In this special episode of the podcast, we tell the story of Billie Jean King, the tennis legend who shaped the game into what it is today. Followed up with a catch up with Meghan Duggan, ice hockey legend and current President of the Women's Sports Foundation; the non-profit that Billie started in the 1970s to encourage girls and women to take up sports.
