Best Of 2025: Hamstrung by Paternal Systems with the WNBA & NWSL Players Associations  
Podcast: Good Game with Sarah Spain
Published On: Mon Dec 29 2025
Description: This week, we're revisiting some of our favorite interviews of 2025, including this conversation with Erin Drake of the WNBA Players Association, and Meghann Burke and Tori Huster of the NWSL Players Association. The trio joined Sarah in late October to discuss what collective bargaining negotiations look like behind the scenes, what the two PAs have learned from each other, and how systems need to change in order for investment in women's sports to make it to the players that built the leagues.  Read the Guardian article about the NWSLPA and WNBPA collab here Follow the WNBPA here Leave us a voicemail at 872-204-5070 or send us a note at goodgame@wondermedianetwork.com  Follow Sarah on social!
