Podcast appearances and mentions of eileen gu

Lou Perez sits down with his friend Hatem Gabr, host of the Live from America podcast, for a wide-ranging conversation that touches on faith, sports, immigration, and American identity. The duo discusses Ramadan practices and misconceptions, the recent controversy over Muslim prayers and dogs in Times Square, and the thrilling U.S. Olympic hockey victories. They dive into heated debates about athlete Eileen Gu's decision to represent China, the role of politics in sports, and what it truly means to be American. The conversation also covers immigrant athletes, police-civilian tensions during NYC snowball fights, and the complexities of patriotism and identity in modern America. Throughout it all, Lou and Hatem bring humor, perspective, and genuine cultural exchange to these timely topics.

Boomer and Gio react to Team USA's gold medal glow showing up in Washington, with Jack Hughes expected back on the ice tonight and the Devils crowd ready to explode. Then the conversation swerves to Eileen Gu, endorsements, and the whole dual citizenship debate. From there it's NFL Combine season: Aaron Glenn talks year-two growth, Joe Schoen claims he's “crushing” film, Harbaugh gives the full alignment speech, and the league keeps trying to convince itself it has quarterback answers. Plus, the Colts admit the pressure is real with Anthony Richardson. And back in New York, the Knicks get embarrassed in Cleveland, KAT disappears in the second half, Wally brings the heat, and everyone's left asking what's actually going on. Sprinkle in Dan Hurley's “adjustments are overrated” rant, St. John's chasing win No. 14, MLB's ABS challenge chaos, and yes, a bizarre fossil headline that somehow makes the show.

A televised speech became a stress test for our politics, and the pictures told the story. We walk through how boycotts, sit-downs, and shout-backs handed Trump the contrast he wanted, why the “I'm normal, you're crazy” line worked on live TV, and where he showed rare discipline that even skeptical analysts admitted landed. From immigration and crime to a bipartisan opening on a congressional stock-trading ban, we unpack the moments designed to force stand-or-sit choices—and why those clips will echo into 2026.Then we pivot to culture, because that's where politics hides in plain sight. USA men's hockey brought home gold and a rare burst of unity, yet parts of the sports media framed the celebration as suspect if it brushed against Trump's spotlight. We put that next to the glowing coverage of Eileen Gu—a U.S.-raised star competing for China with no reckoning over human-rights realities—and talk about the asymmetric narratives that make ordinary patriotism feel radioactive. If shared joys turn partisan, everything else gets harder.We also break down a Gavin Newsom clip that drew a searing response from Nicki Minaj and ask the bigger question: what happens when “relatable” crosses into phony? Add California's stalled rebuilding and insurance failures, and the 2028 shine looks scuffed. To close, we switch gears to something tangible: a meaningful pattern shift aiming multiple storms at New Mexico. Better snowpack could curb fire risk and salvage late-season ski days—small wins that matter in a dry winter.If you value straight talk, sharp analysis, and a little hope where it counts, hit follow, share with a friend, and drop a review.

Megyn Kelly is joined by Andrew Klavan, host of "The Andrew Klavan Show," to discuss leftists melting down over Trump's mild joke about the women's USA Olympic hockey team during his men's team call, the absurd charges of sexism about the men's team, the modern left's aversion to patriotism, bizarre praise of Eileen Gu who is competing for China and loves praising herself, shocking incident at BAFTAs involving a Tourette outburst and racism accusations, the truth about Tourette Syndrome, NYC thugs attacking NYPD officers with snowballs, Mayor Mamdani making a joke and referring to "kids" doing it, and more. Then Will Geddes, James Hamilton, and Eric O'Neill, security experts and former law enforcement officers, join to discuss bombshell reports that images of the mystery man at Nancy Guthrie's house are from different nights, the sheriff again refusing to confirm or deny it, what it would mean if the individual was there before the abduction, the new Savannah Guthrie Instagram video revealing Nancy was “taken from her bed,” her decision to up the reward to as much as $1 million, signs the family may be losing hope, a new theory emerging about how Nancy Guthrie could have been removed from her home, new reporting on blood droplets both outside and inside the home house, why multiple people might have been involved, and more.     Klavan- https://www.youtube.com/@AndrewKlavan Geddes- https://www.icpgroupcompanies.com/index.html Hamilton- https://www.hamiltonsecuritygroup.com/ O'Neill- https://ericoneill.net/books/spies_and_lies/   Joi + Blokes: Go to http://joiandblokes.com/MK and use code MK for 65% off your labs and 20% off all supplements PureTalk: Tired of big wireless prices?

Gio sees a lot of racing in the middle of the night on his way in. A caller wondered about Eileen Gu, and Boomer called her insufferable.

We get into the US hockey's gold medal win, the 3-on-3 format debate, and caller frustrations over electric car costs. Gio notes potholes and street racing on his commute, while Boomer shares his take on Eileen Gu. Snowballs thrown at police piss off Boomer. Then Jerry has President Trump's SOTU invite to the hockey team, news that the Falcons will release Kirk Cousins, the NFL combine, and Jeff Kent's insults toward A-Rod. Following the Moment of the Day, Gio and Boomer talk combine viewing habits and the quarterback market opening on March 11.

“Send Coach John a message”I found this post from Greg Berge (@GregBerge) where he shared this clip from American Freestyle skier, Eileen Gu. Greg's intro was this:  “This is a Mindset MUST-watch. Bookmark and share.  We can become exactly who we want to become. We can control our thoughts.”  It was such a breath of fresh air starting out with a sincere question from the reporter, whose name was Charlotte, and you can tell there is a bit more of humor coming from other reporters as to the down to earth way of asking it. The answer that Eileen gave - total brilliance!  These were my thoughts as I shared this post:  “Love this!! I've been thinking a lot lately of how my 8 year old little self would be proud of me today! (Also remembering he's still a part of me) I'm also thinking about how my future self would be grateful for the things I'm doing & thinking today!” You can tell by how fast she talks, that she has a lot going on in her head and / or she's simply full of passion for what she does in life. I think that's really cool that she explained a little bit of what is going on inside her head and what we can learn about it. Outstanding clip here and I'm glad I found it as I think the value from this is simply tremendous.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Welcome to Season 6, Episode 8! What do you get when you mix Jamaican Reggae with Hawaiian music. This isn't the set-up for a joke, it's an episode on Jawaiian music, sometimes called Island Reggae. Today we talk about the origin of Jawaiian music, who some of the key musicians were, why it resonated with so many Hawaiians, and some of the small controversies around it.  We go more in-depth on three key musicians who have made a HUGE impact in Jawaiian music: Brother Noland, Fiji, and J-Boog. To get an idea of the spirit of Jawaiian, then look up their work!  In our recurring segment, we do some celebrations of the API in the 2026 Winter Olympics. Although we recorded before they were over, we wanted to celebrate what's happened so far for Asian Pacific athletes. We also take time to rant a bit about the really two-faced coverage of Eileen Gu, Chloe Kim, and Alysa Liu.  If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.

Today, Les, Jamil, Jess, and Morgan unpack the geopolitical undercurrents of the Winter Olympics. The spotlight has fallen on athletes like Alysa Liu, competing for the United States, and Eileen Gu, who chose to represent China after reportedly receiving a lucrative offer from Beijing. Meanwhile, the U.S. men's hockey team's victory over favored Canada, America's medal race with Norway, and even off-ice political theatrics have fueled debate about nationalism, identity, and how leaders frame athletic dominance.Do medal counts and hockey championships shape national narratives in ways that affect how countries see themselves and each other? Do the Winter Olympics play into Trump's view of the world? In an era where global competition extends from military power to medal counts, how much geopolitical weight should we really assign to the Games?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.@lestermunson@jamil_n_jaffer@NotTVJessJones@morganlroachLike what we're doing here?

This podcast is normally a place to talk movies and streaming shows, but the Olympics provided their own form of drama during the two weeks of the Games that just concluded. You had the 'Quad God' Ilia Malinin falling short of gold. There were the ice dancers — and "Glitter & Gold" stars — Madison Chock and Evan Bates, who took silver following team gold. And there was also Eileen Gu, the American-born freestyle skier competing for China and a major social media influencer. In this week's episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz talk about the Olympics, their favorite moments, and the Netflix miniseries "Glitter & Gold," which takes viewers behind the scenes and into the world of ice dancing. Miller also shares some of the other shows he's been watching, such as "The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins" with Tracy Morgan and Daniel Radcliffe, the return of "Scrubs" with Zach Braff, season 3 of "The Night Agent" with Gabriel Basso, and season 2 of "Paradise" starring Sterling K. Brown. Finally, we chat about the full trailer of "The Mandalorian & Grogu," which marks are return to theaters for "Star Wars" when it debuts on May 22. About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY

It was a massive final day of Milano Cortina 2026, with the Closing Ceremony capping off an epic day of medals and we're here to wrap it all up in style! We give our take on a very unique Closing Ceremony and debate whether hosting it in what was essentially a theatre was a good or bad move. We also try to work out if we actually learnt anything about the French Alps, as well as how we really feel about Kirsty Coventry and her speeches. We also dive into THAT hockey final and reveal whether Ben is sad, happy or somewhere in between after experiencing it in person. Plus, we run through the other medal events from the day and do our best not to talk about Eileen Gu. It's one massive way to close out the Games, don't miss it!

22 year old Eileen Gu made the decision in 2019 to ski for her mother’s home country of China rather than the U.S. Two Olympics later, and Gu is not only the most decorated female skier in her sport, but the highest paid athlete at the Winter Games. Gu has been criticized by many, including VP J.D. Vance, but she says money doesn’t motivate her, instead it’s the hope that she’s inspiring millions of young people where her mother was born.

Utah Jazz need to stand up for themselves Eileen Gu didn't win two silver medals, she lost two golds Final thoughts

Hour 1 Starting Lineup: BYU not a blue blood yet KG unleashed what you may have missed Hour 2 Bleacher Report NBA writer Andy Bailey John Canzano Whole World News: Team USA wins gold Hour 3 Utah Jazz need to stand up for themselves Eileen Gu didn't win two silver medals, she lost two golds Final thoughts

In this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast, I explore something that happened yesterday. I had another episode planned for this week, but I put it on the shelf for now because I’ve been drawn into a fascinating situation that did the rounds after the freestyle skier Eileen Gu was asked, by a reporter after competing at the winter Olympics, what she described as a ridiculous question. The whole thing struck me as reassuringly messy and human. The reporter wanted to know if she considered the two silver medals she had won as two silvers gained or two golds lost. Within hours, the internet had blown up. People were calling this reporter misogynistic and celebrating Gu’s response, describing it as owning him after such a stupid comment. https://youtu.be/npRgyn19FvA What Happened? Eileen Gu had just competed in her second freestyle skiing event of the Winter Olympics Milano Cortina 2026. She won two silver medals. The reporter from Agence France-Presse asked whether she viewed those medals as two silvers gained or two golds lost. Gu responded by saying she thought that was a ridiculous perspective to take. She spoke about all her achievements and the pride she takes in being the most decorated female freeskier in history, doing things that have never been done before. She previously won two gold medals and a silver medal in the same events at Beijing 2022. A Standard Question The clip has split opinions. But whether or not you think it’s a bad question, it is familiar to those who follow sports coverage. It’s not a surprising question to ask an odds-on favourite, especially if they have won previous competitions. Studies have shown that silver medalists often feel more disappointment soon after an event than bronze medalists, focusing on what they could have won rather than what they almost didn’t win. There is something interesting in that. Something worth exploring if you want to understand the psychology of elite competition. The question picks up on the contrast between what someone feels going into an event and how they feel about the outcome. Understanding Perspective is Misread as Having a Dig In football here in the UK, after a team draws a league game, they are often asked if they feel like it was one point gained or two points dropped. It depends on expectations. It depends on whether they felt they ought to win it or whether they would have been happy to take something from the game. This is never considered a ridiculous or insensitive question. It is understood as what it is, which is a curious probe into the team’s or player’s mindset and perspective. It’s an invitation to reflect on performance against expectations and share that with listeners to provide greater context for the result. The question is worded as, “Do you see it as this or that?” It invited Eileen Gu to share her perspective. He did not state his opinion. He asked how she saw it. But Gu seemed to interpret this question as his perspective (criticism, judgement, etc.) and took exception to it. Why did it land in The Wrong Way? This might have been a matter of timing. A post-event press conference might feel like the wrong moment for philosophical reflection, which is what this question invites. In the rawness of the moment, having just competed, having just finished second when you had hoped for first, the last thing you might want is someone asking you to frame your feelings. Maybe in time, there would be an opportunity to think about how it felt to come second on this occasion. But in that moment, the question lands differently, perhaps feeling like a criticism. What we might be seeing in Gu is a projection of disappointment, aimed at the perspective she reads into this question. An external representation of an inner voice. It would be understandable if she were disappointed. She has won gold before. She knows what that feels like. And now she has two silver medals. It is a vulnerable thing to admit publicly, and anyway, why should she? She doesn’t owe anyone an answer to that question. Misunderstanding the Culture of a Sport There is another layer here. Like most sports, freestyle skiing has its own culture. It is a discipline where being the odds-on favourite does not guarantee anything. The athletes understand that many factors determine their fortunes when they are out there competing. There seems to be a wonderful sense of camaraderie among them. Great appreciation for the work they all put in, the tricks they attempt, and the fact that whoever wins deserves it on the night. A question framed entirely around winning and losing might feel ignorant of the spirit and values tied to a sport’s culture. It might feel like an outsider imposing a mainstream sports narrative on something more nuanced. Last week, Ilia Malinin had a huge amount of expectation heaped on his shoulders as he competed in the men’s figure skating. The pressure was a lot to handle. He made mistakes. The commentators painted a picture that assumed skating for gold was a formality, that he would take it no matter what. So when he finished eighth, it was a shock. If he had finished second, you could fully imagine exactly the same question being asked of him. It would make sense because of the context. We project a lot of expectations and assumptions onto sports stars. But we don’t know what success means to them at a particular moment in their journey. As such, we don’t know whether they are disappointed or delighted when they finish in a particular position. We can’t know unless we ask. There are different ways to do so. This is a lesson that applies to so many areas of life. The Internet’s Role And this is also where social media comes into play. Because the clip lacked context, it was designed to spread as a rage-baiting weapon. Within hours, the reporter had been transformed into a villain. People used some rather unpleasant, even violent, rhetoric to describe him. A huge number of assumptions and projections were layered onto the messages accompanying the clip. There is still a great deal of misogyny and sexism in sport, as in everyday life. The way people talk about women at all levels and across many roles is steeped in it. So when we see a situation like this framed in that way, it can undermine efforts to change this landscape. If a standard question asked of countless athletes over countless years suddenly becomes proof of something sinister, the word loses its power. The charge becomes a rhetorical cudgel that can be dismissed and diluted by those who want us to believe it doesn’t exist. I don’t know anything about the reporter and his views. But if we take the clip as a standalone artefact (which is all we have) and pick the bones out of it, there’s nothing to support the charge of misogyny. If Gu were a man, the question would make sense. If the reporter were a woman, it would still be asked whether the athlete was male or female. Many describe the question as inane and stupid, which is a different point altogether. Others say it is fair and interesting. Judgement is in the eye of the beholder. If you want it to be terrible, it can be. If you want it to be good, it can be. The words are the same. The meaning changes depending on who is listening. And I think that is one of the main points here. A Reassuringly Human Response What I see in Gu’s response is reassuringly human. There is an air of defensiveness, with the inner voice of disappointment attaching itself to a target. The reporter became that for her as he asked a question that was the wrong thing to say at that time. Or maybe it was the perfect thing because it gave her an object toward which she could direct some cathartic scorn. This is yet another example of the internet turning a natural human exchange into a battle. This weird age we live in of competitive conversations. It has been framed pretty carelessly and somewhat recklessly into a polarising story. The real story that underpins it is about what we expect from public figures and how social media strips context from situations and amplifies outrage. We see the impact of the pressure to perform, not just on the slope, on the field, on the court, but in front of the press, in front of the media. And then to become some kind of symbolic figure for the way everybody has interpreted your response in that setting. Most of all, it is about how we listen. It is about what we hear. It is about what we bring to a twenty-second clip. What we project onto it, what we are subconsciously looking for, and the impact of being braced to hear certain things in certain ways.

On this episode, Alex and Martin Benes dive into the thorny politics of national allegiance in sports, using Eileen Gu's choice to ski for China as a jumping-off point. They debate whether athletes owe their success to the country that nurtured their talent, the country they choose to represent, or both, comparing Gu's decision to stars like Chloe Kim and Russian athletes competing for the U.S. Beyond individual cases, they explore how national pride, global branding, and personal identity collide in a world where sports are as political as they are competitive. This episode challenges listeners to rethink what it really means to “represent” a nation in the modern era.

Mike Pesca wrote a fine piece for the Free Press on how oddly not controversial the supposedly very controversial Eileen Gu is. She's from the United States, but competes for China, and yet receives…mostly glowing mainstream American coverage? What's with that? And beyond Gu, what's the elite American consensus on China? But before the topics are introduced…Per the new Substack/Polymarket partnership, I'm posting an Eileen Gu involved competition. As someone incapable of accurately pricing Winter Olympics events, I'm interested in whether bettors reflect Gu's true odds for winning the Ski Halfpipe. As of this writing, Polymarket has her favored to triumph. Fame halo effect, or accurate probability? And onto the Pesca pod topics…* Would we bet that Chuck Klosterman has a secret North Dakota accent?* Eileen Gu is certainly beautiful, but does she also look a little terrifying? * Is the lack of elite anger towards China rooted in corporate considerations?* America is less patriotic now, especially among the young. Bad thing?* Is the United States the best country?* Per the Jeremy Carl congressional dustup, is there such a thing as White American culture? * Stuffwhitepeoplelike was a great website* Is there such a thing as a “white guy basketball assist”? * Is it plausible that Spike Lee's All-Star Game Palestine outfit had nothing to do with Deni Avdija?

It's a packed morning on Rush Hour.

On this episode of the podcast, former U.S. champion gymnast, producer, two-time author, and XX-XY Athletics Founder and CEO Jennifer Sey joins the show for a candid and powerful conversation about courage, conviction, and protecting the future of women's sports.Sey reflects on what matters most in her life, sharing that her greatest pride is her children, even as her brand has grown into a national force defending fairness in female athletics. She unpacks the viral success of XX-XY Athletics' “Real Girls Rock” ad, which was shared by author J.K. Rowling and ultimately surpassed 40 million views. During this year's Super Bowl, Sey simply reshared the same ad and it generated more than 3 million views in just 12 hours. Without spending millions on a commercial slot during this year's big game, the online response to the same ad two years in a row only proves that Americans are hungry for clarity, courage, and common sense when it comes to women's sports.The former elite gymnast also weighs in on the controversial trend of athletes switching national allegiances for financial incentives, citing the case of freestyle skier Eileen Gu, and explains why loyalty and integrity still matter on the world stage.While cultural support for women's sports continues to grow, Sey acknowledges that many athletes remain hesitant to speak publicly. Even so, she believes the tide is turning. She closes the conversation with a look ahead at XX-XY Athletics' upcoming product launches, including new running, golf, and tennis gear, as the company expands its mission-driven brand.Shop the latest XX-XY Athletics gear at https://www.xx-xyathletics.com/Follow the conversation on X: @AmandaHead, @FurthermorePod, @JenniferSey, and @XX_XYAthletics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A school shooting killed 9 and injured 25. Let's see how quickly the Leftists will blame anything other than the real problem. Idiocracy is coming sooner than we realized. Gen Z is measurably dumber than the previous generation. Let's see if we can figure out why. Eileen Gu is an American born skier who competes for China. You read that right. Let's see what she's up to this Olympics.
