🎙️ Top Flight Unfiltered

In this episode, we’re diving into something that’s got the whole sports world talking — the Enhanced Games, a new event headed to Las Vegas where athletes can openly use performance-enhancing drugs. Yep, you read that right.

We break down what this means for the future of sports, from the ethics and athlete safety - Is this the evolution of athletics, or are we crossing a line?

We also touch on:

• Ongoing doping issues in track and field
• The buzz (and confusion) around the new Grand Slam format and how it stacks up against traditional events like the Diamond League. 
• And how all of this could reshape how fans connect with the sport

No filters, just real talk. Tune in and join the conversation.
