New episode: Athletes and Allies and Sports, Oh My!
Fall is upon us, and that means a bunch of sports seasons are starting soon! Very often, we hear about “locker room talk” or “athlete culture” and we wanted to talk to people who are from/have interacted with the athletic world extensively. In this episode, we talk to one former collegiate athlete who now works for a professional athletic organization, and an advocate who has worked extensively with male athletes at the high school, college, and professional levels. As always, we also have our “Let’s Talk Sex!”, featuring Corey. If you want to be featured on “Let’s Talk Sex!” please email Jeenie at jyoon@svfreenyc.org.
