Pivot · Friday, August 7, 2026
Hillary Clinton, joining Cara Swisher and Scott Galloway on Pivot, expressed her excitement about the growing popularity of women's sports, particularly basketball. She noted how the sport has broken into mainstream consciousness, contrasting it with her childhood experiences where opportunities for girls in sports were limited.
“What's the cost of being well?”
“I mean, honestly, the way that arena, you know, Berkeley, uh, in Brooklyn lights up with the Liberty and, of course, Ellie, the elephant who is naughty and fun.”
“It's gotten really political, too.”
“Yeah. Well, I think that kind of shows that it's succeeding. I mean, it's really broken through, uh, into people's consciousness because, I mean, I obviously can remember when there was nothing, maybe Roller Derby was like the closest to professional women's sports that I can remember.”
“It is joyful. I mean, I would encourage anybody.”
