espnW in conjunction with ESPN Audio debuts a new podcast, FREE COOKIES, in which espnW writer Kate Fagan, who often appears on SPORTSCENTER and a variety of ESPN studio programs, and best-selling author and yoga expert Kathryn Budig will co-host and interview guests from the worlds of sports and more. The announcement was made today at the espnW: Women + Sports, Chicago conference by espnW and ESPN The Magazine editor-in-chief Alison Overholt. In the premiere episode, the two speak to soccer star Abby Wambach.
Fagan and Budig - who are partners in a relationship - will discuss a wide range of topics, including sports, fitness, wellness and lifestyle with a guest each week. The goal is to present to listeners an unexpected treat - hearing a different side of even well-known personalities....the equivalent of "free cookies."
