Host Simon Spungin is joined by Noa Landau and Anshel Pfeffer to discuss Artem Dolgopyat’s historic Olympic gold medal in gymnastics – his country’s second ever and its first in one of the core Olympic disciplines.

PLUS: What’s behind the government’s rush to give citizens a third COVID vaccine shot?
