Burn It All Down

In this episode Lindsay, Jessica and Brenda talk about feminism and climate activism in sport, thanks to a suggestion from flamethrower Dr. Maddy Orr. They discuss the ways mega events impact the planet, how climate change disproportionally effects marginalized communities in sport and what individual athletes and teams are doing to promote more sustainable leagues and events. They also burn the things that need to be burned in sport and highlight Torchbearers forging their own way, including the eternal light that is Simone Biles. They wrap up with the things that are good in their lives and the matches they're watching this week.  This episode was produced by Tressa Versteeg.
