  • The Power of Storytelling in Sports with Jen Lada
    Feb 24 2026

    Welcome back to Babes 'n' Sports, with your hosts, longtime sports babes and mamas Jamie Hersch and Tory Zawacki Roy.

    This week, College GameDay's Jen Lada joins the pod to reflect on her journey from covering local sports in Wisconsin as a single mom to navigating the weekly college football grind with three kids at home.

    Jamie shares highlights from her family’s recent trip to Zion National Park and why stepping away from the daily routine can help the whole family reset. Tory and Jen also dive into the challenge — and reward — of long-form storytelling in sports, and how motherhood shapes the way they tell the most meaningful, heart-tugging stories.

    Just another week with your mom friends… but make it sports.
