Summary
The Sports Gossip Show is back, and after a quick detour about SNL 50, Madeline and Charlotte get into this week’s hot sports goss. First, a Valentine’s Day update on the most talked about couple in the sports world — UNC coach Bill Belichick and his young girlfriend, Jordon Hudson. Then, after watching Kylie Kelce’s interview with Alex Cooper on Call Her Daddy, the gals do a little bit of detective work on Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.
An NBA All-Star Weekend post-mortem: The events were weird, for a number of reasons. Madeline and Charlotte talk about how LiAngelo Ball performed, Mac McClung won the dunk contest for the third time in a row, MrBeast was there, and Inside The NBA got a fake funeral. Bring back All-Stars dunking! Hire The Sports Gossip Show to consult on All-Star, they’ll fix it.
A very important news item about Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker and his girlfriend, supermodel Kendall Jenner. They were spotted skiing in Aspen, and the gals provide a few very important facts about the place where they had lunch. Then, Charlotte floats a conspiracy theory about LeBron James and the Luka Doncic trade re: the Mavericks — could it have to do with Las Vegas? Listen to find out.
Paige Bueckers, UConn basketball star, tried to sneak away from an interview, which was somehow very relatable. Napheesa Collier won a tournament in her new Unrivaled league and made as much money in 30 minutes as she does in one WNBA season. Aaron Rodgers has indicated that he wants to play next season, which is the best news Madeline has ever heard. And finally: Which is it? A quote from Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla or a line that got cut from the movie The Town?
