About this episode

The episode discusses the Super Bowl, Lindsey Vonn's Olympic crash, InflateGate in ski jumping, and Team Canada's Olympic experience.

The ladies break down a Super Bowl, including the Bad Bunny halftime show and what that says about the NFL right now. They then unpack Lindsey Vonn’s Olympic crash and the broader questions it raises about athlete identity, safety, and armchair "experts". From there, the conversation turns to “InflateGate” in ski jumping and the absurd lengths athletes will go for a competitive edge, before closing on Team Canada’s Olympic experience, particularly involving Hockey Canada — from the accommodations fuss to the polarizing jersey designs.
