233. Speaking Up For Sportsmanship, Riley Gaines Learned From Her Dad!

233. Speaking Up For Sportsmanship, Riley Gaines Learned From Her Dad!

Today I’m speaking to Riley Gaines who’s speaking up for the injustices in sports! It’s not just about politics, it’s about fairness! She has athleticism in her blood and real role model parents! Her dad was even an NFL player!

You may recognize Riley’s name from the news, she’s recently made headlines for speaking out against injustices in the athletic world against women. This was sparked at a recent NCAA swimming competition where Riley tied for fifth place with a transgender women who is biologically male, Lia Thomas. Riley was told the trophy would be given to her opponent and she would wait for hers in the mail. What infuriated her was not the trophy or lack thereof but the fact that she as a woman at a woman’s competition was pushed aside and disregarded. Today we find out what issues she is facing and why she is speaking up. Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy!
