Whether it’s football (both kinds), hoops, cricket, combat sports, or the headlines shaping the sports world, Alexxa and Mark bring fresh takes, classic insights, and plenty of banter. They don’t always agree — and that’s half the fun.

Lightning Strikes, Legacy Speaks & the Ownership Gap
In this dynamic episode, we dive into the biggest headlines shaking up the sports world. First, we recap the 2025 MLB All-Star Game—who showed up, who showed out, and what it all means heading into the second half of the season. Then, we turn to a truly shocking story: a top Norwegian skier struck by lightning during training—how it happened and the response from the global sports community.
We’re also joined by Nancy Finley, author, historian, and niece of legendary Oakland A’s owner Charlie O. Finley. Nancy brings a unique perspective on the history of team ownership, the evolution of sports business, and shares powerful personal stories from her time inside one of baseball’s most controversial dynasties. Her insights fuel our discussion around the lingering Washington Redskins name controversy and the deeper cultural issues it reflects.
To wrap it all up, we tackle a provocative question: Why don’t women own major sports teams? We explore the barriers, the breakthroughs, and what it will take to change the ownership game for good.
