  • Women Going to First Base Together
    Dec 15 2025

    Emily and RaLene reconvene after a small hiatus only partially due to the fact that they moved to a new continent. ;) They're talking all things women's baseball, WNBA salary drama, and our 2025 Wrapped-sheet.

  • The Rainbow Road We All Walk
    Aug 11 2025

    What, you've never heard of Queerio Kart? That's because we just invented it. Think Beerio Kart but with gay people playing it. The goal is to finish your drink before the end of the race (or in our case, Grand Prix), and you can't drink and drive — duh. We make it sporty by asking each other existential questions about the WNBA while trying not to drive off Rainbow Road!

  • Are Sports Just Lesbian Pinterest?
    Jun 4 2025

    It's been a busy, sports-filled few weeks for RaLene and Emily! Between the start of the WNBA season and a trip to Southern California, they've been to lots of stadiums to cheer on their teams — and realized they have both a lot and little in common with their fellow fans. The duo talks about some of the pros and cons of the average lesbian fan experience.

  • The Supernatural Freakshow — Part 2
    May 17 2025

    Emily and RaLene pick right up where they left off last episode, going through Rounds 2 and 3 before crowing the best mascot in the WNBA. Hop on their delirium-riddled rollercoaster ride to find out which mascot would taste most like a Spindrift, who's serving the most face, and most importantly, who walks away as sole survivor.

  • The Mascots We Met Along the Way — Part 1
    May 15 2025

    When last week's episode took an interesting segue into the wild world of mascots, Emily and RaLene were left with more questions than answers — why is everyone obsessed with Ellie the Elephant? What makes Freddy Fever so...diabolical? And what happens to mascots when their franchises bite the dust? Paired with the hankering for bracketology the two have had since March, and a brilliant idea was born: Mascot Madness, Hunger Games-style.


    That's right. We made a ⁠⁠bracket⁠⁠ pitting the WNBA's mascots against each other. Today, Emily and RaLene go through the play-in tournament and Round 1 to see which mascots are moving on to the next level of competition. Stay tuned for Part 2 next week!


    Check out the⁠⁠ visual guide ⁠⁠for this episode (highly recommended for this one) and ⁠⁠fill out a bracket⁠⁠ of your own for a chance to win a prize. Read ⁠⁠this article⁠⁠ by Kiri Oler that we got some inspiration from and for informed takes on mascot popularity.
