Locker Room Talk: S1E11 - Sara & Kelly with Nicole Haase

Sara Gross & Kelly O'Mara get a behind-the-scenes look at the U.S. women’s hockey team’s historical pay deal; how they did it and what it means for the future of women’s sport. The team took a stand against inequitable treatment - and won big - at the recent World Championships. Hockey reporter Nicole Haase reveals the details behind the deal they struck and why their approach was successful. This historical action and ensuing pay equity agreement is just one of many wins for women’s sport in recent weeks. The U.S. women’s soccer team also won a settlement for pay equity, as did Ireland’s Football Team, which drew a line in the sand for basic rights. Plus some news as well as the Hype of the Week and a Gripe from the world of professional triathlon.
