Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
I'm Sarah Spain, host of Good Game with Sarah Spain,
the first and only daily women's sports show. Every episode,
I share the biggest news of the day, talk about
the games you just can't miss, and break down the takes,
trends and topics dominating women's sports social media. I chop
it up with athletes. Can you tell us about being Uncle? Narel?

(00:22):
Hated this nickname coaches. One of Page's biggest strengths is
the fact that she's delusional. Reporters, it's l Duncan. What's up? El?
That was a hell of a bio, Sarah Espanya and
celebrity fans. The fact that I started making music and
the world heard it was just unfathomable. Wow Wow. I

(00:45):
offer up thoughtful, insight, helpful explainers and throwbacks to historical
events and moments in women's sports, so you've got all
the context you need to enjoy and understand the games
of today. Sometimes, my fabulous producers Alex and Misha hop
on to get there for perspectives and takes as well.
On any given day, we might be talking Caitlin Clark,
Paige Becker's and the other young stars of the WNBA

(01:07):
breakout performances in the NWSL. Hello Barbara Banda. Names you
need to know in the pwhl AUSL, and WTA. We're
chatting with the TV, movie and music stars who sit
courtside for your favorite squads. When we start a good
game in July of twenty twenty four, we wanted to
make sure that folks who were new to women's sports
felt right at home alongside the ogs who'd been waiting

(01:30):
for decades for just this kind of content, And you
all showed up like immediately. Now there are so many
of you with us here in what we like to
consider the good Place, and we're so glad to have you.
This community came together so quickly because we all know
the not so well kept secret. There's nothing like women's sports.

(01:53):
We've got wives winning Olympic gold together, franchises standing up
for the rights of the communities that support them, feeds
of athleticism, strength and bravery that inspire, and folks of
every single race, religion, sexuality, identity, and background welcomed and supported.
The women's sports community is truly like no other. So

(02:13):
we made good game. Just like women's sports, the best
of the competition, teamwork, achievement, rivalry, excitement, and pageantry that
we all love in sports, minus the toxicity and the
exclusionary vibes you see too often on the men's side.
We're more interested in rallying everyone around the good stuff

(02:34):
than we are in picking fights or gatekeeping. We're not cheerleaders,
though we do call out people, teams and policies when
we need to because we know sometimes folks just aren't
get to get it right. And we close out every
show the same way you finish a good game with
a handshake line, a high five, and a good game
to those who've earned it and a few for those

(02:54):
who haven't. Season one might be over, but we're just
getting started, So tune in for season two and tell
your friends, enemies, lovers, and neighbors. The bigger this community gets,
the better. The more folks out there, armed with the
star steak stats and stories of women's sports that they
need to tune in, show up and spend money, the
more investors, media and sponsors will pour into this thing

(03:16):
that we love. So don't just listen to Good Game,
share it too. Good Game with Sarah Spain is an
iHeart women's sports production in partnership with Deep Blue Sports.
