    My favorite basketball podcast
    Refreshing and fun, consistently funny and insightful. Like hanging with friends who know what they’re talking about. Also: boring-nerd-free zone 🚫

    gorgeous gorgeous girls (and producer Harry)
    This show has recently moved into the top “Podcast We Listen to Together” category in my relationship (including the phrase “oh, we’re listening to the Spinsters about Pat Riley’s sex life in the car on the way to the ice cream stand”) and it could not happen to a better group of people. Everyone is cute and smart and delightful and it’s just a joy to listen to. They should let me come on to discuss the fraudulence of LeagueFits vis a vis the exclusion of Jaren Jackson Jr from their year-end awards, which Grizzlies’ player’s fiancé I have a crush on, why don’t they let Candace Parker lift weights in her protein beverage commercial, and other interesting, hyper-niche basketball topics.

    Libra’s and Japanese NBA-ers
    I listen almost exclusively on Spotify, but came here specifically to request that Haley opine on Libra’s, Rui Hachimura and Yuta Watanabe (for anything other than the fact that he keeps getting yammed on). Please and thank you. Love you, mean it.

    Needs some developmental coaching
    The good: The episodes with a definitive subject matter (or a guest with a definitive subject they want to discuss) are well prepped

    HARRY PLEASE READ
    I love this podcasts and I’m a long time listener, but I have some constructive criticism. Can we please get more consistent volume? Sometimes people whisper or get away from the mic and it is so difficult to make out what they say. To deal with it I turn the volume up but then that results in it being WAY too loud if someone talks loudly. I think this becomes a bigger issue with zoom where someone may be consistently louder. Also, there is this one ad that just BLASTS every time. I enjoy the show and appreciate everyone on it, but these things can definitely hinder the listening experience quite a bit.

    Best Podcast of 2021
    I Caden’t believe my ears—the hosts of this podcast are so Cunning it makes me wanna go Ham every episode. I’m Green with envy that Jalen (they let) Harry on the podcast this week Evan tho he’s Mobley (mostly) a producer. Why pick up a book at Barnes and noble when they let you off Scottie free for listening. It will be your favorite Jay of the week whenever you Lend an ear to this podcast, otherwise your day might Suggs. August 21st for horoscope

    Yay basketball!!
    I’ve been looking for a podcast that covers both NBA and WNBA and so glad to find it exists here. My only criticism is that I need more W coverage!!! I loved the commitment to covering both leagues at the outset, but in terms of day to day drama/standings/recaps/responses, I still feel like the default is toward the NBA. I love listening to Haley and Jordan and just want to hear your thoughts on the copious narratives, drama, and game excitement week in and week out in the W and in women’s bball. For instance, I really desperately need to know how Syd Colson and Taj Cole’s horoscopes are impacting their Athletes Unlimited league gameplay. Thank you both for this thoughtful and wonderful creation.

    Made me love the NBA again
    Joe Burrow said he could score 12-15 in an NBA game. Please discuss. Also, plz more WNBA content. Never start a land war with A’ja. Go Pistons Go Aces love what you do thank you

    That’s a Grant Hill I’m willing to die on!
  • Medal_of_Conor
    Great!!
    This podcast is the opposite of Kyrie Irving, consistent and available week in, week out. Haley and Jordan are so funny and the show is so fun, this is the only podcast I listen to that covers national basketball and it’s the only one I’ve felt compelled to review. Watch their little YouTube elevator pitch, it does a better job selling the show than I ever could. Spinsters: A Basketball Podcast 4 Life.

    Love the pod
    I love this pod and the new things I learn every episode. This show is like a Corey Kispert for your ears. Rock on Haley and Jordan.

    Review
    Truly awful. Borderline unlistenable. Would Be better if this podcast didn’t exist.
  • ShaunWebb
    Sometimes amusing sometimes painful…
    Was excited about this podcast as both are excellent and nuanced writers in my opinion but that doesn’t really translate into audio. They don’t seem prepared at all and maybe that’s part of their plan but that leads to a lot of awkward pauses and a terrible listening experience. The guests and topics they bring up are very interesting which keeps me listening.
  • LabiaLiberator
    Fresh
    I love the chemistry Jordan and Haley have; they’re comfort with each other and the topics comes across the airwaves quite nicely. I’ve never left an online review of ANYTHING before, so that should tell you how much I dig this pod.

    I love listening to Haley and Jordan’s opinions on the NBA and how they add in discussions relations to the current social and political climate. I also love when we get WNBA updates as well.
  • AnnieElizabethG
    Excellent pod
    Love the two hosts. A refreshing perspective in the world of basketball coverage. Appreciate the political topics. Everything is political, you can’t cover sports well without talking about politics.
  • Da REDemption
    Top tier pod

    Great pod
    Hi, first time - long time; great podcast. Great hosts, fun spin on the saturated NBA. Give it a listen

    Best basketball podcast
    This is my absolute favorite basketball (and all around) podcast. I just got into the sport this playoff season and have been listening since then. Hayley and Jordan are so insightful, funny, and creative. They bring a fresh and much needed perspective to the sport and I am so grateful for them!!
  • jodileeNish
    Great nuanced analysis on Gender Violence
    I enjoyed episode 21 on sexual assault and domestic violence in the NBA. I’ve worked as an attorney for DV survivors and thought the analysis was nuanced and honest.I appreciate the in-depth analysis and giving the subject the time it deserves. Great job!
  • SalPal0274820
    a joy!
    a basketball podcast that still teaches me a lot, but doesn’t take itself too seriously. jordan and haley amplify important stories and i look forward to every episode.
  • Ggator75645
    Powerful
    Your episode with Jessica Luther was incredible. Great reporting on a tough, tough subject. I was very moved.
  • spin-docta
    Spin
    This is a really fun outside the box basketball podcast. They tell some unique stories (and not just about women in basketball) that you really can’t find elsewhere. Need to listen to Katie Nolan episode again too. But there are times where there narratives go a bit tone def. In one episode lamenting the pay disparity of the WNBA, one of the hosts says something to the effect of… these women NEED to play overseas to collect millions of dollars because the W only gives them 6 figure salaries and that’s such a shame. I’m mean yes… but no.

    New Listener
    Relatively new listener and really enjoy the discussions and the special episodes are varied and really interesting.
  • Berkeley rad
    Great storytelling
    I have gotten into basketball podcasts this past year and this one is a special treat. The NBA banter is fun but they also bring in stories and features that are compelling and informative. I hope they continue to grow!
  • Brods15
    Alternative basketball stories
    This podcast is for basketball junkies. The biggest stories in the NBA are always easy to be covered, Halley and Jordan go deeper in finding stories you likely haven’t heard. Awesome podcast. Highly recommend.
  • ChuteShark
    A basketball show I like
    I heard Haley stop by them Flagrant Ones. Glad I did. This is a ball podcast worth following…. So, do it already.
  • Tttrraamm
    Go to Basketball Pod♐️
    I love Jordan and Haley they are such a fresh voice in the basketball pod world. I’m always having fun when listening.
  • cafebeans
    Definitely a 5
    Love this show and the reporting. Definitely a 5-star podcast. Honestly though it brightens up my week and gives some fresh perspectives on all things basketball. Appreciate the WNBA coverage and would love to keep hearing more of that too. *(Can you do an equalization check to lower the volume on the last 30 seconds ad? It kind of blasts your ears if you’re not ready).
  • plzdontdotoonblastgraphics
    Genuinely the best Basketball Podcast out there
    This has quickly become my favorite basketball podcast. As a woman who enjoys watching the (W)NBA, it’s so great and refreshing to hear 2 women (one of which is a BIPOC!!) speaking about the sport without the douchebaggery that comes with some basketball hosts. Love love love the energy that Jordan + Hailey bring to the pod twice a week and I’m genuinely grateful that y’all have created this!

    Amazing Podcast
    Has quickly become my go to podcast for all things basketball. I love the perspectives Haley and Jordan bring along with the way each episode often has its own distinct style. A must listen
  • Marcus Robins
    THE BASKETBALL PODCAST
    Jordan and Haley have provided such a refreshing perspective in basketball discourse. We don’t hear women’s perspective often enough and the fact Spinsters is serving WNBA coverage, amazing stories, interviews, AND an episode with a psychic reading simply makes this the definitive basketball podcast. Everyone else please stop. -@LineLayup
  • syyyuuu
    Smart and measured POV
    Finally a basketball pod not by some white bros! I like the change in format week to week: longform, interview, call in q&a etc Very fun and smart thoughts on what’s happening in the NBA/WNBA . Fave episode so far was the one the dr giving a presentation about HIV to every team.
  • RealOnesKnow
    Oh Snap!
    Rachel Nichols gets destroyed!!!! Truth. All you gotta know to stay listening to these real ladies.
  • sideburnspower
    🏀 💜
    Edit: the first place I went after the Rachel Nichols news. Other pods worry about making enemies. These two…? Not here to make friends. The tone I’ve been missing in my endless stream of Basketball pods. After the lack of Haley Group Chat, I’m glad to have her back! With a friend! This pod is charming, engaging, emotionally savvy, and lovingly supportive of basketball love.
  • PJ-H
    Wonderful Podcast
    Quickly rising up the ranks of the very best basketball podcasts out there. The Spinsters are an absolute delight.
  • Joey2Hyks
    Haley and Jordan are just excellent
    A great podcast. Haley and Jordan are funny, super smart, and passionate about basketball. I’m so impressed in their ability to cover the game-by-game details of the playoffs, tell interesting stories about the history of the league, and talk in depth about the human side of the sport. Excited to watch the show grow.
  • modest mediator and Buddhist

  • Eric Arbo
    Fake racism
    Funny all the trolls have things to say why rating shows. Pathetic
  • nomskik
    Love Jordan and Haley!
    They are smart, funny, and offer such a needed perspective on professional basketball!
  • A cellular phone user
    Awful, annoying hosts
    Proof that not everyone should share their stupid opinions. This will rot your brain

    Girlbosses stay winning !
    Soooo refreshing! Stands tall among other NBA podcasts which are largely dominated by whiny, lowkey racist white boys.
