Episode 74: Iyana Moore, KK Bransford & Niele Ivey
Tuesday, 24 February, 2026
It’s the final women's basketball episode on this season of Wake Up the Echoes, and we’re going out with high-octane energy and a heavy dose of millennial existential dread. Host Tony Simeone finds himself in a generational gap as he attempts to explain the concept of "burning a CD" to 22-year-olds Iyana Moore and KK Bransford. While Coach Niele Ivey breaks down the championship-level culture being built by this core roster, Iyana Moore takes us into the kitchen to discuss her visceral horror at the concept of caviar (shoutout to Hannah Hidalgo's 21st birthday celebrations after yet another dominant performance) and her deep bond with her father, who taught her to cook at age six. It's been a season of evolution for the women's team, and we're celebrating that growth, grit, and the exciting postseason that awaits.
