155
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,320

156

00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 1: And it really feels like, Laura, that Arlow has actually

158
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: genuinely changed your life. Is that right?

159
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, He's definitely on a big part of it.

160
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 4: I think both of us we weren't really sure when

161
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 4: we were going to get a dog how we were

162
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 4: going to be able to do it, just with traveling

163
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 4: and playing hockey year round. But at the end of

164
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 4: the day, we're like, let's just go for it, let's

165
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 4: give it a try. It was covid. We just went

166
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 4: out of limb We're like, let's let's buy a dog.

167
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 4: And it was definitely one of the best decisions we've made.

168
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 4: And you're right, we're pretty obsessed, that's for sure.

169
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: He is extremely cute. And I don't know if it

170
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: was your doing, Laura, but I read or listened to

171
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: somewhere that Marie Philippe was like no dog with any

172
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: like fur that might shed I don't want a big one.

173
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: I actually don't know if I want a dog at all.

174
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: So safe to say you were completely wrong in every way, Marie, Fleep.

175
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly, You've done your research. I love it.

176
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't grow up with a dog, and honestly him,

177
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 5: I did like them, but I was not obsessed. And honestly,

178
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 5: I would always probably judge people that they would be

179
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 5: sad when they're leaving the house or they're kissing them

180
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 5: or living making them sleep in their bed. I was

181
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 5: probably a first one to judge down. But I gotta say,

182
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 5: now my whole world kind of turn around for this

183
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 5: little arlold boy, and I'm obsessed with him.

184
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 3: So I'm pretty excited about him.

185
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like that's all I need to tell people,

186
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: is like, you just don't understand. Just get a dog,

187
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: and soon you'll be one of us and you'll be

188
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: a total.

189
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 3: Free I agree. Until you have one, you don't.

190
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 4: Know what they do for you and the love they

191
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 4: give you and even coming home after a loss or

192
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 4: a bad day, or honestly he has no idea and

193
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 4: does not care. He still loves us no matter what.

194
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 4: So it's been a pretty great feeling through everything.

195
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: It's truly therapy, and not in a hyperbolic sense. It

196
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: literally like one of my dogs sleeps directly on top

197
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: of me like a weighted blanket, and I'm like, yeah,

198
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: this is this is therapy. Actually, Marie Philip, not only

199
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: did it cause you to like love dogs in a

200
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: way you didn't understand, but you actually said in an

201
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 1: interview a few months after your wedding that Arlow has

202
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: you convinced that kids are in the future and that

203
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: that's your next big project as a couple. So I

204
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: love that the dog was like the little tester for that.

205
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: That's tough to navigate when you've got two professional athletes.

206
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: So what are those conversations like for the two of

207
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: you as you're both still competing at the highest level,

208
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: trying to figure out timing and things like that.

209
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, obviously, I think we're both still trying to figure out.

210
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 5: I think we're both in the a little bit getting older,

211
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 5: and we're all aware of what can be in the future.

212
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 5: And for sure, for us, having your family having kids

213
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 5: is in our project and that's what we want, but

214
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 5: we still love to figure out we still want to

215
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 5: be part of that.

216
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 3: Let Victoire.

217
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 5: We still want to be at the Olympics in twenty

218
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 5: twenty six and we're working hard for that. But I

219
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 5: think after that it'll be awesome to make this happen.

220
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 5: But we know it takes a lot of work and

221
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 5: we'll go one day at a time.

222
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: Speaking of your Montreal Victoire finished the regular season at

223
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: the top of the standings in the PWHL, but exited

224
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: in the playoff. Second season in a row for that

225
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: sort of disappointing finish. What needs to change for the

226
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: team this upcoming season, Laura, Honestly, that's a great question.

227
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 3: I don't know if we have the answer to that yet.

228
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 4: I think obviously we've been taking a little bit of

229
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 4: time after the season to take.

230
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 3: It in and of deal with that disappointment.

231
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 4: You're right, two seasons in a row, when you think

232
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 4: you're close, when you think you're getting there and it

233
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 4: gets taken from you pretty early or you don't quite

234
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 4: have it.

235
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 3: It is disappointing.

236
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 4: We feel it, our fans obviously feel it, and so

237
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 4: I think just moving forward, it is finding those different

238
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 4: ways to win, and obviously we were able to do

239
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 4: pretty well throughout the season, but at.

240
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: The end of the day.

241
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 4: What matters is the playoffs and winning a championship, and

242
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 4: we weren't able to do that for our team and

243
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 4: for our city.

244
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 3: So obviously it starts with us.

245
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 4: We need to find a way to make a difference

246
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 4: in the playoffs and to have a bigger impact. And

247
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 4: then again, I think it's just little things and working together,

248
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 4: becoming more close with our team. And obviously there's a

249
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 4: lot of big changes here coming up in the PWHL,

250
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 4: so that's going to be a big thing, is how

251
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 4: can all these teams adapt to those changes quicker and

252
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 4: also just get to know their new teammates, get to

253
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 4: know the new feeling because the teams are changing so drastically.

254
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 4: So I think to get to the championship, that's what

255
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 4: it is. It's being able to adapt, being able to change.

256
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 4: Different things are happening in our environment and our league

257
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,439
Speaker 4: it on a regular basis, and so I think it's

258
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 4: important for us as veteran players on the team to

259
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 4: find a way to help every single person adapt and

260
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 4: be a part of this new team that we're going

261
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 4: to see next year.

262
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to talk about expansion, but first I

263
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: want to ask you, Marie, Philip you've won it every

264
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: single level. No secret that you're widely considered the best

265
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: player in the world. It's been two seasons only, so

266
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: very early in this PWHL. But how much pressure do

267
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 1: you feel when it comes to p WHL titles versus

268
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 1: the pressure you feel for Canadian national team events like

269
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 1: the Olympics or World Championships.

270
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 5: Well, honestly, we like, I'm pretty fortunate to be part

271
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 5: of such amazing teams and having teammates in the environment

272
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 5: that allowed us to win. But honestly, being part of

273
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 5: the PWHL, being part of La Victoire, it is part

274
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 5: of right away. You jump into that team, you want

275
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 5: to win, and I don't think it's extra pressure. I

276
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 5: think it's part of me as an athlete to be

277
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 5: competitive and wanting to win day in and day out,

278
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 5: and honestly, starting this league, every team wants to win.

279
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 5: Every team wants to raise that Walter Cup that first time.

280
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 5: See the Sea Minnesota doing twice in a row, just

281
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 5: like the Panthers.

282
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 1: The Sneaky Frost exactly.

283
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 3: I think for all of us, we want to win.

284
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 5: I want to bring him back to Montreal and it's

285
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 5: gonna be saying yes, there's pressure, but I think thinking

286
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 5: of pressure in a positive way and just moving forward

287
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 5: towards that day in and they out.

288
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: We haven't yet seen the logos, the names everything for

289
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: Seattle and Vancouver, so at least for now, Montreal hands down,

290
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: best logo, hands down best jersey. I don't want to say,

291
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: you know, I can't say it for next season because

292
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: we still got to see what's happening with the new teams.

293
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: But that's the jersey that I want. It's so sick.

294
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: Let's talk about expansion. So the expansion draft wrapped up

295
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 1: last week. The two of you are staying put with

296
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: the Victoire, but the league saw a lot of big moves,

297
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: including Hillary Night signing with Seattle after Boston left her unprotected,

298
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: Montreal losing Kayleb Barnes, Jennifer Gardner, among others. What was

299
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: your reaction when you heard that teams could protect initially

300
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: just three players, Laura.

301
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 4: Those are tough questions here, obviously, as as players of

302
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 4: the Victire, it's sad. It's sad to see our only

303
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 4: three people be protected. Obviously, we didn't know what was

304
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 4: going to happen, myself included. I didn't know if I

305
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 4: was going to be protected. So I think just just

306
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 4: obviously that first unknown and that first scary feeling of wow,

307
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 4: only three that's quite a small amount, and especially in

308
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 4: this team that we've created that we thought was going

309
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 4: to do so well, and obviously even with the result

310
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 4: of this of the playoffs, I think we still had

311
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 4: an incredible team. We had great people, great culture, and

312
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 4: so I think our first reaction as WHOA, this is

313
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 4: a big change. A lot is going to be different here.

314
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 4: This team that we have is not going to look

315
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 4: the same at all. So I think that was our

316
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 4: initial reaction. And then we've obviously tried to take with

317
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 4: some perspective here in the sense of like, it is.

318
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 3: Amazing for women talking.

319
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 4: It is amazing that two new teams are being able

320
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 4: to be at to this league in such short time

321
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 4: because of how well the PWHL and how well all

322
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 4: six teams have done. So I think that perspective gives

323
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 4: you like, Okay, this this is for something so much bigger.

324
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 4: And we started this league with that same sense of

325
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 4: we want this to be a legacy, we want this

326
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 4: to be long lasting and forever, and so it is

327
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 4: important to look at it in all the disappointment in

328
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 4: the fact that we lost some of our friends and

329
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 4: our favorite players, Like it is important to zoom out

330
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 4: a little too and see how how awesome it is.

331
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 4: But yeah, I think obviously three players is it is

332
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 4: not a lot, And to see how Vancouver and Seattle

333
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 4: are shaping up, it seems like they are quite the

334
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 4: great teams. But with that being said, I think all

335
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 4: six teams have built something pretty special in each market

336
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 4: for the last two years and I don't think that

337
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 4: disappears with just this new process. That's still those those cultures,

338
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 4: those that what's started in all six of those cities

339
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 4: is still there, and I think all us six original

340
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 4: teams are are going to rely on those fan bases

341
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 4: and in order to kind of keep pushing forward here.

342
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 3: So there's a lot to it. There's a lot of thoughts.

343
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 4: Obviously it's pretty fresh to all of us, but I

344
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 4: think it is important that there is a lot of

345
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 4: positives to it as well.

346
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: I actually had Hillary Knight on the show about a

347
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: week before protected players were announced, and I was joking

348
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: about like, oh, what if Boston didn't protect you? Ha

349
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: ha ha, And she said one of her biggest goals

350
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: before retiring was to bring a cup to Boston and

351
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: then boom, she's gone, which is crazy. I didn't actually

352
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: think that would happen. But it also speaks to the

353
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: kind of talent that these rosters are going to have

354
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: from day one, the talent that they got between the

355
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: signing window and the draft and the noun free agency.

356
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: Just how big of a threat do you think they're

357
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: going to be in their first seasons? Murrayfully, because expansion

358
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: teams usually you can be like, it's gonna take a

359
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 1: little while, but they look pretty good.

360
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 5: They look very good. I gotta tell you, they're going

361
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 5: to be a threat from day one. Honestly, they props

362
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 5: to the GM that the in drafting those amazing players,

363
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 5: and yeah, honestly, like hearing Nighter not getting protected, Honestly,

364
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,479
Speaker 5: I was very surprised and shot for us. For me,

365
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 5: it's the face of women's hockey and especially around the world, and.

366
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 3: It's hard to see.

367
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,640
Speaker 5: Honestly, she's created that league since day one, so it'll

368
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 5: be interesting to see, but honestly very happy to see

369
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 5: her in Seattle creating something.

370
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 3: Very special there.

371
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 5: But to see these two teams lining up with these

372
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 5: with the free agency, with the draft, it's amazing.

373
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 3: Good for them, but we.

374
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: Got our work, toy. You do worried, I would be

375
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: worried about an angry Hillary Night with something. She's been

376
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: bad enough already. Happy go lucky Hillary Night is scary enough.

377
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 4: I do think Seattle is quite lucky to have her

378
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 4: to grow that program with a face like that and

379
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 4: a player like that. I mean, to start a brand

380
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 4: new program in a new city like Seattle, I think

381
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 4: having Nighter there couldn't be more beneficial to them, and honestly,

382
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 4: probably to the league. I know Boston is really going

383
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 4: to miss her, but it's it's good for her. That's

384
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 4: like in that sense too, Laura.

385
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: It's a dream that you two ended up on the

386
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: same team. But as this league was coming together, you

387
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: did not want to be considered a package deal. In fact,

388
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: you've said you had conversations with all the gms in

389
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: the PWHL and said, I only want to be drafted

390
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: if you want me as a person and as a player,

391
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: not as Marie Philipp's plus one or some package deal.

392
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: So can you tell me about that time, because you

393
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: said it was quite hard on you.

394
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think obviously I want to be my own

395
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,880
Speaker 4: person as well. My own player, and that's that's important

396
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 4: to the two of us, is we're not just doing

397
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 4: this to be a couple and to live in our

398
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 4: own house. We're doing it to chase our own passions

399
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 4: and our own dreams, obviously in support of one another

400
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 4: as well. And so from day one when this league started,

401
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,239
Speaker 4: I had no idea what to expect, and it was

402
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 4: a nervous feeling coming to Montreal, a new city where

403
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 4: obviously not a Quebec Quebec Qua player, and they didn't

404
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 4: really know who I was or where what I was doing.

405
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 4: So I just I didn't want to have that feeling

406
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 4: of I'm only in Montreal for that reason. And obviously

407
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,439
Speaker 4: Danielle silvia Jo made that really clear to me and

408
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 4: important to me that that they wanted me as as

409
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 4: not only a hockey player, but as a person as well.

410
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 4: And so yeah, I think obviously that's that's been a

411
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 4: big part of my focus even here throughout the Protection draft,

412
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 4: that that was important to me as well.

413
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 3: And I think we're always going to be like that.

414
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 4: We of course we want to play together, we want

415
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 4: to live in the same city, we want to spend

416
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 4: time in our house with Arlow that's that's the dream.

417
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 4: But on the same side of that, we are both

418
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:45,160
Speaker 4: passionate about our dreams and and our aspirations and living

419
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 4: out those and chasing our own goals and dreams. Obviously,

420
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 4: if we can do it and support of one another

421
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 4: in side by side, that is the dream and that

422
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 4: that is the goal. But with that being said, it

423
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 4: is important for both of us to be our own,

424
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 4: our own people.

425
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,160
Speaker 1: Marie Fileapel, you say quebec qua, Well.

426
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 3: You can't be.

427
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, so that sounded a little bit more natural

428
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: for you. Laura, how is your French when you join

429
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 1: the team.

430
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 3: It's not amazing. I'm still working on it.

431
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 4: I've taken some classes. I have an awesome French tutor teacher.

432
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 4: It's like one on one. We work together a little bit,

433
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 4: so she's definitely helped me out recently. I would still

434
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 4: not great. I still don't have that nice crisp accent,

435
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 4: but I can definitely understand it a lot more when

436
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 4: people speak to me.

437
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that your tutor isn't your wife. That's smart.

438
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: That's this Honestly, you need a little time away. I

439
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: actually want to get back to what's been called the

440
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: Royal wedding because you two have been together on and

441
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: off since twenty seventeen. I actually read about that scary break.

442
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: I hadn't heard about the break until I started diving deep.

443
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 1: I love that it required one of you to like

444
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 1: literally stalk the other's team bus and be like, get

445
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: out here, we need to talk, not letting you go.

446
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 1: But you only more recently, despite having Benji together for

447
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: a number of years, really started sharing more of your

448
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: life and your love publicly and being more open about it.

449
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 1: And before we get to talking about it now, I'm

450
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 1: sort of obsessed with the story of the moment you

451
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: both realized that there might be a little spark there.

452
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,679
Speaker 1: So Laura, can you can you share that? Because I

453
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: love that story.

454
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, it was quite early on. It was right

455
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,439
Speaker 4: after centralization. It was at my first time on the

456
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 4: senior after my first World Championships on the senior team,

457
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 4: we had this golf tournament.

458
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 3: It was called good as Gold. It was used to it.

459
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 3: It used to just be there.

460
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 4: It used to just be a really fun weekend with

461
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 4: all of our teammates and sponsors, and it was amazing,

462
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 4: the best weekend ever.

463
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 3: Anyways, we were there and.

464
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 4: We like we were just having drinks with everybody having fun,

465
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 4: and a bunch of us ended up going skinny dipping.

466
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 4: Just it was like one two in the morning, no idea.

467
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 4: There was a big group of us and the shares an.

468
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 2: Ocean, a pond, a lake, a pool in Blue mountain,

469
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 2: Blue Mountain, Okay, And a shooting star came flying across

470
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 2: the sky and there's tons of people in the pool

471
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 2: and for some reason, like only the two of us

472
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 2: looked up and saw this shooting star in the sky

473
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 2: and we kind of made eye contact.

474
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,959
Speaker 4: After and we're like, WHOA, this is a weird feeling,

475
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 4: a weird spark, And honestly, it wasn't anything. It was

476
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 4: literally just like this feeling, this moment, and it passed

477
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 4: and we kind of never did never thought about it

478
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,959
Speaker 4: again until later on, obviously when we started getting closer

479
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 4: and talking more often. But it always kind of came

480
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 4: back to that moment of like, WHOA, I felt something.

481
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 3: Then did you?

482
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 4: Oh?

483
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 3: I love that?

484
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 1: And then in the wedding vows you said she was

485
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: the wish I always dreamed of and I didn't realize

486
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: until now that's so cute love. I love cute romantic stories,

487
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 1: and I think that's such a sweet one. It's also

488
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: very sapfic that you're like, well, we were just in

489
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: a pool with a bunch of naked chicks and we

490
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 1: caught eyes. We were the two that stood out. It's

491
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: like a little too on the nose, guysfullief. You told

492
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 1: CBC Sports in November that this is probably the most

493
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: myself I've ever been. I've always been the hockey player,

494
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: but I have a wife and I can be myself.

495
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: People are coming to the rink and saying thank you

496
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: for allowing me to be myself. So what inspired you

497
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 1: to be more open with fans and family and community.

498
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 5: I mean, like it did take a while to like

499
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 5: kind of be okay and be open to this whole

500
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 5: new world. But I knew my environment, knew about us,

501
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 5: and it was okay. But I think for us and

502
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 5: what I saw lately with this league, to have the

503
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 5: people that come through a game, and it's from all

504
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 5: different aspects.

505
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 3: It's from the sport.

506
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 5: World to the art world to the music world, and

507
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 5: it's everybody can be themselves. And seeing signs in the rink,

508
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 5: people on the street where you from afar, You're like,

509
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 5: there's no way they know about hockey, and they stop

510
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 5: you and say, oh my god, I came to my

511
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 5: first hockey game and I love it can be yourselves

512
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 5: and those are all little moments in the last couple

513
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 5: of years. I'm like, Wow, it's beyond hockey. It's beyond

514
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 5: the plays on the ice. It allows people to be

515
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 5: themselves enjoying something else that maybe they never knew about.

516
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 5: And it's women's hockey now. And you hear people saying

517
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 5: I had the best winterever. Have a season ticket, I

518
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 5: come to every game. Like those all little moments interaction

519
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 5: that you have with people that are like, really, open

520
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 5: your eyes two bigger take that hockey and to me, like,

521
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 5: I still am the hockey player, but now maybe I

522
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 5: realize a little bit more that I can have more

523
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 5: of a little bit more of an impact on the

524
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 5: social aspect, on the people aspect. So that it did

525
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 5: open my eyes for sure, and I think they did

526
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 5: open your eyes as well to be okay with what

527
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,479
Speaker 5: we do. And honestly, we're not the most social media people.

528
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 5: I think we're just trying to be ourselves and if

529
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 5: people can connect with us, that's that's amazing. And I

530
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,360
Speaker 5: think it's been amazing to see.

531
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 1: And yet some of the wedding clips did end up

532
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: going viral on social media, particularly the Celine Dion moment,

533
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: which which is so great. Laura, you two have changed

534
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 1: out of these gorgeous dresses, you guys both look so

535
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 1: beautiful into these white, awesome suits, and you're dancing to

536
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: Celine Dion and all these players are around you and

537
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: everyone's so ecstatic. It's such a cool moment. I have

538
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 1: to ask if you're aware that rose Leavelle of the

539
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 1: US women's national soccer team also has a viral social

540
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,360
Speaker 1: media moment belting out Celine Dion. Have you seen this?

541
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,120
Speaker 4: We saw it after actually and we're like, wow, this

542
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 4: is this is amazing.

543
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 1: Apparently this is the women's sports anthem. Or I guess

544
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: Celine Dion brings us all together somehow. Speaking of people,

545
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: you wouldn't necessarily assume no a ton about sports, you know,

546
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: Marie fleep. I just hosted this event in Canada espnW Summitt, Canada,

547
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: and there was a presentation about growing interest in women's sports,

548
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: and there was a bunch of quotes from folks that

549
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: they'd spoken to for the study, and one of them said,

550
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 1: I came out of protest, and I've stuck around out

551
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,119
Speaker 1: of admiration, which is wild to me because there is

552
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: this element of crossover in women's sport where it's not

553
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: just about rooting for players or a sport, but about

554
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: what it stands for. And it does feel like you

555
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: take on this burden of not only being the best

556
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 1: at what you do, but also representing so much more

557
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: than that. Whether it's by choice or not, it's sort

558
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 1: of hoisted upon you. And I've talked to Hillary Night

559
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: about this for literal decades, like you have to sell

560
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: your sport, sell tickets, be a market or be a

561
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: role model, get your workouts in all the other stuff.

562
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 1: Was that something you had to psych yourself up to

563
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,439
Speaker 1: do because you seem a little bit shyer. Did you

564
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 1: have to decide to take on the burden of being

565
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: the face of Canada hockey and hockey in general because

566
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 1: you knew that there was more to be earned and

567
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: won by doing that.

568
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 5: I think I was lucky enough to follow into the footsteps, honestly,

569
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 5: from the pioneers and from these amazing womens that came

570
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 5: before us. Honestly, my dream started in two thousand and

571
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 5: two when I watched the Olympics on TV and Lily,

572
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 5: that's when that spark came. And honestly, I was like

573
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 5: enough to get invited to camps and make it at

574
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 5: a young age, and where you get to be in

575
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 5: the dressing room with these amazing pioneers, where you know,

576
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 5: and as you get older, and as you get with

577
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 5: these ladies on the World Championship at the Olympics, you

578
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 5: get to hear more of their story. You get to

579
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 5: see what they went through and how hard it has

580
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 5: been or how hard it is right now to push

581
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 5: women's hockey. And I think a all my career I

582
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 5: learned so much by it's just up like by just

583
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,719
Speaker 5: looking and watching and hearing. And as I got to

584
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 5: find my voice on the team as I got older,

585
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 5: as you're a little bit less shy to ask questions,

586
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 5: you allow yourself to, yes, become one of the leader,

587
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 5: but not by yourself. Honestly, I was lucky enough to

588
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 5: be surrounded by such amazing group and girls that that

589
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 5: came on the team. And yes, I'm lucky enough to

590
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 5: maybe be one of the role models. But honestly, like

591
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 5: every day I look to my left and right to

592
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 5: see how lucky I am to be surrounded by such

593
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 5: amazing leaders and to see from my role in the

594
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,360
Speaker 5: national team today seeing the league has been created, It's

595
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 5: been amazing and honestly, wasn't a decision.

596
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 3: I love it.

597
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 5: I love doing and honestly, I think I'm somebody that

598
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 5: leads by action and by leading the way in that sense,

599
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 5: and honestly, there's not a way that I take a

600
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 5: day off. I love pushing myself to be the best,

601
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 5: but honestly, I'm not there by myself, and I'm pretty

602
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 5: lucky to be doing that.

603
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it is Pride Month, and we're so

604
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: happy that so many athletes, especially in women's sports, are

605
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,479
Speaker 1: able to come out and be their authentic selves. But

606
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: there's lots of folks that are still nervous about taking

607
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: that step. And I wonder, Laura, if you have any

608
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: advice to share with young athletes trying to figure that out.

609
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:48,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, honestly, I think I mean our path, it wasn't like, Okay,

610
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 4: let's do this specific way or do this. We honestly

611
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 4: were just stay true to who we are. We didn't

612
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 4: necessarily want to go and post everything and have all

613
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 4: these pictures and when we did post. Obviously, sometimes it

614
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 4: went a little further than we thought and we didn't

615
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 4: know how to react or who to talk to or

616
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 4: but it was important to kind of lean on the

617
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 4: people around us who supported us, who cared about us,

618
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 4: whether it's our families, our parents, our siblings, our our

619
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 4: hockey community, our friends. So I would my first advice

620
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 4: would one percent be lean on the people who love

621
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 4: you and support you. There's so many people who want

622
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 4: what's best for you, who care about you as a

623
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 4: person and just want you to be happy, and so

624
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 4: lean on those people. They're they're always going to be

625
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 4: there through the ups, the downs, the ugly and the

626
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 4: amazing moments. So the people who are there for you

627
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 4: and the tougher ones, those are the ones who you

628
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 4: want to keep around. So that would be my number one.

629
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 4: And number two is honestly, just be yourself. I think

630
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 4: at the end of the day, when you're genuine when

631
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 4: you find the right person, when you are genuinely happierself,

632
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 4: things around you seem to fall all fall into place

633
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 4: a little bit easier. And those would be my two things.

634
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 4: Is it's easy to get caught up in social media

635
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 4: and what's around you and feeling like you have to

636
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 4: do certain things or fall into the norms. But at

637
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 4: the end of the day, like as hockey players, we're

638
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 4: going to be better when we're ourselves as human beings first.

639
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 4: So I think both of us our careers have been

640
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 4: better because we're happy in our own selves and we're

641
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 4: happy together, and our relationships and our life and all

642
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,479
Speaker 4: of that is genuinely true to ourself and who we

643
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 4: want to be as people first.

644
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 3: So those would be my two for sure.

645
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: It also feels like there's more folks who came before

646
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 1: you now to talk to about the decision to come

647
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: out and when and how, especially like soccer and basketball,

648
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,479
Speaker 1: there's been more I think women who are openly gay

649
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: in those sports, and more recent years that athletes in

650
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: hockey really felt like they could come out. Have you

651
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: guys talked to any of them or did you reach

652
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: out to anyone in advance and be like, how did

653
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: you navigate this, especially with sponsors or other folks that

654
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: you're more worried about than maybe friends and family.

655
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 3: Honestly, we're right, we are really really lucky.

656
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 4: I think when when we started, honestly, we didn't really

657
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,959
Speaker 4: have those conversations we kind of slid a random Instagram

658
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 4: post in and everybody was like, oh my god, it's

659
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 4: so hard.

660
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 3: Launch We tried to.

661
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 4: Have as little of conversations as possible and just pretend

662
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 4: it was.

663
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 3: But we're lucky.

664
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 4: I think we know so many people who are a

665
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 4: little bit older than us, a generation or two who don't,

666
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 4: who haven't and still don't have it as easy and

667
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 4: don't feel as comfortable because that's how they grew up

668
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 4: or that's all they knew, or it wasn't as normal

669
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 4: back then, so there's still a little bit more standoffish today.

670
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 4: So we are extremely lucky and fortunate obviously to be

671
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 4: able to be at the right timing in the world

672
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 4: that not only could we play in this new professional

673
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 4: hockey league, but we could also play together and be together.

674
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 4: So we're pretty fortunate.

675
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 3: Obviously. We've leaned on a lot of our friends.

676
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 4: A lot of our friends are in relationships with girls

677
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 4: as well, and I think of one hundred percent, our

678
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 4: environment around it around us made it a lot easier

679
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 4: to have those conversations, to feel like it was normal.

680
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 5: There's always going to be people that have comments and

681
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 5: people that have different opinions and that's life and that

682
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 5: thing we're aware of. That I think to us is

683
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 5: just focusing on what's good our environment and that people

684
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 5: wants the best for us.

685
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: All right, last two most important questions. Was Marcus invited

686
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: to the wedding?

687
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 3: No, he was not. Haven't met Marcus?

688
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 4: Yes?

689
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: Has anybody heard from Marcus? I think we need to

690
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: have Marcus on the show. I want to ask him

691
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 1: some important questions about just life and his ability to

692
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: see things and learn things and know things.

693
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 4: That was like one of our first moments of like, Okay,

694
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 4: I guess we are a little bit more out there

695
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 4: than we thought. You had no idea about this whole situation,

696
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 4: and it blew up right in front of us. So

697
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 4: it made it a lot easier to transition, like we're together.

698
00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 4: Everybody knows it now, you know.

699
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: It would be cool is if Marcus and Stacy got together.

700
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have heard about their

701
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: lesbian Stacy, but I feel like I don't know if

702
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: they're straight. I don't want to assume anything in twenty

703
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,719
Speaker 1: twenty five, especially during Pride Month, but what if Marcus

704
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: and Stacy could get together? Wouldn't that be a sweet

705
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: moment they're lesbian stacy is a similar to a their

706
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: gay Marcus moment. Okay, final most important question. How many

707
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: American players were invited to your wedding?

708
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 3: Two?

709
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 2: Yeah?

710
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 5: Two?

711
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 3: Or three? Julie two?

712
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, just Victoire teammates or.

713
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: No?

714
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 3: No, like, like Julie Chu was invited Julian as Meghan

715
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 3: dug In.

716
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 1: But isn't Julie Chou married to a Canadian player, So

717
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: that's kind of I feel like, I feel like that's sneaky.

718
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 1: That doesn't count.

719
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 4: We had a few Americans invited, not as petty as Canadians.

720
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 2: But.

721
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 1: All right, well allow it if you renew your vows.

722
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 1: We expect more Americans who are not married to Canadians

723
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 1: to be welcomed in because I feel like one thing

724
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: that the PWHL has done, beyond all the other amazing things,

725
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 1: is perhaps defrost a little bit of the rivalry, at

726
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 1: least when you're not on the ice against each other,

727
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 1: because it's a little harder to hate each other quite

728
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: so much when you play together and in pursuit of

729
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: the Walter Cup together. Right, I mean that I have

730
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: met way more Canadian hockey players of late, and I'm

731
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 1: like gosh, Dan, it's harder to hate them. I feel

732
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 1: sad for them about twenty eighteen. Not that sad because

733
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: it was one of my favorite games ever, but a

734
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:46,839
Speaker 1: little sad.

735
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 3: I hope you film even more so after this interview

736
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,240
Speaker 3: I do, which.

737
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: Makes it hard. Also, I want to be a Canadian

738
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: at this point because of you know, everything that's going

739
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 1: on in Canada's basement right now. I used to call

740
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: y'all America's hat, but now I call us Canada's basement.

741
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: And at the espnW Summit Canada, I did put out

742
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,399
Speaker 1: a petition to ask if anyone would have me if

743
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: things really go badly and I need to relocate, And

744
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: so far Diana Matheson and her wife Anastasia have offered

745
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 1: me that I could be their roommate, and also Tessa

746
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 1: Bonham said I can sleep on her couch for a while.

747
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 1: So I've got a couple offers. But your place looks

748
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 1: nice too, so I'll add you. I'll add you to

749
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: the list. Thank you so much for the time. We're

750
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: such big fans at the show and it's so great

751
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 1: to talk to you.

752
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 3: Thank you, thanks for having us. We'll get you a

753
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 3: Victire jersey.

754
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: Thanks again to Laura and Pooh for joining us. We

755
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: have to take another break. When we come back, check

756
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: your sources people, welcome back slices. It's time for another

757
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: What the fact? Last Saturday, Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark

758
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 1: made her highly anticipated return to the court and helped

759
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,799
Speaker 1: her squad to a one O two eighty eight win

760
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 1: over the New York Liberty, a win that helped the

761
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,400
Speaker 1: Fever secure its spot and the Commissioner's Cup Championship game. Now,

762
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: we're accustomed to Fever games drawing a ton of eyeballs,

763
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: and Saturday's contest was no different. With two point two

764
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: million average viewers, it was ESPN's third most watched WNBA

765
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 1: game on ABC ever. But after the game, something caught

766
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,319
Speaker 1: our It was a post from at the Indiana Fever

767
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: on Twitter slash x that read quote, the Indiana Fever

768
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: versus New York Liberty game was the most watched game

769
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: in WNBA history, with twenty point nine million viewers via

770
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: at WNBA on ESPN. Okay, four important things to note.

771
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: One that's not true obviously, as I just told you,

772
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: the number was two point two million. Two at the

773
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: Indiana Fever is a parody account, and it says so

774
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 1: in the bio. Three at WNBA on ESPN is not

775
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: a real account, and four the infograph reads viewvers viewvers.

776
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,240
Speaker 1: Despite that, over twenty three thousand people like the post

777
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 1: and over two thousand shared it. What the fact, y'all? Now,

778
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,879
Speaker 1: more than ever, it's important to check your sources, click

779
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: bios and check for parity notices or other stories that

780
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: might look fishy, and look for corroborating stories about the

781
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: alleged incident or report. Well, this is just a throwaway

782
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: clickbait post about viewvers. We've talked in the past about

783
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 1: far more damaging tweets and stories that fundamentally impact how

784
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: folks view women's leagues and players. So do your homework.

785
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 1: Our social media accounts are basically megaphones at this point.

786
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 1: What you choose to share and repost matters, So make

787
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: sure you're sharing the facts and never the what the facts?

801
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 1: we're on the subject of Caitlin Clark's return, videos for

802
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: the interview I did with Marina Mabray a few weeks

803
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: ago started getting flooded with comments this week after Maybury's

804
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: aggressive bump of Kaitlin Clark during the particularly physical Fever

805
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 1: Sun game on Tuesday night. In case you missed it,

806
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 1: J C. Sheldon accidentally poked Clark in the eye while

807
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 1: defending her, and Clark pushed Sheldon away, leading to Mabrey's

808
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: bump of Clark hard enough to knock her to the ground.

809
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: Tita Charles stepped in and she and Clark were both

810
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 1: assessed technical fouls, while Maybury was given a flagrant three

811
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 1: players Sophie Cunningham, J. C. Sheldon, and Lynz Se Allen

812
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: all ended up ejected late in the game for a

813
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: completely different incident, and Maybury's flagrant foul was upgraded to

814
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: a flagrant two on Wednesday. So yeah, like I said,

815
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: particularly physical game, Maybury's bump was clearly not a basketball

816
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: play and the league handled it correctly. But Caitlin Clark

817
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: stands now see Maybury as public enemy number one, which

818
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 1: leads us back to my Instagram and the interview I

819
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: did with Marina where she's hilariously discussing her worst trash

820
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,959
Speaker 1: talk making fun of another player's dog, and that video

821
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: is now seeing a lot of clown face and trash

822
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 1: can emojis along with some unhinged comments like trash talk

823
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: from a trash player, No one will remember you, Karma

824
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: is coming for you, You'll get yours. You look like

825
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: a McDonald's employee, and without CC you'd make less than

826
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: a McDonald's manager every year for the rest of your career.

827
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 1: Room temp IQ petitioned to cancel the Connecticut Sons and

828
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 1: Marina Maybury for not showing sportsmanship and displaying violence on

829
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: the court. What a D list player looks like you're

830
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 1: a clown emoji. Can't wait to see you get legit

831
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,920
Speaker 1: knocked out mid game for your third grade trash talk. Whoof.

832
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: While I love fans of women's sports being passionate about

833
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 1: their teams and players, I'll never enduse harassing folks on

834
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: social media, and I certainly can't understand spending your one

835
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: wild and precious life searching the Internet for videos of

836
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: a player so you can comment with trash can emojis

837
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 1: and a desire to see them injured. Also, I got

838
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 1: some strays just for being in the video.

839
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 2: What the fuck?

840
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 1: Come on, folks, Get some perspective. Root for your faves,

841
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 1: heck hate on your rivals if you want to. You

842
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: can even trash talk about them at baverbial water cooler,

843
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: but taking personal shots at someone's looks and wishing harm

844
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,439
Speaker 1: on them for a flagrant foul or a physical play

845
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: that's out of control. I promise you no WNBA player,

846
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark or anyone else wants you up in the

847
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: comments of other players with this messiness. Get a grip.

848
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: We love that you're listening everybody, but we want you

849
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: to get in the game every day too. So here's

Speaker 1: squads if you don't already, got to keep up with

857
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,080

862
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 1: and review, y'all. It's easy. Watch the Supreme Court upholding

863
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: a Tennessee state law banning gender affirming care for minors,

864
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: rating just three out of nine justices with common sense

865
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: and compassion review. On Wednesday, the US Supreme Court passed

866
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 1: down a ruling in the case of the United States

867
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: Versus Scrimmetti, which was filed last year by three families

868
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: of trans children and a provider of gender affirming care

869
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 1: the six conservative justices on the Supreme Court voted to

870
00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 1: uphold SB one, a Tennessee law prohibiting certain medical treatments

871
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: for transgender miners. Under SB one, someone assigned a female

872
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,800
Speaker 1: at birth could not be prescribed testosterone, but someone assigned

873
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: male at birth could receive those drugs. Justice is Sonya Sodomyor,

874
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: Katanji Brown Jackson, and Elena Kagan dissented from the majority opinion,

875
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: and in her descent, Justice Sodomyra wrote, in part quote,

876
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:24,439
Speaker 1: by retreating from meaningful judicial review exactly where it matters most,

877
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 1: the Court abandons transgender children and their families to political whims.

878
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: In sadness, I dissent end quote. This is a disheartening

879
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 1: decision with implications that could set a negative precedent for

880
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:40,760
Speaker 1: other lawsuits across the country involving the rights of transgender children.

881
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,720
Speaker 1: Power is being taken away from the people who should

882
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,359
Speaker 1: be making these decisions and instead put in the hands

883
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 1: of government officials. Just in my own circle, I know

884
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 1: a family that's moving abroad to a different country so

885
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 1: all their children can feel safe, and another family that's

886
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: seen the hospital that provides care to their child pause

887
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: gender care surgeries in response to Trump executive order back

888
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: in January that threatened to cut federal funding to healthcare

889
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:07,919
Speaker 1: providers offering gender affirming medical care. My friend posted about

890
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: the hospital after the EO was announced, saying, quote, I

891
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 1: will only speak from my experience and my perspective on

892
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,240
Speaker 1: here as a mother. It has helped me better support

893
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 1: my gender non conforming kid. It has welcomed us, celebrated us,

894
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 1: and opened a door to community we really needed. We

895
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 1: waited a year to get in, and now that we

896
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 1: finally are, and EO is trying to shut it down.

897
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 1: There are so many scary things happening, and our lives

898
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 1: are steeped in so much privilege. Whatever happens, we will

899
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,200
Speaker 1: fight loud and hard and be okay. But the larger

900
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 1: implications for multiple eos targeting queer youth are dizzying. All

901
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 1: parents and educators should fear that the highest office is

902
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 1: dictating who a child can or cannot be. I could

903
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:48,800
Speaker 1: talk to you about how much I've learned from my

904
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 1: kid about the social construct of gender, the nuance of gender,

905
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 1: the beautiful spectrum of who we all are. But honestly,

906
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 1: I'm tired, and I just want to say, at its core,

907
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 1: This is healthcare, babes. What a thing to have to

908
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 1: fight for. End quote. Trans kids and trans people continue

909
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 1: to sit in the crosshairs of political bullies within and

910
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 1: outside of government. But though this moment stings, the fight

911
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 1: continues to ensure their autonomy, their safety, and ability to

912
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 1: make decisions that reflect what's in the best interest of

913
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 1: their mental, emotional, and physical health. Now it's your turn

914
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,560
