Their first episode dropped into podcast feeds in that fateful summer of 2020. The world has changed

1:37.6

And nobody understands that better than today's guest, Commissioner of the WNBA, Kathy Engelbert.

1:51.0

It's been 50 years since Title IX was passed in 1972, which completely changed the game. Pun intended.

1:53.0
