At the Sydney 2000 Paralympics, Intellectually Disabled Basketball was included for the first time. Spain easily won the gold medal, but not all was what it seemed... This is the story of a scandal so big it changed the Paralympics forever.
This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 05:43 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
