    WNBA Players Want Bread, and Roses Too

    New year, same hosts, as Wine & Dime returns to discuss the continuing labour strife between the WNBAPA and the league including what the union's strike vote means, why the players have the most leverage possibly ever, the lack of trust between both parties, and how a strike ultimately hurts everyone. They close the episode by recapping all of the NBA news they missed.  Wine Pairing: Henkell Piccolo Rose (Germany) Follow us @wineanddimepod on Instagram, X and TikTok.

    Clipwrecked

    Chris and Lyndsay are back, and popping open the Cava. They start with the messy breakup between Chris Paul and the Clippers, where Chris could wind up (Wolves?), and the general disaster that is the Los Angeles Clippers before hitting on the Suns connecting deeper with the Indigenous community in Arizona, Norman Powell the renaissance man, the state of North American sports ownership (James Dolan sucks, but private equity sucks worse), an update on the WNBA-WNBPA negotiations and the ever stranger landscape that is college athletics.  Wine Pairing: Freixenet Cordon Negro Brut Cava (Spain) Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, Twitter @wineanddimepod

    They Were Hired by Dr. Evil to Construct Project B
