What's Going On, In This World Of Sports with Jemele Hill

When Jemele Hill and Cari Champion get together, it always makes for a great conversation and a worthy episode!

We kick things off with the state of women’s basketball: where it’s thriving, where it needs support, and why players like Paige Beckers and Caitlin Clark are changing the game, even as they battle injuries and media hype. Because let’s be honest, rivalries make the story, but so does real representation.

Then we zoom out: NBA coaching shakeups, headline-grabbing trades, and, of course, the drama between Stephen A. Smith and LeBron James. We talk about what it all really means and how it reflects on the game and the culture.

Then, Jemele and Cari get into the ethics of sports journalism. The pressure to be first vs. the responsibility to get it right. Discretion, fan culture, and how the media landscape is shifting under our feet. This episode is a whole masterclass on how sports and storytelling keep evolving…whether the world is ready or not.
