In this episode, P and V tackle a tough January, starting with the devastating impact of the LA wildfires and how sports fandom provides a unique escape during challenging times. P and V also dive into their different approaches to engaging with sports—do you read every stat to escape, or do you just barely watch the highlights?

V shares her surprising enthusiasm for TGL’s fresh take on golf (spoiler: it’s all about Tiger Woods for her), while P delivers a spicy update on Yankees fans’ behavior that only adds fuel to the "are they the worst?" debate.

We also celebrate the Phoenix Suns for stepping up and making NBA fandom more accessible—finally, a team doing something right! To wrap it all up, we share this week’s obsessions: V crunches some fascinating numbers, and P dishes out her thoughts on the Oscar nominations.
