The Olympics are a time to put aside politics and come together in the name of sports. For two weeks we can defy the odds, advocate for peace, and put a pause on the daily monotony of life.

If you believe this, I hate to burst your bubble, but The Olympics is one of the most politicized and financially straining events in our society and culture. Playing “Imagine,” at every opening ceremony event doesn’t negate this fact. Someone should probably tell the IOC that.

In this episode you’ll learn more about:

  • The cost of hosting The Olympics and why most cities opt out
  • Why becoming an Olympian is a class issue
  • Complaints about NBC’s coverage of The Olympics
  • Differences in the Paris 2024 Olympics + more
