About this episode
The episode discusses Claudia Goldin's impact on WNBA salaries, Maryland's new protections for transgender students, and reality TV recommendations.
Bryan's back in NYC and had a celebrity run-in at one of his favorite restaurants. Erin is somehow seeing all the Summer House news despite never having watched a second of the show, and Bryan tries to convince her to watch Real Housewives of Rhode Island. Erin discusses Nobel Prize-winning economist Claudia Goldin and how she helped the WNBA negotiate higher salaries by using data comparing the disparity between their male counterparts. Bryan covers Maryland's HB 649 passing which expands protections for transgender students across the states and gives them the right to sue schools for discrimination.
