SUMMARY:Prepared to Drown: June 19 - Live Podcast Recording
DESCRIPTION:Podcast Episode: “Flooding the Rink” \nHeated Rivalry\, a queer hockey story\, is breaking through as a cultural phenomenon far beyond simple popularity metrics. Why here? Why now? And what does it reveal about inclusion and diversity in sport culture? For Pride month\, we head into the (metaphorical) locker room to explore what this moment says about belonging\, visibility\, and what still needs to change on the ice and beyond. Is sport culture starting to shift? Is legislation keeping us stuck in the minor leagues? And what might that mean for other institutions still struggling to lace up their skates? Podcast features: Rev. Bill Weaver\, Ricardo De Menezes with special guests Linda Hunter\, Laura Leyshon and Justin Connell
