The Russia Situation

• Jessica updates us on Putin's secret rhythmic gymnastics family.

Women's Winter Cup

• Konnor McClain won the all-around title without full difficulty and with a bars error, because that's what winners do
• Gymnasts who impressed us like Nola Matthews, Addison Fatta, Zoe Miller, and Azaraya Ra-Akbar
• Plus, the February of it all, the disturbing lack of drunk gym moms, and our concerns about the new code and lack of direction in the women's program
• Stories from the meet: The girl who owns Sam Mikulak now, the $500 Uber, and a coach/judge confrontation

Men's Winter Cup

• Kensley and Documents are here to take us through the men's national team, the way it makes sense and the way it maybe sorta doesn't
• We discuss a crazy bonus system that didn't go as planned, why Yul has barely had a break in a whole year, and what needs to change about funding
• Plus, Asher Hong, Asher Hong, Asher Hong, and the gymnasts who need to be sent to a world cup like yesterday.
