In this episode, Jessica Luther, Amira Rose Davis, Shireen Ahmed, Lindsay Gibbs, and Brenda Elsey are live at the University of Notre Dame. First they share their favorite Notre Dame trivia. Then, they discuss protecting -- or not -- the labor of athletes, starting off with the the recent Sally Yates report about sexual and racial abuse in the NWSL by former coaches Paul Riley, Christie Holly, and Rory Dames, and the lack of accountability by US soccer federation and Safe Sport, and CONCACAF. They also talk about how the myth women's sports being in peril is used as shield to defend actions of abuse and mistreatment; lack of physical and mental health protection for athletes, gendered violence, the importance of labor unions in sport. Following this discussion, they preview of Shireen's interview with endurance athlete and activist Alison Mariella Désir on her new book Running While Black. Next, they burn some of the worst in sports on the Burn Pile. Then, they celebrate those shining light, including Torchbearer of the Week, handball player Lucas Krzikalla, who became the first out gay man actively playing in a professional German sport. They wrap up the show with What's Good and What We're Watching In Sports this week. Following this discussion, they have a Q&A with the audience, which is available on Patreon.
