“Olympics Preview” with Kara Nortman
Listen now
Description
Tobin and Christen are back with an Olympic sized episode! First, in the Daily Discussion, they discuss their experience playing in past Olympic games with the USWNT. Why doesn’t the team walk in the opening ceremony? Why don’t they play in the host city until the semis and finals? And what are the key differences between the Olympics and the World Cup? Then, they are joined by Angel City FC’s co-founder, Kara Nortman, for a fun and informative discussion on investing in women’s sports from someone who has lived it. How does one go from being a venture capitalist to becoming the co-founder of one of the NWSL’s most influential teams? And why did a tiny version of Tobin help inspire her decision to do so? Plus, community questions, a discussion on the future face of the USWNT, Bob Iger and Willow Bay’s 50 million dollars investment into Angel City FC, and more. Listen to weekly episodes every week.
