Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham is getting back into podcasting and it appears she will do so without her friend and longtime cohost, West Wilson.
“Sophie Cunningham is BACK with world renowned basketball trainer Drew Hanlen,” read a message via X from her podcast’s account on Thursday, September 10. “New episodes dropping every Thursday, with Episode 1 dropping later today. This is No Hesitation.”
The podcast, previously called “Show Me Something,” has been rebranded as “No Hesitation,” and is Cunningham’s first podcast in more than two months.
“The podcast is back babyyyy,” Cunningham, 30, wrote via Instagram over the announcement.
While it’s unclear what prompted the change from the Summer House alum Wilson, 31, to Hanlen, 36, it comes six weeks after Wilson publicly disagreed with his cohost’s stance on trans athletes in sports. (The former Bravolebrity has not yet addressed reports that Cunningham dropped him as a cohost.)
“Transgender athletes in American sports is such a borderline non-existent issue,” he said in a video via TikTok in July.
He continued, “Right-wingers have convinced a massive portion of people in our country that these people are, like, a threat to sports in America, when mathematically it’s not the case at all. And by continuing to platform this — politicians, athletes, journalists, news outlets — you’re only isolating transgender people even more by making them seem like this giant group of people is a threat to society, a threat to sports, when that’s just not proportionately the truth in any capacity.”
Wilson posted the video less than a week after ESPN published a profile on Cunningham, where she made it clear that she does not believe trans women should be allowed to play in the WNBA.
“I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I’m like, ‘I never once said that,’” she said in the story. “I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think, with that, love is truth, being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men.”
Cunningham doubled down at a Fever practice days later, calling her stance “common sense.”
“I think I’ll always believe in that,” she said. “I think it’s really important to protect children.”
Cunningham added, “I think there is room for absolutely everyone here and I think there’s room to love everyone. I truly think when you get people in the same room and have conversations, you have a lot in common with a lot of people. I’m there to love, but I’m also there to love biological women and I think there are rights that need to be protected.”
