LeBron James is Gracie Abrams’ muse, Bill Belichick is going to college, Joe Burrow is not happy, and Travis Hunter’s girlfriend sets the record straight

Plus: Taylor and Travis have to deal with work holiday parties like the rest of us.

Hello sports gossipers!

First of all, we hope you’re all surviving the various holiday parties you have to go to. Some are great, and some are a delight to skip.

If it makes you feel any better, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have to deal with mandatory appearances at holiday parties just like the rest of us (kind of). We talk about that on today’s show and, as always, much, much more.

Here is the usual shameless plug to subscribe on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube. Every rating and review really helps, and we’re so grateful to those of you who’ve taken to social media to tell your followers about us. Means the world.

As always, a friendly reminder that we’re (in unison) doing this ourselves, so please consider becoming a paid subscriber for $8/month or $80/year.

Let’s get into this week’s topics:

  • We start where you all knew we would: talking about how Magic Johnson went to Erewhon to try D’Angelo Russell’s new expensive smoothie.

  • We learn that a LeBron James meme greatly influenced Gracie Abrams’ music, and Charlotte reveals her personal connection to Gracie. 

  • Gracie, come on the podcast!!!!

  • Travis Kelce had to go to a Chiefs holiday party on Taylor Swift’s birthday, but they made it work (he’s a company man!).

  • Taylor also visited kids in a Kansas City hospital and joked about the 49ers, which was all very sweet and wholesome.

  • Also, shoutout Kylie Kelce’s great new podcast. 

  • Bill Belichick is the new head coach of the University of North Carolina’s football team because the NFL didn’t want him, so we wonder if his girlfriend, 24-year-old Jordon, is pulling the strings?

  • And then a quick Aaron Rodgers update involving…curses?

  • Joe Burrow’s house was robbed while he was playing the Cowboys in Dallas and a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, Olivia Ponton, was there.

  • We don’t really know what’s going on, but we do know that Joe really seems to be going through it.

  • Heisman winner Travis Hunter also seems to be going through it — because people are mad that his girlfriend, ​​Leanna Lenee, didn’t stand up at the Heisman ceremony. She attempted to set the record straight, and it’s all pretty silly. 

  • Plus: Ohio wants to make planting flags a felony, and the Pop Tart bowl just keeps getting better and better.

We hope you’re all having a wonderful holiday season, and that your sports gossip is all merry and bright.

As always, please feel free to reach out via DMs or email and let us know any of your thoughts. Hearing from you all makes our days!

XOXO,
