00:00What do you make of that, Howard?

00:02The idea that is it fair pay for the same amount of effort

00:08that they put in?

00:09Does this always need to be distilled down to profits

00:13or are we talking just good old-fashioned gender exploitation?

00:19Hmm.

00:22Howard, can you hear us?

00:26I think we may have an audio issue there with Howard.

00:29So let me put that to you, Pearl.

00:31What do you think?

00:32What about the fair pay for the effort that they put in?

00:38Women are very lucky in this society.

00:41We are so lucky to even have women's sports at all.

00:46I think we're incredibly lucky to be able to play sports

00:52even though we operate at a loss.

00:53And it's very frustrating when I hear women whining

00:56and crying about not getting paid enough.

00:58When I have family members that are in the military,

01:01I have family members that, you know, do the hard jobs in society,

01:04and you guys are crying because you're not getting paid enough

01:08to dribble a basketball.

01:09Nobody watches women's sports.

01:11No one does.

01:12I've played sports for 20 years.

01:14The reason that women, the reason people are tuning in for Caitlin Clark

01:21is because of the drama.

01:23So people kind of like to see the catfights on the court.

01:26Nobody's tuning into the WNBA to watch a bunch of missed layups.

01:30And I played basketball for 20 years, okay?

01:32I played overseas, you know, but I have to be honest,

01:36all the people complaining about equal pay,

01:38they were never out by games ever.
