Episode Details

Pags opens with the sad news that Peter Cullen, the legendary voice of Optimus Prime in Transformers, has died at 85 before turning to Jelly Roll's decision to slam President Trump. Is he alienating half his audience—and whatever happened to entertainers simply entertaining? Then Pags takes a different angle on President Trump renaming Lake Ontario "Lake America" amid the U.S.-Canada trade fight: Why? What does it actually accomplish? Finally, XX-XY Athletics CEO Jennifer Sey joins Pags right in the middle of the exploding WNBA controversy. From Sophie Cunningham speaking out, to Enes Kanter Freedom being thrown out of a WNBA game, to the league declaring Kanter Freedom and Royce White ineligible for the draft, Sey says the entire mess exposes a much bigger question the WNBA needs to answer: What exactly makes someone eligible to compete in a women's league? Sey breaks down the fight over biological sex, the league's response, and why she believes this moment could have huge consequences for women's sports.
