In other soccer news, Megan makes the case for Gotham FC to move to New York City, and takes a look at what the Americanization of the World Cup has looked like so far. And Megan explains why she’s not so stoked about the World Cup’s first-ever halftime show, even though it’ll feature Madonna, Shakira and BTS.

| 1/29/26 | Diana Flores on Flag Football for Dummies + WNBA Rivalries + Is UConn Untouchable? | Megan and Sue remember Alex Pretti, the ICU nurse who was killed by Customs and Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis, and share their thoughts on how to fight feeling overwhelmed with despair.

As Sue explains on the show, Sharon McMahon makes this very easy through her website, check it out here. For the rest of the show, Megan and Sue take a look at Trinity Rodman’s record-breaking salary with the Washington Spirit, and the brewing rivalry between Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark – and why rivalries are a good thing for the league. Plus, UConn is now the last college women’s basketball team standing undefeated. Does it matter? And Mexico’s flag football star Diana Flores joins us to talk about her new book, Flag Football for Dummies, and what it means for the sport to make its Olympic debut in 2028.

| 1/8/26 | New year, New Intentions and New Leagues: 2026 Could Change Everything! | It’s a new year, and Megan and Sue have a new set of intentions for 2026 to share. But first they’re checking in on how they did on last year’s intentions: Did Megan develop her green thumb? Did Sue read more consistently? Then, 2026 is shaping up to be a banner year in women’s sports. Several leagues are expanding AND women’s sports are getting a full season of professional lacrosse and the first women’s professional baseball league since the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League featured in A League of Their Own). Given all these new and burgeoning leagues, Megan and Sue reminisce on being part of young, brand new, and – in Megan’s case – folding leagues. Plus, Sue tells us if she’d been forced to choose between playing overseas (where the salaries were much higher) and staying stateside, which one she’d choose.

We’re also checking in on USA Basketball, which had its first training camp for the 2028 Olympics with Managing Director Sue Bird. Plus: Megan is handing out her end-of-the-year Meggies and we’re playing a themed bench/start/cut of holiday traditions – movies, songs, gifts – nothing’s safe!
