David Berri joins all three hosts to unpack a subject that is perhaps as or more relevant than any other in the world of sport right now and also one we have not yet adequately explored on the show: the political economy of women’s sport. We discuss how value is produced and distributed in women’s sport, including the issue of fandom (the market of consumers) as well as questions of labor and exploitation. We also discuss his brand new book (coauthored with Nefertiti Walker who sadly was unable to join) Slaying the Trolls. David Berri is professor of economics at Southern Utah University where he studies the economics of sport. He is lead author of The Wages of Wins and Stumbling on Wins, sole author of Sports Economics and co-author with Nefertiti Walker of the brand new book Slaying the Trolls: Why the Trolls are Very, Very Wrong about Women and Sports. Nathan and Derek's forthcoming book The End of College Football: On the Human Cost of an All-American Game is now available for pre-order from UNC Press.
