UConn's Azzi Fudd partners with Steph Curry production for new podcast
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.

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Steph Curry has been the face of the Golden State Warriors for years. Even at 37 years old, he is still playing at an elite superstar level and has shown no signs of slowing down. Last season, he was able to lead the Warriors to the playoffs once again. He led an upset in the first round of the playoffs against the Houston Rockets, who were the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference. Unfortunately, he suffered a hamstring injury in the second round against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Following Curry's injury against the Timberwolves, Golden State was quickly eliminated in five games.

More Photo byAs time rolls on, the future has become a question mark for Curry. How much longer will he keep playing in the NBA? Read more: Former NBA Star Fires Shade at Spurs' Victor Wembanyama That is a question that he has started speaking out about. During a recent appearance with Complex, Curry opened up again about his NBA future. "I'm kind of just taking it in two-year chunks. I just want to be in a position where I've put myself in a position where I can say I've done everything I can," Curry said. "I'm not nowhere close to that." Fans will love to hear that news. Curry has become a fan favorite across the league. When he chooses to hang up his shoes and retire, it will be an incredibly sad day for the NBA. He also opened up about the most difficult part of the NBA grind for him these days. The offseason has become more difficult. "Mostly the offseason for me are the hardest than the like in season experience because once you get into the 82 games like it's repetition," he said. "You know what you need to do — practice, off days, you love playing and the games are the most fun... the games are so much fun. Like you get lost in the game. Like that's the easy part." Read more: Lakers' Marcus Smart Sends Bold Luka Doncic Message Throughout his 1,026-game career thus far, Curry has averaged 24.7 points per game to go along with 6.4 assists, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.5 steals. He has also shot 47.1 percent from the floor and 42.3 percent from the three-point line. Curry will play most of the 2025-26 NBA season at 37 years old. He will turn 38 on March 14 of 2026. Hopefully, he's able to stay healthy and continue his career on his terms. He sounds ready to play for at least two more years and possibly more past that.
