Episode 153: Katie Barnes

Tuck chats with sports journalist Katie Barnes (they/them). Topics include:

  • Will "the science" ever be settled re: trans athletes?
  • How coordinated are all these anti-trans sports bills?
  • Why most teams should be co-ed (and why most elite sports shouldn't be)
  • What makes a bad interview question? (Asking for a friend lol)
  • Plus: Getting banned for your bones, interviewing trans kids, and a reminder that sports are hard!
