Azzi and Ashanti are joined by Stefanie Dolson for a real conversation about basketball, growth, and everything that comes with a long career. Stef looks back on her time at UConn, what it was like being part of championship teams, and how those years shaped her confidence once she got to the pros.

She talks about adjusting to different roles in the WNBA, staying ready even when your name isn’t always called, and learning how to lead in ways that don’t always show up on the stat sheet. Along the way, she shares stories from her career, lessons she’s picked up over time, and the things she wishes she understood earlier.

Azzi and Ashanti are back for a long-overdue solo catch-up, the kind that feels like hanging out with them between classes. They swap Thanksgiving stories—Azzi trying sweet-potato pie for the first time, Ashanti’s family traditions, and how the Huskies spend the holiday together. 

Azzi talks about juggling finals with an undefeated season, what practice has been teaching her lately, and prepping for her upcoming Madison Reed internship. They also revisit the viral “Azzi pushed that girl” moment and give their side of the story.

Then the two go head-to-head in a FAFO trivia game that puts both of their UConn basketball knowledge to the test, with results they definitely didn’t expect.

Azzi and Ashanti open up the inbox for a full FAFO AMA, and the questions take them in every direction possible. They talk fashion musts and misses, tall-girl shopping hacks, thrifting wins, and the team fits that should probably never return. The two get into confidence, routines, leadership, and how they reset when basketball feels heavy — along with some very specific food opinions neither of them are willing to back down from.

They also answer who on the team they’d build around, which teammates they’d trust in a crisis, the real story behind CD’s team-building games, and whether aliens have already made contact (and if they’re on the New York subway). Plus, UConn superlatives, dream life chapters, and a rapid-fire round that calls out more than a few teammates’ habits.

Azzi and Ashanti sit down with the always-iconic Gabby Williams for a conversation that covers hoops, fashion, anime, injuries, and everything in between. Fresh off the WNBA draft lottery broadcast, Gabby talks about repping the Storm on air, getting styled in a Sasha Colby look, and finally taking an offseason to actually rest.

She opens up about ACL recoveries, getting humbled at UConn, and how those classic “little UConn habits” still shape her game today. Gabby also shares stories about meeting Adam Sandler, embracing the “evil Azzi” memes, playing for France, and the truth behind the jorts curse.

Plus — fan questions, Beyblade battles, DJ Pinky lore, and more!

This week, Azzi and Ashanti are joined by the one and only Rhyne Howard, and the conversation goes everywhere in the best way. Rhyne talks about wrapping up her "W" season with the Atlanta Dream, what she learned from a year that didn’t go the way she wanted, and why leaning on her teammates made all the difference.

They get into three-on-three life, the pressure of representing Team USA in Paris, playing outdoors in the heat, and the moment she found out she officially made the Olympic roster. Then things take a turn into peak Rhyne energy — including her daily golf habit, her massive Lego collection (with functioning grand piano included), and her artistic side, from spray-painted animal canvases to custom sneakers and half-finished overalls.

The crew also dives into dream teammates, SpongeBob shoe collabs, designing jerseys, and a chaotic round of snack rankings that somehow leads to a full cottage-cheese debate.

Azzi and Ashanti dive into an AMA and spend the episode answering the questions you’ve been dying to ask. They break down everything from their most chaotic childhood phases to their current must-have beauty routines, favorite meals, and the hairstyles they wish they could forget.

They get into UConn memories, toughest matchups, and which teammates are absolutely not allowed to shoot their shot in celebrity DMs. There's even a surprising amount of debate over fandom names (some of which should never see the light of day).

To wrap it up, the crew jumps into Would You Rather and speed-round questions that reveal way too much about their priorities.

This week, Azzi and Ashanti sit down with celebrity stylist Sydnee Paige — the creative mind behind Azzi’s viral SLAM magazine cover — to break down every detail of how the shoot came together. From the custom KidSuper suit made from chopped-up jerseys to the nail art honoring UConn greats, the trio unpack all the behind-the-scenes chaos, fashion magic, and group chat-level trust that made the shoot one for the books.

Sydnee opens up about her journey from college athlete to top stylist, the lessons she learned grinding in New York fashion, and how she brings authenticity to styling athletes like Skylar Diggins, J.Lo, and Cardi B. Then things take a turn in FAFO fashion with a rapid-fire game of “Fudd or Dud”, where the crew rates everything from red cartoon boots to cargo skirts, ballet flats, and socks-with-heels energy.

Azzi and Ashanti are back, and this week they’re joined by UConn’s very own Caroline Ducharme — aka the Silent Assassin. From her quiet freshman year to becoming the mom of the team. Caroline opens up about her journey, her mindset, and how she fought her way back from multiple concussions.

The crew talks growing pains, locker room dynamics, and why this season feels different. Caroline also spills on growing up in New England basketball culture, the chaos of ring design day, and her unexpected theater debut as the rose in Beauty and the Beast.
