Summary

David and Victoria Beckham graduated from “Mr. and Mrs.” to “Sir and Lady” after the soccer legend was knighted for his service in sport and charity. It was a decade-long process – and apparently included some expletive-filled emails when he got passed over years ago. The family gathered to celebrate, but we couldn’t help but notice one noticeably absent Beckham. Meanwhile, Simone Biles shared a “get unready with me” TikTok we didn’t know we needed full of cultural confessions. Simone, if you’re reading this: it would be our honor to show you how to use a dishwasher. In this week’s episode, we also discuss: Caroline’s crash out over the Jets trade of Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams Hellen Obiri breaking the NYC Marathon course record – and her parents adorable reaction Clayton Kershaw’s dad bod on full display, plus whether Shohei Ohtani is secretly fluent in English What we want out of the next Cardi B and Robert Kraft sighting Joe Burrow’s Halloween costume that had us asking…why so serious?
