The Art Arena™ Podcast, hosted by acclaimed broadcaster Cari Champion, is a celebration of stories that live at the crossroads of sport and culture, aiming to bridge creative, athletic, and diverse communities through candid conversations with talent who defy categorization.

This was the live recording of the first episode of The Art Arena™  Podcast, which took place at the Art Arena™ Summit at The Rockaway Hotel, where sports broadcaster and journalist Cari Champion explores the dynamic intersection of creativity and athleticism. In this conversation, Cari sits down with two-time World Champion, Olympic Gold Medalist, and activist Megan Rapinoe to unpack the power of creative expression on and off the field.

Together, they dive into what drives creativity—in sport, in life, and in culture—discussing how athletes channel passion, individuality, and purpose into projects off the pitch. From bold fashion statements to social impact initiatives, this episode highlights how the worlds of art and athletics are deeply connected through collaboration, identity, and inspiration.
