CW: fitness, sexual violence, sexism

Today, Katie leads our episode on women in athletics, beginning with the movie "Battle of the Sexes" and rounding out the conversation with current events like the settlement reached in the Larry Nassar trial, the upcoming Beijing olympics, and the safety of Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai. This is by no means a complete look at the full scope of the athletics and fitness world, but it's a good place to start. Join us at the end for some sweet and sour wines.
