THE GROUP CHAT: #1

This week, Momentum enters a new era WOOT!In our first-ever weekly chat show format, Kat sits down with Lav Baj for an unfiltered conversation that moves beyond headlines and into the **real** stories shaping women’s sport right now. Together, Kat and Lav break down one of the biggest weeks in global women’s sport. Where to even start!?From Team USA’s dominance in the Women’s World Cup qualifiers - with Caitlin Clark’s electric return and debuts from Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers — to a potential WNBA lockout that could reshape the future of the league....there was a lot to discuss.They also unpack Angel Reese’s growing influence beyond the court (including her investment in Australian basketball), and what record-breaking salaries in The Hundred mean for women’s cricket - and why money alone isn’t fixing representation behind the scenes.Closer to home, they dive into the Matildas’ high-stakes quarter-final clash, the shifting future of netball broadcasting in Australia, and the cultural moments making headlines - from the Steelers’ “unsponsored” campaign to Emma Lawrence making history in the NRL.Plus, the bigger conversations we obviously can’t ignore - from sexism in sports media, to athletes seeking asylum, to what meaningful progress in women’s sport actually looks like in 2026. We know we say this about every ep...but it's an episode not to be missed!
