This episode we are discussing federal funding of science. Proposals from the Trump Administration recommended cutting science funding among many other government services which lead to the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. Although a continuing resolution was passed until Jan 30th and largely Congress seems opposed to cutting science funding, the new budget for the year still hangs in the balance. This episode, we talked to Dr. Laura Hernandez, a dairy and women's health researcher, Katie Barnes and Roma Broadberry, two graduate students at The University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Becky Jacobs, a writer for the Cap Times. This episode was produced by Colin Hemme and Freyja Moser with music by John Leja. Thank you to Dr. Hernandez, Katie, Roma, and Becky for the interviews.

The San Jose State Spartans were preparing for another hopeful – but largely uneventful – women's volleyball season in 2024. But then a publication outed a player on that team as transgender and from there the protests and backlash grew seemingly by the day. Player lawsuits, coach accusations and boycott threats, and that was just from inside their own locker room. Soon teams all over the San Jose schedule decided to forfeit their matches, but also never gave an official reason why.  So today, ahead of the Mountain West Conference Tournament, Katie Barnes joins us to quiet the noise and turn up the conversation on a team from San Jose that just wants to play the game.

When Imane Khelif of Algeria defeated Italy's Angela Carini in just 46 seconds at the Paris Olympics, she should have been celebrating her advancing to the quarterfinals. Instead, Khelif found herself at the center of a firestorm focused on her gender. Because even though she was born a woman, has lived her life as a woman, and was verified by the International Olympic Committee as a woman. There were loud voices spreading the misinformation that a man had just beaten up a woman in an Olympic boxing match. It's a familiar debate that has raged at different points in the modern sports world. About who is and isn't eligible to take part in women's athletics. And a fight that hits even harder against women of color. So today, ESPN's Katie Barnes joins the show to explain how the history of eligibility in women's athletics is tied to a complicated science that doesn't lend itself to simple regulations. And to explore why we keep weaponizing gender when it comes to women's sports. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is the first year the Olympics have gender parity between men's and women's teams - but does it mean gender equity? ESPN writer Katie Barnes and Rose Eveleth, host of NPR's Tested, join Brittany to discuss the barriers that women athletes still face - from men-only categories to women-only sex testing. And later - in recent years, you may have noticed some new behemoths prowling the streets of America: giant trucks. The sheer size of them has sparked policy debates – many are so big that it's not possible to see a child crossing directly in front of them, and there's been a spike in pedestrian deaths. Brittany is joined by Angie Schmitt, author of Right of Way, to chat about why these big trucks are so popular and what they say about our cultural anxieties.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Last month, news broke about Caitlin Clark's $28 million shoe deal with Nike. It's undoubtedly a great business decision for both Nike and Clark as she transitions into becoming the most hyped WNBA rookie of all time, but the announcement begets a conversation about equity in the WNBA. In a league that is nearly 64% Black, the most marketed, endorsed, and featured players are mostly white. ESPN's Sean Hurd wrote about this for Andscape and ESPN's Katie Barnes has extensively covered women's basketball and its intersection with issues of race and gender. They're both here today to discuss how Caitlin's Nike deal will affect other superstars in the league like A'ja Wilson, Jonquel Jones and Angel Reese, and to provide context for how not only race, but also queerness and gender expression impact WNBA players' access to capital.

Kelsey Plum was one of the most dominant college basketball players we have ever seen, a top draft pick, and a would-be franchise savior for the team that picked her, the San Antonio Stars (now the Las Vegas Aces).

Now in her fifth season in the WNBA, Plum is finally playing to her potential and helped lead the Aces to the #1 overall seed in the playoffs. Katie Barnes tells us the story of how, after years of searching, Kelsey Plum has found herself, both on and off the court. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jonquel Jones has won almost every on-court WNBA accolade there is. Since being drafted sixth overall in 2016, Jones has been named the WNBA's Most Improved Player, Sixth Woman of the Year, and MVP. Before that, she was Maryland's Gatorade Player of the Year in high school, and a WBCA All-American. But despite being one of the most decorated players in basketball, many people outside of diehard WNBA fans may not have heard of Jones. Being Black and gay and describing herself as more masculine, Jones sits at an intersection that has traditionally struggled to attract brands and media, even though the WNBA is the most inclusive American professional sports league. ESPN's Katie Barnes talks to us about Jones' identity, and they tell us if this will finally be the season that Jones wins a title…and if she'll finally get to be herself.

ESPN's Katie Barnes joins us from the Women's Swimming and Diving Championships in Atlanta with the very latest on Lia's story, the potential public protests, as well as the ripple effect in state legislatures across the country, where Thomas has been invoked as an example for lawmakers seeking to restrict trans youth participation in sports.
