Strong Opinions Loosely Held

Refinery 29's award-winning podcast is back for season 4! In this five-part capsule collection, host Elisa Kreisinger dives into the world of the professional female athlete to explore how they've survived and thrived in a sports-loving country that doesn't alway love them back. Did you know that the highest grossing sport for women is tennis? Or that the US exports many of our best female athletes to China and Russia because they pay them a livable wage? This season we talk with soccer legend Abby Wambach, WNBA superstar Swin Cash, world renowned ballerina Isabella Boylston and sports journalists from around the country to unpack what it means to be a female athlete representing a country that doesn't support women. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I know a lot of the people involved in the podcast have moved on to other projects, but I hope they revisit this series or it’s somehow reborn. I absolutely loved this series during its airing and caught up via NPR one too.

Of the many podcasts that i have listened to over the years that have been canceled, this was one that deserved to live. As a white, just-turned-30, heterosexual male podcasts like these are important because they supplement our exposure to the perspectives and experiences that are made invisible to us by the culture at large in our daily lives. It isn’t enough to replace proper exposure via friends, loved ones, community etc. but its SOMTHING and thats important. Hope to hear you guys back on the airwaves soon!
Yes!

I prefer each new season less than the one before, but ultimately I LOVE this podcast. Please keep making more!
