Madeline is in the Galapagos (extremely cool) so Charlotte is flying solo today with some help from Sports Gossip Show friends Grace Raynor and Jessica Smetana! Grace is a college football writer at The Athletic and Jess is the co-host of The Echoes, a Notre Dame podcast. They are both brilliant and SGS Shareholders should follow them if you don’t already!

First, a monologue from Charlotte: Lena Dunham went to a Chiefs game with Taylor Swift (and Selena Gomez), but the Chiefs’ vibes are bad! They’re 6-7 and below .500 for the first time in December since 2012. Stanford soccer invited Taylor Swift to the women’s college cup game in Kansas City — she didn’t seem to go, and Florida State won anyway. Washington Spirit star and NWSL free agent Trinity Rodman had a deal blocked by the NWSL commissioner. Silly! Pay her! And, finally, Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers went to a Knicks game on behalf of Reese’s.

Then it’s time to bring in Grace to talk about Ole Miss and Lane Kiffin’s breakup, and how Nick Saban’s daughter teased a messy Lane Kiffin story on TikTok. She also explains the shockingly good recruiting under Bill Belichick at UNC, the bad recruiting at Penn State, and a whole lot of other dramatic CFB stories!

Jess then pops in to explain the College Football Playoffs and why people were apoplectic when Notre Dame was left out. This is a great explainer for anyone confused about college football — Jess makes it make more sense than it deserves to make.

Thanks to Jess and Grace and all of the Shareholders out there!
