Hey sports gossipers!
We are very excited about the special episode we have for you this week. With the AFC and NFC Championship games coming up on Sunday, it felt only right to welcome on our first-ever guest — the one and only Mina Kimes!
Mina is an NFL analyst for ESPN’s NFL Live, appears on Get Up, SportsCenter, First Take, and more…you may also know her from her podcast The Mina Kimes Show featuring Lenny and on her Love Is Blind recap show, Love Is Kimes.
Mina knows a good story when she sees one, and she knows the NFL better than anyone, so she’s here to help make watching the games this weekend as interesting as possible.
We cover it all: the Taylor Swift vs. Hailee Steinfeld bowl (Chiefs-Bills), the incredible rise of Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels and why moms taking pictures with celebrities is one of life’s inevitabilities, the karmic justice of Washington being great after Dan Snyder sells the team, Eagles running back Saquon Barkley’s “inner glow,” the Taylor Swiftification that would be a Chiefs three-peat, and much more.
Plus: Mina shares her Roman Empire of sports gossip — aka the story she still thinks about seven years later. Hint: it involves Jimmy Garoppolo and a specific date he went on.
As always, our shameless plug to subscribe on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube. We are — don’t know if you’ve heard — doing this ourselves, so please consider becoming a paid subscriber for $8/month or $80/year.

XOXO,
