Kardashian stans were stunned by the announcement of ‘Keeping Up with Sports.’ Why? It’s because the two outcasts of the Kardashian family joined hands to start their own podcast. But don’t worry, there’s no gossip. As the title suggests, the two hosts, Caitlyn Jenner and Khloe Kardashian’s ex-husband, Lamar Odom, will talk about sports.

Even the Kardashians also gave their blessings to the upcoming podcast. In the latest episode of The Breakfast Club Full Show, Odom revealed the real reason behind them seeking the Kardashian family’s blessings. When asked about it, the 2x NBA Champion shared that he didn’t need the Kardashian blessings. But it was Caitlyn Jenner who wanted Khloe’s blessings.

“I didn’t need their blessing but I’m you know I’m pretty sure (Jenner) you know what I’m saying wanted to make sure everything was cool and everybody was all right with it,” the former Los Angeles Lakers said.

He shared that Jenner is still close to the Good American co-founder and must have talked to her about the podcast. It seems Jenner did and even got the approval. “She’s (Caitlyn) closer to Khloe at this point in time than I am right, so I don’t know.” He further added, “I’m pretty sure she dealt with that right yeah you know what I mean,” the 2011 Sixth Man of the Year said.

Unlike people’s concern, the Kardashians are fine with Odom and Jenner teaming up for the podcast. As per a report by TMZ, Jenner gave a heads-up to her stepdaughter about her possible project with Odom. And the Kardashians and Khloe were very supportive of the decision. Furthermore, the Kardashians also think that the duo are the most fitting for the podcast given their history with sports. While Odom was a renowned basketball player, Jenner is a former Olympian.
