We have a lot to catch up on, including the firestorm created by the Townsend-Ostapenko match and why that hit such a cultural nerve, the bizarre mess of a scene at Iga Swiatek's press conference (which the USTA deleted from the record), Altmaier's avoidance of Tsitsipas' drama, chatter around Carlos Alcaraz's hair, Coco Gauff's struggles, Naomi Osaka sparkling, Ben Shelton and Jack Draper's injuries, the visibility of gambling on site, and a bit more.

Caitlin Clark remains on the Fever sideline and hasn't spoken to the media in a month, and Angel Reese became emotional when reflecting on what she learned about herself during her time away from the court. On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock examines the mental health issues the WNBA is foisting on its star players, explaining that because sexual identity is such a priority in American culture, the hostility toward these straight players is purposeful. The WNBA, Whitlock illustrates, is not a sports league, but a political movement that would rather have Paige Bueckers, a lesbian, as its representative, than Caitlin Clark. Whitlock reviews other female athletes, including Simone Biles, Naomi Osaka, and Ronda Rousey, who were broken by the pressures of professional sports.

Goodall recaps how the teenager Mboko was able to go all the way on home soil, and looks at where finalist Naomi Osaka heads from here.

David is back from holiday to join Catherine and Matt in discussing week one of the Canadian Open, where lots of the big names are out, there has been loads of good matches, and both draws feel pretty open heading into the final few days. Part one - WTA Montreal. We cover Victoria Mboko's special run to the quarter-finals, Coco Gauff's recurring double fault issues, Naomi Osaka's resurgence under new coach Tomasz Wiktorowski, compelling matches involving Madison Keys, Elena Rybakina and Marta Kostyuk, the unorthodox game of Aoi Ito, and the decision to give Eugenie Bouchard a wildcard so she could retire. Part two - ATP Toronto (from 49m). How much meaning can we take from a tournament without Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic? That's the task when assessing the men's event, which has seen Alexei Popyrin mount an impressive title defence so far, Daniil Medvedev continue to slump, and compelling final set tiebreak wins for Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton. There was also a strange complaint from Alejandro Davidovich Fokina leading to sweet spot social media aggro involving Dan Evans. Part three - US Open news (from 70m15s). With most of the US Open mixed doubles pairings having been announced, we quiz David on his views, and he throws a fun name into the ring for one of the remaining wildcards. There's also the launch of the US Open's matchmaker show to discuss. Tickets are on sale now for the Tennis History Conference at Wimbledon on Tuesday 9th December.

Send us a textThe pendulum swings wildly from political upheaval to celebrity downfalls in this packed episode examining how power, race, and identity shape our experiences in an increasingly chaotic world.Jeremy Corbyn's dramatic political resurrection with his new "Your Party" has sparked hope for those disillusioned with mainstream UK politics, gaining 200,000 members overnight and highlighting the desperate need for genuine representation. Meanwhile, the shocking ethnicity pay gap statistics revealed by Dawn Butler MP (23.8% less for minorities in London) expose the hollow promises of workplace equality without accountability.The stark contrast between Rachel Reeves' tearful parliamentary moment and Diane Abbott's relentless scrutiny perfectly illustrates the unspoken rules of emotional expression for Black women in public life. We're permitted no vulnerability, no softness – a reality that extends from Parliament to corporate boardrooms, where "jokes" at our expense are weapons disguised as humor.Sean Combs conviction serves as a sobering reminder of how power corrupts and silences victims, while Marcus Fakana's imprisonment in Dubai shows how quickly young Black lives can be destroyed when race, culture, and vindictiveness collide. These stories aren't isolated incidents but threads in the same tapestry of inequality.The episode concludes by examining how even financial success comes with hidden penalties through the "HENRY" phenomenon – where high earners face diminishing returns through aggressive taxation without corresponding benefits. It all points to a system designed to maintain imbalance rather than create true opportunity.Ralph Lauren - Oak Bluffshttps://youtu.be/UOT8CUBpERE?si=v-k98k9oNBSHqWGrReferenced Diane Abbott Interviewhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMuBazWdE1ICandace Owenhttps://www.youtube.com/live/FDOnxpViQxY?si=7OhdCqQKbLigratghttps://www.youtube.com/live/PKKLk57tcLs?si=FzAcSzmotlK-ZPKGSponsorships - Email me: hello@toyatalks.com Cc: toyawashington10@gmail.comTikTok: toya_washington Twitter: @toya_w (#ToyaTalksPodcast) Snapchat: @toyawashington Instagram: @toya_washington & @toya_talks www.toyatalks.comhttps://toyatalks.com/Music (Intro and Outro) Written and created by Nomadic Star

Join our host here today to learn the art of great coaching and discover how to build belief, instill confidence, and elevate both your team and yourself to achieve your highest potential.Main Themes:Coach who people can be, not just who they are.Become a “first-class noticer” of hidden potential.Simplify to empower; complexity paralyzes.Center your team on their core identity, especially amid chaos.Keep your team in the “progress zone,” not the comfort zone.Help others flip the script on their limiting stories.Confidence is a result of action, not a prerequisite for it.Effective coaching isn't always about being liked.Use powerful, simple questions to unlock answers.Recognize that everyone is a coach in some capacity.Top 10 Quotes:“Great coaches don't coach who people are; they coach who they can be.”“She didn't see just who I was; she saw who I could be, and she never let me settle for less.”“Mental anticipation now pulls the future into the present and reverses the direction of causality.”“You don't have to make history today. You just have to play like you belong in it.”“You were born to be hockey players. You were meant to be here, and this moment is yours.”“The greatest obstacle you will face in your life is in your own mind.”“Dreams are cheap.... That's where they will stay unless you leave your comfort zone.”“Confidence is always developed by action.”“I'm not looking for the best players; I'm looking for the right players.”“What are you doing now, what is it costing you, and what do you want instead?”Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Pivot Family — you asked, and here we are. Your favorite trio is back: Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder reunite to break down the real stories behind this summer's hottest headlines. From sports and culture to relationships and personal growth, the guys tackle life's toughest pivots—and how one decision can change everything. As always, it's raw, honest, and layered with perspective—locker room wisdom served with laughs, truth, pain, and growth. Lists and rankings are just opinions, and you know what the people say about opinions, so this week, the crew reminds us why impact over income is often the better path. They dive into the cost of fame and the price of trusting the wrong people—like Rams star Puka Nacua's public relationship fallout, and how young athletes with good hearts often get burned. Tyler Lockett's story of remaining a virgin until marriage at 30 opens up a powerful conversation on discipline, faith, identity, and resisting the pressure to perform—on and off the field. But you already know—Channing's take is going to have you in tears laughing, the things he comes up with is just one of a kind! When it comes to sports and culture no topic's off limits: Cam Newton's callout of Jayden Daniels—was it personal? RC says this was a moment Cam should have taken a chance to be wrong instead of go for the sophomore slump chatter. Gillie da Kid's “young bulls ain't taking my spot” energy—is that confidence or stuck in old ways? Asante Samuel coming for Chris Carter—what does it say about legends letting go or how OG's treat rising stars? Then things get a little more serious.... Naomi Osaka's emotional return to the spotlight sparks a vulnerable dialogue on mental health, pressure, and what it means when even greatness doesn't feel like enough. The guys speak openly about loss, injuries, failure, and the quiet battles no one sees. And finally, with Texas devastated by recent flooding, they reflect on how life can shift in an instant—regardless of status or success. Tragedy doesn't discriminate. And as always, The Pivot is about more than just moving on—it's about moving forward with intention, purpose, and gratitude. We hope this episode gives you something—a laugh, a new perspective, or the clarity you didn't know you needed, because that's what family is for! Learn more about your ad choices.

In Part 1 we discuss the final match of the day and the improvements shown by Raducanu despite her eventual loss to the world no 1. We also look at the defeat of Madison Keys by Laura Siegemund and ask if that's something we should have seen coming, analyse the losses for Naomi Osaka and Elina Svitolina, and discuss big wins for Sonay Kartal and Amanda Anisimova.In part 2 (49m48s) we look at all the men's results including Alcaraz's four set victory against Struff, Fritz's continued progress through the draw, and Rublev's improved form as he beat Adrian Mannarino. There was even more Matt-coded content as Jarry beat Fonseca and Ben Shelton added to history with a 70 second serve-dominated winning game on the resumption of his match.
