Originating in France in 1924, the Winter Olympic Games offer a chillier, more slippery, and significantly more clothed alternative to the iconic Summer Olympic Games. With the 2026 Winter Olympic Games set to take place in Milano-Cortina, Italy, February 6-22, the Great Pop Culture Debate wanted to take the ski lift and take in the whole competition as we attempt to name the Best Winter Olympic Sporting Event. 

Events discussed: figure skating, ski mountaineering, snowboarding, alpine skiing, ski jumping, cross-country skiing, skeleton, ice hockey, curling, biathlon, freestyle skiing, speed skating, luge, Nordic combined, short-track speed skating, bobsled/bobsleigh

Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Joelle Boedecker, Kara Austin, and Trey Radu-Blackburn as they discuss and debate all 16 of the competitive events taking place at the 2026 Olympic Games.
