The Ladies Ball Podcast has added another significant guest to its roster with the arrival of Dana Hart, the President of the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame (WBHOF). Hart, who has served as the WBHOF’s leader for over two decades, joins the podcast for an in-depth conversation about her experiences, leadership, and the future of women’s basketball.
As President of the WBHOF for 21 years, Hart has played a key role in advancing the recognition of women’s basketball, overseeing the institution that preserves and celebrates the sport’s history. In her discussion with the podcast, she reflects on the responsibilities that come with this position and offers insights into the evolution of the game over the years. Her perspective is precious at a time when women’s sports continue to grow in visibility and influence.
Hart’s appearance marks a significant moment for The Ladies Ball Podcast, which has quickly gained a following for its conversations with figures involved in women’s basketball. Host Celeste Gehring, a former LSU player and current analyst for the University of the Pacific Women’s Basketball, says the goal of the podcast is to provide a platform for people who contribute to the game in meaningful ways.
“This is a great opportunity for us to hear from someone who has been deeply involved with the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame,” says Gehring. “We want to focus on the people who are making an impact, from players and coaches to those who are behind the scenes.”
The podcast, now in its seventh episode, continues to attract notable guests from across the basketball community, with future episodes expected to feature more individuals with important roles in the sport. The show highlights players at all levels — high school, college, and professional — as well as coaches and leaders who impact women’s basketball. Gehring’s background and connections have helped the show bring attention to both established and emerging voices in women’s basketball.
The Ladies Ball Podcast is dedicated to highlighting the many aspects of women’s basketball, with a focus on encouraging greater visibility for the sport. By discussing topics such as leadership, development, and the game’s future, the podcast hopes to create a broader conversation around women’s sports.
