#583: Teen girls stand up against hockey culture

Earlier this year, players on a girls’ team had their privacy repeatedly violated when two members of a U-13 boys’ team entered their dressing room multiple times while the women were changing. A disciplinary panel later raised concerns not only about the incidents themselves, but how adults around the boys responded — including repeatedly characterizing the behaviour as an “unfortunate incident” rather than treating it as an opportunity for accountability and education. Inspired by Rick Westhead’s reporting, today co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz discuss what happened, the troubling “boys will be boys” response, and why changing hockey culture has to start long before players reach the pros. Show notes:Meet the Official Tempo Mascots: Dez and DotMembers of women’s hockey team speak out after players on boys’ team repeatedly enter dressing roomThe Truth Behind the 49ers' Electromagnetic Injury ConspiracyThe GIST:📰 Newsletter: Subscribe to The GIST✉️ Email: [email protected] 📷 Instagram: @thegistusa @ellenatthegist @stephanierotz
