Ep. 30 Locker Room Talk: College Sports & Rape Culture What They Don't Say: Sexual Assault and Everything in Between

In this episode, the ladies dive deep into the unfortunate reality of how college athletes are protected at all costs by universities. Through the lens of issues at the University of Colorado Boulder, they discuss the hiring of perpetrators, misconducts that have been covered up, and the direct ties of schools with big sports teams and rape culture. But, this is not just a problem at their college, this is a universal University problem. Cheers! (0:00) Introduction (0:24) Do you want a hat?
