Oh my gosh. Are you part of the Good Follow family, Lisa?
I am part of your Good Follow family. You did a great job, Roz.
I'm a fan.
How does Lisa Leslie evaluate Angel Reese's performance and potential for her third WNBA season?
You already know that. Thank you so much. You know, I remember like early, like we're talking like The 2010s and those years out at a college meeting you and telling you I wanted to be a broadcaster and, you know, could I get some advice? And like, for real, the Lisa Leslie at the time absolutely had kind words, advice and always like, you know, tapped in with me. I really always appreciated you.
You know, I always talk about I love being a role model, but then it's like when you actually when action, you know what I mean? That's an action. You asked me to help you do something and I connected you. I think back then it was maybe it was Fox or something, but you did. It's still like, yeah, it's like. do it you know what I mean like help other people I don't know I just I'm happy because you never know how it comes full circle yeah like the fact that we're working together you don't know one day you could be my boss like you just never know um yeah I don't know I think it's just important so I was happy you asked and I was like oh do I never let down people when I say I'm going to do something I follow through and do it and especially young people to me I think that's so important so I was so happy to help and look at you you just
You did all kinds of stuff. Warriors. I was like, wait, that's that girl.
No, I'm just kidding. No facts. That's how it be.
What factors contribute to the GOAT debate surrounding A'ja Wilson?
And, you know, actually taking me down memory lane, like it means a lot too, because I think people see you with, you know, you mentor a lot of the biggest star up and coming stars. But like at the time I was a nice starter coming out of Stanford university, but you know, I wasn't Nneka Agumake. I wasn't Jane Appel, but like, it wasn't about like what your status was. It was like, yo, there's a young person that wants help. And you absolutely did that. And you did connect me with somebody at Fox. I remember that. So now I just just giving you flowers because actually, you know, you wear so many hats in addition to being a beautiful human being. I see you in commercials. The fans are constantly calling on you to step up into something.
They want you to be a commissioner. They want you to be a coach. But one of your most recent roles that you're crushing is that of an elite podcaster, right? So how has it been hosting Between the Lines and being in this world with us as a podcaster?
You know, honestly... Here's the deal. This is my real honest answer. I know that my spiritual gift is my ability to speak, but I oftentimes am really a homebody and I don't necessarily need attention or to be in front of the camera just talking about anything.
How does Lisa Leslie compare A'ja Wilson's impact to past WNBA legends?
So I feel like whenever I do a podcast or speak on anything, it really comes from the heart and I really try to give my honest answer. And I'm a truth teller. So if it's things that I feel is not going to benefit us as a whole, WNBA or me individually or whatever it is that I'm talking about, I don't really participate in it. I'm not a person who gives out. I don't believe in negative energy and giving out negative energy. I don't read negative stuff. I just keep it moving. If I don't like it, I keep it moving. That's the kind of person I am. So I feel like podcasts sometimes I get a little overwhelmed with them because everybody has one and They're everywhere. And I don't like clickbait. Like, I don't like to just talk about something just to be like, oh, I want people to see this.
