Fudd Around And Find Out

Azzi, Ashanti, and Jose are back together for a packed episode as Azzi enters her final week at UConn and prepares for the WNBA Draft. From packing up her life in Storrs to saying goodbye to teammates, routines, and the “cottage,” Azzi opens up about how fast everything is moving — and how little time there is to fully take it all in. They reflect on the end of the season, the emotions that come with playing your last college game, and the overwhelming support from family and friends that helped put everything in perspective. Azzi also shares what the transition to the pros really looks like — from draft night to immediately reporting to a new team just days later.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With Azzi away tearing it up in the tournament, Ashanti is joined by two special guests — Azzi’s mom Katie Fudd and basketball legend Jennifer Azzi — for a conversation that connects generations of the game. They get into the story behind Azzi’s name, how Katie’s experience as a player shaped the way she raised and coached her, and what it’s been like watching Azzi grow into her own career. The episode also dives into parenting athletes, building discipline over time, and what it really takes to develop at a high level — from early habits to staying consistent when progress isn’t immediate. Jennifer shares her perspective on the evolution of the game, her own journey from Tennessee to Stanford, and what she sees in Azzi’s game today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With Azzi locked into March and away from the pod, Ashanti is joined by Azzi’s brother Jose for a conversation that brings a deeper look into the Fudd family story. Jose opens up about his journey through foster care, finding his place within the family, and growing up around basketball alongside Azzi — from being in the gym as a kid to playing through high school and college. He reflects on what it’s been like watching Azzi’s rise, the role he’s played behind the scenes, and how their bond has evolved over time. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Azzi and Ashanti break down Azzi’s March takeover — from major brand deals and national campaigns to her jaw-dropping SELF magazine cover drop — and what it’s been like balancing everything off the court while staying locked in on the season. They react to her latest covers, talk through how she chooses partnerships, and share why showing different sides of her identity matters. The conversation also touches on the upcoming Imperfectly Perfect docuseries, what it meant to spotlight her family, and why that story feels so personal to her. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
