11 women's sports podcasts to help you get your head in the game
Women's sports podcasts are gaining popularity.
Every year, women's sports are gaining popularity. More and more people are tuning in to the WNBA, attending NWSL games, and even keeping up with women's college sports.
Despite the rising popularity, women's sports are still underrepresented on TV and when it comes to funding. But there are a handful of amazing podcasts that are making waves by covering every facet of the world of women's sports, and giving the athlete their due.
From queer retired athlete couples chatting about their love of the game to daily sports news deep dives to a show about the business of women's sports, there is something for every sports fan.

The Boston Celtics will look extremely weird next season
The Boston Celtics will look extremely weird next season after the team's front office dealt away much of the Celtics' 2024 title core at the start of the 2025 NBA offseason. The Celtics decided to trade veterans Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis to lower the cap hit on the roster, let key backup big man Luke Kornet walk to the San Antonio Spurs in free agency, moved on from fan favorite forward Al Horford, and cut 2025 G League Most Valuable Player JD Davison to get under the league's dreaded second apron. All told, this will leave the Celtics with a roster including new draftees Hugo Gonzalez, Amari Williams, and Max Shulga, new signees Chris Boucher, Luka Garza and Josh Minott, and recently-traded-for Anfernee Simons with the remaining Celtics from last season. The Celtics will have a very different look by default, and not all of it will be aimed at winning in the present. The folks behind the "Sly Kai" YouTube channel put together a clip looking at Boston's new roster for the coming 2025-26 regular season. Check it out below!
