Well, Title IX changed everything for women and female athletes.
Muffet McGrawGUEST
Uh, and you know, it started out because Birch Bayh wanted his wife to go to grad school at Virginia.
Muffet McGrawGUEST
It wasn't even about sports, and luckily they added that, that little phrase in there that, uh, that included sports.
Muffet McGrawGUEST
So we were able to, to really have the law behind us, so we could say, "No, you have to do this for the women's program because you're doing it for the men's program." And people were reluctant to really do that, and they, they, they really...
Mark ThompsonHOST
Exactly.
John RothmannGUEST

Mark ThompsonHOST
I wanna ask you about what's happening with Russia.
Mark ThompsonHOST
There was a, an odd and troubling statement from Vladimir Putin saying that he may use all weapons, all weapons is the quote, uh, all weapons at Russia's disposal against the West in the event of a, a conflict, uh, that might involve NATO and NATO involvement.
Angelo PizzoGUEST
I- I love politics, and I got a degree in political science.

And I had a job promise in Washington, D.C. working for a- a senator from Indiana named Birch Bayh.
Angelo PizzoGUEST
Uh, upon graduation, I was going to go to, um, graduate school in state affairs or international relations, uh, which was my specialty.

One larger attempt to take on these issues was Title IX, a revolutionary civil rights law that went into effect in the 1970s.
Andrea PitzerHOST
Title IX was groundbreaking legislation passed in 1972, primarily through the efforts of Indiana Senator Birch Bayh, working alongside US Representatives Patsy Mink and Edith Green.
Andrea PitzerHOST
Title IX is what made possible most of the girls' sports teams in US schools.
Andrea PitzerHOST
It proclaims, "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance." It is the basis under which demands to deal with sexual assault on college and university campuses have been brought.

JoyHOST
Uh, it was a foggy evening, and three miles from the runway the plane flew too low and hit some trees and crashed in an orchard.
