Summary

Megan and Sue share their theory about what Taylor Swift was whispering to Caitlin Clark, review Unrivaled's first matchups of the season, and discuss what the NCAA’s decision to pay women’s March Madness teams equally means for women’s sports as a whole. On the Intersection, Sue and Megan look at what's actually behind a recent anti-trans bill, what it means for transgender girls in sports, and how you can educate yourself on the issue. And they return to last week's Bicker of the Week over Sue's gourmet meal and subsequent kitchen chaos: Megan's not backing down but she does have a new coping strategy. To wrap things up, Chef Sue shares her highly requested chocolate ice cream recipe. A Touch More: The Podcast is produced in partnership with VOX MEDIA and TOGETHXR. Learn more about your ad choices.
