About this listen
This episode celebrates all things that are WOMEN IN SPORTS! From some early trailblazers, to the fiftieth anniversary of Title 9, to our remarkable teams that continue to amass victories surpassing their male counterparts and Olympic athletes that always inspire us.
Yet, maybe unsurprisingly, these athletes are still woefully underpaid, sometimes to the tune of earning as much as one hundred percent less than their male counterparts.
Hosts Buffie & Carolyn will also welcome our newest female sports team, Minnesota Aurora, a female-led & community owned pre-professional women's soccer team that will
begin to play in the new USL W League in May 2022.
