The Women’s World Cup is upon us and on this episode, I’m joined by Meg Linehan, a writer at The Athletic. We touch a bit on her background at the NWSL before moving to The Athletic full time. She'll be in France covering the Women’s World cup, mainly focused on the USWNT, but writing other stories on the tournament as well. We talk about the monster WWC primer she wrote for The Athletic, and preview the tournament.
We also talk about some of the off-field issues surrounding women's soccer, including the equal pay, the Women's National Team lawsuit, the future of the NWSL and the Hope Solo crusade against the U.S. Soccer Federation.
