There’s no time like The Big Dance for a little celebration.
Today’s episode of The GIST of It is extra special because we’re celebrating our five-year anniversary! From teaching themselves how to edit on Garage Band to creating hundreds of episodes with a full production team, co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz have seen it all — and now it’s time to shake things up.
Don’t worry — The GIST of It will still be your twice-weekly go-to source for the latest on the top sports headlines, but by focusing on just one story per episode, there’ll be even more room for listener questions, fun debates, and of course, spicy hot takes.
And with that, today’s episode highlights a hero and a villain in women’s college hoops, traveling down memory lane to explore how two gamechangers took such divergent roads to become pillars — good or bad — in women’s sports.
A special shout out to FanDuel for sponsoring today’s episode! The GIST partnered with FanDuel to create our very own March Madness brackets for both the men’s and women’s tourneys.
