She opens up about adjusting to pro ball, building chemistry with the Golden State Valkyries, and what it’s like playing in front of 18,000 fans in Ballhalla.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Big Canada Energy w/ Serah Williams
This week, Azzi brings her UConn teammate Serah Williams into the FAFO universe — and it doesn’t take long for her to feel right at home. Alongside Ashanti, the trio get into everything from Serah’s move from Wisconsin to Storrs, to her viral LSU visit, and how she ended up with the nickname “Big Canada” (which, apparently, is still up for debate). Serah talks about growing up in church, leaning on her faith, and adjusting to UConn’s intense basketball culture. She opens up about her Nigerian roots, her love of sneakers and Lululemon fits, and why she refuses to eat fruit that isn’t consistently sweet. Things take a turn when the group tackles a Midwest vs. East Coast showdown, reacts to fan questions, and hits their “What the FUDD” of the week — including Azzi’s confusion over “snotty” being a compliment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Azzi vs. Pop Culture: The Who the Fudd Challenge
Azzi and Ashanti are back with a full debrief of life on and off the court. Ashanti kicks things off with the story of meeting Stephen Curry at a Unanimous Media celebration, while Azzi admits to dusting off her skates for the first time since middle school (and surviving without a fall). From there, the two break down team shenanigans — including a viral themed dress-up night, Twitch streams, and UConn football games. With Media Day officially in the books, Azzi shares what the marathon photo-and-video gauntlet looks like behind the scenes, why this year’s hit different, and how she did her own makeup for the first time. The conversation also touches on Coach Geno’s appearance on the pod, recruiting stories (including a legendary CD games mishap), and their reactions to all the women's basketball drama — from JuJu shutting it down for the year to the Liberty’s surprise coaching shakeup. Finally, Azzi gets put to the test in Who the Fudd?!* — a chaotic guessing game that proves she might not know her Derek Jeter’s from her Halle Berry’s.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
