This week Women's Running Stories is taking a break and bringing you Unexpected Curves. This is a terrific new podcast hosted and created by Olympian and professional runner Marielle Hall. Unexpected Curves is a topic-driven show that dives into women's sports in ways that, true to the show's name, are unexpected. In the most interesting ways. Tune in to Unexpected Curves each week, where Hall interviews athletes and experts to explore women's sports from new angles. To quote the show description: A unique listening experience for the next generation of sports fans to interact with the stories about the people, and the plays that make an industry. In each episode we will get into the culture of women’s sports. Breaking down what’s good, what’s bad, and what’s weird. We’ll hear from athletes and experts paving the way for the future, and sometimes we will go back in time to see how we got here in the first place. This is the sports show where we give the girls some support. In the episode highlighted here, Hall talks with Professor Amira Rose Davis about the high participation of Black American girls in track and field. They explore why this trend exists ,and how the cultural tradition of hand games shapes the sport we watch today. Rose Davis is also the co-host of the exceptional feminist podcast Burn It All Down, which is currently on hiatus.
