Lindsay Gibbs, creator of the women’s sports newsletter Power Plays, joins Sarah to discuss why she launched the newsletter, the importance of history and context in understanding the current moment in women’s sports, and why even dream jobs come with challenges. Plus, Title IX is 53, a friend of the show bids farewell to the beautiful game, and a soft hard launch that made our Pride month.
