Naomi Osaka’s Return, Arch Manning’s It-Boy Status, and Glen Powell Goes Collegiate with Kristin Juszczyk

·1 hr·5 clips

Kristin Juszczyk started designing because she got sick of wearing the same three T-shirts to NFL games.

The episode opens with the hosts catching up after a two-week break, sharing personal anecdotes like Caroline's trip to the U.S. Open where she spilled a honey deuce cocktail. They dive into tennis, discussing Naomi Osaka's emotional comeback victory over Coco Gauff and Osaka's new coach. The conversation shifts to Venus Williams, detailing her severe struggle with uterine fibroids, misdiagnosis, and eventual successful treatment that allowed her return to tennis. College football is analyzed, including Bill Belichick's disappointing first game at UNC, a 48-14 loss to TCU, and Arch Manning's close 14-7 loss to Ohio State, with a clarification that he is the nephew of Peyton and Eli Manning. The hosts briefly mention Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's post-engagement appearance and a viral deleted tweet from Nebraska. NFL news includes Micah Parsons's record contract and trade to the Green Bay Packers. The main interview is with Kristin Juszczyk, founder of Offseason, who explains how her frustration with limited game-day fashion led her to start designing. She discusses the brand's launch, expansion into WNBA apparel, the impact of Taylor Swift wearing her puffer, and the creative process behind custom pieces for clients like Glen Powell. The episode concludes with a 'Send It' segment featuring viral moments: a baby getting tennis player signatures on her helmet, a young Cowboys fan consoled by Micah Parsons, Kirk Herbstreit's dog Peter 'analyzing' a game, and critiques of Caitlin Clark's new logo.
