The Pay Check is back with a bonus episode on gender equality in women's soccer. A few months ago, the US women's soccer team filed a pay discrimination lawsuit alleging that they do not get equal pay for equal work.

Rebecca Greenfield talks with Eben Novy Williams about the fight for equality in the US and then heads to Bloomberg's UK Equality Summit for our first ever live taping to talk with English soccer legend Kelly Smith, head of the Women's Super League Kelly Simmons and Lenah Ueltzen-Gabell about the fight for equal treatment in the UK.
