    From Policy to The Playoffs with Sheryl Swoopes and Terrika Foster-Brasby

    In this episode, we get into it — sports, politics, and everything in between. The hosts break down what’s really going on in today’s political climate, especially around education and how corporate power keeps showing up in all the wrong places. They also unpack how different generations are seeing politics play out and how political figures influence the way we think, act, and show up in the world. Then we switch gears and dive into one of the most exciting times of year — March Madness. The conversation gets heated in the best way, especially when we talk about women’s basketball. Shoutout to legends like Dawn Staley and the rivalries that keep the energy high and the fans coming back. But it’s not just about the game — it’s about the business too. The hosts dig into the current state of negotiations in women’s hoops and why smart, strategic moves are key if we want to keep this momentum going and take the league to the next level.

    The Good Game of Business with Sali Christeson

    On this episode of Naked Sports, we’re getting real — like, take-the-gloves-off kind of real. We’re talking about the intersection where sports, culture, and politics ALL collide — because let’s be honest, they always do. Sali Christeson is our very special guest — someone who’s not just brilliant, but who’s also become a true ally in this work. We get into the messy, necessary conversations about bias, what real allyship looks like, and how political moments hit differently — especially for women. But it’s not all heavy. There’s a beautiful, personal story in here too — about friendship, holding each other down through hard times, and what it means to show up for someone when the world feels upside down. This episode is a reminder that vulnerability isn’t weakness — it’s how we grow, connect, and find our way back to each other in a divided world.
