This week, we ask the big questions: Is Ben Shephard actually AI? Are Ed Leigh’s goggles getting bigger every year? And do we need to sell a kidney to afford tickets to the 2026 Olympics?


🎧 On The Show:
  • Ski Sunday Review: We give it "mid-thumbs." Ed is celebrating 20 years, but we’re mostly focused on whether his Dragon goggles are actually fish bowls.
  • The "Mother-Hecking" Olympics: Listener Katie writes in about living the Van Life just to afford the €200 Big Air tickets. (Sorry, Tim’s driveway is full).
  • Tattoo Watch: Listener Liam claims he’ll get The Aprés logo tattooed on his bum. We are officially waiting for proof.
  • LAAX Open: Jenny is prepping (barely) for commentary duty. Send in your questions for the athletes!
    📍 Notes & Links:
    • Milan Cortina 2026: Tickets are live and expensive. Start saving.
    • Ed Leigh on Climate Change: Check out Ed's piece on BBC Sport regarding snow conditions.
    • Get in Touch: Got a tattoo of our faces? Email us at [email protected] or find us on Insta @theaprespod.
