It's created 45 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: a lot of discussions around the racial, gender, and social 46 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: dynamics from her legal saga, and brought a fairly unprecedented 47 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: amount of attention to the population of wrongful detainees. Grinder's wife, Cherrell, 48 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: released a statement after Britney's release the pledge support for 49 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: Paul Will and another US citizen jailed in Russia. As 50 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: part of an Instagram post thanking all who had supported 51 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: her family through the ordeal, she stated, I appreciate each 52 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: and every one of you. Let's continue to use our hands, voices, platforms, 53 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,119 Speaker 1: and resources to bring Paul and all Americans home. All 54 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: families deserve to be whole. What I love about that 55 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: story is that Cherrell and the WNBA. We've seen Joe 56 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: Biden involved in that whole process, obviously, but the fact 57 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: that they've won in the sense that Brittany's come home, 58 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: but she's actually using that moment to call out for 59 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: someone like Paul. You know, in situations like that, people 60 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: feel this immense relief, but they're actually using that platform 61 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: to keep calling for change, which is pretty cool. 62 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was very impressed with Charrell's statement, and like 63 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 2: you said, just the energy and the importance that they're 64 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: putting behind that kind of, you know, effort to free 65 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: those Americans just still held overseas and it was it 66 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: was it must have been tough for them because it 67 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 2: would initially Biden offered up, but the Biden administration offered 68 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: up the arms dealer, Yes for two you want to 69 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 2: you know, they wanted both Americans, but I guess they 70 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: had to kind of at the end of the day 71 00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: they realized it was only going to be one. It 72 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: was going to be Brittney grun and not Paul Wheeling, 73 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: and I just have to make that call. So it'd 74 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: feel a bit of guilt, wouldn't you Like, it'd be 75 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: hard not to feel that kind of guilt that your 76 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: partner was coming home but there was an American being 77 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: left there. 78 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty full on. 79 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a. 80 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: Very heavy situation, especially for something that you know, at 81 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 2: the end of the day, Beg said that she packed 82 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 2: too fast and left the canisters in her luggage and 83 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: it was her mistake, you know, for something that's completely 84 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 2: legal where she's from. Yeah, horrible in snow sports. Another 85 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: weekend of mocal dominance from Jakara Anthony. She won gold 86 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: in the freestyle moguls in Sweden to be two from 87 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 2: two this season.

Anthony 90 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 2: said after the race, it's a wild way to kick 91 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 2: off the season with back to back wins here. 92 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 3: And in Ruka. 93 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 2: I'm really proud of how I've been able to progress 94 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: over the days I've been here on the course. There's 95 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: been a lot of figuring out to do, a lot 96 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: of changes to make, and I think I'm making in 97 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 2: the right direction. Interestingly, is a bit off topic, but. 98 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 3: I saw an. 99 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 2: Article recently that the Winter Olympics host for I want 100 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 2: to say twenty thirty six, which seems like the future, 101 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: but it's really not awfully far away. Well, apparently they 102 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 2: were due to announce the host of the Winter Olympics 103 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: for twenty thirty six last month and they've delayed it. 104 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 2: And one of the reasons, one of the main reasons 105 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 2: they've delayed it is because the countries and cities that 106 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: have applied for it They've got to do some research 107 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 2: into the climate change effects on those cities to make. 108 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 3: Sure there will still be. 109 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: Snow wow in those cities. That's scary, isn't it. 110 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: So it's not going to be a threadbow with the 111 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: fake snow pumping O. 112 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 3: I think so. I think unfortunately. 113 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 2: I think we're quite winter Olympics year when it's a 114 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: good season. 115 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, surely.

So we've got 177 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 2: to convert those into the domestic fans. 178 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: Because the big events like the World Cup quet the appetite. 179 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 3: Wet as an h in. 180 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: The appetite right for what's to come. And so if 181 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: they do a good job of setting up marketing that product, 182 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: fans just naturally flow on. You really want to ride 183 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 1: that wave. 184 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 2: In boxing, Ebony Bridges retained the IBF bantamweight World titled 185 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: defeating fellow Australian Shannon O'Connell on Sunday morning in Leeds. 186 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 2: It was a pretty intense build up to the bout 187 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: and the fight itself did not let fans down. In 188 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: the lead up to the fight, O'Connell had called Bridges 189 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: a skanky stripper, making reference to bridges routine of wearing 190 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 2: lingerte wayes enter a recent deal with only fans. Post fight, 191 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 2: Bridges call that out when she said not bad for 192 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: a skanky stripper, I must say not bad for a 193 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 2: skanky stripper. 194 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: It's quite full on. 195 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 3: It was intense. 196 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, we watched the fight, and great fight. She Bridges 197 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 2: really took it to her. She was just all over it. 198 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 2: A bit rocked in the first round, but after that 199 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 2: just continually moving forward behind her jab. 200 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 3: But yeah, the chat was pretty full long. 201 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 2: She said, I'm not usually disrespectful to my opponent, but 202 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 2: she was so disrespectful to me the whole time, so 203 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 2: I can't really give her that much respect. 204 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 3: She can hit, but she can bang. 205 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 2: She came, she was hungry, she was fierce, but I 206 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 2: was better and that's why I'm the champion. It was 207 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 2: Bridge's first title defense and although like I said, she 208 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 2: was rocked in that first round, she went on to 209 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 2: dictate terms for the remainder of the entertaining fight and 210 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 2: she was just really swarming pressure like just always advancing. 211 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 2: English referee Howd Foster stopped about after O'Connell took a 212 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 2: number of punches halfway through the eighth round, was struggling 213 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 2: to keep a hands up in defense. It was a 214 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 2: probably pretty timely stoppage. Poor old O'Connell's face had taken 215 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 2: a bit of a beat. 216 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: It didn't look good towards the end, did it No, 217 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: So we've seen Bridges has almost taken on this role 218 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: of campaigning for the importance of femininity in boxing. I'd 219 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: say for it to be celebrated and recognized. She took 220 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: to Instagram last month and spoke about how important it 221 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: is to be a woman and not lose that. She said, 222 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: it seems to be the fashion nowadays for a girl 223 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: to behave as much like a man as possible. Well, 224 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: I don't think we need to do that to be respected, 225 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: and I'll continue to fight for femininity. It's a naive 226 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: sort of feminism that insists that women prove their ability 227 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 1: by doing all the things how men do them. Sure, 228 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 1: we can do stereotypically masculine things, but we can do 229 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: them whilest still embracing our femininity and remaining a woman 230 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: and not be judged for it. Look, there's definitely parts 231 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: of that that I disagree with. I would say I 232 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: completely dis agree with the fact that that there's a 233 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: lot of female athletes out there who are trying as 234 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: best they possibly can to behave and compete like men. Absolutely, 235 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: I think we've done an amazing job in women's sport 236 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:16,079 Speaker 1: as a whole in pushing for equality and equitable positions, 237 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: while still at the same time recognizing that women in 238 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: sport provide a completely different product to men's sport. 239 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 2: And absolutely, you're right, I one hundred percent agree with 240 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 2: that that we whilst playing the same sport, it is 241 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 2: a different end product. The other thing that I kind 242 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 2: of take umbriage to this is why do you have 243 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 2: to gender it like it's she talks about. She goes 244 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: on to say another note, but the same page. I'll 245 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 2: always call women's boxing women's boxing because I'm proud to 246 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: be a woman. I'm proud of women's boxing. It's just boxing, 247 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: like it's a man or a woman doing it. You're 248 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 2: doing it differently, sure, you know, but I just think that, 249 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 2: you know, gendering it is putting paining yourself into corners. 250 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 2: It's sport, and the sooner that everyone realizes that we 251 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 2: can all play sport together, you know, the better, And 252 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 2: I just, yeah, I do. 253 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 3: Agree with her right to. 254 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: Feel that way and to want to market herself the 255 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: way she does. You know, power to her, she's an 256 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 2: amazing athlete, but it is it doesn't sit comfortably with 257 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: me that she kind of calls it a naive sort 258 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 2: of feminism that women have to prove their ability by 259 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: doing things how men do them. I don't think that's 260 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 2: what people are setting out to do it all. I 261 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: think they're setting out to play sport and to play 262 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 2: sport at their best ability. Yeah. 263 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. And I think what you've touched 264 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: on there on that femininity piece, I don't think she 265 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: actually acknowledges that real spectrum. Like she is well within 266 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: her right, like you said, to wear whatever she wants 267 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: to wear when she goes to her weigh in and 268 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: does things like that, but she also has to acknowledge, 269 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: if she's using her platform to call things out like this, 270 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 1: that there may be so female athletes who don't want 271 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: to dress like that, and that's okay as well. Absolutely, 272 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 1: they don't have to completely embrace their femininity and dress 273 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: in lingerie in order to be considered a female athlete. 274 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 3: Totally agree with you, which is weird. 275 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 2: We should move on on to the next please. In cricket, 276 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 2: the Australian team is in India and they made an 277 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 2: impressive start to their tour with a comfortable win in 278 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 2: Game one. India batted first and set a competitive total 279 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 2: of five one hundred and seventy two, but new skipper 280 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 2: Alyssa Heay got the run chase off to the right 281 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 2: start with a fast thirty seven off twenty three balls 282 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 2: before Beth Mooney, who just cannot stop scoring. 283 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: Runs, can't stop, won't stop, can't. 284 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: Stop, won't stop, took over and steered the Aussies to victory. 285 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 2: Mooney finished unbeaten, scoring eighty nine off just fifty seven 286 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 2: balls with sixteen boundaries, and was well supported by Tylie 287 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 2: McGrath who's forty nine out came off twenty nine balls. 288 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 3: They cruised to required total. 289 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: Finishing with one for one hundred and seventy three with 290 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 2: eleven balls remaining. That took the Aussies to twenty one 291 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: games undefeated on the trot in all forms of the game. 292 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 3: Oh, they hadn't lost close, and they had not lost 293 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 3: a game. 294 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 2: In any format in twenty twenty two until this morning, 295 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 2: Monday morning, that is. 296 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 3: The game two of the tour was close. In fact, 297 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 3: it couldn't have been closer. 298 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 2: It was a tie in front of a huge sold 299 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 2: out forty five thousand fans in Mumbai. Can we just 300 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 2: that to me? I woke up this morning to update 301 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 2: the research.

The assis is batted first and set 322 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 2: a big total of one for one hundred and eighty 323 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: seven for the host to chase Beth Moony again eighty 324 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 2: two not out off fifty four and McGraths seventy not 325 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 2: out off fifty one, producers stre's highest ever T twenty 326 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: international partnership and left Indian needing to make. 327 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 3: History with a record chase to level the series. 328 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 2: They batted with intent and with one over left they 329 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 2: need fourteen runs for the win. Megan Shoot had the 330 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 2: ball and Devika Vaider needed a six to win off 331 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 2: the last ball or four to tie the match. So 332 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 2: she found the boundary and we went to a super over. 333 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 2: Indians batted first in the tiebreaker and Healey handed the 334 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 2: ball to debutante Heather Graham, first international for Australia. 335 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: That's pretty hectic in front of a packed Indian crowd. 336 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: I like, I think that's amazing leadership from Healy. 337 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: So she had taken three for twenty two off her four, 338 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 2: so she deserved yep.

Unfortunately, smirty Mandhana scored thirteen off her 340 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 2: three delivery she faced and Richard Gosh six off two 341 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 2: both cleared the boundary to take twenty runs off Graham 342 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 2: and record the best super over in women's tea twenty 343 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 2: international history. 344 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: Well it's a bit hard, isn't it. 345 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 3: Yep. 346 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 2: It was then our turn, the Ozzies, but Alyssa Healey, 347 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 2: Ashgartner and Tyler McGrath could only manage sixteen runs off 348 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 2: Nuuka to Kua, bringing to an end astraas unbeaten run 349 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 2: across all formats in twenty twenty two. 350 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: Wait, so we lost the game or we tired the game? 351 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: We lost the game. 352 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 3: We lost it because it's like then. 353 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: We went into the super over. I see, I see see. 354 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: In rugby union, the Ozzie seven's team fell just short 355 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: of going back to back in the World Series on 356 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: the weekend, going down to New Zealand in the final 357 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: thirty one to fourteen. New Zealand dominated from the opening 358 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: whistle in wet conditions in Cape Town and scored three 359 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 1: unanswered tries in the first half. It's three unanswered tries 360 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: in the first half is tough mentally to come back from. 361 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 1: They gave it a crack, they struggled to build pressure 362 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: and when michaelab Blyde scored the opening try the second 363 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: half to take the score to twenty six, now it 364 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: was a little bit too late, I think for Thozzies 365 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: to have any real crack. It has been a spectacular 366 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: year for the Ozzies though, and the loss of the 367 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 1: Black Ferns was their first double digit defeat in forty 368 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: seven games. 369 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 3: That's super impressive. 370 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 1: The amount of work that they've put into their strength 371 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: and conditioning, fitness, but in particular their defense. Like that's 372 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: that's a very impressive stat They are going to head 373 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: home now to regroup before the next stop in Hamilton, 374 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: New Zealand on the twenty first and twenty second of January. 375 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: I should have extended by New Zealand trip. 376 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 3: You should have. 377 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: That was a poor planning. 378 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 3: It's not too late, I think I might. I think 379 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 3: you should. 380 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: That will be followed by leg four on the twenty 381 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: seventh to the twenty. 382 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm not so o friend shopping, can you use 383 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 3: a gold medal as entrance?

Wall had covered soccer for more 404 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 2: than two decades, including eleven World Cups, six men's five women's. 405 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 2: It earlier gained global attention when he was one of 406 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 2: two US journos who were detained when they arrived to 407 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 2: cover the usav Wales game wearing rainbow T shirts in 408 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 2: support of the LGBTQ plus community.

Eric said that 411 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 2: he is gay, and then his brother was wearing the 412 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: shirt in support of him. He claimed that Grant had 413 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 2: received death threats and pleaded for help to investigate the 414 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 2: matter further. There is no evidence at this point of 415 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 2: foul play, according to authorities. In addition to the rain 416 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 2: Both themed shirt, Will has been an outspoken critic of 417 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 2: the Katari government and its hosting of the World Cup. 418 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 2: He wrote on Friday, they just don't care. Katari World 419 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,959 Speaker 2: Cup organizers don't even hide their apathy over migrant worker deaths, 420 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 2: including the most recent one that was in an article 421 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 2: on his substep. The US soccer community shared and median 422 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 2: outpouring of grief over the news, with hundreds of tributes 423 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 2: for Grant shared across social media platforms. The National Women's 424 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 2: Soccer League issued a statement that read, in part, we 425 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 2: are heartbroken by the news of Grant Wall's death. His 426 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 2: commitment to sharing the stories of our beautiful game was unmatched, 427 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 2: but more importantly, his integrity, thoughtfulness, and kindness was central 428 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 2: to the way he lived. There's been a lot of that. 429 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 2: Everything I've read speaks to the kind of man he was. Obviously, 430 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 2: he's been involved in US soccer for a long time, 431 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 2: probably during a time when soccer wasn't as prominent in 432 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 2: the sporting landscape now is, and. 433 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: I think that's why we wanted to pay tribute to 434 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: him in this episode, because as a journalist, you have 435 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:14,360 Speaker 1: incredible power to spotlight and highlight the voices of minorities, 436 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: which is what he lived his life doing, which is 437 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: pretty special. 438 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Meghan Rappino said on Twitter, this is so devastating. 439 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: All the love to his family and loved ones, and 440 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 2: US Soccer paid tribute to Wall's contribution to the sport 441 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 2: in their statement, writing here in the United States, Grant's 442 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 2: passion for soccer and commitment to elevating its profile across 443 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 2: our sporting landscape played a major role in helping to 444 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 2: drive interest in and respect for our beautiful game. As important, 445 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 2: Grant's belief in the power of the game to advance 446 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 2: human rights was and will remain an inspiration to all. 447 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 2: Grant made soccer his life's work, and we're devastated that 448 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 2: he and his brilliant writing will no longer be with us. 449 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: In AFLW, The afl announced last week that it will 450 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 1: remove white shorts from on field uniforms in the AFLW 451 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: and other female competitions. Oh it's a bit of a 452 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: moment where you just like let out a sigh of relief. 453 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, how did you feel? Did you know this was coming. 454 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: I think it's been something that has been in discussion 455 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: probably for a number of years. I know a lot 456 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: of players and administrators have been pushing for it, and 457 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a very common sense decision. I from 458 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: what I understand, it had almost been. I think when 459 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,879 Speaker 1: new women's leagues come into play, you often just follow 460 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: what has worked in the men and so the reason 461 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 1: that we wore white away shorts was to prevent that clash. 462 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: And so the home team will wear their home colors 463 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: and the away team would wear white shorts, and that 464 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: was I guess, the way to make sure you could 465 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: tell who was on which team. But it's a real 466 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: case by case basis where that doesn't necessarily work as 467 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: the most effective strategy in women's sport. 468 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: Correct me if I'm wrong at all of you Victorian listeners, 469 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 2: But I'm I believe it's another one of those instances 470 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 2: where because of tradition and because it was always done 471 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 2: that way, it stayed that way. And I believe that 472 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 2: the white shorts in the men's game originated from back 473 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 2: in the days of black and white television. 474 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: Oh you're joking. 475 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 2: Nice, so colored shorts, like if you so you were 476 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 2: wearing your orange shorts and someone was wearing red shorts. 477 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 2: Can't tell the difference, but the black or dark a 478 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 2: colored short versus white short on black and white TV, 479 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 2: you can tell the difference. 480 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: Is that true, because that's a great fact. 481 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, it's in my mind. It's true. 482 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: You can stay. You're hired for twenty twenty three. Back 483 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: to the story. The league's decision follows consultation with AFLW 484 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: clubs and female players, and will come into effect ahead 485 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,239 Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty three AFLW season. The AFLW are 486 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: looking to eliminate performance anxiety faced by players during their 487 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: menstrual cycles. The league's head of Mental Health and well Being, 488 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 1: Kate Hall, said, prioritizing our players health and well being 489 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: and supporting everyone to play Australian rules football is critical 490 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 1: in everything we do at the A. This policy is 491 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: to ensure women and girls can confidently play and enjoy 492 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: Australian rules football free from the impact of period stigma. 493 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: All eighteen AFLW clubs will continue to have colored shorts 494 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: for home matches and can wear these in any match 495 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: throughout the season. All clubs will also have another colored 496 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: set of shorts to be worn if there is a 497 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: clash in uniforms instead of the standard white away shorts. 498 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 1: Common sense. Let's take a look at the key story. 499 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 1: We're mixing it up a little bit this week, and 500 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: we opened up our question box on Instagram.

Which is Bear's favorite sporting moment of 504 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. 505 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 2: Cannot go past the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand 506 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 2: twenty twenty one World Cup played in twenty twenty two. Yeah, 507 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 2: thank you COVID, But look that was just an absolute 508 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 2: feast of women's fifteen s rugby. The games were exceptional, 509 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 2: the crowds were great, and it was all capped off 510 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 2: with the hosts getting a three point win at sold 511 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 2: out Eden Park with in front of fifty thousand roughing 512 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: Rothen Kiwi's Yeah, I think we've spoken about it before, 513 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 2: but if you could just take a little snip of. 514 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 3: What that means to players watching Stacy Lula, I walk up. 515 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 3: I always going to call the walk up at Stacy 516 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 3: Flulla walk off that field. Apparently. I think she broke 517 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 3: her ankle, did she? 518 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: I don't know what that's when she was. 519 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 2: Walking on it because fifty thousand people were cheering her 520 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 2: off and they were just carrying her on a wave 521 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 2: of goodwill and awesomeness. 522 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: Wow. 523 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 3: Crazy. Yeah. 524 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: My favorite moment, thank you for asking, I'd. 525 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 3: Say, was you can give me a chance. 526 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a it's one moment in particular. 527 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: I think it was multiple that culminated to this point. 528 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: I think the crowds that we saw on multiple occasions 529 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: in women's football across the globe looking at the Barcelona 530 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: women's football team, looking at the WSL and the UK 531 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 1: looking at the women's national team in their five for 532 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: equal pay. I think the fact that it's just this 533 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: really cold, hard evidence of the appetite, the appetite and 534 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: the fan base that is there for women's football and 535 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: for women's sport more broadly. And I thought the Men's 536 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: World Cup when the US advanced and won the thirteen 537 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: meal in prize money, that because of the equal pay 538 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: agreement that was in place. That meant that the US 539 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 1: women's team would get that six point five mel was 540 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: a huge moment in I guess, really making it more 541 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 1: tangible what happens when you have adequate agreements in place 542 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: for equal pay. 543 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely right, And I think it's interesting you speak 544 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 2: about it wasn't just one tournament or one game or 545 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 2: one moment. It's what is really a groundswell of support 546 00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 2: for what they do call the world game. You know, 547 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 2: this is a game that, whilst it might not be 548 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 2: in the top two codes in our country, it is 549 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 2: huge across the planet and it's changing perceptions and people 550 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 2: are getting on board, and it's a delight because a 551 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 2: rising tide lifts or boats. 552 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: I love that quote so much. Let's go with here. 553 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: I quite like this one from Lexi. How did you 554 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: and bes meet? 555 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 3: Oh? 556 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: You can tell that story. 557 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 3: Funnily enough, many years ago. I don't even know how 558 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:32,119 Speaker 3: long ago it was. 559 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: It was a while now, maybe twenty thirteen, almost ten years. 560 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 3: I guess. 561 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 2: I was the benefit of Chloe's Google. She was out 562 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 2: there googling how to win a gold medal because that 563 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 2: was her dream, and found that rugby was a thing. Obviously, 564 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 2: her family heavily linked to the Mighty Ringer Rats. And yeah, 565 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 2: one of our mutual friends brought her down to pre 566 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 2: season training. 567 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 3: It was I'm glad you asked this question. 568 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 2: Actually it was an early glimpse into the competitive beast 569 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 2: that lies inside my friend. She first training of the year, 570 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 2: pre season. We're down at Narrabeen Beach playing a you know, 571 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 2: doing a bit of skills, a bit of fitness. At 572 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 2: the end we finished with a game of flags, which 573 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 2: happened to be cut up bits of pipe I believe, 574 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 2: or yeah, hose anyway, it doesn't matter what or sticks. 575 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: I think it was sticks. It's usually hose at nippers, 576 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: but I think it was stick. 577 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're playing some flags, new Girl. You know, there's 578 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 2: probably fifteen girls there. The brand new Girl first session 579 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: goes and wins. It has to win. It uses it 580 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 2: like shoves people out of the way to win it physically. 581 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 2: I was like, okay, we've got a competitor here. So yeah, 582 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 2: that's how we met. 583 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: Not very smooth at making friends. My competitive drive just 584 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: took over. 585 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think he probably realized pretty early that 586 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 2: that was going to be respected in that environment. 587 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 3: Maybe, or maybe maybe you're just A. It's hard to say. 588 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: No one knows from l R. This is a hard one. 589 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: Do you think in your lifetime you'll see equality between 590 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: men's and women's sport? 591 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 3: I hope so. 592 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 2: I think that's a pretty gray answer. But depending on 593 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 2: what you mean by equality, I think investment. Again, we 594 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,479 Speaker 2: always speak about investment. I think if the investment can 595 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 2: be equal, and absolutely we'll see equality. Until that time, though, 596 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 2: equality could mean a lot of different things, and it 597 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 2: could mean it might not mean the exact same wages. 598 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 2: I'm hoping it means the exact same opportunities, and I 599 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 2: think that that investment brings up. If the investment is 600 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 2: right and brings the opportunities, then we will see the growth. 601 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 2: You know, females make up fifty percent of the population 602 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 2: on the planet. 603 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: There's so much growth potential, isn't there huge growth? I 604 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: think I will completely agree with your answer, and my 605 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: only ad on will be I still stick by this prediction, 606 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: which I think is backed by evidence. Is I reckon 607 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: in about ten years time, it's going to reach this 608 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,479 Speaker 1: point where the brands and companies that didn't get on 609 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: board with women's sport are really going to regret that 610 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: they didn't get on board with the women's sport yep. 611 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: Absolutely Who to watch in twenty twenty three from Brad 612 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: and a couple more people on the who to watch 613 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: and which event to watch in twenty twenty three? 614 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 2: Well, which event is obviously the Women's Soccer World Card. 615 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 3: It's got to be cannot wait. 616 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: And who to watch at that is going to be 617 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: Mary Fowler. Obviously Samko takes the cake, but Mary Fowler 618 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: is at Next Gen and she's exciting. 619 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 3: She is exciting, and I'm really looking forward to seeing 620 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 3: how they can use them together. 621 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 1: H I totally agree the more scoring options in front 622 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: of goal future goals from Eloise for I imagine that's 623 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: for Tefapp. Great question, I think. 624 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 3: I think, first of all, I'd like to have a 625 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 3: really nice Christmas party on Sunday. 626 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking forward to that.

I think 635 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: there's a real appetite for that. While I've said the 636 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: word appetite a lot for this episode, you're hungry, I'm starving. 637 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: I always am. And live events, that's the other one 638 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: I'd really like us to do more of because that 639 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: live podcast we did with Rhiannon was one of my 640 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 1: favorite events of the year. I think getting people to 641 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: watch these female athletes live, there's nothing really like it. 642 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 2: And again it comes back to that engaging with someone, 643 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 2: getting to know someone you know, becoming a real fan. 644 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: I reckon.
