Podcasts about 2021 olympics

"From the moment I step foot in this sport in 2011 in college, I had no idea what to expect. I always had heard of Trey Hardee, Dan O'Brien and Ashton Eaton so they were my role models. As someone who is so competitive at heart, I wanted to be like them and push my scores to get up next to them. The fact that I've passed a few and I'm getting so close to the others, I'm just honored. That's the only word I can think of and I'm so blessed to have the path that they set for me to carry on this tradition.” This past weekend, Garrett Scantling secured his place for the 2022 World Athletics Championships in Eugene, Oregon by winning the USATF Combined Events Championships. His 8,867 points not only gave him the victory but moved him up to No. 3 on the U.S. all-time list and makes him the 7th best decathlete ever in the world. He finished fourth at last year's Tokyo Olympics but the most interesting thing about his path to success is that he took a break away from the sport. After finishing fourth at the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials, Scantling decided to retire and then signed with the Atlanta Falcons as a receiver for their 2017 spring camp. He also spent some time with the Jacksonville Jaguars. And when football didn't work out, he took a desk job as a financial advisor. We go through all of that and what eventually drew him back into the sport, which he really loves and wants to grow. He'll be joined by Georgia junior Kyle Garland, who broke the NCAA decathlon record this weekend, and two-time Olympian Zach Ziemek on Team USA for Worlds. SUPPORT THE SPONSORS GARMIN: Music.

In this episode, Laurie and Ann talk with Kevin McDowell, a triathlete who just won a silver medal in the mixed relay triathlon and placed sixth overall in the individual men's triathlon. He was one of the first American men to win an Olympic medal in the triathlon. Kevin talks about not only his journey to the Olympics and his pursuit of sports, but also his journey through being diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma at the age of 18 and how that changed his life and how he sees the world. We talk about organizations fighting childhood cancer and about the unfortunate statistic that only four cents on every dollar given to cancer research goes to pediatric research. We talk about Kevin's desire to inspire kids with cancer and why his journey through cancer, his close-knit community, and his pursuit of a dream have fueled him over the years.

Ocean FM's sporting lookback at 2021 revisits a memorable Tokyo Olympics for the Grange duo of swimmer Mona McSharry and athlete Chris O'Donnell - plus TJ Ford's remarkable year in golf.

On Today's Episode of Good Misinformation   -Are the Olympics being set up as a false flag to engage with China? -California mask mandates... who's really surprised? -You can have 25 person orgies... but only if you're vaccinated -5G and covid... how much responsibility does Trump bear?

8:55 | Political scientist Dr. Ashley Esarey unpacks the White House's decision not to send US diplomats to the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, what implications it could have on Canada, and international stability. 30:33 | Calgary-based freelance writer Marcello Di Cintio explains how he recently found himself as an advocate for decentralizing emergency response across Alberta. He took to Twitter over the weekend after his 95 year-old grandmother fell down and had to wait one hour before paramedics arrived. 45:25 | Lawyers Reakash Walters and Joshua Sealy-Harrington along with the Africa Centre's Sharif Haji discuss what the recent verdicts in the murder of Ahmaud Arbery, acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse, and jury awarding $25 million in damages over deadly 2017 Charlottesville far-right rally, tell us about racism in North America.

Dr. Johanna Mellis, a former D1 swimmer and current history professor at Ursinus College, joins Lera for a lively conversation on the history of sports in Hungary during the Cold War. They also touch on the Olympics (past and present), sport diplomacy, and the development of competitive sports on an international plane. For a great visual timeline of Sport in the Cold War and further related resources and collections, visit the Wilson's Center digital archive: https://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/theme/sport-in-the-cold-war ABOUT THE GUEST https://www.ursinus.edu/live/image/scale/3x/gid/7/width/250/height/250/38576_171-Ursinus2021_copy.rev.1635790475.jpg Dr. Mellis is assistant professor in the history department at Ursinus College. She was a D1 swimmer at the College of Charleston from 2004-2008 and co-captain of the team from 2006-2008. She was the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) conference champion in the 400 Individual Medley in 2006, and a bronze medalist that year in the 200 butterfly. She later coached at High Tide Aquatics and Gator Swim Club in Gainesville, FL while getting her MA and PhD at the University of Florida. Dr. Mellis's research focuses on Cold War sport. Her manuscript, Changing the Global Game: Hungarian Athletes and International Sport During the Cold War, examines Hungarian sportspeople's interactions with the International Olympic Committee from 1948-1989. Changing the Global Game shows how Hungarian athletes, Socialist Hungarian state sport officials, and the IOC gradually realized by the 1960s that sporting cooperation with one another - and not East-West political clashes nor resistance - was the way to achieve their respective aims of sport success, career and financial stability, and political and institutional strength. Dr. Mellis is also a cohost of the End of Sport podcast with Drs. Nathan Kalman-Lamb and Derek Silva. They interview athletes, critical sports journalists, and fellow academics to explore all the ways that people use sport to harm others - i.e. through racist mascotry, the NCAA and higher ed's exploitation of Black and Brown college athletic workers, sexual abuse and harassment, transphobia, and more. Through the End of Sport (endofsport.com), she has co-authored pieces for public outlets such as The Chronicle of Higher Ed, The Guardian, Time, The Baffler, and more. She also has sole-authored pieces with The Washington Post and Arizona State University's Global Sport Matters.

In this episode, the boys jump into all sorts of things! We start out with Walmart. Did you know they don't have Apple Pay!? Moving on as the Olympics are wrapping up we talk about why they're relevant and what event you would participate in if they made you join the Olympics. Did you know, most of the Olympic athletes sleep on cardboard-built boxes just to stop them from having sex with each other. We all know that wasn't very successful because there's nothing else for them to do. BUT, what if we treated the Olympics like a lottery? Every four years the United States picks 100 people at random to compete. Now THAT would be entertaining. What event would you be strong in!? A word from our sponsor - Smooth My Balls.

Scarlett Johanson sues Disney for a faulty Black Widow release! Scarlett Johansson, star of the latest Marvel movie “Black Widow,” filed a lawsuit Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court against Disney, alleging her contract was breached when the media giant released the film on its Disney+ streaming service at the same time as its theatrical debut. Ms. Johansson said in the suit that her agreement with Disney's Marvel Entertainment guaranteed an exclusive theatrical release, and her salary was based in large part on the box-office performance of the film. “Disney intentionally induced Marvel's breach of the agreement, without justification, in order to prevent Ms. Johansson from realizing the full benefit of her bargain with Marvel,” the suit said.

Welcome to Sports-Ish with Elisa Hernandez. This week I'm joined by former 2x All-American UCLA Track and Field star turned internationally known professional dunker Jonathan Clark aka JClarkTheJumper. We flashback to college days and how he went from a Track and Field star to a 9-5 job to professional dunking. (7:45) Clark also talks about how he lost his identity after failing to make the Olympics and finding his new passions in sports and life. (13:13) Aside from dunking, JClark breaks down how he also found happiness in teaching and passing on habits of being an athlete on to his students. He goes on to discuss how his social media fame got him the nickname of the “Slam Dunking Teacher”. (23:02) He talks about competing in the U.S. as well as internationally, the perks that come with being a pro dunker and how his wife, whom he met at UCLA, and son not only support but motivate him. (36:36) JClark reveals the meaning behind the acronym J.U.M.P.E.R., the #DotheIMPOSSIBLE movement and what his next goals are in dunking. JClark also discusses how he came back from what could have been a career-ending injury. (46:24) He tells how the mentality of Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan influences him when he is competing and how that relentlessness has allowed him to brand himself as JClarkTheJumper across social media. (51:46) He breaks down how he created and accomplished the high jump dunk and how he comes up with his dunk ideas. (56:35) We wrap up the conversation by sharing our favorite quotes and close it out with a song from an L.A. artist @KBrownOfficial_ “City Celeb”.

“Now that I've been running for over a decade, I could just keep adding things and adding things. And by the end of the day, I would be training 24/7, adding all these new exercises. And I do gain a lot of confidence from doing these things, but then I like to assess what's actually helping me." We're joined by Joe Klecker, 2021 U.S. Olympian in the 10,000 meters.Joe has an amazing story and it was so fun exploring his journey to making the 2021 Olympic team. One of the things that stands out about Joe's story is how both his mother and father were world class runners back in their day. In fact, Joe's mother was an Olympic runner as well! Joe displays so much perspective on making his first Olympic team four years earlier than he originally expected. He said something we all can benefit from when he spoke about competing at his first Olympics: this first big experience is a stepping stone towards more big moments. It's easy to get overwhelmed and forget that we're all on a journey and that every moment, no matter how big, is still a moment to learn and to grow for future opportunities. Joe may only be 24 years old but he shares a lot of wisdom throughout our conversation.Timestamped Show Notes(3:25) Continuing an Olympic legacy…(5:43) A couple of tricks that worked for Jon…(7:16) Key advice to make the 10,000-meter team…(11:12) Making all the right decisions in the last portion of the race…(14:31) “I got a lot of confidence in where I ran my 10k PR, the conditions were a bit warm and I knew that I was well in shape to run the standard.”(16:32) The power of a Coach's belief…(18:37) “You're not just running as hard as you can to hit that pace.
