Show Notes
Before Simone and Suni came Shawn Johnson, the Olympic gold medalist who shot to fame during the Olympics 17 years ago. Yup, we feel old too. Shawn joins Blake and Caroline in the studio to talk about fans literally crawling under bathroom stalls to get her autograph, why she couldn’t go back to high school, and her biggest piece of advice to teenaged athletes on the brink of stardom.
In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:
- March Madness 101 and how to fill out your bracket
- The Cowboys player beefing with his former teammate
- Why Blake has secondhand embarrassment over the WAGs drama in San Francisco
- The return of Ted Lasso (with a much-appreciated twist)
- A 14 year-old just took the field in a NWSL game (and Shawn has some words of wisdom to share)
