scratching their heads at the new format, the constant stoppages, and Kevin Hart’s (bad) jokes. Blake and Caroline look to the NHL’s 4 Nations for inspiration on how the ballers can make next year better
