Nobody Asked Us with Des & Kara

2.28. The Elephant and Humble Pie, Your Final Olympics Recap


Listen Later

The mood was spicy for this one, fueled by Olipop and post-Olympics sleep deprivation and jetlag! The result is yet another banger episode from Des and Kara.

This one starts with some fun behind-the-scenes intel on the Olympic Village and why athletes might choose to stay outside of it. 

Then, they very thoroughly address THE elephant in the room, giving their perspectives on the criticism Fiona O'Keeffe has received for not dropping from the marathon. You might have your opinion on this, but I promise you that Des and Kara will teach you a side of this story that you didn't know. It is a lot more complicated than the social media "pundits" might think.

After that, they turn to recaps of the M800, W1500, M5000, and both marathons to wrap up their coverage of the Paris Olympics, including some humble pie served very warm.

We are sad it's over, but so very happy that it happened. What an epic end to these Games!
