It's the first games of the WNBA season, and Grace and Thomas have so much to talk about. First, though, they cover the biggest non-game stories of the week. The upcoming Golden State expansion team finally has an identity, and Grace and Thomas are really into it. And the charter flights have started...kinda? It's definitely not the best or most organized rollout, but it is the most Cathy Engelbert rollout.

Next they start getting into the first games for every team. They both watched the entirety of the Liberty/Mystics game, and as such they have a lot of thoughts on it. They discuss some positives and some negatives (that don't seem to be too long lasting, in one case at least). Next the Fever/Sun game, the incredible defense of DiJonai Carrington and the incredible offense of basically everyone on the Sun. And the Lynx Storm game, where they see a lot of similarities to the Liberty's start last year and why superteams built this way need time to gel.

Finally, they get into the other three games. First, the Mercury/Aces game, and what the concerns are for the Mercury (and there are a few), and what the concerns are not for the Aces. Then the games from the second day, starting with a closer than initially thought Sky/Wings game, and how the Sky may not be good but they will be annoying. They end with the Dream/Sparks game and the comeback of a Liberty legend (legitimate) .
