Episode Description from the Publisher

This week on Women's Sports Weekly, we're breaking down the complicated (and slightly chaotic) PWHL expansion process as four new teams prepare to join the league. We explain the expansion phases, what they mean for roster building, and highlight notable moves involving Britta Curl and Alina Müller.We recap the USWNT's trip to Brazil, where a goal from Sophia Wilson, her first international goal since becoming a mom, wasn't enough to prevent a 2-1 loss in front of a passionate 30,000-person Brazilian crowd.Plus, teenage tennis sensation Mirra Andreeva captured her first Grand Slam title at the French Open, becoming the first player born after 2005 to win a major singles championship and ending the dream run of Maja Chwalińska.And because it's Pride Month, we're sharing the hilariously obvious signs from our childhoods and teenage years that, in hindsight, were giant flashing neon clues that we were queer. What were your signs? Let us know! We have a feeling we're not alone.If you rate Women’s Sports Weekly 5 stars, send a screenshot and you will receive a sticker!SUBSCRIBE TO WOMEN’S SPORTS WEEKLY YouTubeSpotifyApple Podcasts  FOLLOW WOMEN’S SPORTS WEEKLY ON SOCIALInstagramTikTokCONTACT WomensSportsWeeklyPod@gmail.com Women’s Sports Weekly is created, produced, edited, and hosted by Carolyn Bryan and Danielle Bryan.Music is by the talented ⁠Melvin Alexander Black.
