Haley and Jordan are joined by William Butler, a Russian legal specialist and Professor of Law at Penn State Dickinson Law, to debrief what we know about Brittney Griner’s detainment in Russia. Then the Spinsters are joined by Dr. Courtney Cox, an assistant professor in the Indigenous, Race, and Ethnic Studies department at Oregon, about her experience covering WNBA players overseas, and what Griner’s situation says about larger themes in the women's game.
Haley references a previous Spinsters episode by Natalie Weiner titled "Overseas, Overworked, And Over It," which can be found here.
