Sophie Cunningham launched her own podcast Wednesday called "Show Me Something." The Indiana Fever guard wasted no time tackling controversial subjects on the show.
Cunningham, 28, is co-hosting this podcast with reality TV star West Wilson. They struck a deal with Colin Cowherd's network, The Volume. Wilson believes it's the perfect time to partner up with Cunningham. After all, the WNBA's popularity is on the rise.
In addition to covering all things basketball, Cunningham and Wilson will discuss the latter's appearance on Bravo's "Summer House."
"We're definitely going to hit on the WNBA, a huge topic in sports right now, and then Bravo, clearly, but pop culture, food, fashion, travel, let's spread this thing wide open because we really do talk about anything," Cunningham said.
During the debut episode of "Show Me Something," Cunningham shared her thoughts on the face of the WNBA. She said she gets "really pissed off" when people don't have Caitlin Clark as their answer.
"There’s really good, well-known people in the league. I’m not discrediting them. We have a lot of badasses in our league. But when people try to argue that she’s not the face of our league, or that our league would be where we’re at without her, you’re dumb as [expletive]," Cunningham said. "You're literally dumb as [expletive]."
Cunningham isn't the only athlete who believes Clark is the biggest star the WNBA has.
The Athletic recently asked 39 players who'll be the face of the league in five years from now. Over 53% of the votes went to Clark. USC star JuJu Watkins claimed roughly 18% of the votes, while Paige Bueckers
Clark is currently sidelined with a right groin strain. Whenever she returns to the court, there'll be plenty of eyes on her. Until then, the Fever will lean on her supporting cast, which includes Cunningham.
