Formula 1 races seem to have everything – the pomp of an A-list party, exotic locations, excited fans, and global superstars on the grid. So what's missing from this scene? Women behind the wheel. Formula 1 hasn't had a female driver qualify for a race in almost 50 years and as women's sports continues to make great strides, the world of elite racing seems to be falling behind. Today, ESPN's Alyssa Roenigk brings the story of two drivers working together to break barriers in the world of motorsports one race at a time. For more on this story, watch Roenigk in a new documentary that spotlights the women breaking barriers in motorsports for the Emmy-winning "In Real Life" series, premiering Sunday, June 2 at 8 p.m. Eastern, 7p.m. Central on Scripps News.

While we've hit a break in Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, Simone Biles' leg has just begun. Biles returned to competition at the US Classic in early August, where she became an all around champion after a two-year hiatus from gymnastics. Back in 2021, Biles pulled out of the Tokyo Olympics due to mental health concerns - and many wondered if that was the last time we'd ever see her on the mat. But now, she intends to return to the Games at the 2024 Paris Olympics. So today, Alyssa Roenigk tells us why Simone Biles is ready to begin again…and how since Tokyo, everything has changed for US gymnastics. Learn more about your ad choices.

Mikaela Shiffrin is only 27 years old, and she's already the GOAT. Her dominance of alpine skiing is in the same category as Michael Jordan, Tom Brady, and Serena Williams…and she has an opportunity to further build on her legacy this weekend by surpassing the 34-year-old record for wins currently held by Swedish legend Ingemar Stenmark in his home country. It's a far cry from where Shifrrin was a year ago, when she crashed out of the Beijing Olympics three times while still mourning her father's death. So today, as Shiffrin chases history, Alyssa Roenigk brings us up to speed on Mikaela's quest for greatness…and gives us a crash course in a snowy sport that's picking up speed.

Brady sits down with Alyssa Roenigk of ESPN to talk about her feature on Burke Mountain Academy Mikaela Shiffrin. They talk about her recent success on slopes, chasing history and overcoming obstacles.

Brady is back on a Friday, talking about the interesting story of the same guy coaching varsity boys and girls basketball at Middlebury Union High School. Brady also talks about if Joe Burrow can become the face of the NFL and he talks with Alyssa Roenigk of ESPN about Mikaela Shiffrin's dominance on the slopes, and her growth as a person.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and it's a major topic in sports right now, as more elite athletes share personal struggles. Olympic skier Mikaela Shiffrin is one of the greatest of all time, hurtling down the slopes at breakneck speed. But in Beijing this year she stopped just seconds into a race where she was expected to take gold. Alyssa Roenigk talked to Shiffrin about this moment in Beijing, and how she's taken a new approach to speaking her mind, public scrutiny and processing family grief. Learn more about your ad choices.

The NCAA Women's Gymnastics Championships begin today in Fort Worth, but you'd be forgiven if you mistook it for the Tokyo Olympics this past summer. That's because no sport has been transformed by the Name, Image and Likeness revolution across college athletics as much as Women's Gymnastics. Previously, Olympic stars like Tokyo All-Around Gold Medalist Suni Lee had to choose between cashing in on the lucrative endorsement deals that come with Olympic success, or competing in college. Now, under NIL, that is no longer an issue, meaning Lee will compete for an NCAA title this weekend as a freshman at Auburn. And Lee is not alone. Fellow US Olympians Jade Carey (Oregon St.), Jordan Chiles (UCLA), and Grace McCallum (Utah) will all be competing in Fort Worth, in what is shaping up to be perhaps the most competitive NCAA championships ever. Alyssa Roenigk breaks down how the sport is being transformed, as well as the names and teams you need to know before this weekend's championship.

Spain and Fitz talk about the NFL in crisis--a Congress roundtable about the Washington Commanders, the Brian Flores lawsuit & more. Quickies covers a disastrous town hall for the Blackhawks and WNBA free agency. Plus former Bills GM Doug Whaley on the Rooney Rule and the role of Black GMs in the NFL, Monica McNutt on the NBA All-Star Reserves, the Knicks' struggles and the battle for the East and Alyssa Roenigk gives her Top Five Athletes & Stories to watch at the Beijing Olympics. Plus, a Nod to the Pod with USA Hockey captain Kendall Coyne Schofield, more damning accusations against Dan Snyder and what's wrong with the Nets?

The Winter Olympics begin this week, but if you're anything like us, you probably need some help getting up to speed on who to watch out for in Beijing. There's Red Gerard, defending gold medalist in snowboarding from the 2018 Winter Games in PyeongChang, whose family just might be the Gronkowskis of the Olympics. There is the most decorated American skier ever, Mikaela Shriffin, who finally gets the spotlight to herself with the retirement of Lindsey Vonn. And then there's Chloe Kim, who famously won gold in 2018 at the age of 18…but her path back to the snow has been a rocky one. Our resident Olympics correspondent Alyssa Roenigk is here to fill you in on everything you need to know for the 2022 Winter Games. 

The Bulls are back--or are they? A roller coaster of emotions as Spain gets pumped up--and then deflated--about the Bulls' big free agency signings. Plus, the Lakers add 'Melo and more, Steph Curry gets paid and what's gonna happen with the Blazers? Spain and Fitz ask Nick Friedell about all things NBA. Plus, NFL Quickies, Olympic news, a bombshell report for the NCAA, a gymnastics recap with Alyssa Roenigk and Julie Foudy on the USWNT trying to get back home with at least a bronze.

The Tokyo Games has already seen several upsets, but none more surprising than Simone Biles' stumble on the vault and then her withdrawal from the team gymnastics final. Despite initial speculation of an injury, Biles said she stepped away out of concern for her mental health and whether her performance might hurt the team's chances. ESPN's Alyssa Roenigk explains the lead up and the day of Biles' withdrawal, what it means for the rest of the gymnastics competition at the Olympics, and beyond. Then Pablo shares what Hidilyn Diaz becoming the first Olympic gold medalist for the Philippines means to him. 

At the Tokyo Games, the U.S. women's gymnastics team has found itself in an unfamiliar position: second place after the first qualifying event. Poised to help bring the team back to the top is 18-year-old phenom Sunisa Lee, second in the world to Simone Biles. Lee has balanced the weight of family tragedy — and the pride of being the first Olympian of Hmong ethnicity — all the way to Japan. ESPN's Alyssa Roenigk charts Sunisa's path to gold so far, and the uneven, high-stakes road ahead. Then, Brian Windhorst updates us on men's basketball, after Team USA's loss to France, and why we might see more L's ahead.

This podcast is now a Simone Biles stan account. ESPN's Alyssa Roenigk joins to talk about the Olympics as a problematic fave and Biles as an unproblematic one. Women's gymnastics did a number on a lot of us as young people — the unrealistic body expectations, the idea of “tough love” as the best way to coach. That culture is changing and let's celebrate that! On Adorables Like These, time to talk to the “sensitive one” in the Pod Save America boy band, Tommy Vietor, who tells us about his bath mat with a pulse, Lucca.

Simone Biles has been the face of USA Gymnastics ever since she began competing on the international stage. The most decorated gymnast of all time has sealed her position on the U.S. Olympic roster for the second straight games, and will travel to Tokyo with a scary good team. ESPN's Alyssa Roenigk shares what she saw at the Olympic trials, and breaks down the moves that make Biles legendary.

Australian two-time world champion Tyler Wright was born to surf. She achieved incredible victories in the water, while enduring tremendous loss in her personal life. This combination of fame and chaos nearly broke her. As she was falling in love with her then-girlfriend, Wright also wasn't sure her sport could accept her. It took a crippling illness for Wright to decide she was not only going to keep surfing, but do so while being unapologetically herself. Alyssa Roenigk reports on this incredible journey.

Winning a combined 30 Olympic and World Championship medals, Simone Biles is the most decorated American gymnast, full stop. And her story intersects with the two most famous and winning coaches of USA Gymnastics, Bela and Martha Karolyi. The Karolyis are the subject of a new 30 for 30 investigative podcast, "Heavy Medals: Inside the Karolyi Gymnastics Empire." It includes a look at their complicity in the rampant sexual abuse of athletes by medical director Larry Nassar, and how Biles navigated their restrictive culture and spoke out against abuse. ESPN's Alyssa Roenigk shares the story of how Biles found a way to win outside the norms of USA Gymnastics and the Karolyis.

00:00-35:00: ESPN 30 for 30 "Heavy Medals: Inside the Karolyi Gymnastics Empire" Co-Director Alyssa Roenigk joins the show to talk about the seven-part series, the good, bad and ugly of Bela and Martha Karolyi, what's next for Alyssa, documentaries never being more popular than now, the future of gymnastics, why the 1996 Olympics were so huge for the sport, what makes Simone Biles who she is, the Karolyi's height as coaches, Alyssa's career so far and moving to New York to work for ESPN Magazine and more!
