More oral history than a typical podcast episode. Mankamyer was a real estate broker and youth soccer volunteer in Colorado who rose through the ranks of U.S. Soccer governance in the 1980s and was a key actor in promoting girls' youth soccer, the creation of a women's national team, and the addition of women's soccer as an Olympic sport in Atlanta in 1996. She also worked with and against Werner Fricker, and helped Alan Rothenberg get elected as president.
