This week on TABLE TALK, Jeff sat down with Rachel Donner from the Locked on Flyers podcast for a great and in-depth discussion about the female athletic experience, the state of women’s sports, and how we can do better promoting women’s athletics. Yes, we’ve gotten better over the years, but there are other ways professional sports teams can rise up and provide more opportunities for women athletes in the future. Topics that Rachel and Jeff dove into:
- Where has the sports world gotten it right when it comes to women's athletics, and where have they gotten it wrong?
- Considering the Philadelphia sports market is the 4th largest sports team TV market in the United States, why has it been difficult to get a WNBA team and other female professional teams to Philly?
- How can we change the narrative on what female athletics can bring to girls at a young age?
- How can we raise awareness of how awesome female athletics can be so that it doesn't drive people away from gaining an understanding of the inequity that exists?
All of this and much more this week on Table Talk!
