Episode Description

The winter Olympics has been full of highs, seeing athletes at the top of their game hurtling down mountains, absolutely nailing their performance. And then seeing some of those same athletes having a bad run and messing up their chances for a spot on the podium. While the pressure on the Olympic world stage is huge, the disappointment and compassion we feel is relatable.

Jules and Jez talk about some of the winter Olympic highs and lows and some of the more curious sports like the double luge.
