192. Women at Work & The Episode That Wasn’t with Sarah Spain

Pioneering sports journalist – the brilliant, hilarious, badass Sarah Spain – joins us to reflect on:

1. One of our most popular episodes – Episode 147: The Episode That Wasn’t – when we ended an interview after the guest was disrespectful to our team member;
2. The constant indignities and inequities in male-dominated fields;
3. To report or not to report harassment – and what actually happens when you do report?; and
4. How to help ourselves – and come together to help each other – secure safer and more just work spaces.  

CW: sexual harassment
