Keep the Flame Alive

Para Powerlifter Bobby Body's Paris 2024 Paralympics


Listen Later

We catch up with our para powerlifter Bobby Body and talk with him about his experience at Paris 2024, including:

  • What it was like to compete on the final day of the Games
  • Dealing with no-lifts that resulted in a 4th place finish
  • What it's like to get Team USA kit when you've got a powerlifter's body--did Bobby hulk out of his ceremonies uniforms?

We also have news from past and upcoming Games, including a Paris 2024 concert and Milan-Cortina 2026 ticket and torch relay news. The Slidingnovela has another installment, and we have a major announcement about the show's future.

Plus, the International Olympic Committee has picked a year for the first eSports Games (not this year), and we have a lot of news from Team Keep the Flame Alive (TKFLASTAN).

Thanks so much for listening, and until next time, keep the flame alive!
