Angel Reese Excites Fans With Long-Awaited Announcement After Drama-Filled Second WNBA Season

With her second WNBA season officially behind her, Angel Reese's fans are already getting excited about what's next for the Bayou Barbie during the offseason. Although the Chicago Sky star seemingly always has an ace up her sleeve, Reese let her followers in on a secret they've been dying to know about—her podcast. In a cheeky Instagram post, the official account for Reese's podcast, "Unapologetically Angel," finally pulled back the curtain on season 2, informing fans that the show is scheduled to return in early October.

The official "Unapologetically Angel" Instagram account shared the exciting news with a fun video, confirming that season 2 will return with new episodes on October 2.

In the promo video, fans are promised an even "CRAZIER" season than the first before urging them to tune in every Thursday at 5 PM EST for big stars and hot topics.

According to a previous report from The Blast, Reese opened up about her intentions with the podcast in 2024, calling the project "another way" for her to connect with the people who support her most. The LSU alum also reflected on how her podcast would allow her to reach "new audiences" in an exciting way.

"I can't wait to share a different side with listeners and have them come on this ride with me," she said before revealing her weekly show will be the hot spot for celebs and athletes to have "authentic and unfiltered" conversations.

"I really want to have guests across all different industries on the show - sports, music, entertainment, business, creators, and more," she added. "But you know I'm definitely going to have to get my girls Meg (thee Stallion), Latto, and Cardi B on here."

And she delivered. Throughout season 1, Reese's podcast featured a slew of high-profile guests, including WNBA legend Lisa Leslie, rapper Latto, journalist Speedy Morman, singer Jacquees, and "Love Island USA" stars Serena Page and Kordell Stewart.

Earlier this week, Reese's show page teased even more exciting guests for season 2, urging her followers to send in questions for the new batch of names, including rapper and actor Common.

The news of the podcast's return ignited passionate responses from fans, who expressed their excitement for new content on Instagram.

"I'm excited," a user wrote. "Wishing you a very successful and drama-free season 2."

Several other users shared similar comments, with one specifically adding, "Yasssss, we're so backkk."

During the debut episode of Reese's podcast, which aired on September 5, 2024, the Chicago Sky star opened up about her tense on-court rivalry with Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark.

According to Reese, while the two superstars have always had intense on-court showdowns, there has never been any personal beef between them.

"I think it's really just the fans, her fans, the Iowa fans, now the Indiana fans, that are like, they ride for her," Reese said in the video above. "And I respect that, respectfully, but sometimes it's very disrespectful. I think there's a lot of racism when it comes to it, and I don't believe she stands on any of that. ... But when it comes to death threats, like I'm talking about people come down to my address, follow me home, it's come down to that."

Last January, Reese was one of many WNBA players who relocated to Miami, Florida, to take part in the inaugural season of the 3x3 basketball league, Unrivaled.

"I'm really excited. For one, I came straight from college so knowing that I don't have to go overseas and I'm able to play still in the States is something I wanted," Reese said at the time. "Being able to play with some of the 30 best women in the league, I'm really excited for that."

Reese and her team, the Rose BC, won the league's championship game in March 2025, and Reese was later awarded the first-ever Defensive Player of the Year title.

While it's unclear if Reese will return for Unrivaled's second season, the 23-year-old has hinted at spending her offseason in Florida, leading many to believe she will be part of the 48-woman roster.

According to a previous report from The Blast, the entire roster is expected to be released by mid-October.
