The Daily Show With Trevor Noah: Ears Edition

She discusses the larger underlying issues of gender, race, and class that impact the way people talk about women’s basketball as well as the WNBA’s journey to this moment of boosted popularity and what new fans of the league should know about the women who have spent the last 30 years building it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
