Time Out is where women's basketball meets real talk for sports families. Host Ashley Antoine — women's basketball media personality, athlete branding strategist, and sports mom raising an elite hooper — covers girls hoops from high school to EYBL to college to the pros. The watchlist. The rising stars. The coaching stories. The game breakdowns. If you want to stay plugged into where the game is heading, Time Out is your spot. But Time Out is more than basketball analysis. It's also the show Ashley wished existed when her own daughter started playing at the elite level and the family was figuring it all out in real time. Every week, Ashley sits down with the people IN the trenches — players, parents, coaches, college recruiters, brand experts, mental performance coaches — and has the honest version of the conversation. About recruiting. About NIL. About mental health. About injuries and recovery. About the sacrifice, the money, the pressure, and the joy. About the parts of this journey nobody puts in the highlight reel. No script. No PR voice. Just the truth of what it actually takes. Whether you're a fan of the game, a sports parent in the thick of it, an athlete chasing the dream, or a coach pouring into the next generation — pull up a seat. This one's for you. New episodes every week. Hit follow so you don't miss one. Time Out is part of the Black Sports Parents League — a community helping families navigate the modern athlete journey.

    Ep. 3: Memphis Made: Jed on Passing the Torch to His Son

    What happens when a former elite athlete becomes the parent of one? This episode on Time Out, Ashley reconnects with her high school classmate Jed — a phenomenal quarterback out of Memphis back in the day — whose son just wrapped up his freshman basketball season as his team's Offensive Player of the Year. As a freshman. Jed opens up about the unique challenge of being a sports dad when you've BEEN the kid chasing the dream. They dig into the sacrifice, the financial reality, the emotional side of supporting a young athlete, and how being a former quarterback shapes — and sometimes complicates — the way he shows up for his son. He also shares the advice every sports parent needs to hear. This conversation is for every dad pouring into his kid's dream, and every family trying to figure out how to support a rising star the right way. 🎙 New episodes every week.

    The Girls You Don't Know Yet — Welcome to Time Out

    There's a girl in a gym in Shreveport right now who's better than you think she is. There are hundreds of her, thousands of her — spread across high school gyms and AAU circuits and small-town tournaments nobody's covering. This is the show that's going to find them. In this first episode of Time Out, Ashley J. Antoine introduces the podcast, the beat, and the perspective she's bringing to women's basketball coverage — as a former Division I player, a twenty-year educator, an independent journalist, and the current sports parent of an elite EYBL hooper. She covers: → Who Time Out is for and what to expect every week → Why the modern women's game deserves better coverage than it's getting → What's coming in the first few episodes → How to get involved in the Black Sports Parents League If you're a sports parent in the trenches, a player trying to build a brand and a future at the same time, or a fan who's tired of surface-level coverage of the women's game — this is your room.
