SwimSwam Podcast: Lia Neal on Getting to Know Swimmers Outside the Pool

When I talked with Lia Neal, she was at her parents' house in Brooklyn, at the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Luckily, they don't have to go outside much, and while she makes grocery runs, her home does a lot of the cooking. Lia talked about her new YouTube channel, where she has been posting weekly vlogs in which you can get to know her as a person, not just a swimmer.

 

*** Since this talk, Lia has started an initiative to educate the community on what Black Lives Matters means and raise money for charity, Swimmers for Change, that you can check out here. ***
