Summary
Madeline and Charlotte are back with an episode full of sports gossip and then some not-so-fun Epstein Files-related information at the end.
First, Madison Beer and Chargers QB Justin Herbert were spotted at pre-GRAMMYs party. Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza officially has a LinkedIn sponsorship! Tom Brady had a weird time on his couch with his Instagram stories, and Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton were spotted in Paris together.
Unrivaled set a record for women’s basketball attendance with its huge Philly crowd, and Kylie Kelce gave star Paige Bueckers all the fixins’ for a Shirley Temple after the two talked about the drink on Kelce’s show. On a broadcast, Reggie Miller compared Caitlin Clark to Payton Pritchard — and she was understandably not happy about it. In final basketball news: a Giannis trade!?
It’s looking good for Jordan Chiles receiving her 2024 bronze medal. Singer Benson Boone is playing in the flag football game at the Super Bowl. Robert Kraft will not be in The Hall of Fame this year, his first year of eligibility.
And, finally, a dive into the NFL owners who were mentioned by Jeffrey Epstein — Giants owner Steve Tisch, Patriots owner Robert Kraft, and Jets owner Woody Johnson all come up a fair amount.

| 0:24.2 | Hi, Charlotte. Got to just my mic. Not an episode goes by where Charlotte. Madeline, good day. We're back. We sure are. Got to adjust my mic. Not an episode goes by where Charlotte doesn't at least adjust her mic one time. Look, I'm just saying we've all got |
| 0:27.8 | something going on. I've said it, but you know, speaking of something going on, I, oh, you know this. |
| 0:33.3 | I do. For those listening, I slept through my alarm like a teenager today. Because I stayed up until |
| 0:40.3 | one in the morning crocheting. Yes, you did. And I've never been prouder. Well, you taught me how to do it. |
| 0:46.7 | I did. Charlotte and I have been locked in to the yarn arts. What do they call it? Fabricart, textile fabric art. Something like that. |
| 0:57.0 | As you know, if you listened last week, I was sick for what felt like 10 days with kind of the |
| 1:02.7 | weirdest, not illness, illness. Just a pretty, not feeling great. And so I spent basically a week |

| 1:13.7 | You made the most, Madeline made the most beautiful red scarf I've ever seen. Oh, hush. Oh, |
| 1:18.7 | hush. And I finished my scarf. You made actually two projects. You finished two projects. |
| 1:23.7 | I feel like a woman possessed when I'm crocheting. It is the, it's all I want to do. I, if I'm being honest, part of me would rather be crocheting right now. Well, it's like once you start, I can't explain. I'm just kidding. I love hanging out of you guys. No, we love this show. But it's hard to be interrupted. I can't explain it. There's something about the meditative state of doing that yarn over pull through that it's like you become, you're in a trance. Yeah, you, you, it's, the thought of not doing it when you're doing it is horrific. Yes. And like when you get to the end of a row, I mean, last night, I was like, well, I'll just do one more row. And then it's literally one in the morning. |
| 2:01.1 | I know. |
| 2:01.5 | It's always just one more row. |
