At the recent IOC session in Mumbai a number of IOC members called for IOC President Thomas Bach to go another term in the job.This would give Bach a further four years. The optics aren't great. It's all a bit North Korea.Jens Sejer Andersen of Play the Game wrote this: Eight-to-12-year term limits for Presidents to prevent accumulation of power are the single most important principle of governance reforms across Olympic sports. If Thomas Bach's term is extended, hundreds of sports Presidents at the national and international level will be inspired to follow suit."So, ripple effects. But did the calls for four more years arise organically or is it an idea planted by Thomas Bach's people?Bach's response was to wave away the calls for another term. Yet the idea is now out there, in the air. A conversation has begun. The Second Bounce - The Coe conundrumSuccessors to Bach are positioning themselves for election, scheduled for 2025.These include Juan Samaranch Junior, son of former President, which is another tricky optic for the IOC's comms dept to handle. And then there's Seb Coe.The problem for Coe has been conflict of interest.His ownership stake in sports marketing agency CSM is often whispered as a barrier to his elevation to the top job. A few weeks ago, that problem went away, when CSM was bought by Casey Wasserman's company. So Seb Coe no longer chairs a major sports agency. Fast forward to that IOC session, and the idea of Thomas Bach going again is mooted by fawning IOC members who owe their place in the room to, erm, Bach. If Bach goes four more years to 2029, Coe will be aged out. The Bach-Coe relationship is described as ‘frosty'. The President would prefer his legacy candidate to be Kirsty Coventry.It's all a bit Succession.So we asked two hugely experienced Olympic insiders for some guidance as to what's really going on.Michael Payne was the IOC's first marketing and broadcast rights director, from 1983 to 2004 and was awarded the Pierre de Coubertin Medal by the IOC for services to the movement.

NOlympics Los Angeles and KNOCK.LA explore the true legacy of the Olympic Games here in Los Angeles by dismantling the false narrative of 1984. The 1984 Olympic Games are hailed as one of the most successful games ever staged. Los Angeles provided a host city experience complete with all the cosmopolitan luxury of Hollywood, all while shedding its reputation as a traffic nightmare and earning a profit. For Eric Garcetti and Casey Wasserman this apparent legacy of success is one of their major selling points for the 2028 Games. But this rhetoric, which is found throughout the 2024 bid book and the marketing surrounding the games, is a shallow mask over the real legacy of 1984. Beneath the star studded Opening Ceremonies and lavish Olympic Village there is a narrative about displacement, policing, and inequality. An event like the Olympics does not slot easily into a city like Los Angeles. Even a normal day sees our streets and communities stretched to their breaking point. LAPD was essential in sweeping away unhoused people around the stadiums and party venues. International paramilitary forces were used to train officers and the department acquired an armored personnel carrier. These capabilities have not been abandoned, but rather LAPD has become more militarized as the city grows. While there is some truth to the idea that 1984 Games turned a profit the full story is much more complicated. By relying on a new form of corporate sponsorship, private funding, and opaque accounting LA walked away with millions of dollars, except it's not public money. The '84 Foundation was created to hold and spend the money, deciding which neighborhoods would reap the windfall, and their largesse was not felt in underserved communities. 1984's legacy is central to understanding the drive towards 2028 and how we can resist these false memories to stop the games.

“Staying consistent over a long period of time is ultimately the greatest way to prove success.”Casey WassermanA force in business, civic affairs, politics, and philanthropy in Los Angeles and beyond, Casey Wasserman is perhaps best known as the chairman and CEO of Wasserman — one of the world's largest, most powerful, and most successful sports, entertainment and lifestyle marketing and management agencies, representing brands, properties and talent on a global basis.When he's not negotiating on behalf of Nike, ESPN, Andrew Luck or Russell Westbrook, he's either leading the charge to bring the 2024 Summer Olympic Games to Los Angeles as Chairman of LA 2024, or funding education, health, arts & human rights initiatives via his Wasserman Foundation philanthropic arm.Lovingly and painstakingly mentored throughout his childhood by his late grandfather Lew Wasserman — one of the most legendary Hollywood talent agents and studio executives of all time — Casey's love of business, sports and entrepreneurship was born early. By ten, he was a torch bearer during the 1984 Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles. By twelve, he was officially employed in professional sports as a ballboy for the Cleveland Browns. And by 24 he would not only own his first professional sports organization — the Los Angeles Avengers Arena League football team — he was named Chairman of the entire league.I've known Casey very casually for a couple years. What impresses me most isn't the success and accolades. Instead, it's how he consistently comports himself — with grounded self-awareness, honest humility, and a very present sense of what is most important in life.This is a great exchange about Casey's remarkable life. It's a conversation about business, entrepreneurship and risk. It's about the indelible power of mentorship. It's about creating a legacy. But most of all, it's a conversation about that which is required to pursue a life of purpose and meaning.I have tremendous respect for this amazing man. I sincerely hope you enjoy the exchange.Peace + Plants,Listen & Subscribe on iTunes | Soundcloud | Stitcher | GooglePlayCheck out Julie’s podcast divine throughlineThanks to this week’s sponsors:Boll & Branch: The first honest and transparent bedding company that only uses sustainable and responsible methods of sourcing and manufacturing.
