The WNBA’s continued travel woes & U.S. Senate probes golf merger

Hello, hola, salut!

Co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz are digging into two huge stories on today’s episode of The GIST of It.

The news has reignited calls for charter flights in the league in light of security concerns.

Then after the break, El and Steph head to the links, where the U.S. Senate is teeing off on the recently announced bombshell PGA Tour and LIV Golf merger. Given the many business and international relations implications, the Senate launched an investigation yesterday, and our hosts are breaking down all the deets.
