Podcast: Welcome to the Party
Published On: Tue Mar 24 2026
Description: March Madness is in full chaos mode and Welcome to the Party is right in the middle of it. Julie, Abby, and Kinger break down bracket madness (including their own 1,000+ person pod challenge), wild leaderboard swings, and the moments everyone’s talking about, from buzzer beaters to emotional coaching clips that gave Abby full-body chills. Plus, the Party Starter covers a stacked week in women’s sports: NCAA hockey dynasties, Virginia’s swimming dominance, major FIFA coaching changes, and a record-breaking contract in the NWSL. Then, hoops expert Jordan Robinson joins to unpack the game-changing new WNBA CBA, why it’s bigger than just salaries, how it reshapes the future of women’s sports, and what it means for the next generation of players.   Follow @welcometothepartyshow on: YouTube — ⁠@welcometothepartyshow⁠ Instagram — ⁠@welcometothepartyshow⁠ TikTok — ⁠@welcometothepartyshow⁠ Email — partypeoplequestions@gmail.com   Keep the Party Going: WNBA/CBA Agreement: https://www.wnba.com/news/wnba-wnbpa-tentative-cba-deal-2026 Follow and Hype up our Welcome to the March Madness Party Bracket Competitors: The RE-CAP show: https://re-website.com/pages/recapshow?srsltid=AfmBOoor3S1KP5mHb26PRTMpzLWKaEnY1X2Gsbs_ZobDqQgVOdnp63Vc and social: https://www.instagram.com/re__inc/ The Women’s Game: https://www.youtube.com/@WomensGameMiB and social: https://www.instagram.com/womensgamemib/ Good Game with Sarah Spain: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-good-game-with-sarah-spai-185664375/  Time Wasting: https://justwomenssports.com/time-wasting/ and social: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DVjV3A7j3Ll/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Coach Jackie: https://www.instagram.com/jcubedhax/ and TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jcubedhax A Touch More: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-touch-more-with-sue-bird-megan-rapinoe/id1510142364 and on Social: https://www.instagram.com/atouchmore/ March Madness Schedule: https://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-women/article/2026-03-23/2026-march-madness-womens-ncaa-tournament-schedule-dates-times   Thank you to our sponsors: -Ally’s got you covered.
