Paris 2024 (We Didn't Make The Team)

Listen Later

Listen along as Jyl and Kathy visit the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Well, not visit so much as recap. As total sports nerds, there was no way to avoid talking about the best games ever. Yes, we know…you were expecting something else this month. We'll do that next month instead.

 

Things we loved about the Olympics?

  • The Olympic Creed is alive and well! "The important thing in life is not the triumph, but the fight; the essential thing is not to have won, but to have fought well."
  • So. Much. Kindness. Why was this Olympics bursting with sportsmanship? Jyl has some thoughts…
  • Endless Characters: Snoop Dog, Flava Flav, Martha Stewart…
  • Endless Athletes that were also characters: Ilona Mayer, That Pommel Horse Guy, etc
  • Mental Health? Senior Competitors? A Pregnant Fencer? Holy hell. Human Resources Departments should take note of just what people can achieve…challenges be damned.
  • The⁠ Paralympics⁠!!! The Olympics continue with the Paralympics starting August 28th! That's right, there's more!
