In the final episode of our five-part deep dive with the incomparable Allison Fisher—aka the “Duchess of Doom”—we reflect on the later chapters of a legendary career that has shaped the world of cue sports. From navigating personal challenges and global pandemics to rediscovering her competitive edge, Allison shares how she’s balanced motherhood, health, and the evolving demands of the game while remaining a fierce and respected competitor.

We hear candid reflections on the emotional toll of loss, the comfort of family, and the lifelong pursuit of balance between personal and professional fulfillment. Allison opens up about her most recent victories, her selective return to competition, and her honest assessment of what drives her today—not trophies, but legacy and meaning.

She also gives us a behind-the-scenes look at Cue Queens, the upcoming docu-series showcasing the untold stories of women in pool. From surprising accolades—like being twice named the UK Tie Woman of the Year—to the whirlwind experience of being inducted into multiple Hall of Fames, Allison’s grace, humor, and humility shine through.

Co-hosts Mike Gonzalez and Mark Wilson round out this memorable conversation with Allison’s thoughts on how she'd like to be remembered, the one shot she’d love to take back, and the wisdom she'd share with her 20-year-old self.

A fitting close to a remarkable series with one of the sport’s true icons. Join us as we celebrate a champion whose impact reaches far beyond the table.
