  • 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!
