Azzi Fudd, a star player for the University of Connecticut women’s basketball team, 2025 NCAA champions, joins the iHeart Women’s Sports podcast and will launch her own podcast titled ‘Fudd Around and Find Out.’
iHeart Women’s Sports is the first-ever audio platform dedicated exclusively to women’s sports, offering a unique perspective and insights. They have partnered with Fudd to co-produce a podcast in collaboration with Stephen Curry and Erick Peyton’s Unanimous Media, celebrating the one-year anniversary of the platform. iHeart Women’s Sports, with its unique focus, averages 89 million monthly listeners across nearly 500 broadcast radio stations.
“I think we can safely say that women’s sports is not just having a moment, but rather is on a now-undeniable trajectory that has been building for years. One year ago we launched iHeart Women’s Sports knowing that fans were eager to feel more connected to their favorite players, teams and even other fans, and we are continuing to drive that progress forward,” said Jessie Katz, Head of iHeart Women’s Sports said in a press release. “We’re excited to celebrate this incredible milestone and introduce even more shows to our roster this year.”
Fudd, with her unique perspective as a star player and a woman in sports, will host the podcast herself. She has expressed her hope to inspire listeners while providing a platform for underrepresented voices in the sports world.
‘I’m beyond excited to deepen my relationship with Stephen Curry and Unanimous Media as we launch ‘Fudd Around And Find Out’ with iHeart Women’s Sports,” Azzi Fudd said in a press release. “This podcast is a space where I can bring my full self—athlete, storyteller, budding entrepreneur and fan of the game—and highlight the voices that deserve to be heard. Whether we’re talking hoops, culture, business or life beyond the court, I want every episode to feel real and empowering. This has been a dream in the making and I truly can’t wait for the world to… ‘Fudd Around And Find Out.”
The first episode of ‘Fudd Around And Find Out’ is set to be released in early August.
