This week on the show, Mac & JA spoke to the pod's #1 ticket holder and fan favourite, Kyra Condie. It's safe to say that we have a soft spot for Kyra, as she was our first ever guest interview way back in March of this year. Fast forward nearly 8 months and a lot has happened on her journey and in her career as a professional sport climber.We delve into her first Olympic experience including her nervous 18 month build up to the Games and her fan girl moments running into basketball superstars Yao Ming & Rudy Gobert. We also cover her disappointment of not reaching the Olympic finals and what she would've done differently had she had her time again. We loved having Kyra on the pod once again and can't thank her enough for giving two Aussie idiots another go. Speaking of, the lads even try and make Kyra an Aussie national with an impromptu citizenship test. Find out and see how she fared and whether or not she will be representing Australia in Sport Climbing at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games!Thank you for listening to the show.
