- Amended review
As I listen to the back catalog of these talented, funny people who remind me of time when competitive figure skating was a prevailing part of my life, I’m removing a star from a previous review. Sarah lamenting the censorship of “pro Palestinian content” on tiktok at a time when our relatives were being raped, starved and eventually shot by Palestinians, really took me aback. To (mis)quote Kobe Bryant “Jews skate too.”

The other host talks a bit too much and overshadows the other two. There were points in the men’s free skate analysis where I really wanted to hear more from Adam Rippon and Ashley Wagner about Olympic pressure and such, but Sarah Hughes kept dominating the conversation. Also how about inviting some great past skaters for interviews…Michelle Kwan, Na... more
