A Touch More with Sue Bird & Megan Rapinoe

This week on A Touch More, we’re live from Sports Beach 2025 in Cannes, France with Tara Davis-Woodhall and Hunter Woodhall. The gold-medal winning track and field power couple break down their mission to bring more attention to their sport, why track needs to become easier to watch, and how they balance each other out as partners. And since this the very first time we’ve interviewed another gold-medal couple, we asked them to give us one of their Bickers of the Week and they got to play Are you a Tara or Are you a Hunter?

A Touch More kicks off Pride Month with Megan’s very scientific theory that you can’t win championships without gay players. We get into some WNBA news, with Kate Martin’s whopping 14 points in six minutes (check out Sue’s interview with Kate on Bird’s Eye View on Friday) and we try to figure out how the Fever will handle its slew of point guard injuries. Then we chat with Angel City FC teammates Ali Riley and Syd Leroux about their podcast BFFR, what it means to control their own narratives, and what they’re looking forward to this season in LA.

We kick off this week’s episode with news from the WNBA, including an officiating upset during the Liberty v Fever game, Nneka Ogwumike leading the Storm to a big win over the Aces, and Caitlin Clark’s quad injury… Dr. Rapinoe diagnoses how long she might be out. In soccer news, Gotham FC won the CONCACAF (that’s the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football) and Arsenal won the Champions League. Megan helps Sue make sense of all the leagues in soccer. It’s a lot! And if there’s any doubt that everyone watches women’s sports, we take a look at the latest, eyepopping valuation of the New York Liberty. We wrap it up with a new Are You a Megan or Are You a Sue? This one has to do with how you celebrate a win. Check out Sue’s deep-dive interview with the Aces’ Jewell Loyd on Bird’s Eye View .

This week we are live from New York for the Liberty’s home opener, with extra special guest Breanna Stewart! We have lots of thoughts on the opening weekend of the WNBA: who impressed us with their game and with their fits. And we’re not happy with the media’s coverage of Caitlin Clark’s hard foul on Angel Reese. We tell you why. With Stewie, she reveals the best advice Sue ever gave her, and what she thinks about the Liberty’s newest additions, Marine Johannès and Natasha Cloud. She also tells us how she really feels about Aaliyah Edwards beating her in Unrivaled. Of course, we couldn’t let her go without asking her about that 2024 foul call. Stick around for a little check-in after the live event. We share some punishing responses to last week’s Bicker of the Week about Megan’s criminal behavior with the ice cream.

This week, Sue explains her new job as the Managing Director of USA Basketball, and we get some early 2028 Olympic predictions. Then we check in with the NWSL and the WNBA, including reports of a Connecticut Sun sale and a tiny history of getting dunked on in the W in light of Dominique Malonga’s arrival in Seattle. We’re sending Angel City’s Savy King our best after her in-game collapse, and we weigh in on whether the game should have continued. We are also excited to talk about all the beauty brands entering women’s sports, especially Rihanna’s Fenty partnering with the NY Liberty. Our only question: what took beauty brands so long? Before we wrap, we have a fresh new Bicker we want to get your thoughts on. It involves ice cream – again. Also, Sue’s new podcast, Bird’s Eye View is launching this week!

Lauren tells us what drives her to invest in women’s sports, how the industry could enable women athletes’ involvement in the business, and her up-close insights into what women’s sports needs to grow.

The Final Four is officially official. Why has the tournament been so low-scoring so far? And does that mean the team with a Certified Bucket Getter (CBG) is primed to win it all? We chat through this and all the possibilities that could go down in the final stretch. And then onto our Unrivaled Championship Spectacular. We speak to series Champ and Finals MVP Chelsea Gray and the inaugural MVP and 1-on-1 champ Napheesa Collier. Chelsea talks about playing with Angel Reese, the beef that WILL spillover to the W season, and shares some of the ways she’d like to see Unrivaled evolve next year. Then, Napheesa reflects on what it means to start a successful new league, and if she’s going to continue her scorched earth streak into next year.

We’re halfway through March Madness -- time to take a close look at the teams and players in the Sweet 16. And we discuss a path forward for USC after Juju Watkins's season-ending ACL injury -- sending our heartfelt best wishes to Juju! We’re going to miss her in the tourney, but know she’ll be back. Checking in on our bracket, we share some tough lessons we’ve learned the hard way and the matchups we’re looking forward to. Plus, we drop a little behind-the-scenes look of Megan “locked-in” at game time. And we’re introducing a new segment: Make it Make Sense, where we’ll call out things that just don’t add up. Like: when fans chant “overrated" at an opposing team, are they committing a self-own? This leads Megan and Sue to recollect their all-time best heckle moments. And the verdict is in on last week’s Bicker of the Week aka the sunscreen fiasco, but Megan and Sue settle things their own way.
