Good Sport NYC

Solo episode! I covered two hot-off-the-press news items from this week: 1) Gotham FC is officially coming to NYC and moving the team to Etihad Park in Queens, NYCFC's new $780M stadium. 2) The Women’s Professional Baseball League revealed team names and logos ahead of opening day on August 1st. Our team is the NY Heights, in honor of civil rights leader Dorothy Height. On the big Gotham move, we...

This week I talked with sports journalist Frankie de la Cretaz, who writes at the intersection of sports and gender through their newsletter Out of Your League . They’re also the author of Hail Mary: The Rise and Fall of the National Women's Football League . When it comes to what happens in women’s sports around and on top of actual gameplay, Frankie is prolific. They’re also deft at threading th...

Ish Islam, the creative behind Game Griot, isn’t the only man who’s found his sport’s home in women’s basketball. But I’d personally take the odds that he’s one of the most dedicated. The Brooklyn native built Game Griot as a creative broadcasting outlet for the world of women’s hoops. He joined me on the podcast to talk: * What 30 years of the WNBA mean for the game * Standout 2026 rookies * Who’...

“Honestly, I’m trying to fulfill what I wanted when I was a kid.” That’s what artist Sophia Mitropoulos had to say when I asked what inspired her to create Snatch , a queer-first women’s sports magazine. There’s a rebelliousness to building an indie publication from scratch, especially when that publication is fiercely gay and unapologetically dedicated to women’s sports. Sophia was an artist who...

Like many D1 athletes, Tori Keghlian felt lost after leaving her college volleyball program. After spending years dedicated to her sport, it was time to find out who she was outside of it. After going on her own journey to find purpose beyond her identity as an athlete, she found her way back to volleyball and her love for the sport. That’s why Tori founded Spykes—NYC’s sapphic volleyball communit...

Writer and data enthusiast Anumita Jain of The Bat Signal joined me this week for a deep dive on Gotham FC, our NWSL soccer team that’s brought home two Championship trophies in the last three years. We reviewed our roster, covering Gotham’s veterans like Rose Lavelle, Tierna Davidson, Anne-Katrin Berger, Emily Sonnett, Esther González, and Midge Purce, as well as our rising stars like Jaedyn Shaw...

I bravely went solo on this week’s podcast episode. What’s more empowering than speaking into a microphone alone in your apartment? Speaking about women’s sports into a microphone alone in your apartment, of course! Here’s what I covered: Liberty’s 3-1 hot start and Satou Sabally FINALLY back on the court, Gotham’s potential move from Jersey to Queens, and Mayor Mamdani’s fight to keep soccer acce...

New York City women’s sports fans are some of the best fed in the country: We have eight professional women’s teams we get to support. But that’s new! Six of our eight teams were founded within the last three years. You know what that means: Get in early. It’s the perfect time to become a fan of our lesser-known teams as they establish themselves and their fan bases. All while keeping the energy g...
