Marathoner Emma Bates went viral after sharing that her sponsor, UCan, dropped her once they learned she was pregnant. While UCan denied the allegation, it still reminded us of an unfortunate reality for women athletes – that the “pregnancy penalty” still exists. We break down what the penalty is, why some women athletes view pregnancy as a “death sentence” to their career, and how athletes like Allyson Felix have fought to stop it.
In this episode, we also cover:
Naomi Osaka retirement rumors swirling after her comments around motherhood and her tennis career, Shaq addressing the AI-generated texts between him and Sabrina Carpenter, and the NWSL smashing record attendance yet again.
