Abby Wambach - “Wolfpack” and Demanding Gender Equality On and Off the Field | The Daily Show 

The US Womens Soccer Team is by far THE best team that has EVER come out of America. The mens team is a joke they didn't even make it to the FIFA World Cup! Its about time we give not just the women of US team some respect and equal rights but every women athlete.

Trevor NEEDS to have Rep. Katie Porter on AND Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on! PLEASE MAKE IT SO. 🥰🥰🥰

i'm a simple woman; I see a butch, i click

One of the many, many, many wonderful things abt Trevor: I believe every utterance of "Thank you for being on the show," partially bcz I am grateful he has shown me smth wonderful, important, worthy of attention, via his magnificent guests. Smtms, I don't watch interviews bcz I'm not willing to be made better.

She is amazing! What a legend!

Hey Trevor, its Inga Nkonzo from South Africa.. I want you to know that you are getting full support from me. I will always support you and you're one of the most smartest people I have ever known, including me. The saddest part is that I never got to watch any of your shows live but I am sure we'll meet one day

thanks for the interview! found it very interesting :)

She is great, my mother was treated as a second class person but I would choose her as my mentor and beacon all the way... bless you with all my heart

Love that the women's team made 3xs the amount of the men's team. Pay them more now!!!!

The BEST part of the USWNT is that their not just the best, their also showtime! They got it all, the big personalities, the razzel and dazzel on the field, the after goal dances and fan flare, their primetime entertainment! Money baby! And thats why they deserve to earn more, supply and demand, america seems to be absent allot in soccer but when the USWNT shows up EVERYONE in AMERICA is there! Mia Hamm! Abby Wambach! The lengendary 99ers! Morgan! Now this is entertainment!

The beautiful game is called Football not "Soccer" am a big football fan so it doesn't matter if u r a man or a woman the more a team accomplishes the more they should be paid keeping that in mind wtf did the Us Men team accomplished cuz am not an American but all over the world US WNT is known for being the best women National team so they should've been paid more not equally based on their achievements period

People are so beautiful when they love and live who they are, enabling them to share enlightenment, uplifting and I hope resonating with others!

This is why diversity and inclusion matter. Thank you Abby!

I hope Ivanka trump watch this. This is just too good.

Abby gives me chills. 💗

wambach is a true leader a real inspiration to everyone a true role model absolute legend respect 💯

Thank you soo much for sharing this helpful info!!!

Abby Wambach is so impressive. To have been taken advantage of for your entire career and still be this positive and focused on reform, it's an inspiration. I'd be mad at the world and showing it.

Abby Wambach is a badass. The USWNT is the best women's team in the world, and has been for a long time, largely thanks to the leadership and exceptional play she contributed. Now fucking pay the Women's team.

Hell yeah!

Go girl! Bravo

HONESTLY I have more faith in USWNT than USMNT they should make more....they win more...A LOT MORE!!!!!!!

Thank you Abby Wambach - Thank you so much...

she served that conference dude hard

Wow from hearing how eloquently and intelligently this woman speaks about an important problem, it's hard to believe that she hit her head against a ball too many times.

"When you write a joke, you don't know if people are going to laugh, although they are paid to laugh" - felt like a bomb was dropped

Now do one on "Wolf Pac" to take money out of politics

Amen Abby!!

Powerful!!

this is so backwards. if they bring in more money, they should get paid more

Its football!

Aye Abby Wambach (Wolfpack) Talk To Them aight lol 😂

Love you, Abby!

2015 was women's world cup. :D In Canada. :D

BeUtiful message

Awesome 🤙🏽

Something I've always wondered about, how much the media bombards us with adverts for sports featuring men, but you rarely see the same for women. The whole point of advertising is to generate interest, or demand, in something. I wonder what would happen if the same effort was given to women in sports. I wonder if soccer could be the sport that one day becomes women's "super bowl."

Gotta a point everyone works hard and I mean Everyone women included too this here shows not everybody is open minded people gotta be better especially in handling in sports.

Abby has turned out to be just as engaging and relevant off the field as on it. I love hearing what she has to say.

Amen...

In profile, she kinds looks like Macklemore.

yes yes yes yes

I don't know why more people aren't into watching women's sports - Women are hot!! Especially soccer players lmao

I am someone of numbers: Woman's National team has won more games, won more World Cups and other Competitions, Score more goals.... Compare this to the Men...

Every time they say soccer I shudder. Other than that, very interesting interview.

legend🔥

She wolf!

So, they bring up 2016. Can we assume the men made more in 2017 and 2018? They are not run by the same company. The book and the video doesn't address how the teams differ. Women want to play women's soccer. Men have to be paid a lot more just to lose. The men's team have to go all over the world to find players. Its basically supply and demand. If a company overpays women like the failing men, the team would go bankrupt. Is it fair, no. But its a reality no one wants to acknowledge. Now, when it comes to events like the Olympics or a sponsorship from the US, equal pay all the way.

the whole "bring money in" argument is not about male football in America vs female football in America, u have to see it in a worldwide competition, because that is what it is...a worldwide competition...and then male football is rolling in faaaar more money then female football, so in other countries male football is better paid for a reason(more success...) and if u want the MLS and the American national football team to be competitive in some future u HAVE TO adjust the money not to other sports in your country, or by comparing to female football in your country, but by comparing to other more successful country...like Britain,Spain,Germany.... and in these countries male soccer is WAY better paid as female soccer...AND male football brings more money than female football so im not saying, the pay-gab is ok in general(I would not make the payment depending to the amount of success or whatever but by the amount of work u put in), but i just can't see, how her argument is working

I've said it before. The Women's National soccer team doesn't deserve equal pay to the men. The women's team deserves a lot more.

Between Abby Wambach's *Wolfpark* and Clarissa Pinkola Estés' *Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype*, its nice to see woman calming the wolf as their own. _\\\

I don’t know why but I like her message a lot

I love you trevor

What a woman! 💪💪💪🧡💜

I don't know..."microaggression" does not seem like a good word to describe what's going on. Or a useful word period. It's like the word fights its own message. Someone has aggression towards me, but only micro ones. You know what I am saying? I feel like there needs to be a better word for this?

No one side of society will be its savior. Neither men nor women.

Futbol!! The beautiful game!! A ball kicked with feet, not a hand egg ball. FOOTBALL!!!

Your biggest fan Trevor Philip we love you........

I honestly thought that this was an old(er) shoot, from 2016 or so :-/

Please, could you stop calling it "Soccer". No one in the world calls football soccer. It's called "football", because you play it with your feet. I don't know why Americans call a game that you don't play with your feet "football". So, why? Because there is one position who does the punt with his foot?

Men should make more because they generate more income. What? They don't? Well, sauce for the goose.....

Wait they get paid to laugh??? 🤣🤣🤣 lemme be a part of that

I’m just now learning there is a woman pro soccer league and somehow they bring in more money than the male soccer league what??? Sounds like bs...

I'm all for equality, but the numbers she uses are misleading. Men's World Cup soccer brings in around 3.2 billion viewers. Women's soccer brings around 750-800 million. That's less than 1/3 the viewership, which means revenue is going to be significantly less. I'm not saying women's soccer isn't underpaid. I just think it's a better case to be made that they are underpaid than they should be paid the same as men's soccer that brings in significantly more money worldwide.

Billy Jean king did this for tennis and I hope she helps to move the needle!🕯🚗⛽ Trevor it's not only sports but women at the table including comedy? MicroAgression is consuming freedom everywhere!!😆 She Wolf!!😆😃

The wolf comparison does not make much sense at all... Although I agree on the discriminatory issue I think this is making the wrong argument ... Men are also payed different and rarely justified amounts of money in soccer and any sports even though they sacrifice same lifetime and often health ... The basic problem -thinking on a free market positive base here - would be to let them play in the same league ... And then let the wolves restore the biotope ... But obviously I think this is a stupid logic, as no man or woman has ever done anything without building on what others did for them and thus any big result is always the result of a group work of society and of basic human cooperation. Thus the really sensible thing would be to reclaim fair pay altogether for all who have participated in this process ... Stop separating sports by gender, only by levels and pay more to the participating lower leagues who help develop the sport and the players. Reduce the ticket prices and pay everyone who makes it a profession an amount he or she or... That allows them to live a good life. And with all those huge amounts of money on the table ... Don't tell me that would cost too much ... that is just a mere question of political will.

❤❤❤

I'm proud to say all those lawsuits failed

Nope that was mia hamm

I don't see why they can't and shouldn't pay women equal pay. They do a lot

its really that simple

I say they all get 500,000 both men and women in any sport and not a dime more. sports players do not contribute to the advancement of society,

The US Women's team is Dynasty and can't get a check. This is sick but this is America

Best solution will be to make women football association autonomous and free from men football, then they can earn as much as they want. Or maintain separate accounts for women and men and pay in percentage of respective revenue

It's been over a year since this video first came out. I wonder if either of these two now understands the basis for which the separate leagues are paid.

You want the same salary as guys? How about we don't pay any of you (all of you get nothing) because playing a sport is USELESS.

The U.S. women’s team should get far more money from sponsorships and endorsements in the U.S. (from companies like Nike, etc), than the U.S. men’s team, because they can push a product, to the barely tapped market worldwide, of women’s soccer. Girls in Yemen, and other places, can have heroes to look up to, and aspire to a goal. No question there. It would, however, be operating from a basis of false equivalence, to expect that the top women’s soccer player in the world, should make as much money _from tournament prize money_ as Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, or Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior. Worldwide, men’s soccer is far more competitive than women’s soccer. The U.S. men’s team has to face _those_ players on the field. The teams that the U.S. women’s team faces, are not as developed. Women’s athletics in the U.S. is far more advanced than women’s athletics in most other countries-if not all countries in the world. The U.S. has a lot of exceptional athletic talent, both male and female. If you want to attract the best U.S. _male_ athletic talent away from the NBA and other sports, the pay needs to be enticing. If you never want the U.S. men’s team to be able to contend with their Brazilian, Argentinian, and etc counterparts, keep their pay the same as the women’s team from small countries, who the U.S. Women’s team, beats handily.

GIRL POWER

When you get more revenue maybe you can get paid more. Like, if you want equality, get as many women to watch the sport as men? I know, dumb. Idk if you can understand that simple concept.

i believe in equal pay for equal work. however, this refers to workers within the same company. if I work for "A", my pay should be comparable to the men of "A", but I can't complain the men of " b" and "c" earn more - they are employed by a different company which might be wealthier and more profitable. I honestly don't believe the women's league draws as much money as men's sports. men's teams have been established longer and have larger followings, so pay will not be equal.

Love Abby! Love the USA women team , don’t even watch the bums men’s team , sorry, not trying to be “ hip” but I enjoy winning 🤘🙏💙❤️

L E G E N D

The USWNT is more successful because women’s football around the world is just terrible, you see women on teams from Mexico and Sweden and they can’t even kick the ball. Also, women’s national teams lose to u15 boys teams in one off games... think about that

Get Alex Morgan on the show

Wow, this is my first time learning about women playing soccer on high level.

I totally agree that the women’s team has been doing better in competition but if you look at the stats men’s soccer is actually bringing in more money than women’s soccer. Even though the women’s team is winning more games more people watch and respect men’s soccer, which means the men’s team is making more money and means the men get paid more. Not trying to offend anyone that’s just the facts and logic behind it.

⚽Football is the grandfather of American football basketball and baseball

She is in the entertainment business. I have been a studio musician for 48 years. When I started in the 70s I watched a guitarist much better than me. Nothing became of him because of his personality. There is no equality in the entertainment field. People either like you or don’t. Those that are liked, make more money. In every other field, women are discriminated against.

Maybe we can all.......be friendz....

👍😎

supply and demand...?

Yo

how is she getting hotter?!

First

They are paid to laugh? I NEED THIS JOB

2015 women won it all. Should have brought in more. This whole topic is flipping the facts. Women sports athletes get paid by their popularity just like the guys do. I'm sure Serena Williams feels underpaid for women. Why isn't this about getting women to support them in person. Rather than pushing agendas to increase their pay for the lack of women support in their sport. makes no sense. Equal pay for equal work in sports is... You bring the fans you get paid. equality that. F#&* women are just as dense as the dudes. Yet, they think they aren't.

It’s weird to think Abby Wambach’s sister was my 5th grade science teach..

when she said on fire I thought of Notre dame 😂😭😭

this isn't Brienn of Tar?

While I agree that they should be paid equally, athletes are paid way too much. I still bet she is making more playing a game than I ever will writing software.
