Ep #153: Pushing for progress: On trans rights and equal pay in sports

One Olympics whirlwind later, we’re back in your ears with another episode! Today, co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz discuss the new anti-trans attacks coming out of Texas and what that means for trans athletes like college swimmer Lia Thomas. 
Then after the break, we’ll transition to some celebratory news, as El and Steph discuss the U.S. women’s soccer team’s landmark settlement for equal pay. If there’s anything the USWNT has taught us, it’s that we can celebrate progress while continuing to fight.
