Glennon Doyle and Audacy
About this episode

Three soccer legends and Glennon go on an epic double date! Our beloved Pod Squader, Christen Press, is back with Tobin Heath to share their revolutionary reimagining of what life and love look like when you protect the sacred – and the resistance in doing things quietly and privately, especially within the queer community.


  • How to be free and independent inside a relationship – and Tobin’s seven-year contract idea; 


  • Christen and Tobin describe each other as soccer players and as people outside of sport – and how they handle conflict; and


  • Why they say, “Don’t look at us, look at our work” – and their current mission to build a sports media house for women. 


For our episode with Christen, check out 132. Christen Press: How to Get Your Bliss Back
