CBS Sports Network’s All-Female “We Need to Talk” Premieres Tonight

CBS Sports Network’s much-ballyhooed all-female talk show premieres tonight at 10 p.m. ET. Among the regular cast on the show will be Allie LaForce, Amy Trask, Dana Jacobsen, Lesley Visser, Tracy Wolfson, Andrea Kremer, Laila Ali, Lisa Leslie, Swin Cash and Katrina Adams.

In addition to having an all-female cast, We Need to Talk will have an all-female production crew. It also has the backing of CBS Sports.

So tonight is a big night with women having the opportunity to take a show and make it their own.

Here’s the announcement.
