    Your Burning Questions for Megan and Sue, Answered
    Nov 13 2025
    We’re opening up the mailbag this week to answer your burning questions about sports, Sue and Megan’s relationship, and everything in between, like what are Megan and Sue’s biggest regrets from their careers? Should women’s soccer balls be a different size than men’s? And how do Megan and Sue prefer to be approached in public? Plus, we play a couple of rounds of 14-questions, TikTok style, to see how much Megan and Sue agree on each other’s strengths (and weaknesses). Who’s grumpier in the morning? Who requires more attention? Also in this episode: Megan and Sue discuss what Landon Donovan’s experience of getting new hair can teach us about the importance of trans rights and ensuring everyone can live in the body they choose.

  • Inside USA Basketball’s Gold-Standard Mindset with Elena Delle Donne and the WNBA's Booming Business

    Inside USA Basketball’s Gold-Standard Mindset with Elena Delle Donne and the WNBA's Booming Business
    Nov 6 2025
    We’re nearly a month out from the WNBA Finals, but we still have a lot to discuss. We start with the WNBA’s booming business, its growth in viewership, and some of the new demographics tuning in. But we also look at the historic ways in which WNBA viewership was suppressed despite the demand for women’s basketball. (For those who want to learn more, the quotes we reference during this discussion come from Those Guys Have All the Fun, by James Andrew Miller and Tom Shales). Also on the agenda: how past CBA negotiations are playing out in the league today, including prioritization and playoff bonus money. Then we welcome WNBA legend Elena Delle Donne, who helped grow the league when she joined in 2013 as part of the “The Three to See,” along with Brittney Griner and Skylar Diggins. Elena Delle Donne talks about what she misses and doesn’t miss about playing pro, how she built a life off the court during her career, and what it was like to practice in a local rec center. Plus, she describes the nerve-wracking achievement of being the first WNBA player to enter the 50-40-90 club, and what it was like to welcome Napheesa Collier to the exclusive club.

    SEASON OF FIRSTS: Natalie Nakase on Breaking Barriers and Paving the Way for What’s Next + CBA talks
    Oct 30 2025
    The WNBA season is over, but on A Touch More we’re still playing games: we’re checking out the tug of war between the players and the league as the CBA is about to expire, while five teams play a round of musical chairs to fill their empty head coaching slots. We’re also talking to Golden State Valkyries’ head coach Natalie Nakase about her epic first season, the biggest risks she took during this year, and what it’s like to play in Ballhalla. On a more serious note: Millions of Americans are losing their SNAP benefits due to the federal government shutdown and the Trump Administration’s refusal to tap emergency funds to keep the program going. We want to encourage our listeners to consider helping by contributing to your local food back: check out Feeding America to find one in your community. For those in the New York City or Seattle, here are a few organizations we recommend: NYC: Food Bank for NYC - https://www.foodbanknyc.org/ West Side Campaign Against Hunger - https://www.wscah.org/ Seattle: Rainier Valley Food Bank - https://www.rvfb.org/ North Helpline - https://northhelpline.org/ Northwest Harvest - https://www.northwestharvest.org/ A Touch More: The Podcast is produced in partnership with VOX MEDIA and TOGETHXR.
