How to Deal

[@evelyndieppa2894]

I love what Sue said about knowing one industry very well so you can easily spot misinformation, then applying that thinking to other areas, and being skeptical about believing headlines.

[@AshleyGao]

You guys should have a segment on East Coast v West Coast comparisons/differences (like Oregon vs OregAHn) or other things you discovered after living on both coasts. I think that could also explain the flour vs corn tortilla debate (I'm guessing more west coast people like corn, east coast flour).

[@dianeschattenberg2726]

Thank you for addressing this. Some of us who've been around for a while - and remember some of the horrifying actions of the past (Matthew Shepard...) - know there are a lot of us who aren't going back. DOMA is dead and gone. Even if there were some bizarre way that same sex marriage (which is a LEGAL union...) were banned, there are legal ways that same sex couples can and have protect(ed) themselves. Heck - if we could do that in Texas in the 1990's, we can do it now. 🙂 Don't really want to have to fight those battles again, but whatever. Here is what I find very encouraging - the folks who supported Kamila aren't storming the capital. We are looking inward and saying "what do we need to do to WIN?" We aren't saying "oh, it's rigged". Amazing how all of the sudden elections are fair, ya know? For all our trans friends? Well - they haven't lost our support. We're still there. Mass deportations? Pft. We (the US) can't afford it. But I digress... let's move along and get back to sports, eh? 😘

You guys should get legally married before he takes office

[@someguy2972]

"married" hahahaha

[@anjinmiura6708]

In most marriages, it is the woman who initiates divorce. Stats show two women being married does not last very long and two men being married last longer than straight marriages. So the more women in a marriage, the shorter it lasts and the less women the longer the marriage. It makes sense when you recognized that it is women who most often initiate divorce.

[@mg-Q17]

No wonder you're so scared of Trump. You've been told complete lies about his positions on marriage, abortion, and most other things. We call that being brainwashed

[@MrVara411]

Such utter silliness to say that. Just stop.

Marta is retiring from club?! Did I miss an announcement somewhere?

[@megan3267]

Sue surely makes it sound like that but Marta only retired from international soccer this year. She was quoted back in August saying she wanted to play at least two more years at the club level. Unless they have the inside scoop…

[@marbenais]

I have learned there is a big divide between east and west coast university name/nickname understandings - y'all over there didn't know USC was South Carolina and I didn't know that "Cal" meant just Berkeley instead of the whole University of California system.

[@letitplayout3652]

Merritt's favorite Tootsie Pop is the chocolate one?! That's insane. Is her next favorite orange? "Super Teams" 👎👎👎 (PS there is some riffraff in these comments 🤨)

[@irisjudea4971]

Learn from the loss is the attitude. In the background though we know Trump's win is on any given day catastrophic. How we organize going forward is vital. Directing our learnings in women's sport into politics is paramount for democracy now; social capital.

[@SuzetteCallejo]

Just wanted to thank you both for this podcast. Your perspectives on sport, life and so much more are greatly appreciated. You’re both so knowledgeable and caring. I’m definitely a “Megan” on reaction to the election. I started to go down the rabbit hole and proceeded to get super mad and depressed. So avoiding. However, I’m with Sue, just but not right away. Each day learning more. The womens sports talk always lifts my spirits. My fave is the purple tootsie pop 😂.

[@MrVara411]

Yep, thanks in part to her, Trump ran away with it.

[@PattyJoT]

Thanks for your time and words. It means a lot and you inspire me.

[@katiekruse7789]

You are the best, I’m so thankful for this show, thank you for the breakdown on all the NWSL payoff teams, so excited to see who wins!

[@LivinNCin]

I needed this episode. Thank you ♥️ Also, totally unrelated but would love if you could one day have Audi Crooks on the podcast. Became a big fan of hers during March Madness.

[@captainobvious-CH]

Yes, please, say in your bubble - never listen to any other points of view and keep wondering why the majority disagrees with you. Keep thinking that they are "stupid" and "racist"... 🤦‍♂

[@jdd318]

I would like to challenge you to talk to conservatives and have an honest and open discussion. Additionally, I’m failing to remember her name but Jillian Michaels has someone on her pod and they discussed why people have drifted away from the left. It was a real good pod and opened my eyes.

[@kenth151]

I will help you our as a conservative. The crazy progressives have totally taking over the Democratic party and driven out the normal moderates.

[@elissacummings9108]

It’s gonna be okay.

[@Chapat79]

Guys thank you for helping Trump get re-elected

[@RealtyWebDesigners]

Amen. Their insanity played a big part!

[@TF-vb9us]

Yep, the incels and chomos won 😂

[@anjinmiura6708]

Their insanity is the creation of the media which claimed to support their interests. They are victims. Don't blame the victim. We're talking about people who are minorities (as in not mainstream) who are always guarding themselves because they feel strongly that they are not like most people. The media will take advantage of this (them!) and amplify their fears beyond reality. This is why when a thing like this election, which they thought they would win, didn't turn out that way. And now they think a flood of horrors are coming their way. WE know it's not going to go that way. They don't know that and are told otherwise. Be kind. I'm a military veteran and I have come to understand that MOST people are "just people" and it is POLITICAL people who are the biggest problem. And if the political people had to fight wars, there would be no wars. It's government and media that drive things at the expense of all of the regular people everywhere. And these ladies are WRONG. They are not minorities... they are regular people too and we all need to accept that and respect that.

[@makestank4800]

You can gloat to your hearts content about that person winning the election without the approval of a majority of the population. But mark my words friend, you will reap what you sow in four years or less and suffer with the rest of us for your in your feeling's stupidity. Because if you think Trump gives a shit about you and your click. You're going to be in for a shock when the mask comes off. You and your click aren't rich, and you don't have any power and that's who Trump really cares about and yes himself. That's right hater 🤡As Trump has said not once but twice at two of his crazy rallies "I don't need you I need your vote" I literally heard him say that. And mindless automatons like yourself at that rally just stood behind him and in front of him with blank expressions crazy! Sue and Meg are good people that truly care about others like marginalized people in this country while your ilk only cares about hate to the point of voting against your own interest. Sue and Meg hopefully will be okay they're rich, but I don't know about the majority of us but play stupid games win stupid prizes.

[@jacobdavis3876]

@@RealtyWebDesigners Not insanity. Just a bubble they live in. You think they know about Kamala locking up black mothers for their kids' truancy? Or keeping a man on death row even after evidence had exonerated him or how she argued for prison slave labor? I hope they didn't know about that, considering what they preach. I get people being comfortable and wanting to live in a happy no-nuance bubble. I would prefer to think of them as ignorant rather than maliciously deceptive or corrupt. That's just because I'm a Seattle sports fan.

[@OuchMthrFkr]

Given the current global and domestic challenges, the U.S. must act unilaterally to secure its sovereign interests, economic future, and national identity. The risks of inaction are severe: continued resource strain, cultural disintegration, economic decline, and political fracturing... Under the Trump Administration, the U.S. currently has the power and resources to secure its borders, reform its immigration laws, and disengage from global agreements that undermine its interests. However, if it chooses to do nothing, the short-term convenience of avoiding conflict will likely be far outweighed by the long-term consequences of surrendering national control and compromising its future. Wouldn't we all love for The United States to be that all powerful life boat during the sinking of The Titanic that saves absolutely everyone from the icy waters of despair so WE MUST MAKE IT HAPPEN AT ALL COSTS??!!! However, common sense (if any of us are using it) dictates that this "U.S.A. Mercy Boat" will ultimately sink if it continually takes on more people as if its capacity to do so is endless. There is definitely a limit and We The People have reached it. It's well pass time for other countries (life boats) to do what they can to pick up many of these lost souls. The very idea that America is THE ONLY ANSWER to a bright future for the people of this world is intrinsically paternalistic, imperialistic, and racist. In other words, the failure of The Trump Administration to act is a far greater risk than its making bold, unilateral decisions that safeguard the nation's sovereignty, economic security, and cultural integrity. Sad but true!

Been waiting on this.

I have been waiting on this too... waiting for it to get good. So far just drivel and banality.

[@dylanmaxey2531]

There are over 14 states were I have to consider where I can pee without being arrested vs triggering and freaking out women in a bathroom. My VA PTSD group is half MAGAts and even though I have been member for over 5 years they could care less. So I guess they want me to pee and trigger women by following the law, or I break the law by taking my bearded self into a men's room or pee on the floor. Sadly I cannot visit Tenn and Beale street for 4.5 years.

[@MIKESFLYT]

Hi Sue. We were at UConn at the same time. I graduated a couple of years ahead of you. Congratulations on all your success by the way….a very impressive career. My partner and I of over 20 years are both Trump supporters. I truly believe that if you met Trump in person and had a chance to discuss your concerns that you would have a completely different impression of him. There are many points I would like to make based on some of the comments made in this video, but I will hold off. One correction that I feel should have been made - not having looked at the other comments - Obama was voted into office in 2004 with 66% of the White vote. One question on Women’s sports. Trump will end men competing in women’s sports. Voting democrat would see more men playing women sports. Aren’t we watching all that was gained from title 9 being lost? What if men were chosen over the both of you in your respective sports, because they were better and stronger? Wouldn’t that have negatively impacted both of your lives? Would this channel exist?

[@lolah42]

So many comments against lesbians, Democrats. Why even watch when you know that you don’t believe, can’t tolerate the subject of the podcast? That says so much about your character, and probably your true closeted, belief system. You’re either, simply someone who likes to complain, bully, and troll, or you have a curiosity about it all, and just don’t know how to express it.

[@dylanmaxey2531]

Wonder how many are bot generated?

[@SEOBeach]

nothing like talking to your liberal friends on your podcast and having no idea why you lost, good job, keep feeling those big emotions with no objective to understand the truth, keep living in that glass house.

[@vmsilverknight4661]

I think this election brought out more people to vote and take part

[@TF-vb9us]

Turnout was down in 2024 compared to 2020

[@Ashlyn-p1r]

Trump received 1M less votes than in 2020, and Harris received several million less than Biden in 2020. This was not a "good turnout."

[@lole2267]

When Turn out is lower usually meant it is bad for Democrats, third party got some more votes away from Harris than from Trump! Probably the new people that voted were voting Trump while the Gen Z anti-genocide abstinent! The turn out is low also meant the economy was not that bad to some people… so don’t discount the misinformation about Transgender issues aka men in women sports, kids getting sex change operations easily and frequently(there are low information folks bought into the misinformation and immigrants are keeping their wages down and price high talk)! There are some truths in these misinformation but not to the extent of some of the Trump voters passionately and alarmingly telling each other! I don’t want men in women sports either, may be some kind of handicapped system needed! I meant trans youth participation should be its own issue, you guys need to do a better job making these nuisance issues to the wider public…

That kneeling stuff happened before Biden "won," to be fair, although his victory looks more suspect after Kamala's severe underperformance, with 7 Million less votes. Still, I think the kneeling stuff is overrated. If athletes want to protest before the start of the actual game, I say let them. They have free speech and aren't hurting anybody.

Great Episode! You 2 are the best! Also wanted to give a shout out to you Sue. Saw your interview on The Deal with Alex Rodriguez and Jason Kelly and loved it when you said with Caitlin's logo 3's The W finally had "the anecdote to dunking." WOW! What a great way to describe why everyone watches myself included. On a side note, Magic Johnson and Steph Curry are my 2 favorite basketball players because Magic's passing and Steph's 3-point shots are spectacular! Ironically, Caitlin passes like Magic and shoots like Steph and now she is my 3rd favorite player to watch. 🪣💦🔥
