  • Amazing and comprehensive women’s sports podcast

    I’m sad it took me so long to find this podcast! This is exactly the women’s sports podcast I was looking for. Sarah Spain covers all women’s sports leagues and events with deep knowledge and context. I’ve been so impressed with the ways she doesn’t shy away from directly addressing racism, sexism, and homophobia while also going deep into the skills, fundamentals, and business of all the sports being covered. Such a great source of comprehensive and nuanced information about the wide world of w... more

  • Disappointed

    After being an occasional listener of this show for a while, I’m incredibly shocked at the more recent episode regarding the WNBA draft and, in particular, the discussion around two basketball stars. I was hoping for more journalistic commentary or a basketball discussion, but it gave off very gossipy. I don’t understand the inclusion of that. This may be wrong, but as a woman in sports commentary, I’d expect better from her than to regurgitate rumors like this. It takes away from the love of sp... more

  • Shameful

    It’s disappointing that you use your platform in such a harmful way. It’s upsetting that instead of congratulating an amazing draftee on the biggest night of her life, you decide to start spewing fanfiction about her and her private relationship with her partner. These women are professionals and above all else, I know they are focused on basketball and basketball alone what they do privately is their business and you should be ashamed of yourself for saying what you did about those women. They ... more

  • Trash

    You missed a great opportunity to celebrate Azzi Fudd’s special night and her achievement as the number one draft pick. Instead of focusing on that, you chose to dive into drama and rumors about a breakup, which felt unnecessary and took away from the positive moment.

No Free Hams with Megan Keller
Q: Tell me everything about Connor Storrie. Tell me everything about Saturday Night Live. I'm obsessed. What was that like?
It was a pinch-me moment; I was nervous but thrilled to be there behind the scenes, and the experience felt different from the gold medal game in the sense that you're dealing with live TV pacing and lines, which required quick adaptation and a clear read of when to deliver.
A Very Conscious Uncoupling with Andrés Martinez
Q: How did women's soccer help change the perception of the sport in the U.S.?
He describes how the success and visibility of the 99ers and the immersion of women in high-profile tournaments helped demonstrate that women's soccer could be commercially viable and culturally transformative, which in turn accelerated broader acceptance and investment in the sport.
