Nobody id rather go to for my tempo updates than Cathryn and Freddie!!!
Cathryn and Freddie have a great balance of talking about the number of basketball and also having a fun time with it.
Freddie and Cathryn are the best always love listening to them talk about the WNBA
Really love this podcast. Love the banter and vibes. So excited about a WNBA team in Canada. Love - from LA
It’s really hard to think that these people, especially the man, has anything of value to add with his commentary when he doesn’t even know how to say the players names and is commenting on 2025 on “Sides” salary in the WNBA when she so not coaching! You only have to watch one game to hear their names properly pronounced - get it together man!
