The GIST of It

I love the Gist pod. Its like hanging out with my besties although I’m old enough to be their Auntie. Ellen and Steph get me. I find myself replying to their takes out loud as I listen and they just seem like they are having fun. And they are 🇨🇦. Come to Vancouver to meet up when the Rise kick off!

As someone who is not a self-described sports fanatic but enjoys watching sports and keeps up with the major events, I love having this podcast to turn to for quick updates. I would love to see more in-depth coverage of the major issues and for the interviews with sports stars to be longer and more in-depth. I just listened to the Napheesa Collier one and both Napheesa and interviewer Lauren are amazing, but I was just left wanting more. These don’t feel like answers that only the Gist can get out of the athletes, they feel very general and expected and that’s just not what I’m looking for from an interview with athletes.

Absolutely love this podcast! It is a must listen to for me. It takes an inclusive approach to sports. Thanks ladies& keep it up (please 😊)

I’ve been listening to this podcast basically since it came out! I love sports and have played them my whole life but found the way the majority of media talked about it wasn’t accessible. This tells the girlies everything we want to know! Also with the shift in more funding for women's sports it’s the go to place for all the details. They set you up to know what you need to know and it really hypes everything up!
