Men’s sports have dominated the media for decades, but that trend is shifting.
The U.S. Women's National Soccer Team (USWNT), widely considered the most successful international women’s team, has won four World Cup titles and five Olympic gold medals. The team's success has both increased the popularity of women’s soccer domestically and helped close the pay gap between the men and women’s national teams.
Today on The Metro, national sports columnist and commentator Christine Brennan joins the show to discuss parity in women's sports and her new book on the subject, "On Her Game: Caitlyn Clark and the Revolution in Women’s Sports”
Later, Detroit City FC player on the women’s team, Ella Karolak, joined the conversation to discuss the unique challenges women athletes still face and how it has shaped her athletic career so far.
Listen to The Metro weekdays from 10 a.m. to noon ET on 101.9 FM and streaming on-demand.
