    Swiftie skeptics, this one's for you. Caroline successfully pulled Blake into the buzz around Taylor Swift’s album drop on boyfriend Travis Kelce’s pod, “New Heights”.

    Travis’ Engagement Era, Jokic’s Horse Girl Energy, and Bend It Like Beckham’s Back
    Jul 29 2025
    This episode of Well Played was recorded before a shooting in New York City on Monday in which the NFL headquarters may have been the target. Police say a gunman armed with a long gun killed at least five people in a Manhattan office building, including himself. While a motive has not been confirmed, authorities say a note found in the shooter’s wallet referenced the brain disease CTE. We want to note that week’s episode includes conversations about football and the NFL that were recorded prior to news of the shooting. Mr. Taylor Swift – aka Travis Kelce – singlehandedly brought us Christmas in July with a 13-photo Instagram dump featuring mostly him and Taylor. Blake and Caroline discuss deeply important info about the couple, including thoughts on Travis losing his 90s heartthrob hair, their potential engagement era, and Travis’ cameo in Happy Gilmore 2. Meanwhile, Sophie Cunningham shared the punishment she received for telling refs how she really feels about them via TikTok. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: Freaking out over Hailee Steinfeld mentioning Well Played in her newsletter, Beau Society Who’s backing up Micah Parsons for being Jerry Jones’ public enemy of the week Nikola Jokic proving he’s just a horse-lover who happens to be great at basketball What Bend It Like Beckham and the NWSL have in common Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s IG: @cghendy theSkimm’s IG: @theskimm For info on when and how to watch your favorite NWSL team, visit nwslsoccer.com/schedule/regular-season.

    Caitlin Claps Back, Happy Gilmore Returns, and a Very Hailee Hard Knocks
    Jul 22 2025
    The WNBA All Stars made a statement with just six words on a black shirt that read, “Pay Us What You Owe Us.” The tension continues to mount between the league and its players, who are asking for better pay and work conditions in their new CBA. But after an awkward press conference – where one All Star threw another under the bus – fans were left wondering what the strategy is and how they’ll accomplish it without some solidarity. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: A long recap of Caroline’s wedding and mini-moon and an even longer recap about Blake’s trip to the All Star Game The real story behind the Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd hard launch Which celebs – and how many – make a cameo in the Happy Gilmore sequel Why the Bills were chosen for Hard Knocks despite having a great record Where A’ja Wilson keeps her Olympic gold medals, a year out from the Paris Olympics Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s IG: @cghendy theSkimm’s IG: @theskimm PS: Did you know theSkimm has a sports newsletter?

    Meg thee Stallion Cuffs Klay, Sinner and Świątek Slay, and Tobin Heath’s Next Play
    Jul 15 2025
    Meg thee Stallion is the newest NBA WAG. While we love to see our girl happy, we’re a little concerned about what it all means for Hot Girl Summer going forward. Across the pond, Swiatek and Sinner swept the Wimby finals, and the Royal family got first-row seats to the action…except for seven-year-old Prince Louis, who respectfully declined to show face. He’s not beating the iPad kid allegations. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: A quick intro about our guest host, Greydy Diaz WNBA 🤝NWSL – the women hoopers investing in a different ball-game Which Wimbledon celebs in attendance we’d want to sit next to Whether Olivia Culpo’s maternity hospital bag was over-the-top What it would take for Luka Doncic to hang out with us Greydy’s IG: @greydydiaz Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke theSkimm’s IG: @theskimm PS: Did you know theSkimm has a sports newsletter?

    Courting Season at Wimbledon, Burrow’s Batmobile Reversal, and Live Tasting the Strawberry Pasta
    Jul 9 2025
    Wimbledon’s serving more than just tennis. Celebs donned their Wimbledon whites while several top-seeded players bid us a “pip-pip cheerio” in early exits. Only three Americans remain, including Ben Shelton, who’s racking up wins and admirers – just ask Trinity Rodman. In other tennis news, Iga Swiatek shared her favorite post-game meal of strawberry and sour cream pasta. Naturally, Blake and Caroline had to try it live. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: The literal bloody hell moment one celeb had in her Wimbledon whites Which WNBA legend is set to get the first-of-its-kind statue made of her The real reason why Joe Burrow paused his $3 million Batmobile order Why renting out a French chatêau couldn’t get Stefon Diggs out of the dog house How Chicago Cubs fans made it clear they’re not members of Alex Cooper’s “Daddy Gang” Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s IG: @cghendy theSkimm’s IG: @theskimm PS: Did you know theSkimm has a sports newsletter?

    Jul 1 2025
    This week in Pretty Boys of the NFL, Tom Brady apparently hit it off with Sydney Sweeney at the Bezos-Sànchez wedding across the pond in Venice. Blake begs the very important question — can Tom Brady even flirt? Back home, Tight End University kicked off, where players came for the football and stayed for an impromptu Taylor Swift concert. Thanks, Travis.

  • Paige and Azzi Hard Launch, OKC’s Gen Z Kings, and Aaron Rodgers’ (Fake) Marriage

    Paige and Azzi Hard Launch, OKC’s Gen Z Kings, and Aaron Rodgers’ (Fake) Marriage
    Jun 24 2025
    It was a winning week for Gen-Z ballers. Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd finally hard-launched their relationship on Instagram after months of speculation. Then, the Oklahoma City Thunder won the NBA Championship with an average roster age of 24.7. Subtract a couple of pandemic years (girl math), and they’re basically 22. Their post-win celebration? Let's just say it reflected their age. In this episode of Well Played, we also cover: The only woman who could get Stephen A. Smith to… stop talking How Sophie Cunningham stood on business — and what it reveals about WNBA reffing Tom Brady proving yet again that he’s the GOAT at Fanatics Fest How Kylie Kelce plans to help Dawn Staley’s post-coaching dreams come true Shai Gilgeous-Alexander shows why he’s league *and* dad MVP after Game 7 Blake’s IG: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s IG: @cghendy theSkimm’s IG: @theskimm PS: Did you know theSkimm has a sports newsletter?
