  • Love this podcast!

    As a fellow Olympic fan, I love this podcast! Feels like im just sitting around chatting about the Games with fellow fans! It's great to have the interviews with athlets from both Australia and Canada in both summer and winter sports. There really isn't alot of Olympic specific podcasts so this is truly a gem! I can listen to others talk about the Olympics year round and it's a great addiiton to my podcast collection! Keep up the good work guys!

Epiosde 531 - Chris Fogt & Azaria Hill Interview
Q: What would it mean to you though, Azaria, to get that official confirmation that you will be an Olympian?
That would be huge. I want to medal. I want to be on the podium. It's not just about making the team for me; it's about succeeding and achieving my dreams.
Epiosde 531 - Chris Fogt & Azaria Hill Interview
Q: Can you both imagine if maybe you had given up after that first go? What was it about the second go that sort of bit the bug for you?
For me, it was the adrenaline and speed. After my first run, even though it was terrifying, I realized the thrill and excitement of the sport. I ended up falling in love with the experience.
Episode 527 - Hallie Clarke Interview
Q: How do you feel after winning the World Championship at such a young age?
I was already in shock and felt like I was in a dream, especially when people started recognizing me.
Episode 527 - Hallie Clarke Interview
Q: What possessed you to try Skeleton in the first place?
I randomly found it after my family moved to Calgary and saw a free learn to push sign.
Episode 522 - Lisa Carrington Interview
Q: I mean, is it confusing because you got kiwi fruit, then you got the bird, but then obviously I just think of a kiwi as a person from New Zealand?
Yeah, but it's all New Zealand. I love it. I think we refer to ourselves as kiwis.
