Ep. 205: Fan Activism

Brenda Elsey, Amira Rose Davis and Lindsay Gibbs start the show by revealing who they would like to boo. Then, they talk about fan activism, including the recent Manchester United protests at Old Trafford, fan-led petitions pushing the NWSL and who gets included and excluded from fandom.  Next, they share a sneak peak of this week's interview -- an in-depth discussion between Lindsay and Howard Megdal (of The Next) about what to expect from the 2021 WNBA season. Then, they set aflame the worst things in sport this week on the Burn Pile, followed by shout outs to the Torchbearers making things brighter, including Yoreli Rincon, Colombia women’s national soccer player, one of the first to speak out about the police violence launched against protestors in recent weeks. They wrap up the show with what's good in their lives and what sports they are watching this week. This episode was produced by Tressa Versteeg.
