Dear John,

Have your Wednesdays become a drag since the first season of our podcast ended? Ours definitely have. Luckily, we have something for you (a little treat, if you will)... (insert drumroll)

NWLC’s podcast—Hearsay—is back for season two! To say that we are back and bigger than ever would be an understatement. Our season two premiere features the one, the only, BILLIE JEAN KING! Founder of the Women’s Tennis Association and winner of 39 Grand Slam titles and three World TeamTennis championships, Billie Jean King joined NWLC president and CEO Fatima Goss Graves and Hearsay co-host Hilary Woodward for a conversation about Battle of the Sexes, the rise of tennis in pop culture, and equal pay. Our first episode with Billie Jean King and Fatima Goss Graves is out today, listen to it wherever you get your podcasts!

Lark, Hilary, and I are back to discuss how historical pop culture moments are more than just flashes in the pan—they tie into our work at NWLC! This season we’ll get into how unions are crucial resources for women workers, how Black survivors are treated differently than white survivors, and why the fight for trans rights is more important than ever.

New episodes will be released every Wednesday through mid-August—subscribe to Hearsay on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts. Happy listening!

Talk to you soon,
