Orlando Pride are champions, and talking NWSL growth with Melissa Etheridge and Lo LaBonta
Description
On a very special final podcast of the NWSL season, Tamerra Griffin and Meg Linehan react to the Orlando Pride winning the 2024 Championship live from CPKC Stadium in Kansas City.
How did Barbra Banda deliver the match's championship-winning moment? Should the referee have intervened more? Were the defeated Washington Spirit unlucky not to find a goal in the second half? Was Trinity Rodman fit enough to go 90 minutes? What does this trophy mean to the legendary Marta?
PLUS: Ahead of the final at CPKC Stadium, Tamerra and Meg also sat down with GRAMMY award-winner and queer icon Melissa Etheridge, as well as KC Current midfielder Lo Labonta, to talk about the growth of the NWSL this year and how the magnificent final encapsulated that.
