I love this trio of friends. The Lore series are amazing. Can’t wait to hear Sarah Hughes lore.

United Statesa month ago - Sarah is a Red Flag
I’ll listen again when it’s just Ashley, Adam and their talented guests like Michelle and Kristen. Sarah Hughes is an insufferable antisemite who has called to ban Jewish skaters from competition for “starting a war” like Russia. Our cousin was raped and kidnapped while dancing at a music festival babe. She didn’t start this war and neither did her country. Gross.
Apple Podcasts13510yogiUnited States2 months ago - Nonstop Snark and I love it!
This podcast is EVERYTHING I ever wanted when I was cutting the ice skater playing cards out of SI For Kids (I’m an old)!
Your lore episodes were fantastic, and now that the Olympics are over, I’ve gone back to the start. I remember watching Ashley and Adam skate so beautifully, but the real gem here is NOC Sarah Hughes :) TOE PICK!
Apple Podcasts5LovechumpUnited States2 months ago - very educational
I teach CCD to 5th graders. This past Sunday the lesson was supposed to be on evangelization, and I went into a fugue state and played the kids some clips from this podcast in an attempt to demonstrate that there are in fact MANY people that don’t know about Jesus. It ended up instead evangelizing the children to the concept of watching figure skating. To me it is debatable if following figure skating brings any less suffering than being religious. In any event, walking the via crucis is certain... more
