I’m so glad to have found this podcast! I learn so much from the guests, and Emma does a great job of asking the meaningful questions. Almost any social topic in the running world, you can find an episode discussing it in a way that is helpful, positive, and aimed at creating change in the running community.
Speaks to the intersections

As humans and athletes, we don’t live one-dimensional lives but rather exist in communities and ecosystems. On Social Sport, Emma does an excellent job drawing this out. Her guests are impressive and knowledgeable yet relatable, and Emma is a skilled interviewer. I am glad for a podcast that speaks to the many important intersections of athletics and activism.

In-depth, meaningful conversations

I discovered this podcast when Alison Wade was a guest; I’m a regular reader of her Fast Women newsletter and have heard her on podcasts before, but gained a new appreciation for her work and mission through this interview. That led me to subscribe and also to go back to the previous episodes. I’ve long believed sport can be a catalyst for change and it’s inspiring to hear from athletes and activists who put this belief into action. Extremely well done and so important, right now.
Great and Unique Conversations
