Description

This week on Walley & Flip, your favorite skating-obsessed sisters are diving blade-first into the history of the World Team Trophy — how it started, what makes it unique, what we can be excited about for this year’s showdown, and why some skaters "hate this event" (Scott, we're looking at you!)

Then, we get down and icy as we discuss Stars on Ice and what happened to the golden age of ice shows? We talk about the rise and fall, the missed opportunities, and where we go from here.

History, hot takes, and a little heartbreak — it’s all in this episode of Walley & Flip.
