Podcast appearances and mentions of Candace Parker

This show is presented by Unfiltered Brothers and WOKE Podcast with hosts, Derek and Aaron. We will be giving our honest, unfiltered takes throughout the NBA/basketball season. We will be covering on and off the court topics from youth to professional level.We start the conversation off with some football talk and get into the Teddy Bridgewater situation (10:30). Somehow, we transition into all the dildos being thrown on the court at the WNBA games (23:05). We give our opinion on Candace Parker's WNBA players ranking and if a certain fanbase overreacted (32:50). Next, we get into the new off-season signings and contract extensions (42:33). The next topics are KD's Mount Rushmore of small forwards and Kendrick Perkins's top 10 point guards. We also give our top 5 in each position (1:11:15). Our Reaching or Teaching consist of two topics: Are the '09 and '10 Lakers teams the worst teams to win back-to-back and was the firing of Shannon Sharpe from ESPN fair (1:37:15)? Leave a rate and review. Thanks for the support.

It is rare that a journalist can speak to the growth of the WNBA not just from the perspective of coverage, but from its very conception.Christine Brennan began her career as a sports journalist by breaking barriers. After receiving her master's degree from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, she became the first female sports reporter for the Miami Herald in 1981.While working for the Washington Post in 1985, she broke the NFL's gender barrier and began covering the Washington Football team—almost three decades before the franchise dropped its racially insensitive name and became the Commanders."There were moments when people did not want me around," Brennan recalls. "Even the coach, Joe Gibbs."Brennan says Gibbs did not believe a woman should be in the locker room. "This was '85 and the NFL was the last of the big leagues to have an equal access policy."Eventually, her professionalism turned the tide, even winning over Coach Gibbs—begrudgingly. Brennan recalls Gibbs saying, "I personally don't believe it's right, but I've been told we're doing it. So we will do it. She will be treated right, and that's the end of the conversation."Since then, Brennan has covered countless athletes and events, including Tiger Woods, Venus and Serena Williams, and multiple Olympic Games.While her comprehensive sports coverage is impressive, it is her reporting on the WNBA since its infancy that gives her a unique perspective on the league's evolution.She covered foundational players like Sheryl Swoopes and Cynthia Cooper as they helped establish the league as legitimate and highly competitive. Legends like Lisa Leslie, Maya Moore, and Candace Parker paved the way for today's stars like Napheesa Collier and A'ja Wilson, who have set the benchmark for excellence in the league.Yet without winning a single championship in college and without a single playoff appearance so far, the name most synonymous with the WNBA right now is Caitlin Clark.From her long-shot three-pointers to buzzer-beaters in college, Clark became a fan favorite. But she also became a flashpoint for racists and homophobic fans to share their ideals. Clark is the star who has ushered in sold-out arenas, lucrative TV deals, and higher endorsements across the league. A white player from middle America has walked into the house built by Black women and captured mainstream attention in unprecedented ways.In her new book "Her Game: Caitlin Clark and the Revolution in Women's Sports," Brennan asks poignant questions about race, recognition, and the complexities of the WNBA's newfound popularity.The central question she explores: If everything about Clark's game remained the same but she was Black, would she receive the same level of mainstream attention and endorsement opportunities?The resounding answer is no — but she sees this moment as growing pains for a promising WNBA future rather than an insurmountable problem.In this episode of the Jackie Rae Show, Brennan discusses her groundbreaking career, the role of race in sports coverage, and what the WNBA could have done better to protect its players during this period of explosive growth.

Send us a textWe explore the "Player Matter Formula" - how production and origin determine an athlete's importance to their franchise and city, with special emphasis on the controversial claim that hometown hero Derrick Rose matters more to Chicago than six-time champion Michael Jordan.• Production (championships, stats, accolades) generally outweighs origin (hometown connections) in determining player importance• The D-Rose vs Jordan debate hinges on whether being Chicago-born outweighs bringing six championships• D-Wade vs Udonis Haslem presents a similar question for Miami – championship production vs hometown loyalty• WNBA comparisons include Maya Moore vs Lindsay Whalen (Minnesota Lynx) and Candace Parker vs Sylvia Fowles (Chicago Sky)• Players who bring championships to their teams tend to matter more regardless of where they were born• Championships create lasting legacies that generally surpass hometown connections in the "Player Matter Formula"Please make sure to like, subscribe, comment, and tell anyone who's anyone about the show.

If there's one thing Candace Parker does best, it's winning. In today's episode, Ryan sits down with basketball legend Candace Parker to talk about championships, pressure, and what it takes to be one of the greats. Candace talks about how being elite changes the way you see the world (and yourself), why winning never really feels like enough, and what happens when your whole identity is built around being the best. She opens up about legacy, ambition, parenting, and why she doesn't go a year without reading The Alchemist. Candace Parker is one of the most influential athletes of all time. After being selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2008 WNBA Draft by the Los Angeles Sparks, following a champion career at Tennessee, Parker went on to become the first player to earn WNBA MVP and Rookie of the Year honors in the same season, win three WNBA championship titles, and take home two Olympic gold medals.

It's been a long time since I've had the desire to record an episode, but I had to fire up the mic when people are trying to slander Candace Parker. The lines have been blurred between telling the truth and being a fan and this is the perfect time to voice my opinion. We should be able to talk about basketball without being called a hater simply because you don't agree with my thoughts. People are really saying Candace Parker is jealous of Angel Reese and I Respectfully Disagree..... Tap In!

In this episode of The Key and Mang Audio Experience, we unpack a rare and real moment from WNBA legend Candace Parker. When speaking about her relationship (or lack of one) with UConn's Geno Auriemma, she said:“We just don't like each other—and we have to be okay in society with being like, ‘I don't like you. You don't like me. Let's keep it moving.'”This kind of honesty isn't something you typically hear in the mainstream, especially in sports culture. We break down what that moment says about boundaries, mutual respect, and emotional maturity, and how social media has made it harder to speak freely without being misunderstood.We also get into how we personally handle conflict, the non-verbal cues that give us away, and why it's okay not to vibe with everyone—as long as it's done with respect.Not every connection needs to be forced. Sometimes, the healthiest thing you can do is move on and protect your peace.

On this episode of In Case You Missed It, Khristina dives into the electric intersection of basketball and fashion with LA Sparks forward Rickea Jackson and celebrity stylist Brittany Hampton.

Jesse's drive also extends to making a difference. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he co-founded the Makin' Lemonade Fund. This initiative successfully mobilized over 400 students, impressively raising $130,000 in only 45 days to support vital nonprofit organizations during a critical time. His work and perspectives have garnered significant attention, with features in prestigious outlets such as The Wall Street Journal, ESPN, Adobe, Fast Company, Inc., Business Insider, and an appearance on the Dr. Phil Show. Jesse's approach is partly shaped by his education at Cornell University, where he studied Persuasion and Social Influence. This academic background provides a unique lens through which he views marketing and entrepreneurship, particularly in understanding the nuances of connecting with younger generations. Vyber Media was founded to redefine performance marketing, rooted in ambition, digital understanding, and delivering impactful results. For More Info: https://www.vybermedia.com/

This week on Queer News with Anna DeShawn — we're talking legal wins and loses, representation on-screen, and unmatched excellence on the basketball court. A U.S. federal appeals court deals a blow to Trump's anti-trans military ban, affirming the right of our trans siblings to serve with pride. But across the pond, the UK Supreme Court drops a devastating ruling stripping trans people of legal recognition.  In culture, we lift up the groundbreaking TLC show Jay & Pamela — a love story breaking barriers around disability, queerness, and visibility. We mourn the cancellation of Clean Slate, Laverne Cox's bold sitcom, and celebrate WNBA icon Candace Parker as the LA Sparks announce her jersey retirement this Pride Month. And to close, we honor Black lesbian poet Pat Parker for Lesbian Visibility Week with her searing classic, my lover is a woman. This episode is a ride through pain, pride, power — and the poetry that keeps us grounded. Let's get into it, family.

With the retirement of players like Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird, Candace Parker, and Elena Delle Donne – and the ascension of a new crop of talent in Caitlin Clark, Paige Bueckers, Angel Reese, and more – a new era is upon us in the WNBA. Zena, Ben, and Sabreena gather to talk about this moment in the W – what it means for gameplay and for the business side of things, and the notable differences in the types of players joining the league. Then, Ben speaks to Washington Mystics GM – and former Stanford and WNBA baller – Jamila Wideman, whose team drafted 3 out of the top 6 picks in the 2025 WNBA Draft.–Visit our YouTube page! https://www.youtube.com/@No-OffseasonFind us on socials:-Instagram: @tanooffseason-TikTok: @no_offseason-Zena on X: @itszenakeita-Ben on X: @benpickman-Sabreena on BlueSky: @sabreenajm Hosted on Acast.
