Listen Later

Shaquille O’Neal’s appearance on Angel Reese’s podcast, “Unapologetically Angel”, served as a reminder for everyone but especially men: never comment on women’s bodies, period. Blake and Caroline share their thoughts on his uncomfy comments.

In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: 

  • Hendy’s Halloween plans (working) and Blake’s latest visit to the University of Michigan 
  • Why people are losing their sh*t over the Dwayne Wade statue, and why Blake believes it serves as a lesson in confidence 
  • Rating Anthony Edwards’ trash-talking against Bronny Jr., plus whether Bronny can break thru Lebron’s legacy 
  • New York Road Runners upcoming marathon with insights about the race from the org’s SVP of Strategic Partnerships, Christine Burke
  • NFL Week 8 highlights including the insane hail mary from the Washington Commanders, Trevon Diggs getting feisty with a reporter, and Anthony Richardson pulling out from his game because he was … tired? 
  • Our favorite “Send It” moments of the week, including Giannis’s press conference costume, the Uncrustable Craze feeding the NFL, and Ilona Maher latest viral TikTok.
