Desi Lydic sits down with soccer legend, activist, and entrepreneur Megan Rapinoe, who’s launching a new podcast called “Why Are You Like This?” The two chat about the World Cup red card scandal and life as a fan after retiring from professional soccer. Plus, Rapinoe talks about her work advocating for equal pay and LGBT rights, how her activism cost her a brand deal, and reframing the term “soccer mom.” #DailyShow #MeganRapinoe #Soccer #WorldCup #WomensSports

Incredibly impressive. I had never seen an interview of Megan. Superb! Doesn't hurt that she's the spitting image of Cleo (Huge) Abram.
Nothing shows how out of touch coastal lefties are quite as much as their continued adoration of Rapinoe, even as she continues to hold onto an EXTREME, crazy view on males in female sports.
USWNT!
this was enlightening..she is righteous!
Payton McNabb from Murphy, North Carolina, was knocked unconscious for 30 seconds after being hit in the head by a spiked ball from a trans player! Asked HER how she feels about biological men in Women's sports. And I wonder what Rapinoe would say if she had to play against a trans player? Easy to speak out when she never experienced it first hand!
Megan rapinoe is an anti- woman and against women's sports..
Si les US commencent à appeler football (le vrai de vrai) par son véritable nom (pas S*** ou le rugby pour bébé). Oublie ses shows de m** pendant la mi-temps. Peut-être qu'ils auraient plus de respect (Hommes ou Femmes)
Yes Meagan ! 🥳
She is delusional
Loved this
@4:57 Amen, sister!
I love the DS audience. Always so enthusiastic, supportive and engaging.
Rapinoe's the best!
Been a fan of this show since the beginning and my son turns 30 on the 24th. Just feels wild to me lol
Nosé porque ESPN se aprovecha de cualquier cosa que ella hace para atacarla. Megan tiene razón, están usando a los trans para decir que defienden a las mujeres en el deporte, pero cuándo hay hombres que las acosan nadie dice nada
Megan the Rap!!!! We need more of her!!!!
she's a very tough person both mentally and emotionally
3:20 “Equal Pay” = have to be subsidized by men because they don’t garner equal viewership. That’s very “equal” indeed😂
HUGE crush on Megan Rapinoe 😍
She’s just such a cool person.
Wishing her all the best in this next phase of her life ❤
My Queen.
I’ve heard of this bloke Rapinoe I he plays for the birds US football team? I don’t remember seeing him at the World Cup though? Was he serving a suspension?
Rapino is a freakin JOKE😂
Thank You TDS and Desi Lydic for supporting women’s rights!!
Buffoonery
I like the saying "the world is made for all of us*
Note to self: Make it fun. Thanks for that. Love both of you!
BEAUTIFUL BINGO
BOOM!
Yes! Retires, and everyone else get to the phone banks, walk, precincts, raise and/or give $. Just get to it!
ok Meagan, I am 80 and spent my life watching every game you played … world cup olympics , have your jersey still( tooooooo fat to wear it now )… gurl much gratitude for simply you being you.. you not only were brilliant in soccer but brilliant in life…. you truly have made a difference.. much respect ❤
Megan, you're great; but what's that dead thing on the jacket.🤣
Now, run for office already!
I wouldn't normally skip a Daily Show video, but this deluded, bitter individual doesn't deserve the air time. Absoute stooge.
🤞🧠🙏🏼
She made the 2023 team completely unlikable
Truly one of my hero’s! Amazing person all around !!
let's goooo
Love it. Yeah also just let the kids play. Unless your kid wants to get really competitive. I played in rec leagues, but never really felt like I wanted to make it a career.
give trump a red card for showing up.
How nice for Desi she has a SON who plays soccer who will never suffer the pain of getting beaten by physically superior biological males no matter how hard HE trains and sacrifices — unlike someone's daughter. No wonder she can celebrate trans athletes with Megan Rapinoe who also never had to compete against biological males. Hooray for trans athletes!
Women soccer is low level. Don't you ever celebrate it. These gals lose to 15 year old boys every time.
If USMNT played against USWNT it would be 30-0 with minimum effort from the men.
They are better at burning the American flag and refuse to sing the national anthem.
THANK YOU for having her on!!! Men seem to have forgotten that the US does win World Cups!!!
Two absolute Queens here! 🥰🔥🫡🫡
ladies soccer. what a world
I love this!!!❤❤❤
Retirement is such a weird transition.
This is a great interview! Desi understands what Megan is about, she was a baller but an advocate is what I love about her!!!! ❤❤
