Today, we introduce Same But Different, an upcoming podcast series by Indo Sport's own Alanna Cunnane. Over the next three Saturdays, Alanna will explore the unique characteristics and distinct identity of women’s sport – not necessarily in comparison to men’s, but rather on its own terms. Across more than 30 interviews, Alanna has delved into the forces shaping this new era: from femininity and body image, to equipment design, commercial growth, leadership, coaching pathways, menstrual health, injury research, and whether long-standing rules still serve today’s athletes. You can find all components of the Same But Different series here: https://www.independent.ie/tag/same-but-different ?? On today's show, Alanna joins Joe to outline the core question driving the project: as women’s sport accelerates, can it embrace its differences, challenge inherited systems, and forge a future defined by equity as much as equality? This episode breaks down the major themes, the gender data gap researchers are racing to close, and the practical supports, from coaching structures to product design, that can actually make sport work better for women. We also explore the growing commercial landscape, and the innovative programmes and research centres shaping what comes next.
