On this episode of Levels to This, Sheryl Swoopes and Terrika Foster-Brasby continue their live conversation at the Lighthouse with Flagrant and Funny co-hosts Cari Champion and Jemele Hill. The four get into who actually gets the credit in women's sports media — and why the reporters who've been on the ground for years keep getting passed over when the big news breaks. Jemele calls out the double standard directly: men can openly admit they know nothing about the WNBA and still get a platform, while outspoken Black women get scrutinized for having opinions rooted in decades of institutional knowledge. The crew also breaks down their favorite and least favorite WNBA free agency moves, from Chicago's Baddie Bunch to questions about Golden State and Portland's direction. They close out with a raw audience Q&A on pivots — Cari on trusting your body when it's time to move, Jemele on the real cost of entrepreneurship and leading people into a burning building, Sheryl on staying ready when teams keep saying no, and Terrika on what it means to bet on yourself when nobody else will.

On this episode of Levels to This, Sheryl Swoopes and Terrika Foster-Brasby are joined live at the Lighthouse by Flagrant and Funny co-hosts Cari Champion and Jemele Hill. The four break down the 2025 WNBA Draft — from Azzi Fudd going first overall to the Dallas Wings, to the implications of Raven Johnson landing in Indiana alongside Caitlin Clark. The conversation shifts to the backlash against the UCLA women's basketball team after their NCAA championship run, and what it really means to interrupt a narrative when you're not who people expected to win. All four women get honest about the specific, grinding ways Black women in sports media are pushed to be something other than themselves, and what it looks like when Black women in the same space actually choose to go to bat for each other.

On this episode of Levels to This, hosts Sheryl Swoopes and Terrika Foster-Brasby are joined by Dr. Bettina Love, renowned public speaker, educator, and New York Times bestselling author of Punished for Dreaming. Dr. Love breaks down why "reform" is a word Black and brown communities should be skeptical of, and why America's racial inequities aren't a crisis — they're a continuation. Dr. Love brings real joy to the conversation, breaking down what black joy actually means: the spades table where nobody's thinking about white folks, the sundress that needs no explanation, the McDonald's money question that transcends generations.
