They know they are not the only ones. If you’ve ever felt like an outsider or ‘sidelined’ in sports talk, this podcast is for you. Why should sports only be for the guys? It’s for the girls too!

Brooke and Dani are joined by broadcaster and Chicago native Kylen Mills for a special live event inside the White Sox clubhouse at Guaranteed Rate Field. Kylen reflects on how her passion for sports broadcasting first took shape, her journey through local news, and the lessons she learned along the way. Brooke shares her unexpected story of auditioning for MTV’s TRL, while Dani talks about her experience as the Clippers’ in-arena host. Together, the group dives into the grind of building a career in sports media, the highs and lows of life behind the mic, and what it really takes to find balance and keep moving forward in an ever-evolving industry.
