What happens when the guest doesn’t show up? Bob is dismayed that his extensive notes will go unused. Matt could have been watching the Mets game. So we continue on - without a guest - and talk about the stuff in the notes anyway.
Thus began an awkward dance on the third rail of women’s hockey – from trans/non-binary athlete inclusion policies to the recent news about Digit Murphy, the 2-time Rink Stories podcast guest and new President of the Metropolitan Riveters.
Though likely littered with errors and inexact language, we hope this free-flowing conversation will spark listeners to look more closely at the complex and incendiary issues surrounding trans inclusion, in sports and elsewhere. Be sure to listen all the way to the end.
For further context, check out these folks on Twitter: Kirsti Miller, D.F. Pendrys, and Digit Murphy.
Plus, our usual fun and funny fare: Where Was Bob Last Week, the Way Back Machine, Hockey Haiku, and a little bit about hockey in Australia.
