Podcasts about Summer Games

We're coming to you mid-snowstorm (40 inches in Rhode Island?! Are people just tunneling to Target at this point?) and somehow we start the episode with “we have nothing to talk about” which is always when things spiral the fastest. This week's chaos includes:  The wrinkle debate. What are those lines from your nose to your mouth and why are they suddenly… aggressive? Do we need facelifts? Frownies? Lymphatic brushes from TikTok Shop? Or is this just collagen packing its bags and leaving the chat? Red light therapy masks miracle or $500 mistake? Danna breaks down what it actually does (muscle recovery, inflammation, mood boost… allegedly), but then the ski-trip hot tub drama hits. Red dots. Panic Googling. Bed bug flashbacks. Lice PTSD. Turns out? Hot tub folliculitis. Antibiotics for everyone. Public hot tubs are officially cancelled. Farm update from the barn. Kristin is now the proud mother of two new lambs and still refusing to wash the overalls until lambing season is over. The coat has been washed (breaking news), but the pants may legally qualify as a biohazard. Progress is progress. Olympic feelings. We're not ready for the Olympics to be over. Hockey gold, missing teeth, heartfelt moments, and why the Winter Olympics are basically the unhinged best friend of the Summer Games. Leftovers for 20… from a dinner for 7. Shrimp. Deviled eggs. Soup. Pepperoni bread. A hot cheese dip situation. We may have catered our own podcast night. And we also share about a really cool networking opportunity our kids were part of because in between lice stories, hot tub bacteria, and lambs being born, we're still trying to raise capable humans. It's skincare confusion, farm chaos, mom spirals, and Olympic nostalgia, basically, peak Mismatched. New episode out now. Come laugh with us.

(February 23 ,2026) Mexico’s most powerful cartel leader is killed by security forces. With the Winter Olympics over, L.A. is officially on the clock for 2028 Summer Games. China’s latest AI is so good it’s spooked Hollywood… will it’s tech sector pump the brakes? United States experiencing a tourism slump. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A superstar in both football and track and field Sol Butler pioneered the parlaying of sports fame into business prosperity. In Sol Butler: An Olympian's Odyssey through Jim Crow America (U Illinois Press, 2026) Brian Hallstoos tells the story of a Black athlete's canny use of mainstream middle-class values and relationships with white society to transcend the athletic, economic, and social barriers imposed by white supremacy. Butler built on his feats as a high school athlete to become a four-year starter for the football team at Dubuque German College (later the University of Dubuque), a record-setting sprinter and long jumper, and an Olympian at the 1920 Summer Games. Hallstoos follows Butler's sporting accomplishments while charting how family and interracial communities influenced the ways Butler tested the limits of social and physical mobility and gave him an exceptional ability to discern where he might be most free. From there, Hallstoos turns to Butler's use of fame to boost his entrepreneurial efforts and his multifaceted success capitalizing on his celebrity in the Black communities of Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles. An engaging look at a forgotten trailblazer, Sol Butler illuminates the multifaceted life of a Black sports entrepreneur. Craig Gill is a writer, researcher and historian based in Vancouver, BC. He is the author of Caddying on the Color Line, a history of African American golf caddies in the U.S. South. Learn more about your ad choices.

Aflevering 23 met de eerste vier Olympische Winterspelen!The primary focus of this podcast episode is the inaugural Olympic Winter Games held in 1924 in Chamonix, France, which emerged as a significant milestone in the history of winter sports. Initially conceived as a subsidiary program to the Summer Olympics in Paris, the games garnered such acclaim that they were retroactively labeled as the first Olympic Winter Games after the Norwegian objection was withdrawn. The episode delves into the notable achievements of athletes, particularly highlighting Norway's dominance in skiing and skating, while also recognizing the participation of other nations and the unique circumstances surrounding the event. We examine the statistics of participation, including the stark gender disparity among athletes, and reflect upon the evolving nature of the Winter Olympics as subsequent events unfolded. Furthermore, we discuss the broader implications of these games in the context of international sports and their legacy, setting the stage for future competitions. The exploration of the inaugural Olympic Winter Games, which took place in Chamonix in 1924, unveils a historical tapestry woven with both triumph and contention. Initially conceived as a supplementary event to the Summer Games in Paris, the Winter Games garnered such remarkable success that they were retroactively declared an official Olympic event, contingent upon the withdrawal of objections from Norway, which had its own winter sports competition. This episode meticulously details the geopolitical landscape of the time, highlighting how the absence of notable nations such as Russia, Germany, and the Netherlands shaped the competitive field. The narrative further delves into the performances, with Norway emerging as the dominant force, claiming the majority of the medals, while the dynamics of participation and competition are examined through the lens of the limited number of athletes and nations present. This foundational moment sets a precedent for future Winter Games, illustrating the evolution of winter sports on a global stage. In a reflective analysis of the first Olympic Winter Games, the conversation meanders through the complexities of sportsmanship and national pride, emphasizing the significance of Chamonix as a pivotal location in Olympic history. The episode elucidates the cultural ambiance of Chamonix, described as a fashionable winter resort, juxtaposed against the backdrop of sporting excellence and national representation. The dialogue also touches upon the peculiarities of the early Winter Games, such as the introduction of sports like figure skating and ice hockey, which had previously been included in the Summer Games. The intriguing case of Kylis Krevstem, who uniquely defended his title from the Summer Olympics, serves as a focal point of discussion, highlighting the interconnectedness of winter and summer sports in this nascent period of Olympic competition. Through a serious and analytical lens, this summary encapsulates the essence of the episode, articulating the multifaceted themes of competition, culture, and the socio-political undercurrents of the time. The examination of the evolution of the Olympic Winter Games from their inception in 1924 to subsequent iterations reveals a narrative rich in historical significance and transformation. The podcast delves into the intricacies of the Chamonix Games, the subsequent Winter Games in St. Moritz, and the implications of the Lake Placid Games, all while emphasizing the growth of participation and the increasing prominence of female athletes. Notably, the transition from a predominantly male-dominated field to the inclusion of women in competitive events is articulated with a focus on the societal shifts that accompanied these changes. The episode critically evaluates the implications of the American dominance in Lake Placid, where the competitive format sparked controversies regarding fairness...

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it's ready to help you wrap up the week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Oilers' disaster, the Milan-Cortina Games, scandals at the games, beefs of the week, and more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about the Winter Games in Milan and how it's wild that these cities have to build all kinds of infrastructure for a three-week period. Somehow, talking about the Olympics led the boys to discuss Connor McDavid winning the Scholastic Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons when he was in Erie. Eventually, the fellas got around to McDavid's debut with Team Canada, and how No. 97 was shot out of a cannon for the first game.Changing gears, the conversation turned to sports that you won't see in the Winter or Summer Games, including the new sport where two giant men run into each other at full speed. As you'll hear, the boys clearly love the Winter Games and were not shy about sharing their admiration for these athletes. Sticking with the Milan Games, the guys ran through some of the wildest headlines so far and ranked them by their general absurdity.Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with beefs of the week, Leon Draisaitl's spectacular debut, copyright laws for the games, and how athletes are forced to do commercials just to afford their participation. Even though it was just Tyler, Baggedmilk, and Wanye, the boys covered a lot of ground in the Thursday episode of Real Life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The XXV Winter Olympic Games are underway in Milan, Italy and I couldn't be happier. I love the Olympics. I'll admit, the Summer Games are my favorite, but growing up in the frozen tundra of the Midwest gave me a soft spot for nearly every Winter event. So, while Team USA fights for gold, I figured: what better way to get into the Olympic spirit than by watching some great movies inspired by the Winter Games? Each of these films highlights the grind to reach the Olympics and the agony and ecstasy of chasing greatness. Downhill Racer (1969)We begin on the slopes with Downhill Racer, a character‑driven drama following American skier David Chappellet, a talented athlete desperate to earn his spot on the U.S. Olympic Ski Team. As he competes across Europe, David's single‑minded obsession puts him at odds with teammates and coaches, but no one can deny his raw ability.What makes Downhill Racer special is the realism and the psychology of ambition. The ski sequences are exhilarating, especially the first‑person shots barreling down European slopes. Those sequences alone are worth watching.It's a portrait of the cost of obsession and how the Olympic dream can consume a person. The Cutting Edge (1992)The Cutting Edge gives us a nice blend of rom‑com energy and Olympic ambition.The movie opens at the 1988 Winter Olympics, where both main characters suffer devastating losses. Hockey star Doug Dorsey takes a blow to the head that ends his career. Figure skater Kate Moseley is dropped by her skating partner, ending her gold‑medal hopes.Two years later, training for the 1992 Games, Kate and Doug team up out of necessity and desperation. Doug's rough‑around‑the‑edges hockey mentality smashes directly into Kate's icy perfectionism. But as they train through long hours and grueling routines, their hostility slowly melts into respect, then friendship, then something more. Cool Runnings (1993)Cool Runnings tells the incredible true(ish) story of the first Jamaican bobsled team, a group of sprinters from a tropical island who dared to chase a Winter Olympics dream. When sprinter Derice Bannock fails to qualify for the 1988 Summer Olympics, he discovers that legendary and disgraced bobsledder Irving Blitzer once tried to form a Jamaican sled team. Determined to get to the Olympics any way he can, Derice recruits Blitzer to train a team for the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary.Cool Runnings is a pure feel‑good movie, an underdog tale that radiates joy.It's impossible to watch this movie without smiling. It's comedy, heart, and Olympic determination all rolled into one.Miracle (2004)Miracle retells the iconic story of the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team, one of the greatest underdog victories in sports history. At the center is legendary coach Herb BrooksBrooks assembles a roster of young college players, not the most talented individuals, but the ones who will form the best team. He trains them relentlessly, reshapes their mindset and prepares them specifically to confront the Soviet Union, the unstoppable powerhouse of global hockey.The final act recreates the legendary “Miracle on Ice” that stunned the world. Even if you know the outcome, the film delivers tension and suspense.Miracle is more than a sports movie. It's about grit, unity, sacrifice and the belief that a group of ordinary people can achieve something extraordinary.Those are my picks for the Winter Olympic movie marathon, four films that capture the heart, struggle and triumph of the Games. They showcase the sacrifices athletes make, the hours of training, the impossible odds, and the pure joy of victory. They also deliver everything you want in a movie night: drama, laughs, and underdogs worth cheering for.Enjoy the Games and enjoy the movies.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

When we last saw a swimmer on the cover of SI in August of 1975, it was Tim Shaw after his dominating performance in Colombia. He won three gold medals in the aquatic championships and easily could have garnered a 4th if his teammate, Bruce Furniss hadn't jumped the gun and left the block a bit too soon. That cost the U.S. a world record and Furniss a lot of grief. The 18-year old was despondent about his blunder but less than a month later he had a chance to redeem himself… and he did just that… Once again he anchored the 800m freestyle relay, and this time the result was perfect at the swimming championships in Kansas City… a new world record… and one of three times he touched the wall first in K.C. "It happens very seldom," he said, grinning through his braces, "but once in a while you get a second chance.” A year later in Montreal he would win 2 gold medals including in the 200m freestyle… Only three American men have ever won gold in that event… Mark Spitz (1972), Michael Phelps (2008) and Furniss in '76.  With shot-putter Brian Oldfield on the cover of SI in September if '75, Furniss took center stage in the pool and shook off that disappointing meet from a month earlier while showing the sporting world he was ready to be one the of the all-time greats. Now 50 years later, he looks back on a career where he would go on to set 10 world records and was inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame in 1987. On the podcast, he recounts the story of what happened in Colombia and afterwards how he went to dinner with his teammates when a waiter asked if they had heard what the American had done to cost them a world record? His brother without missing a beat said, yea… you want to ask him about it? That broke the ice as they all had a good laugh and set him on course to his great swim meet in Kansas City that propelled him to greater things in the Summer Games. He tells us how his house was robbed in 1980 and the only things taken? His two gold medals… and what he did to try and replicate them is a great story.. And he tells us how in early 2020, he almost died from a cardiac arrest but was saved by his wife and then upon arriving at the hospital induced into a coma all while Covid was beginning to wreak havoc on the world. Once again given a 2nd chance and just like 50 years ago, Bruce Furniss is making the most of it. Listen to one of the all-time greats to ever get in the pool on the Past Our Prime podcast.

We played The Sounds of Summer Game. Who on the show can identify the most sounds of summer and win a prize for our listener. There was a story out about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift allegedly entering a more public and serious phase of their relationship, with a source saying they’re "more in sync than ever". We give our theories on their relationship and in what direction they are moving in. We shared 3 big scam alerts to look out for online including one that almost got Eddie because of the perfect timing.

Former track and field Olympic champion Marion Jones, who lost her record-breaking 5 medals and served prison time in a high profile doping scandal, thought that her hardest days were behind her. And in that realm, they certainly are. But now she's facing a challenge she never saw coming: perimenopause. This week, Marion opens up about all of it–navigating her past, moving forward from her mistakes, trying triathlon as she approaches her 50th birthday, and the wrecking ball that is perimenopause. From learning to swim to navigating knee pain, hormone shifts, and public scrutiny, Marion shares what it means to start over—and live with gratitude—no matter where you are in life.Marion Jones became the first woman to win five medals in a single Olympics when she won three gold and two bronze in the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney, Australia. She appeared on the covers of Time Magazine, Vogue, and Sports Illustrated and became a household name. Though she never tested positive in a drug test, in 2007 Marion confessed that she had lied about taking performance enhancing drugs and was subsequently sentenced to six-months in prison and surrendered her medals. In 2010 she returned to her basketball roots, having led the North Carolina Tar Heel team to the 1994 NCAA Women's Basketball Championship, and played for the WNBA's Tulsa Shock for two seasons. Marion is now a speaker, entrepreneur, and an expert trainer and coach. Her new podcast Second Wind features guests who've faced major adversities, only to rise up even stronger; because failure isn't forever and reinvention isn't just possible - it's inevitable.
