Hey, you're about to hear an interview I did with WMBA player Jordan Canada.

One way I know Jordan is because we work together on this amazing new series for Jordan Brand called Take It from L.A.,

where we celebrate the LA basketball culture and the whole basketball community.

Since her episode drops tomorrow, January 26th, this felt like a perfect time

to share this interview. Enjoy. Welcome to Spinsters, a podcast where we love Danady Kane. I am

Jordan Canada. Yes. Yes. Perfect.

Well, what connects us is besides both being named Jordan.

Actually, before we even get started, what is life like as an I in Jordan?

Because I am, I spell my name J-O-R-D-A-N, but I've always wondered what life is like as an I-N.

So please tell us.

It's pretty cool.

You know, I get a lot of people that say they like the way that my name is spelled.

Some people ask me why my name is spelled with an I-N and not an A-N.

So I can thank my dad for that. He wanted to

name me I in instead of A.m. because he thought, you know, it just was different. It was a little

bit more unique. Yeah. I feel that. I mean, that's that's that's pretty much it. Nothing really

too unique of a story of why my name is with the I in. But this

pretty cool. I just get a lot of compliments about my name. Do I feel like we mutually hate the Y

N Jordans though. I feel like that's a different. That's something different. That's a different.

I don't know if I know anybody with the Y

in I do know somebody with the E in and that's oh that's different um yeah I don't think I like

I think the I in and the A end is the best way to go yeah now the Y, I haven't met anybody with the YN, but I mean, it's, it's okay. In fifth grade, I tried it out for a week. I was like, you know, I'm just going to change it. I'm going to go Y in. I want, I'm going to start writing it on my homework just to see how it feels. And it was different. It wasn't me. It was different. It wasn't the same vibes as the A-N.
