A weekly podcast where Bez and Chloe break down the biggest stories in women's sport, dig into the issues that matter, and have a bit of a laugh along the way.

This week: wowee, there's some more surfing news! A 13-year old takes the U18s title, serena williams has a pitch side snap with ellie carpenter and england rugby decided to kick the ball out to end on a draw that ended their winning streak.

For the key story - well we need to look at what sports marketing is actually doing that doesn't rely on the 'just sports' style of advertising. How are companies seeing women's sports and what are google doing with making women's sports more discoverable on search?

sarah klau fined by netball australia and debrief on the wallaroos vs france game

Chloe sits down with Sophie Molineux, World Cup winner, WBBL captain, and one of Australian cricket’s most resilient and respected leaders.

From the outside, Sophie’s rise looked like a fairytale. Talent-spotted at just 10 years old in her regional hometown of Bairnsdale, she broke into the Australian setup as a teenager, winning World Cups and living out her childhood dream. But behind the silverware was a brutal, multi-year reality check—facing a debilitating knee reconstruction, a broken foot, losing her national contract, and navigating the emotional toll of stepping away for her mental health.

Sophie opens up about how growing up as a country kid in East Gippsland kept her grounded amid early international fame and tells us about that moment on the stage.

sydney sweeney's latest sports ad backlash and the female athletes fighting back

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/daff250f-7c15-4e35-a999-b4c5006444ac/transcript

What does it take to turn your darkest moments into a change for yourself and the wider community?

Chloe sits down with Brooke McIntosh, record-breaker, mental fitness advocate, and the fastest and youngest woman to run 14,200 kilometers around Australia. 

From the outside, Brooke had the picture-perfect life. high-earning FIFO work, holidays, and good times. But behind the scenes, she was drowning in a storm of trauma, PTSD, severe anxiety, and suicidal ideation.

 It took a near-fatal, high-speed T-bone truck crash to shatter the mask, waking up without a scratch on her body, but with a soul forever marked by a newfound purpose. 

Brooke shares her journey from sending a raw 2 a.m. cry-for-help text message to executing one of the most grueling physical feats on the planet. She averaged 60–111km every single day, pushed through 40°C heatwaves, survived flooded trails, and shredded through 16 pairs of shoes, all while raising over $280,000 for the Blue Tree Project.
