Welcome to Is She Game! On this first episode, Coach Jackie is joined by the one and only Billie Jean King--tennis pioneer, women's sports advocate, and famed lesbian. The two show some love to BJK's most recent book, See It to Be It: Eleven Champions Leading Women's Sports Today, and Billie Jean demonstrates her surprising knowledge of queer and sports terminology. Plus: the rules of the pod, what's up in women's sports this week, and Jackie dishes on something that's technically not sports, but it's sports to her: Dancing With The Stars!
