The Deal Sports Podcast Welcomes WNBA-Great Sue Bird

Sports podcasts are apparently a must-have show for any decently-sized podcast network these days. Current, former, and wannabe athletes all seem to have shows. One benefit of this sports podcast, lollapalooza, is that women’s sports are receiving much more coverage than ever before and with female sports podcasters.

On the latest episode of Bloomberg’s video podcast The Deal, hosted by Alex Rodriguez and Jason Kelly, the co-hosts sit down with former WNBA player and Seattle Storm co-owner Sue Bird to discuss her growing media empire and the explosion of women’s sports. Bird tells the hosts how she has built her investment portfolio, why her company’s viral t-shirt is about more than just a meme, and why timing is so important for her big decisions on and off the court.
