Cali Cheer Show Returns for Season 2

📰 The news: You asked, they answered! Cali Cheer Show is officially back for Season 2 - and this time, it’s (literally) twice as fun. The hit series that gave fans an unfiltered look into the powerhouse of Cali Smoed now includes the reigning World Champions, Black Ops. Fresh off their 2025 Worlds win, Black Ops is looking to win again, making this season a can’t-miss inside look into what it takes to be the best.

🌟 Why it matters: The show gives a rare, behind-the-scenes look at two of the most well-known teams in the world - and it’s free and accessible to everyone. Produced independently by people who love the sport, it stands out in a space where most cheer content is locked behind paywalls. Supporting this series helps keep it going and opens the door for more shows like it in the future!

📅 What’s next: New episodes come out every Wednesday (1 pm Pacific Time), with the premier released already. You can support the show’s future by subscribing, sharing, and engaging with every episode. The bigger the buzz, the more seasons (and maybe even spinoffs) we’ll see.

For more about the show and how you can support it, read our interview with the producer here.
