Happy Tiny Friday!

Welcome to another episode of The GIST of It. First up, co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz discuss a major announcement from the world of women’s soccer: Canada is officially getting a pro women’s soccer league!

Unfortunately, at the same time, members of Argentina’s national soccer team are quitting due to poor treatment. We think we’ve seen this film before.

Then in part two, El and Steph hit it out of the park and preview the upcoming Women’s College World Series, a highly-anticipated event amid the skyrocketing popularity of college softball.

A big thank you to our friends at Aflac for powering today’s episode! Just like The GIST tackles the gap in women’s sports coverage, Aflac closes the gap that health insurance leaves behind. Learn more at aflac.com/thegist.
