In this episode, Lindsay Gibbs and Jessica Luther talk about the most recent attack on trans women in sports through the new restrictions from FINA, the international water sports governing body. But first, they discuss their favorite time of year...Wimbledon!

Then, Lindsay and Jess break down FINA's latest restrictions on transgender athletes, including UPenn swimmer Lia Thomas, how recent changes in NCAA and IOC policy are paving the way for new anti-trans rules and how trans-exclusionary groups are using Title IX to fear monger support for anti-trans legislation. They also talk about how these harm children most of all.

Following this discussion, you'll hear a preview of Shireen Ahmed's interview with Canadian basketball star Leticia Amihere about winning the NCAA Title with the South Carolina Gamecocks and her dreams of the WNBA draft. Then, they burn the worst of sports this week on the Burn Pile. Next, they celebrate those shining a light in sports, like Torchbearers of the Week, Coco Gauff, Megan Rapinoe, Brianna Turner and all of the athletes speaking out against the overturning of Roe v. Wade. To donate to your local abortion fund visit the National Network of Abortion Funds.

They wrap up the show with What's Good and What We're Watching in sports this week.
