In this episode, Lindsay Gibbs, Amira Rose Davis and Jessica Luther dive into recent reports published about gender inequity in the NCAA. But first, they start the show with dad jokes.
In the main segment, the team dissects an external review of gender equity issues in the NCAA and specifically the DI basketball championships. They dive into what the report says about the lack of investment, accountability and valuation of women’s sports by the NCAA as well as the report's proposed solution the inequity. For the super extended conversation on this report, become a patron.
Following this discussion, you'll hear a preview of Shireen's interview with Rick Westhead of TSN on his reporting about sexual abuse in the NHL. Then, they burn all the worst of sports this week in the Burn Pile. Next, they celebrate those changing sports for the better, including Torchbearer of the Week Josh Cavallo, who is the first openly gay male professional footballer. They wrap up the show with what's good in their lives and what they're watching in sports this week.
