The GIST of It Podcast

The GIST of It is a twice-weekly podcast on what’s going on in the sports world. Hosts Ellen Hyslop and Stephanie Rotz discuss current sports topics and how they intersect with pop culture and social issues, covering everything from major league season previews to calling out the sexist BS we see in sports daily.

On today’s episode of The GIST of It, co-hosts Ellen and Steph break down F1’s recent crackdown on their jewelry ban and seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton’s response, with a broader discussion about how such policies often target BIPOC athletes specifically. Talk about a fashion faux pas.
