Episode 94: FINA's Transgender Decision

Published 4 years, 4 months ago
Description

Last week, FINA, the governing body for international swimming, ruled that transgender women who underwent male puberty are barred from competing in elite swimming competitions. This ruling will apply to both the world championships and the Olympics. On today's podcast, we discuss this story (2:19), the backlash to the decision, and the precedent this may set for other sports.

Following the big story, John and Chad recap the final episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi (19:00). They discuss what was successful about both the episode and the show, as well as where it fell short and why the fan reaction was so polarized.
