If you tuned in to watch an interview with Sue, think again... If you tuned in to watch a legend watch Channing and Richard argue, super fun

[@vuvae3]

I need to see a picture of Richard Jefferson white Nissan maxima with the TVs 😂😂😂😂

[@LA_23]

First part of the show Sue could hardly get a word in...Love the show but Richard needs to let Sue talk man I want to hear the guest talk more or what’s the point of having a guest on 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@felipestrm]

Major crush on Sue Bird, big fan of her partner also

[@jessieelmazi5666]

Fiancée* lol

[@blackkcinamacritic]

My first Basketball crush before Skyer Diggins ❤

[@thehoboman]

30 minutes and sue said two sentences...

[@LA_23]

So true man...every time Sue started talking Richard would butt in and then totally make it about himself I’m like dude I want to hear Sue let her talk !

[@thehoboman]

I wanted to hear about her shoe collection... 😞

[@ducky2710]

Dude the guys talked entirely too much! Lol It started to get annoying but coo interview. There were things that Sue hasn't touched on so thats whats up! It wasnt a repetitive interview if you're a fan of hers!

[@user-tc9sw1oh2z]

Allie was fansgirling over Sue😜😜

[@blakespadaro2313]

[@enoksan]

I love you, Allie, but please let the guys say the manscaped spill. Lmao

[@vc1954]

AHAHAAH! Ally reading the manscaped ad

[@travis675]

Legend in the building

[@wonderlandian8465]

Other than that, love Sue, cheering for Seattle to repeat next year

[@elliemyers6435]

Hahaha, this is awesome....But, to "keep it 100" as the kids say, soooooooooooooo many of Sue's IG followers are a result of Megan. Her follower count SKYROCKTED (mostly from USWNT stans) when people found out her and Megan were together. So, the answer for Richard would be to date an athlete more famous than you are to gain followers (which obviously won't happen :) )Also, Richard has only been on insta for like what? Two years? That count is pretty good considering he hasn't been on it all that long. :)

In regards to transgender people in sports- transgender women may have a higher level of testosterone than women who were born female, but transgender men can have a higher level of testosterone than men who were born male, too. If this weren't an issue of misogyny and transphobia, then this wouldn't be a one-sided issue regarding women, whether they be cisgendered women, masculine women, transgender women, or gender-noncomforming females.

[@vasantsp]

RJ speaks facts when he isn't looking for clout.

[@wonderlandian8465]

With all the respect to any persons identification the whole trans athletes discussion to me kinda neglects logic near the end of the pod , and i get it...trust me i get it. But when you allow a male (no matter what the imbalance in hormones is) to compete with female athletes it's basically opening up a way for natural born females to become uncompetitive in whatever fields those trans athletes choose to compete in, 99% of them. There might be a 1% who depending on the sport might be physically gifted in such a way were they can at least compete with trans athletes but that won't be close to the norm for 99% of the natural born female athletes. I don't see how people are just willingfuly ignoring that fact, they are thinking with their heart instead of their brains.

[@aimeeweadley231]

Let the women speak

[@JackMane9000]

The trans topic its an entirely different subject on its own

[@tjleaf3510]

I disagree with their take on Trans athletes. “Everyone deserves an opportunity to play” is a bad take. You acknowledge men have physical advantages but then trans women should allowed to play...just to be in inclusive? Seems fair. Makes sense

[@generalrese4811]

Richard please let the guess talk you’re always talking too much

[@pugshugs2870]

This trans take turned out bad lol
