But I especially appreciate knowing about the hot security squads and tight pants, not even joking. Wish I would’ve listened from day 1. No one else I know to chat about the Olympics, even sports I don’t care about but still get caught up in. Thanks, Ava! Will miss the Olympics and this pod.
As an avid sport fan, I’m a bit disappointed in the overall coverage. In depth stories seemed to only be rewarded to the underwhelming swimmers of these games and not other big moments like on the track, gymnastics, volleyball, water polo and more. The other events seem to only get an overall recap sentence. Please actually feature the stories of your titles in depth instead of giving a by line and turning back to the pool.
Fun and smart - making me engage with the Games and look forward to what Ava and team bring every day. I listen after my regular news pods in the morning
Every two years I feel like I have a patched together view of the Olympics for whatever I happened to watch or read about. I am so excited for a consistent storyline through this podcast and the opportunity to get the, on the ground, inside scoop from human interest stories to the architecture and planning of the Olympics.
