Welcome to office hours. I'm David Meltzer with my extraordinary co-host, Ryan, Rick, and of course, Sean Dill.

We have an amazing opportunity here because we've switched the tables on a legend.

The Hall of Fame sportscaster herself, she's been doing this longer than you've been alive, Ryan, by the way, not to age her.

She's also a host here at Sirius XM, the amazing, the incomparable. That's right, Linda Cohn

on office hours. Welcome back. Listen, you promised me, David, that I would have a return

engagement and you kept your promise, which

I'm not surprised. It's great to be with you again. Thank you. Well, thank you for being here.

And it's interesting because I've been a sports fan. I've been a front office executive, an agent,

a marketer in sports.

And there's certain people that have had not only an impact on me, but on sports as a whole.

And Lee Steinberg, to me, was one of those people because he really defines sports

agency and social impact as a sports agent by utilizing his athletes for good causes and

purposes. Today, I have three daughters, and I still don't think they truly understand the shock

as a sports fan of seeing a woman sportscaster for the first time. And they look at me like,

you're insane, dad, of course. And I said, well, thank you, Linda Cohn. It's just like with

Warren Moon. People don't even look at black quarterbacks anymore. They don't talk about it. It's

just there's so many. It's the norm. And you created the norm. I would love for you to tell us what your greatest challenge was when you started,

to give a little perspective for my friends and family that have no idea what I'm talking about.

There was actually unintentional and intentional bias for women to do anything in sports.

Well, I'll tell you, thank you for putting me in that category.

But that is really for me in my career, which, you know, 32 years at ESPN and a decade before that, like just trying to make it to ESPN, working at various

places. To answer your first question, the biggest challenge is not to let the noise get to me.
