WNBA free agency is moving fast, and we catch up with who’s going (or staying) where and what they’re earning. And while the WNBA draft is over and Azzi Fudd was picked #1, we discuss how the NCAA tourney shifted narratives around certain players and what we think about it. 

And we welcome Elana Meyers Taylor, who won the Olympic gold medal in women’s monobob this year. She talks to us about the barriers she overcame to become the most decorated black athlete ever in the Winter Olympics, and how she pushed through the toughest year of her career to win her first gold medal ever, at age 41.

We’re bringing you our live show from Phoenix, with special guests four-time WNBA champ Chelsea Gray and Naismith Coach of the Year Shea Ralph! 

They talk about the low-scoring, but extremely eventful NCAA semifinals, the wild activity in the transfer portal, and of course the final NCAA match-up.  

Chelsea describes what she expects to see once free agency kicks off and Shea remembers playing with baby Sue at UConn 26 years ago. And Megan and Sue subject them both to a review of their more questionable fashion choices with some photos from the vault.

We’re bringing you a CBA extravaganza, with two insiders to help us unpack the WNBA’s new CBA: three-time champion and WNBPA vice president Alysha Clark, and ESPN basketball analyst Andraya Carter. 

Alysha Clark was in the room during the round-the-clock negotiations; she tells us what it was like inside the hotel conference rooms, and how the players were able to push through this transformative deal. 

Andraya Carter zooms out to look at what the accomplishment means for the business overall, how it will impact college basketball, and what the players won besides salary. Plus, she gives us a sneak peak into how she’s watching the biggest match ups during March Madness, the impending free agency bonanza, and introduces us to her life partner: a ball python named Nothing.

And since we’re down to the Sweet Sixteen, we have some THOUGHTS on who made it to the next round.

And guess who’s going to be in Phoenix in a couple weeks? We’re recording an episode of A Touch More Live, presented by AT&T, on Saturday, April 4th, at the Orpheum Theater. Tickets are on sale now, go to ATouchMoreLive.com!
