From Angel Reese to Natasha Cloud, WNBA players aren’t just athletes—they’re style icons, cultural leaders, and labor organizers. In this episode, we unpack why this moment feels so big for women’s sports and what’s at stake as CBA negotiations heat up. With record-breaking attendance, viral tunnel fits, and a new generation of fans (and thirst traps), the league isn’t just growing—it’s dominating. Peelo G. picks 5 of their favorite tunnel fits while Lala selects her best dressed (hint they're quite different styles). Explore "Ballhalla" and the Valkyries $500 million valuation in this episode as well as what Lala thinks everyone can do to pay women athletes more $$$$.

Being iconic shouldn't mean being underpaid.

Is it emotional cheating or just "a vibe"? In this spicy episode, Lala and Peelo G. unpack the rising TikTok trend of lesbian micro-cheating—from secret DMs to thirst traps in your saved folder.

Was it a branding misstep or a WLW gift from the basketball goddesses? Lala and Peelo G. were in the building for the Golden State Valkyries' first ever preseason game.

Peelo G. and Lala break it all down with humor, insight, and a healthy dose of queer curiosity while unpacking the fan experience, the future of Bay Area WNBA, and the “lesbian-coded” symbol that might need a little rethinking.

When WNBA meets WLW energy…we see you, Valks, and we can help your marketing team with a lesbian eye for the straight gal!
