In the Season 2 opener of Adweek’s Most Powerful Women in Sports podcast, Adweek’s senior TV reporter Mollie Cahillane is joined by basketball superstar Candace Parker of the WNBA’s Chicago Sky.

Parker was the No. 1 overall WNBA draft pick in 2008 and spent 13 seasons with the L.A. Sparks before joining the Sky in 2021 and leading the franchise to its first championship in history. During the conversation, we discuss how Parker and the Sky are tackling the 2022 season, the 50th anniversary of Title IX and its continued importance, how Parker became the legend she is, and what’s next for women in sports.
