Like, before we get into the nuts and bills, 81 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: I want to get personal. 82 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: Yes, well, growing up in Montreal. Yes, was a sort 83 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 1: of a very Olympic place because the seventy six games, 84 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: I believe Barb confirm were there. Yes, she said immediately immediately, yes, Well, 85 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: the China thing took you a while. 86 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 2: So because she's the Olympics source, I mean like she 87 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: she's not necessarily all about ancient civilizations. Like if this 88 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: were a Jeopardy map and two categories were ancient civilizations 89 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 2: and the other one was Olympic trivia, Barb would be 90 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: eating up the Olympic trivia. But now we know not 91 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: to tag her in like you do in Jeopardy. 92 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: Like you do in Jeopardy. But Barb as Montreal Eber 93 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: hosted the Winter Olympics seventy six was a was it 94 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: was a summer year. 95 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: No, wo said, that's interesting. So remember one I was like, 96 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: what's your memory? And then you said this that wasn't 97 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 2: a memory. 98 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: It No, I'm saying the Olympics loomed large in Montreal 99 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: because the Olympic Stadium, the Olympic the villain Calgary and Vancouver, Yes, 100 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: Calgary nineteen eighty eight, Vancouver twenty ten, which is a 101 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: plot point in heated rivalry. Yeah, oh yeah, two Winter 102 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: Games katakiel is shockingly low. It does, doesn't it does? 103 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: It does? Now? I the Olympics loomed large. Yes, so 104 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: we But then also it meant that you go to 105 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: the Olympic Stadium. There's a pool there that's in use, 106 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: there's ice ranks that are in use. I don't believe 107 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: I've skated on the ice rink, but you would. Just 108 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: skating and hockey, we're a big part of Canadian life, 109 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: especially as a child. Yeah. And so then when we 110 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: moved to the US, you know, the legend of Michelle 111 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: Kwan was a huge thing, especially amongst Asian people. And 112 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 1: then two thousand and two Salt Lake was devastating, of course, yes, 113 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: oh my god, what is it? What is it? 114 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: It was two thousand and two Salt Lake when Sarah 115 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: Hughes won bar.
