Girls Are Missing School Over Period Products with Sarah Gabel Seifert

Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham are giving the WNBA exactly what every league says it wants: attention, rivalry, ratings, personality, memes, and real fan emotion. So why does the league keep looking uncomfortable with the very energy that is making people watch?
On this episode of The Riley Gaines Show, Riley breaks down Clark’s return to elite form, the Fever’s surge, the technical foul controversy, and Sophie Cunningham pushing back on the “enforcer” label. This is not about painting Caitlin Clark as a victim. It is about a bigger question for women’s sports: can the WNBA embrace stars who are intense, competitive, physical, marketable, and unapologetically themselves?
From officiating debates to viral moments the league seems hesitant to monetize, Riley argues that women’s sports do not grow by sanitizing rivalry. They grow when athletes are allowed to have edge, personality, loyalty, toughness, and a point of view.Learn more about your ad choices.

Why Preventive Health Testing Is Changing the Future of Care | The Riley Gaines Show

Over the weekend, two very different stories about womanhood and motherhood went viral: Emily Ratajkowski’s raw reflections on birth, divorce, sexuality, and single motherhood, and the continued cultural debate around Hannah Neeleman of Ballerina Farm, a mother of nine, entrepreneur, and homemaker.
In this episode of The Riley Gaines Show, Riley breaks down what these two women represent in today’s conversation about feminism, family, identity, and fulfillment. Why is one version of female “agency” often praised, while another is dismissed as regressive or performative?

Riley explores the contrast between a life centered on self-definition and one rooted in family, sacrifice, legacy, and contentment — and asks the bigger question: what are we teaching young women to value most?Learn more about your ad choices.
