In Episode 2, The Elle Bee Show dives into the world of sports to examine the stark double standards that shape how athletes are perceived, praised, and criticized. We look at high-profile figures like Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark, whose performances and personalities have sparked contrasting reactions, shedding light on the biases in how we view Black and white athletes. The episode also revisits the journeys of Venus and Serena Williams, pioneers who faced intense scrutiny on and off the court, and compares their experiences to Michael Phelps, highlighting how race and gender impact the labels athletes receive.

From expressions of confidence labeled as "too cocky" to issues of physical appearance and style, this episode breaks down how deeply rooted biases continue to skew our perspectives in sports. Tune in as we unpack these double standards and explore the social implications for athletes of all backgrounds.
