About the show
Welcome to The Athletic Department, a sports and culture podcast where two West Coast-based besties join forces to break down everything from the buzzer-beater moments in women’s sports to the role that queer culture plays in shaping the world today. If you’re here for a sprinkle of stats, the scandals, or the sweet nostalgia of the ‘90s, you’re in the right place. Whether you’re new to being a sports fan (like Jenna), or you’ve been following for a while (like Kennedy), congratulations - you're now an athlete!
- Created for and by passionate recreational athletes
- New episodes every week
- Featuring interviews with a variety of guests
What our listeners say
These two are so good together and so fun to listen to. Humor. Suspense. Relatability. Betrayal. Vulnerability. It really has it all.
Put me in coach! I love this pod! Kennedy and Jenna strike the perfect balance between humor, expertise, and passion for the game. Whether they're breaking down the latest WNBA plays, discussing off-the-field issues, or sharing their favorite sports memories from childhood, every episode feels like a conversation with friends who really know their stuff. They bring a fresh, perspective to the sports world, and their chemistry makes every episode a joy to listen to. This podcast is a must-listen!
