For this episode, I sat down with Laura for more of a chat than an interview around the topic of how to stay in a sport you love when the sport does not value and mistreats minorities. We answered some questions from Twitter, including what battles we pick & choose to fight and how to not get discouraged. And at the end we discuss our superhero origin stories and how we started speaking out.

In this episode I talked about USA hockey chosing to hire John Vanbiesbrouck, who previously said a racial slur to Trevor Daley in 2003, the problems with this hire and its negative consequences.

For this episode I interviewed Astead Herndon, who covers politics for the Boston Globe.

In this episode I talk about a lot of things, ranging from hockey culture, the Penguins, the effects of a non-diverse media, my personal issues with racism in hockey and more.
