Fore!

We have an extra special treat on today’s episode of The GIST of It — a conversation with a trio of Team USA’s best golfers: world No. 2 Lilia Vu, world No. 3 Nelly Korda, and the squad’s Solheim Cup captain, Stacy Lewis. Our producer Dee Lab sat down with the gals to discuss all the deets on the Solheim Cup, one of golf’s most anticipated tourneys.

They’ll chat through the state of women’s golf, what makes the Solheim Cup so unique, how they’re preparing, and what it means to tee it up for Team USA. Happy listening!

Happy Tuesday!

And, more importantly, happy Battle of the Sexes anniversary eve! Tomorrow marks 50 years since the legendary Billie Jean King took down self-described male chauvinist Bobby Riggs in the monumental event, scoring a win on the court and a massive dub for women’s equality.

So, in honor of the milestone anniversary, co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz are spending today’s episode of The GIST of It breaking down how the match came to be, how it went down, and the impact on women’s tennis, and beyond. Let’s serve it up.

Hello!

Head into the weekend with another episode of The GIST of It. On today’s pod, co-host Steph Rotz and guest host Lauren Tuiskula are back with more on the WNBA playoffs before the rest of the first-round series tip off on Friday.

Then, stick around for part two for a deep dive on two serious storms brewing in the NFL. We’re digging into the renewed turf vs. grass field debate, which received fresh oxygen after Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ season- (and potentially, career) ending injury. Then, it’s time for yet another NFL front office WTF: A former NFL Network journalist filed a lawsuit accusing two high-profile owners of making racist remarks.
