    The NWSL Champs! | Rose Lavelle, Emily Sonnett, Jaedyn Shaw, and Lilly Reale of Gotham FC

    Hello! It's the podcast that isn't afraid to sing Sinatra with the reigning US Soccer Player of the Year. Today, Katie and the Casualties react to the World Baseball Classic final, Team Venezuela taking down the USA in front of a very pro-Venezuela crowd, whether or not the US is really trying to win if Mark DeRosa is the manager and Mason Miller isn't pitching, Rob Manfred's silver medal presentation, and what part of the human anatomy is best represented by the WBC logo, plus Katie's thoughts on the WNBA's new labor deal and Team USA's gold medal in Paralympics Sled Hockey. Then, the stars of the reigning NWSL champions - Rose Lavelle, Emily Sonnett, Jaedyn Shaw, and Lilly Reale of Gotham FC - sit down with Katie in front of a live audience [20:33] to talk about their 2025 championship run, whether or not they were truly the underdogs, Jaedyn's quotes making t-shirts, the feeling of three straight games with late heroics in the postseason, what brought the team together, how they follow it up in 2026, the investment in players after the league kept Trinity Rodman from leaving for Europe, what's truly changed about professional soccer for women in the United States over the last decade, the international stage and taking home the Shebelieves Cup again this year, competing against the world's best and developing at that level, the World Cup in the United States in 2026, and the growth of the game in the United States, before a crazy game in the studio where we find out how truly had the best time at the championship celebration, who's the best future coach, who's best with the aux cord, who's really mad they missed out on Halloween 2025, and so much more.

    Bakers, Beers, and the NCAA Women’s Bracket | Plus Jeopardy! with Andrew He

    Hello! It's the podcast that may eventually Google what a Catamount is. Maybe. Today, Katie and the Casualties react to a busy Sunday night in sports with the WBC and The Oscars going head to head, Marty Supreme getting shut out, Kevin O'Leary wearing another bedazzled lanyard on the red carpet, Michael B. Jordan and Jesse Plemons' bromance, Leonardo DiCaprio's mustache, Pedro Pascal's lack of a mustache, and the tied award that put way too much weight on Kumail Nanjiani's shoulders. Then, Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament champion Andrew He stops by [16:06] to break down Katie's performance in Celebrity Jeopardy! on Friday, the advanced metrics behind her and Rachel Dratch, the difficulty of Celebrity Jeopardy! versus regular Jeopardy!, Tupac, Jay Cutler, pupusas, and the missed answers that keep a player up at night, the interview segment, making Ken Jennings proud, and why Jeopardy! contestants seem to have so much trouble with sports. Katie and the Casualties then touch on Team USA's sled hockey gold, Hofstra, Miami of Ohio, the Goo Goo Dolls, and the Men's NCAA Bracket, before diving into an in-depth look at the Women's Bracket. We asked the communications departments of all 68 teams in the tournament about the single most fun fact about their roster, and then picked the first-round matchups based on it. Who has a pet hedgehog? Who bakes? Who does Legos on road trips? Whose mom was in Degrassi? Who has a TikTok account strictly for Tall Girl Fashion? Are we blacklisted in Baton Rouge? And will any of this help us pick the winners? And finally, Chris wraps the show with a look at What to Watch in sports this week.   Join the Bracket Challenge! Click Here Casuals merch!

    Luging, Condom Collectors, and Dating at the Olympics | with Sophia Kirkby

    Hello! It's the podcast that isn't nearly athletic enough to eat authentic Italian food in a white sweatshirt. Today, Katie and the Casualties celebrate Alysa Liu, Paul Rothrock, and athletes finding inspiration post-Olympics, before briefly getting into most of the USA men's hockey team attending the State of the Union, the five who didn't, and the women being invited to celebrate with Flavor Flav in Las Vegas, AFTER already celebrating with Megan Thee Stallion over pasta in Italy. Megan is manifesting both an engagement and an EGOT; what are Katie and the team manifesting in 2026? Katie and the Casualties then get into Angels owner Arte Moreno saying that he believes winning is not a top priority for his fans, Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban saying his fans should embrace when they try to lose on purpose, NFL owners saying making players stop giving them bad grades, and none of it making sense. Fresh off the Olympics, Team USA luger Sophia Kirkby joins the show [47:03] to talk about representing the USA, her relationship with her luge partner, what makes a strong luger, dating at the Winter Olympics and being called "The Olympic Village's Most Eligible Bachelorette", going on a first date at a spa with a man who flew in from the UK just to say her, flirting via DM while waiting on an Olympic drug test, the much-reported Olympic condom shortage and the art of international condom collecting, her custom ceramic pins and her Amazon Handmade shop, Olympic lava cakes, Olympic apple juice, and drinks at the top of an Olympic mountain, rubbing elbows with Alysa Liu and Mikaela Shiffrin, what her future holds, and the one true difference between a luger and a bobsledder. Then, the team wraps with Nicolas Cage, Jeff Kent, buckets of coffee, and a memorable round of "Did Ya See THAT?"   This episode is presented by GMC. We are Professional Grade. Casuals merch!
