There are a ton (well, at least three) of NFL documentaries out this fall, and Madeline and Charlotte watched them so you don’t have to. And if you watched them too, that’s great! It’s like a book club, but for docs!
Join SGS for another deep dive episode analyzing two Netflix series, “America’s Team: The Cowboy and His Gamblers” and “Quarterback,” plus HBO’s “Hard Knocks: Training Camp With the Buffalo Bills.”
Come along for the conversation about what makes a documentary, what gets excluded, whether access wins out over truth these days, and what the gals learned after filling their brains with hours of NFL-based content.

Well, folks, Madeline and Charlotte have a doozy of an episode for you today! Lots of juicy stuff — but first, they check in on their Week 2 NFL vibes-based picks. Not to brag, but they really crushed it this week. Then, an update on the compressed flowers at Green Bay Packers’ quarterback Jordan Love’s wedding. In not-so-great news, Joe Burrow broke his toe and the Kansas City Chiefs are falling apart. Also, Taylor Swift appeared to sneak into the Chiefs’ stadium?
The WNBA’s StudBudz are in Vogue. The Playoffs have started, and coaches are *not* happy with the officiating.
The gals discuss the alleged love triangle between tennis stars Jannick Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, and Brooks Nader — is it real, or is Nader just promoting her new reality show? Jordon Hudson was going to appear on Dancing with the Stars, but now she isn’t, and it’s not totally surprising. Snowboarder Shaun White and actress Nina Dobrev broke off their engagement and SGS coins the term “WAG-washing.”
Plus, an update to the Shohei Ohtani lawsuit that the gals don’t understand.

Madeline and Charlotte are back with a very special episode. First, the gals pick their winners of the NFL’s Week 2 using vibes only.
Then, it’s time for a refresher on the most famous Wags of the NFL. The gals talk about how they met, how long they’ve been together, and — if the couple is married — how compressed the flowers were at their weddings.
Couples covered include:

The gals are back after a dizzying first week of NFL football. First, an update on Madeline’s first RedZone experience, a hello to RedZone host Scott Hanson, and checking in on Charlotte’s Patriots (bad). Tom Brady is online again, posting very 2016 selfies, and it’s great. Nebraska’s Dylan Raiola continues to emulate the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes.
The US Open concluded this weekend! Aryna Sabalenka beat Amanda Anisimova to take the women’s title, and Carlos Alcaraz beat his rival, Jannik Sinner. Sinner and Alcaraz are adorable. The gals then check in on how their “vibes-based” NFL predictions did, before getting into the messiness of the NFL’s Week 1: Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy saved Minnesota, Madeline’s Bills mounted the most incredible comeback over the Ravens, the gals went to the Eagles-Cowboys game (where Spitgate occurred), the Chiefs lost in Brazil, and Aaron Rodgers *does* hate the Jets.
UNC head coach Bill Belichick banned Patriots scouts from the UNC facilities and is using the public university for his own petty agenda. Fun! Then, an update on the WNBA: Caitlin Clark is out for the season, and the Chicago Sky suspended Angel Reese.

Well, folks, it finally happened — Bill Belichick took the field to coach UNC’s football team for the first time. After months of build-up and hype (especially surrounding his relationship with Jordon Hudson, who cold-called the gals out of the blue last month), his team lost 48-14. The TCU Horned Frogs demolished UNC, and the announcers ran out of stuff to talk about — to the point that ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit put his headset on his dog.
Madeline and Charlotte have many thoughts about how Belichick is handling the young people he’s responsible for.
There were many celebs in attendance, including NBA legend Michael Jordan, Former UNC basketball coach Roy Williams, NFL greats Lawrence Taylor, Julius Peppers, and Randy Moss, and country singers Eric Church and Chase Rice. There were many wild fan-made signs, the pre-game show felt like a living funeral, and the season couldn’t have gotten off to a rougher start!
The gals then dive into some US Open drama, including the fact that Naomi Osaka beat Coco Gauff, and actor Rami Malek talked to Condé Nast godmother Anna Wintour for three straight matches. Plus, the Cowboys traded Micah Parsons. Also, SGS listeners can join our documentary club!

Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to welcome a guest that they’ve been wanting to have on the show for a LONG time — Jessica Smetana! Jess is a sports commentator and analyst. She currently hosts The Echos podcast with Mike Golic Jr., and you may have seen her on Vice TV’s Sports Gone Wrong or on a Meadowlark Media property.
Jess and Charlotte have also been friends and colleagues for almost 10 years, and used to host The Most Valuable Podcast together (RIP).
The gals covered a lot of ground together for this college football preview. How well will Belichick and UNC actually perform this year, and will his personal life be a distraction? Why is college football historically the messiest sport?
They also discussed the lore of the Manning family (and why Archie Manning is the Kris Jenner of college football), NFL nepo babies in college football, the story of Houston Nutt, Hugh Freeze, and an escort service (yes, those are names of real people), and much more!

This episode was supposed to be the weekly Tuesday episode of The Sports Gossip Show, but then Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got engaged, and Madeline and Charlotte had to record an emergency episode that went up yesterday instead! Go listen to it!
Here we’ve got a few quick hits: Madison Beer and Justin Herbert were photographed together again, Wally the green monster performed at the Boston Jonas Brothers concert where JoJo sang wearing a Red Sox jersey, and Donna Kelce is posting about visiting historical landmarks.
Then it’s on to US Open drama: Madison Keys was upset by Renata Zarazua, Carlos Alcaraz got a confounding haircut, Venus Williams came very close to winning at age 45, and Daniil Medvedev had a complete meltdown on the court. Also, Serena Williams introduced Maria Sharapova at her Tennis Hall of Fame induction. In other country club news, Tommy Fleetwood finally won a golf major in his 164th start! And the gals learned all about his family and age-gap relationship. And in *more* country club-esq news, Bill Belichick is selling a house on Nantucket that is probably a bad investment and you shouldn’t buy it.
Also: Tom Brady is online again, Shilo Sanders was ejected from a preseason game after he punched someone and then was waived by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Micah Parsons Cowboy’s drama over his contract with the Cowboys persists, and Paige Bueckers had an amazing 44-point night.

Catherine Whitaker is one of the co-hosts of The Tennis Podcast, another great show on The Athletic Podcast Network, and Madeline and Charlotte are thrilled to welcome her to the Sports Gossip Show ahead of this year’s US Open. The tennis tea has never been hotter!
The gals ask Catherine everything you all want to know about this year’s upcoming American Grand Slam. She talks about the length of the tennis season and whether anything can be done about it, Jannick Sinner’s doping ban, why Iga Świątek is no-drama, how Naomi Osaka is her own fiercest competition, and hook-up culture on the tour.
Things get juicy when Catherine tells the gals about the love triangle that tennis fans desperately want to believe in between Emma Raducanu, Carlos Alcaraz, and Jack Draper. She also dishes about a rumored love triangle from years ago involving Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova.

This episode starts out with Madeline and Charlotte’s affinity for the arts and a shameless request for tickets to Shakespeare In The Park. Then, a quick Jordon Hudson update, because she should take a page out of Taylor Swift’s playbook.
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert stopped by singer Madison Beer’s photoshoot — are they dating? WNBA great Sue Bird had a beautiful statue dedicated to her in front of the Seattle Storm’s arena, and we need more bronze statues of women. Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd did a very cute podcast together, and the Golden State Valkyries have a new mascot named Violet.
Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer needs to scrub his Venmo history. The Browns’ quarterback drama continues, with some strange comments that rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel says he *didn’t* make about fellow-rookie QB Shedeur Sanders. The University of Michigan received its punishment for the 2023 sign-stealing scandal, and the name Connor Stalions is back in the news. Finally, the gals try to figure out what’s going on with a real estate lawsuit involving Shohei Ohtani and his agent.

Madeline and Charlotte start this episode off with a few updates about Jordon Hudson after last week’s episode detailing how they almost secured an interview with her. Also, the gals need your questions for a mailbag episode, so be sure to email them to info@sportsgossipshow.com!
Then, witness your intrepid hosts crash out because there’s a very good chance that Taylor Swift is going to appear on an episode of her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s podcast this Wednesday. Will she announce her “lost” album, Karma? The gals dissect what all this could mean (and don’t worry, there will be an emergency episode if this happens.)
Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla signed a new contract and it would be great if he had social media. Tom Brady attended a statue unveiling at the Patriots’ stadium, and Madeline makes Charlotte guess his real speech vs. one she had ChatGPT write. Shedeur Sanders debuted with the Browns and everyone tweeted about it. There is a very bizarre situation in the WNBA involving sex toys and cryptocurrency, which is the most depressingly 2025 sentence ever. NBA star Joel Embiid’s knee doesn’t seem to be doing well, and there’s some sleuthing going about who leaked a story to ESPN insider Shams Charania last season.
And, finally — a compressed flower update! The Oklahoma City Thunder’s Alex Caruso got married, and Manchester United’s Ella Toone got engaged.

The title of this episode is pretty self-explanatory. Two Saturdays ago, Charlotte received a call from Jordon Hudson, Bill Belichick’s girlfriend, whom The Sports Gossip Show has covered extensively. Madeline and Charlotte then spent five hours over the course of the week talking to her, and thought there was a good chance she would come on the show. That, however, did not happen. So here is the story.

Madeline and Charlotte are back with a very special announcement: The Sports Gossip Show has officially joined The Athletic Podcast Network! The gals couldn’t be more excited. If you’re new here, this show breaks down and adds context to the wildest developments in the messy world of sports — because it’s much more fun to watch athletes on the field if you know what they’re doing off it.
Whether you’re a die-hard fan who has the standings of multiple leagues memorized or someone who thinks Taylor Swift put Travis Kelce on the map, join Madeline and Charlotte as they watch sports with one eye on the game and one eye on the personal life section of athletes’ Wikipedia pages.
Today’s episode kicks off with an important update about Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel. Everyone’s favorite WNBA social media stars, the StudBudz, signed a baby. LA Lakers star Luka Dončić signed a contract extension with general manager Rob Pelinka, and then they took the team to see the Backstreet Boys in Las Vegas. The gals may or may not put on a short play about this.
The USTA announced that a dating show will take place at this year’s US Open called Game, Set, Matchmaker (groan!). WNBA star Dijonai Carrington was traded from the Dallas Wings to the Minnesota Lynx a month after her girlfriend, NaLyssa Smith, was traded from the Wings to the Las Vegas Aces. In more WNBA news, the minority owner of the Celtics bought the Connecticut Sun and wants to move the team to Boston.
Tom Brady is still very online. Micah Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys are in a messy will-they, won’t-they situation. Premiere League star Son Heung-min is heading to LA in an historic move for the MLS. And a quick compressed flower check-in for Kemba Walker’s wedding!

The gals are back with a show full to the brim with sports gossip! Madeline and Charlotte start off with a few quick updates: 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and his wife, Jenna Purdy, had a baby, Lionel Messi went to a Coldplay concert (lol), and Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton got engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Jade Jodes.
Then, the main event: Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce posted a bunch of photos with Taylor Swift. Are they engaged? Are they married? Why are “sources” close to them (Taylor’s publicist Tree Paine) releasing so many quotes about how they’re going to end up together? Also: Taylor posted in support of Happy Gilmore 2, because Travis is in it.
Nikola Jokic loves his horses so much that he cried when one of them won a race. The gals check in on Tom Brady, who has been very active online posting about “breathtaking sunsets that take your breath away,” his cat, and Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding. Lakers star Luka Dončić is ripped on the cover of Men’s Health.
NFL players are in trouble for selling their Super Bowl Tickets. Steelers great Terry Bradshaw and current Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers are fighting. The fascist dictator Benito Mussolini’s grandson plays soccer? Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarett Allen did the High School Musical dance at his wedding. And, finally, Philadelphia Eagles tight end Kylen Granson married Daisy Foko Granson and their wedding was….well, you’ll have to listen to hear the gal’s thoughts!

Welcome back to the Sports Gossip Show! Madeline and Charlotte are coming at you today with a jam-packed show full of the latest updates in the wild world of sports. But first, they start with the debacle at the Coldplay concert in Boston and explain why it was sports.
Then it’s time to dissect WNBA All-Star weekend, which looked like the best party on earth. Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers and UConn star Azzi Fudd are officially together. The StudBudz — the duo of Minnesota Lynx teammates Courtney Williams and Natisha Hiedeman — broke the internet (Google them and Megan Rapinoe and thank us later). WNBA players advocated for fair pay with T-shirts. It was amazing.
Then, a quick detour down Millennial Memory Lane, followed by the huge news that artist Megan Thee Stallion is dating NBA player Klay Thompson, and the gals couldn’t be more into it. Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce got added to the Swift family group chat after Taylor’s dad had a health scare. Friends of the show (lol) UNC head coach Bill Belichick and his young girlfriend Jordon Hudson will be in a docuseries on Hulu. President Donald Trump is once again fighting with the NFL. There is huge drama in the NFL Players Association. And, finally, a round-up of athlete weddings and their florals over the past few weeks!

Madeline and Charlotte are back with another deep dive episode, this time into the Netflix documentary series America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. The gals watched both seasons — even if you haven’t, you can come along for the journey as The Sports Gossip Show unpacks the complicated dynamics of what it means to be a DCC.
The TV show follows hopeful Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders through the audition process, into training camp, and, finally, into the NFL season. The practices and game days are grueling, thanks to physically and mentally punishing dances and standards. The women who make the team often have to work several jobs to be able to afford a decent standard of living, and a huge part of the show is the cheerleaders’ fight for better pay.
The people in the series are fascinating, from the heads of the program, Kelli Finglass and Judy Trammell, to the stars of the show, dancers like Reece, Jada, Armani, Kelly V., Charly, Amanda, and many more. Madeline and Charlotte talk about the tensions between what it means to be a DCC — and, by extension, an American woman — and how to preserve your sense of self. They also talk about what it means to be a Company Woman, how DCC becomes a major part of these cheerleaders’ identities, and the similarities between dancers and athletes.

Madeline and Charlotte are back with a July 4th Wedding Bonanza. If you’re been listening to the show for a while, you’ll know that SGS goes on deep dives of athlete weddings to see how compressed the florals are. If you don’t know what that means, listen to this show and you will understand.
Given that it’s the week of the 4th of July and Summer Wedding Season is upon us, the gals thought it would be an appropriate time to take a walk down memory lane and look at the biggest athlete weddings to see how “shoved-in-there” the flowers were. This episodes takes a look at many weddings, including, but not limited to, Jalen Hurts and Bry Burrows, Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey, Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian, Brittany and Patrick Mahomes, Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens, Kate Bock and Kevin Love, Victoria and David Beckham, and many more.
The gals also decide this show should be sponsored by a compression sock company. So, Bombas, if you’re out there, give a holler.
