BFFR with Sydney Leroux & Ali Riley
Megan Rapinoe & Sue Bird on the New Era of Women’s Sports, USWNT Stories, & rooming with Syd
04 Aug 2025
This week on BFFR, we’re joined by a certified power couple — seven Olympic medals between them, countless championships, and the hosts of A Touch More — Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird! Meg & Sue recap WNBA All-Star Weekend, their iconic cameo on the StudBudz livestream, and how the weekend has officially leveled up. They get real about the rise of women’s sports — Megan said it best: “I told you so.” They also debate whether the NWSL needs its own All-Star Weekend, and Syd & Meg swap wild stories from their USWNT days — including what it was really like rooming together (spoiler: it involves a face scrubber). Then we flip the script with Start, Bench, Cut — featuring Mia Hamm, Marta, Abby Wambach, Sue’s style, and yep… Megan’s hair. After that, Ali & Syd break down the Coldplay concert affair scandal that broke the internet and play your voicemails about chaotic sports parents stories. Some of y’all need Jesus.
