In this visit from our favorite sports media critic, we stop worrying and learn to follow the WNBA. Or Ryan does. I, like many a casual, mostly track the Caitlin Clark aspect. Seems like she’s…really good?

Topics on this pod include but aren’t limited to…

* A nerd could have predicted that Caitlin Clark was better than the initial numbers

* The decision to keep Clark off the Olympic team is starting to look worse.

* Ryan sees the Fever media situation up close

* Do we dare discuss how the WNBA has shifted its marketing to advertise, uh, image?

* WNBAer Natasha Cloud speaks out on Gaza, but few athletes join in on that topic

* Why aren’t athletes backing Joe Biden in ways Dems have usually gotten support in the past?

* Why aren’t athletes criticizing Donald Trump as used to happen?

* JJ Redick gets hired by the Lakers. Shocker!

* Speaking of politics, the Lakers under Jeanine Buss = one of the major political parties
