EP 279: Sirius XM Sports Reporter Michelle Beadle

Michelle Beadle has done it all in the world of sports reporting — from bull riding to basketball and everything in between. She not only survived but thrived in a male dominated arena. She's co-hosted ESPN's SportsNation, SportsCenter, Get Up and NBA Countdown. You can listen to her talk sports on Sirius XM's "Beadle & Decker" every day from 12-3pm ET.

We discuss her incredible career, the challenges facing female sports reporters, the popularity of the WNBA, what it will take to keep the momentum of women's sports moving forward, and of course, the Beadle & Foley Alt-Cast. Plus, the feel good moment of the week!
