On January 5, 2018, [[Hope Solo]] was featured on the podcast.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/brantpinvidic/2018/02/01/3-keys-to-choosing-the-right-side-hustle/#4de331314201|title=3 Keys To Choosing The Right Side Hustle|last=Pinvidic|first=Brant|work=Forbes|access-date=2018-02-11|language=en}}</ref> The episode was aired prior to Solo announcing her candidacy for President of the [[United States Soccer Federation]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.iheart.com/podcast/966-Why-Im-Not-with-Bra-28797434/episode/why-im-not-raising-a-female-28808386/|title=Listen to the Why I'm Not - with Brant Pinvidic Episode - Why I'm Not Raising A Female Athlete - Why I'm Not - with Brant Pinvidic on iHeartRadio {{!}} iHeartRadio|website=iHeartRadio|language=en|access-date=2018-02-10}}</ref> During the episode, she called out sexism within the football world, specifically citing [[Sunil Gulati]], Dan Flynn and the [[United States Soccer Federation|USSF]] board of directors for threatening fewer games in retaliation for the team requesting higher pay. Solo also criticized the sexist imbalance of recognition for female athletes, notably between [[Alex Morgan]] and [[Carli Lloyd]], saying:<blockquote>“AndAnd people don’t even know [Carli’s] name. You know who they know? Alex Morgan. Alex Morgan hasn’t scored as many goals as Carli, as many impactful goals. Hasn’t ever really shown up the way Carli has in major, major, major tournaments. And you wonder - Carli has done everything for the game. She’s passionate, she’s a competitive athlete, she’s a leader, but people don’t give her that respect. And why? Because she doesn’t wear makeup on the field, because she doesn’t get false eyelashes, because she doesn’t have a boob job, because she doesn’t do photo shoots naked. Honestly, that’s what she has to balance with competing for endorsements with her teammates.” <ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.starsandstripesfc.com/2018/1/5/16855986/hope-solo-calls-out-sunil-gulati-dan-flynn-ussf|title=Hope Solo calls out Sunil Gulati and Dan Flynn|work=Stars and Stripes FC|access-date=2018-02-10}}</ref></blockquote>
