2
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:09,640
Speaker 1: in Paris, still leading in the overall Olympic medal count.

3
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,959
Speaker 2: The United States has now won thirty medals so far,

4
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 2: but home team France is close behind with twenty six medals,

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 2: followed by China with nineteen.

6
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:22,959
Speaker 1: However, there are at least six countries with more gold

7
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: medals than the US. Right now, welcome everybody to this

8
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: tea from Paris edition of Amy and TJ. Again, we're

9
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: not married to that name Peter Perry, but in this

10
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: episode an edge of your Seat Men's all Around final

11
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: where the gold medal was decided on the very last

12
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: routine of the night.

13
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,480
Speaker 2: It was a nail bier. Plus Katie Ladecci's only competition

14
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 2: in the pool yesterday was well, Katie Ladecci lebron. Katie

15
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 2: and crew win, but there is a reason to root

16
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 2: for their opponent. US women advance in soccer, and it

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: is now official Cocoa Golf will be leaving Paris without

18
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 2: an Olympic medal.

19
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: Well, so how was your swim in the river sin?

20
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: When athletes responds to that question, I'm definitely going to

21
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: be using the bathroom later. We'll explain. That's what an

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: American tennis player quits her match because of extreme heat

23
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: and then things got heated with her opponent.

24
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 2: And Simone and Sunny are competing today for the most

25
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 2: coveted title at the Olympics. This is the event that

26
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 2: everyone looks forward to every Summer Olympics, and that's exciting.

27
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 2: But there is also another event that you've been very

28
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 2: excited about that you already watched this morning.

29
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I set my alarm to watch racewalking this morning.

30
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: It's just one of those things you never get to see.

31
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 1: Chris Paul did it in that State Farm commercial. But

32
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: other than that, I haven't seen racewalking in four years,

33
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: since the last Olympics. For all three years, I guess Tokyo.

34
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: But it is the best. It's fascinating to watch. Twenty

35
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: twenty K so they have to go as about too.

36
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: Is that almost a half marathon?

37
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: Right?

38
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 2: Well?

39
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, twelvee a half miles two point four to big exact.

40
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: But it's it's one of those things you never get

41
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: to see, and people even call it weird.

42
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 2: It's funny. It's just female what they have to do.

43
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 2: I'm not knocking the athleticism, but It is funny to watch,

44
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 2: especially if you're a runner, even perhaps to see people,

45
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: because you can't lift your feet off the ground.

46
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: So it's the technical rule there racewalking. What is it?

47
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: You cannot both feet cannot be off the ground at

48
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: the same time. Of course, if you're running and you

49
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: think about it, yes, of course you come off the

50
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: ground both feet. That's one of the rules. Also, your

51
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: front leg, the knee has to stay. Can't be bent.

52
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: What front leg?

53
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: Oh, that's why it's so funny when.

54
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: You start, I said, oh, that makes sense, now, why

55
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: you haven't do that? And you do get a violation

56
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,679
Speaker 1: if you get three, it's a two minute penalty and

57
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: you have to So they're watching you very very closely.

58
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: But do you remember what I say? Twelve point four

59
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: miles a half marathon.

60
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: Is was thirteen point one?

61
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 1: Okay, So tell folks, how how long does it take

62
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,239
Speaker 1: us to run a half? We've done soveral, which is

63
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: generally how long does it take?

64
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: Well, so my best ever is one hour and fifty

65
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: four minutes to run a half marathon.

66
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: An hour and fifty four minutes. Again, that's thirteen miles

67
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: versus they're doing twelve point four the young lady I

68
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: watch today, Wing Gold in race walking did it in

69
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: an hour and twenty five minutes.

70
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. That is that's perspective, right.

71
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: There's perspective, folks. They are walking faster than anybody watching

72
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: can run a mile.

73
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 2: Wow, run a mile? You mean? Oh, you're saying they

74
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,839
Speaker 2: walk faster than we can run. They walk a mile.

75
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: Faster than you can run a mile.

76
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 2: Our pace, what I mean, A good pace for me

77
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: is eight forty five to have it be long distance,

78
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: and eight forty five is a good pace.

79
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: The men in race walking are doing under seven minute miles.

80
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 2: And I have never don run any race that quickly.

81
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: I could run a mile like that or maybe two,

82
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: but I could not do more than that.

83
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: It is one of my It's impressive. So that happened today.

84
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: You still get a chance if you listen to our

85
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: voys that they are having some replays. You will be

86
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: able to catch it on USA today if you get

87
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: up early enough. But that is a blast. You missed

88
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 1: that this morning. We're fencing up on the TV right now.

89
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: There was some some table tennis action this morning, So.

90
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 2: You set your alarm once again for three forty five.

91
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 2: I got up at five, So I missed all of that.

92
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 2: But maybe I can rewatch some stuff. But you know what,

93
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 2: I would even rewatch, but we watched yesterday.

94
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to see that again.

95
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 2: It was amazing the men's all around final. There were

96
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 2: some gutting moments. There were some exhilarating moments for all

97
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 2: of the men competing, but for the two US men,

98
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 2: it was tough. You know, we planned our entire day

99
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 2: around watching this competition. We were preparing lunch, so we

100
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: had the TV and the kitchen going on, and the

101
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 2: TV in the living room going on. But right when

102
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 2: the event started, we were still getting lunch ready, and

103
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: before we could even get our food on the plate,

104
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 2: we just ah, it was disaster for one of our

105
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 2: favorite American gymnasts.

106
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: And we all, look, it's one thing we're always rooting

107
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: for the American athletes, but this is one Why did

108
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: this feel so personal? I felt? When we're talking about

109
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: Frederick Richard, superstar, viral star as well social media star,

110
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: but he was the guy going into this that everybody

111
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: thought had a real chance for the all around. His

112
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: first event was the pommel horse. His very first event

113
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 1: robes was this even a quarter of a way into

114
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: his event, he fell on the palmer.

115
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 2: I feel like it was within the first thirty seconds, right,

116
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 2: And I have honestly right now. You know, I always

117
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 2: get chills, but I have chills right now because I'm

118
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 2: reliving it in my head, you know. And you even

119
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 2: hear the commentators talk about what a good guy this

120
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 2: kid is, and he is a kid. He's twenty years old,

121
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 2: but you were rooting for him, and then his hand

122
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 2: just slipped, and you know, they put the chalk on

123
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 2: their hands for grip, but also can cause some slippage

124
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 2: because it's slippery, as you might imagine, and it just

125
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 2: for whatever reason is probably just nerves and all of

126
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 2: the things that go into being up on the pommel horse.

127
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 2: And everyone talks about that being a really tough event,

128
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 2: and once he slipped and fell, it was nearly impossible

129
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 2: for him to catch up.

130
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: You talk about this first event, you were talking less

131
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: than an inch of it. If his hand had been

132
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: maybe to the left, just a half an inch, he

133
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 1: would have stayed on the pommel horse. And that is

134
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 1: why this sport is so devastating, and just that one

135
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: little thing at the beginning, and his day was essentially

136
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: over and we screamed in the kitchen. We like it

137
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,799
Speaker 1: hurt us so back. Can't imagine what he was going through.

138
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: But this is how you get into these guys, these girls,

139
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: and these stories and the Olympics, and it just it

140
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 1: pains you to see it sometime. But he had a

141
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: tough one and so does a teammate.

142
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and anyone who has ever watched or been a

143
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 2: part of the gymnastics sport, it is always about perfection

144
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 2: and that's what makes it so tough because if you

145
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: are less than perfect and these points, these scores come

146
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 2: down to just fractions, and so yes, one misstep, especially

147
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 2: a fall, but even a babble can cost you a medal.

148
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 2: And that's what happened to Paul Judah. He had his

149
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 2: own issues. He had a really bad stumble on his

150
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 2: landing on the vault and he nearly went off the mat.

151
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: And again we just went, oh no. So you know,

152
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: Judah and Richard, we should mention finished fourteenth and fifteenth.

153
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 2: That is respectable, but not certainly what they had hoped for.

154
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 2: They were both, or especially one of them, hoping for

155
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 2: a medal. But other than that, the event was thrilling.

156
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 2: If you didn't have a country you were specifically rooting for.

157
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 2: Just watching this year, level of talent was remarkable. It

158
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 2: was you couldn't even believe what these men were pulling

159
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: off and the precision with which they were doing it.

160
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 2: The gymnasts from Japan and China and Ukraine and Great Britain,

161
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: they were showstoppers, and up until the very end they

162
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 2: were in the mix to get a medal, and you

163
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: didn't know who was gonna get what.

164
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: But this is one of those things where if you

165
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: watch any other sport, if it's two outs, bottom of

166
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: the ninth type of situation and the team is down by one,

167
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: if there's I don't know, two seconds left on the

168
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: clock and Tom Brady just drove his team down to

169
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: the forty five yard line. Now the kicker had to

170
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: come out and make a kick to win the Super Bowl.

171
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: This is what happened in gymnastics yesterday in a way

172
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 1: that I haven't quite seen it myself. But China's Jong Bohong,

173
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: he is a stud in this sport. Now he had

174
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: the high bar. He's the last competitor go on the

175
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: last apparatus. So this is the ultimate Olympic and sporting moment,

176
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: last man to go, last rotation. All you have to

177
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: do to get a gold medal is this, get a

178
00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 1: score of at least fourteen point eight six six to do.

179
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 2: That's funny. All that is a really hard score.

180
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: I think a lot of but a lot of athletes

181
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: will tell you. You tell me what my target is.

182
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: You tell me, you tell me. Any any one of

183
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: those Olympians yesterday would have said, hey, would you take

184
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: this scenario that you need a fourteen point eight sixty six,

185
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: It's in your control. They would take that. So he

186
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: needed a fourteen point eight sixty six. He got a

187
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: fourteen point six three three and had to settle for silver.

188
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 2: I mean, he still seemed pretty happy, but of course

189
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 2: everyone wants the gold, especially at that level. But the

190
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 2: man who got it, Japan's shinoska Oka, got the gold,

191
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 2: and he certainly deserved it. It was remarkable to watch

192
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 2: him do what he did on all six of those events.

193
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: He was almost nearly perfect. But this was a big

194
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: win for Japan in general because this is the fourth

195
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 2: straight Olympic title for Japanese men, and it's always a

196
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 2: big rivalry between Japan and China. I loved watching when

197
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 2: Japan got gold and China got silver, and that's exactly

198
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 2: what happened in the all around as well, but the

199
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 2: team finals. But I loved watching the camaraderie between the two.

200
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 2: They were congratulating each other, and that's something that you appreciate,

201
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: and with all the discord we have, that's one of

202
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 2: the things we love about the Olympics is to see

203
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 2: countries competing and then congratulating one another, supporting one another,

204
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 2: even cheering one another on. That's the beauty of the

205
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 2: Olympics because.

206
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: They understand the sacrifice the way nobody else can what

207
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: it takes to do that. So now all we have left,

208
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: we have one day of men's gymnastics left, I guess,

209
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: and that's when they go for the individual medals on

210
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: the individual on the individual disciplines. So I get to

211
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,839
Speaker 1: hear my boy justin Spring one more time, the commentator

212
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: that I absolutely love. I cannot give this guy enough

213
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: credit for how he guides us all kind of through

214
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: what we're seeing and he I just love the guy.

215
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: But the only chance to see an American male is the

216
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: pommel horse specialist now who became, I guess, a viral

217
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: glasses wearing sensation Stephen Netta Rozzik who brought it home

218
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: on the pommel horse for Team USA to win that bronze,

219
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: he'll go for an individual medal on pommel horse. What

220
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: is that? I think it might be tomorrow, my Friday

221
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: or Saturday.

222
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 2: I think it's this weekend, but we can double check,

223
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 2: but not today.

224
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: At least we'll give you the update, don't. We don't

225
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: want to if you look it up.

226
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: But something to look forward to, for sure. Gosh, Katie

227
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 2: Ledecki is always someone to look forward to, and she

228
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 2: has joined a group of very distinguished American women with

229
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 2: her win yesterday in the fifteen hundred freestyle. She now

230
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: has twelve career Olympic medals and that ties her with

231
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 2: three other American women for the most swimming medals of

232
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 2: all times, Natalie Coughlan, Jenny Thompson and Dearren Torres. Correct,

233
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: and those are the greats. But my daughters had been away.

234
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 2: They came back yesterday afternoon, right when Katie was swimming

235
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 2: the fifteen hundred, and I had to stop, you know, Ava,

236
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 2: she loves to talk in the middle of Okay, I

237
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 2: love you, Ave, but I have to watch this. And

238
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: we were just jaws dropped. You had told me, like,

239
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 2: when she does this, she's so far ahead. She was

240
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 2: ten seconds r ten seconds ahead of her nearest competitor,

241
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 2: and in swimming it's usually like one one hundredth of

242
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 2: a second, So to be ten seconds ahead and to

243
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 2: just watch her every race, it was the most one

244
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 2: of the most incredible things I have ever watched. To

245
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 2: see her be that much more elite in this particular

246
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 2: event than any other person in the world, it's it was.

247
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 2: It was amazing.

248
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: Oh, you should see her in like the trials or

249
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: smaller events than she laps people in the pool. So

250
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: this event is actually the longest swimming event out there,

251
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: the fifteen hundred. She has the twenty fastest times ever

252
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: in the history of the event.

253
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 2: In the world.

254
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: The twenty fast times anybody has ever done this event

255
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: all belong to Katie Ladecki. Look, all you can argue

256
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 1: all of these Olympians are great athletes. You can argue, hell,

257
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: the linebackers at the University of Georgia are great athletes.

258
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,599
Speaker 2: I think you could argue that for Katie.

259
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: Ldeki though, is a great, She's an all time great.

260
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: She still separates herself in an event like this. She

261
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: is keep watch. She says she's going to do twenty

262
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: twenty eight. But you just we need to marvel every

263
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: time she swims. You need to stop what you're doing,

264
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: you know.

265
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 2: And speaking of that, it's just to get some perspective here.

266
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 2: She her first Olympics was back in twenty twelve in London.

267
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 2: She was one of the youngest women on the team.

268
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: She was just fifteen years old. And now she is

269
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 2: among the oldest swimmers at twenty seven. And look at

270
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 2: what she is doing and to say she's coming back

271
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 2: potentially again is pretty remarkable. I love seeing older athletes

272
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 2: just continue, not just continue their level of athleticism, but

273
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: bring it up and keep getting better. That is remarkable.

274
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 2: And you know what, I also loved watching her at

275
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 2: the end because this was uncharacteristic of her. She got emotional.

276
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: She pounded the pool's surface with her right arm once

277
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 2: she finished, and then when she walked out of the pool,

278
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 2: she pumped her fist and raised both arms in the air,

279
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 2: and well she should, but it was awesome to see

280
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 2: her celebrate the moment and take it in because that's

281
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 2: something sometimes athletes don't get to do.

282
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: She does have two more events this week, one of

283
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: them today actually the four by two, which I think

284
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: American women certainly are favored to get a medal in

285
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: that one. But perspective here, this is how many events,

286
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: how many times i've Michael Phelps is somebody I used

287
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: to work in California in the Bay Area when he

288
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: before he even started his Olympic career, used to cover

289
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: him a little bit, and then followed him and covered

290
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: him in Rio, and we talked about how great he

291
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: is now. And we talk about Katie le Deckey has

292
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: twelve medals. This dude's got twenty eight. He has more

293
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: actually gold medals than anyone just has medals in the Olympics.

294
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: This is some perspective about all of the greatness and

295
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: how he still stands well ahead of anybody in this

296
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: But she is going to become, I think if she

297
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: gets two medals, the most decorated behind Phelps in terms

298
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: of all time medals men or women.

299
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 2: Well, right now, with those other women we just mentioned

300
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 2: her twelve medals, she's tied for the second most medals

301
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 2: of any US Olympic athlete, male or female. But yes,

302
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 2: Michael Phelps is leaps and bounds ahead but she'll be

303
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 2: right behind him.

304
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: But she's I think Jenny Thompson has eight goals the deck.

305
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: He has eight goals, but I think Brian Lockey has twelve.

306
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy? Ryan Locke wow has I think he

307
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: has twelve medals, but he doesn't have as many the

308
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: gold count. But all these names, they come become household names,

309
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: right and we know these guys remember them because of

310
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 1: these moments they have. So please catch her today if

311
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: you can. We did catch the US USA men's basketball team.

312
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: They had a rematch with upstart South Sudan yesterday. Now

313
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: it was an exhibition game last month that the US team,

314
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: of course has all these NBA champions, MVP's future Hall

315
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: of famers. They actually had to come from behind in

316
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: that exhibition last month, and it took a bucket by

317
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: Lebron with seconds to go to beat South Sudan by

318
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: one point.

319
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 2: So you were looking for a tight match.

320
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: I was looking for a competitive fun maybe to get pushed,

321
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: certainly after what we saw a month ago. They only

322
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: beat this South Sudan is brand new team by a point,

323
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: being by seventeen yesterday, and it probably wasn't even that close.

324
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: But the US is going to advance with the quarterfinals

325
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: that now start next week with South Sudan. It's been

326
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: one of those fun stories that some darlings, if you will.

327
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: They won their first ever Olympic game with this new

328
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: team of scrappy guys from South Sudan, so it's their fun.

329
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 2: To watch and it's cool to see what will happen

330
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 2: next because US Team USA plays Puerto Rico next. But

331
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 2: for some just an interesting point, South Sudan beat Puerto Rico,

332
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 2: so it looks pretty good for Team USA three. But

333
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: now yeah, of course, but just for in terms of

334
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: beating Puerto Rico. But now South Sudan has to play Servia,

335
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 2: so we'll see. They're not out yet, so we'll see

336
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 2: what happens with that, but we're rooting for them as well,

337
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 2: right behind Team USA. Speaking of Team USA and who

338
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: we're rooting for, the US women, the soccer team, they

339
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 2: won their group by beating Australia yesterday two to one.

340
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: They're gonna move on to the quarterfinals. They will play

341
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 2: Japan on Saturday. They are one of three teams women's

342
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: teams to win all three of their group play. So

343
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,959
Speaker 2: Spain has won all of their games. Canada has won

344
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 2: all of their games, and we will see this is

345
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 2: going to be a tight match going forward.

346
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: All we put together like a rundown for this. Every

347
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,199
Speaker 1: day we do an episode about the Olympics and collection

348
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 1: of these stories and we kind of write some stuff out.

349
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: The shortest write up we have today is about the

350
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 1: US women's soccer team, because it seems like there's no detail. Yeah,

351
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: they won one big moving on, it seems like we're not.

352
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 2: I tried to find that a little fun fact to

353
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 2: add something to it. But yes, we're killing it. We're

354
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 2: doing great well.

355
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: Unforus of a Coco. Her Olympics is over. She won't

356
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 1: be coming home with a medal. She lost her singles

357
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: match earlier this week. We told you about that. She

358
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: still had two other chances to get a medal, in

359
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 1: doubles and in mixed doubles. She lost in both. Yesterday,

360
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,959
Speaker 1: she and her teammate were the top seeded pair in

361
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 1: women's doubles. They lost in a tiebreaker, and then in roades.

362
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 1: Later in the day, she lost her mixed doubles match

363
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 1: in a tiebreaker as well.

364
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's so disappointing because she came in as

365
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 2: one of the biggest stars of the Olympics. You remember

366
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 2: she was a flag by bearer along with Lebron James.

367
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 2: She's the reigning US Open champion. She had such high

368
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 2: hopes of at least one medal, and this was her

369
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 2: first Olympics. But remember it was supposed to be her second.

370
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 2: She was supposed to be in Tokyo. She made the

371
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 2: US team as a seventeen year old, but just days

372
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 2: before the competition, she tested positive for COVID had to

373
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 2: pull out. So this was kind of her big moment.

374
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 2: She is just twenty. There will be more to come.

375
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 2: But she said this after everything and she realized she

376
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 2: wasn't gonna have a metal. She said, I'll try to

377
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 2: take the positive and do better next time. So she's

378
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 2: already looking forward, but certainly a huge disappointment for her.

379
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 2: That's got to be tough when expectations are set so high.

380
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 2: It's just tough when you can't meet them.

381
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 1: And she set them right. She set them by her performer,

382
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: we have an expectations sometimes with these athletes, and of

383
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: course they can't win all the time. But do you

384
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: remember I forgot about Tokyo, and I was like, oh,

385
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: that's right, Yeah, I got she was on the day

386
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: of her flight. I think she had a positive COVID

387
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 1: test and had about Yeah, that was a we forget

388
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 1: how ugly that Olympics and MESSI they was. We celebrate

389
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: just that it went off. But it was a tough,

390
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:39,719
Speaker 1: tough go last night.

391
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 2: Oh, I was in the state. It was so odd

392
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 2: just to be in the stands with no fans, just

393
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: journalists and it was just Earie. It was an eerie, strange,

394
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: bizarre Olympics where I don't That's what makes this Olympics

395
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 2: so great. I think just to see the fan fair,

396
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 2: to see everyone there, to see families up in the stands,

397
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 2: it makes it's a huge difference for the athletes and

398
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 2: it's just it's it feels so much more celebratory and

399
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 2: supported in a way that it just didn't in Tokyo.

400
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna turn now to what has been one of

401
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: the biggest stories of the Olympics so far, so Robes.

402
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: If you ask someone this question, is that water safe

403
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: to swim in? And their response was, well, it's compliant.

404
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: Would that make you feel good?

405
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 2: I think you know my answer complaint absolutely not.

406
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: Hey, I'm an official with an official badge and a

407
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 1: jacket on, and I look really official. And I'm telling

408
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: you I tested this water robes.

409
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: And it's compliant. I mean, if I'm a swimmer and

410
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 2: I'm competing in the race, that would have been good

411
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 2: enough for me, because you want to win that medal,

412
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 2: and you'll just suffer the consequences, whatever they may be,

413
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 2: because you're a competitor, You're an Olympian, and you're gonna

414
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 2: go for it.

415
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: Might be gross.

416
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 2: Try to keep my mouth closed, okay, and my eyes closed.

417
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 1: But compliant. It's compliant. That's the word from Olympic organizers

418
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 1: about the quality of the water and the River Sin.

419
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: You've heard this by now. They had to cancel some

420
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 1: practices and postpone the triathlons because the water in the

421
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: Sin was unsafe. They had these unsafe levels of bacteria.

422
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: Yesterday they said the water finally passed the pollution check.

423
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: So the men and women's triathlons were held yesterday, which

424
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: require the athletes to swim that first leg ropes, which

425
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 1: is a one point five mile swim in the River Sin.

426
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 2: And just to I mean to get a little specific

427
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 2: the water, the threat to the swimmers if it wasn't compliant,

428
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 2: but maybe even if it's just compliant and not what

429
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 2: would be the next step up from compliant? Good?

430
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: Barely passable?

431
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: Okay, not great, but not terrible anyway. The threat to

432
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 2: swimmers gastro intestinal issues, wounds getting infected, and your eyes

433
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 2: getting infected because of the bacteria count in the SEIN. Yeah,

434
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 2: so we should point out, at the time of this recording,

435
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 2: we have not heard of or seen any reports of

436
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 2: any of those troathletes getting sick afterwards. However, one South

437
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 2: African athlete said after the race, and this is going

438
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: to be a quote, I'm definitely going to be visiting

439
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 2: the bathroom later. I swallowed gallons and gallons of water,

440
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 2: so that's going to be a fun post race party.

441
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: Well, you gotta smile. What do you do? I mean,

442
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 1: what do you do? He said? Gallons and gallon Hopefully

443
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: he's exaggerating, but you're swimming for a mile and a

444
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: half and you're and you know what. They had to

445
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: do it in the river because they are used to

446
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,679
Speaker 1: swimming in these conditions where the currents are part of

447
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: the actual event, so they had to do so. If

448
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: I've never did a mile in a river or something,

449
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 1: can you imagine the water you're taking in? Can you

450
00:22:58,720 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 1: really drink gallons?

451
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,360
Speaker 2: I don't know. But that's a party of one. Oh,

452
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: that's a party of one.

453
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 1: So here's the thing. Though, the winners were a guy

454
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 1: from Great Britain he won the male tra athlete, and

455
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: a woman from France I think one the other. There

456
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: was a US athlete, a Seth Ryder, who competed as

457
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 1: well for the US. But he got attention beforehand because

458
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: he said he was preparing for the nasty water. How

459
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: he said he was essentially trying to take in lower

460
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: levels of E. Coli to prepare his body. How do

461
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: you do that? He said that he didn't wash his

462
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: hands after using the bathroom, okay, in the days and

463
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: weeks ahead of the race. Seriously, he said he was

464
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: to introduce it into his system a little. He did

465
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 1: not wash his hands specifically after using the bathroom.

466
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe that isn't you know, Maybe that is

467
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 2: a smart move, because you know, anyone who's traveled to

468
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 2: other countries who have different water altrition systems will just

469
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 2: say that the locals are fine. It's US Americans or

470
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 2: people who weren't used to those types of levels of

471
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 2: bacteria that get sick, and so it does make some

472
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 2: scientific sense.

473
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: He says it's backed by science.

474
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 2: Others say no, I mean, well, you're full of E.

475
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: Coli.

476
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 2: Yes, literally and figuratively.

477
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: But he says, backed by science. I don't think any

478
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 1: doctor would recommend it. But is there science behind it?

479
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 1: I'm really not sure.

480
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 2: We could ask my dad, he's a microbiologist.

481
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, is he up yet?

482
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 2: He's probably not, but we can check him with him

483
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 2: and report back tomorrow. I think that's a good plan.

484
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: Seth. By the way, with micro dosing the ecola, he

485
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 1: finished twenty ninth in the triathlon.

486
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 2: He finished, and let's just see if he got sick

487
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 2: or not.

488
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: The tennis we had an American, Danielle Collins. She actually quit.

489
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: They don't call it quitting, and I shouldn't use that

490
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: word retired. But she had to stop her tennis match

491
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: yesterday because of stomach cramps dehydration. She says, essentially she

492
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: had a heat stroke yesterday. During that match, temperatures hit

493
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:06,719
Speaker 1: ninety seven degrees and Colins and other athletes have complained

494
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: that Olympics organizers aren't giving them insulated water bottles, so

495
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: they're out there playing in this heat and having to

496
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 1: stay hydrated with hot water. Now, get water into your system.

497
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 1: However you get into your system, it will hydrate you

498
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: all the same. But if it's ninety seven degrees and

499
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: you're trying to cool your body temperature, you do not

500
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 1: want to be taking in hot water. You want cold water.

501
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,679
Speaker 1: She's not the only athlete to complain about this.

502
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean she actually, you know, she did say

503
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 2: she suffered a heat stroke. She was on the medical

504
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 2: table for three hours, and she described what she was

505
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 2: going through. She said she had full body convulsions. And

506
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 2: I have to tell you, you know me running in heat,

507
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 2: and it's not at ninety seven, it's just anything in

508
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 2: the eighties. For me, you have seen me. I vomit

509
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 2: when I was in Tokyo. I was training for a marathon.

510
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 2: It was in the nineties. When I was running, I

511
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,919
Speaker 2: spent the entire day vomiting. I mean, it is real,

512
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,120
Speaker 2: and heatstroke can be deadly, as we've seen with athletes

513
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 2: here in extreme heat, football players, et cetera. But it's

514
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 2: a real thing. And I feel for her because that

515
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 2: is devastating physically. And then how do you play at

516
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 2: an Olympic level when your body is going through and

517
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 2: not everybody's body takes on the heat and those conditions

518
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 2: the same way.

519
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 1: This is scary, I mean where we are right now.

520
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: But athletes, you've been training your whole life for the

521
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: Olympics and you get to the Olympics and you can't

522
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: be at your best because of the heat, or because

523
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 1: you feel like you don't have air conditioning in your

524
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 1: Olympic village dorm, or because you get hot water during

525
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: your event. We really hope no one ends up in

526
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,239
Speaker 1: a serious condition because of this.

527
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 2: Well, the good news is I actually look this up today,

528
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 2: Thank goodness for all of the athletes. The high temperature

529
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 2: in Paris today finally eighty four degrees, tomorrow eighty two,

530
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 2: and then into the weekend the highs in the seventies,

531
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 2: and that's more normal for Paris. This is way way

532
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: way above average, and the athletes are suffering for it,

533
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 2: and I really feel for them. We should mention, though,

534
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 2: what happened at the meeting at the net between her

535
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 2: and her opponent after the match. That's getting just as

536
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 2: much attention, if not more, than what was happening for

537
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 2: her on the court.

538
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: And she was playing a stud Okay, the number one

539
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: player in the world, Ego Siatek of Poland.

540
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 2: I'm glad you said that name.

541
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: You know what. That's why I jumped in.

542
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 2: I was gonna read it and then I was just

543
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 2: gonna say, you know what, I'm just gonna be honest

544
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 2: here and pause and say, hey, babe, why don't you

545
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 2: take this name because I'm struggling with it.

546
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: You nailed it a little more, you do, you do?

547
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: But she's from Poland. She's great. Now you've seen all

548
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: the time a match ends, the two players, no matter

549
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 1: how heated that match was, they come to the net,

550
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 1: they shake hands. They often hug the pleasantries. So when

551
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: they met at the net to shake hands, it was

552
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 1: clear that Collins was saying something that caught Schiatach off guard.

553
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 1: You Actually, she Shiatak at one point kind of put

554
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 1: her hands up, like what's going on? Like let that

555
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: little emoji or that apple emoji right with this? What

556
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: are we talking about? So later they did reveal Collins

557
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 1: was telling Sciatech, you don't have to be insincere about

558
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: my injury. What Collins then elaborated the reporters later saying

559
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: her opponent can be one way on camera and another

560
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: way in the locker room, she said, I quote, I

561
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: don't need the fakeness, is what she said. Would not

562
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 1: comment on it, she said, ask her about it and

563
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: let her talk about it. You hate to see that. Again,

564
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,479
Speaker 1: we talk about, haven't we heard the Olympic ideal? And

565
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: but you had to remember these guys, these women and men,

566
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 1: these athletes are athletes. They are competitors, and competition at

567
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 1: this level gets heated, and maybe this was a part

568
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: of it. But yet you kind of hated to see it.

569
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: But how bad a shade did Collins have to be

570
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: in You're at the Olympics and you have to say, hey,

571
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 1: I have to stop.

572
00:28:58,240 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 2: I get it. I mean, if her body was going

573
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 2: into full convulsions and on a table, that makes sense.

574
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 2: And you have to put your health above a gold

575
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 2: or any kind of a medal, or even any sort

576
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 2: of competition. So it's a tough decision to have to make,

577
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 2: but it was a smart one, I'm sure from a

578
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 2: medical standpoint. So I get that. Now we want to

579
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 2: talk about women's gymnastics, because that is going to be

580
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: the talk of the day and perhaps even of the Olympics.

581
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,719
Speaker 2: But the two previous winners of the Women's All Around

582
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 2: Olympic Gold will now both be going for gold in

583
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 2: that very event again today both women are Americans. We're

584
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 2: talking about Simone Biles and Sunny Lee. Of course, it's incredible.

585
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 2: Only twice at Olympic history have two American women landed

586
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 2: on the podium together. Two thousand and eight we have

587
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 2: Nastia Luken who went for gold, who got gold, sorry,

588
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 2: and Sean Johnson who got silver. And then in twenty sixteen,

589
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 2: well it was Simon Files who had gold and Ali

590
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 2: Raisman for silver. So this is really cool to see

591
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 2: that we could have both women on the podium. I

592
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 2: think most people are betting that Simon will get gold

593
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 2: and soon you might get silver. But you never know.

594
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 2: As we mentioned with gymnastics, one small mistake can cost

595
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 2: you not just the gold, but being even on the

596
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 2: podium altogether.

597
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: I mean, should we even go as far as predicting?

598
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 1: Are we kidding here? Small Biles is gonna win this

599
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: thing running away?

600
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 2: Agreed? But we I you know, you also saw what

601
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: happened to Tokyo. It doesn't seem like she's anywhere near

602
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 2: being in that mind space. She's come over. She's definitely

603
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 2: risen above it and figured it out, did a lot

604
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 2: of work on her mental health, and so you see

605
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 2: what that has gotten her. Where that's gotten her. And

606
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 2: I certainly believe if I was a betting woman, you

607
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 2: could bet the farm that she's going to win gold. However,

608
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 2: anything can happen in the Olympics. Anything can happen.

609
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: Well, you can go to her balance being routine, jump

610
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: up there and just smoke a cigarette, drink a beer,

611
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: jump down, and she'll still win the over world.

612
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 2: That's funny. But you know what is interesting to your point,

613
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 2: and we've heard this from the commentators, because her skill

614
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 2: level is so high. When you have a skill level,

615
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 2: when you start out with it's you have a potential

616
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 2: of getting a higher score than anyone else. You can

617
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 2: actually fall and still win goal. Yes, and if you

618
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 2: have a perfect routeene but it's less difficult and you're perfect,

619
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 2: you don't make any mistakes, you still might not get

620
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: on the podium. It's about now, the way gymnastics has become.

621
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: It's whoever can do the highest difficulty starts out at

622
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 2: such a higher point valuation that you can even make

623
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 2: some pretty significant mistakes and still win.

624
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: Think of it as weighted classes. In high school those

625
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: ap classes, right, that kid got an A in the

626
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: regular class. I got an A in the weighted class.

627
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: So I got a four point three GPA and you

628
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 1: got a four point zero. That's what we're talking about.

629
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: You can this is what this is. And she's just

630
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: so far ahead when she starts an event that it's

631
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: she has the like I said, smoke, smoke a cigarette,

632
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: drink a beer down't balance me and just hop down.

633
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: She will still crush it on the next three events,

634
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: win goal, That's what I'm saying.

635
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 2: All right, Well, you know you will be clapping for

636
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 2: Simone and Suoni and all of tam Usa. But yes,

637
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 2: Simone clapped back at her former teammate, and I.

638
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: Should give you a hard time. She clapp should give

639
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: you a hard time clapping.

640
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 2: That just came to me right now? Oh are you shocked?

641
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 2: That's a kidding. I'm laughing. Do you make fun of

642
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 2: me all the time for my cheesy, cheesy, cheesy moments?

643
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 2: But yeah, so you you wrote who in their right

644
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 2: mind would block Simone Biles on Instagram? Well it was

645
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 2: one of her former teammates. At least, that's what Simone

646
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 2: Biles is saying. There you know, I have not loved

647
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 2: witnessing this. I just got to say, I understand, I

648
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 2: understand the emotion. This just this is hard for me,

649
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 2: even as a woman, because this is just I feel

650
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 2: like this gets all of the attention and the last thing,

651
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 2: I think any decorated female Olympian wants the headline to

652
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 2: be about some beef you have with another and she,

653
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 2: you know, I think it's very fair to say she

654
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 2: did not start it, but there's been some clapping back

655
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 2: and it's stolen the headlines from in a lot of ways,

656
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 2: just the accomplishments. I hate this. But there has been

657
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,479
Speaker 2: a back and forth with her former Olympic teammate, Mikayla Skinner,

658
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 2: and it all started last month when Skinner, she started it,

659
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 2: like I said, made comments that this team USA just

660
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 2: doesn't have the work ethic and she said, and this

661
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 2: is a quote here, besides Simone, I feel like the

662
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 2: talent and depth just isn't what it used to be.

663
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 2: So after the women went won the gold medal the

664
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 2: team Gold, Simone posted a picture of the team on

665
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 2: social media, but her caption is what got the attention.

666
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,479
Speaker 2: She said, lack of talent, lazy, Olympic champions which was

667
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 2: almost assuredly a shot at Skinner.

668
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: Okay. So then in another post yesterday, a follow up

669
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: to that, Simone and a teammate Ordan Giles, showed an

670
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 1: image of a phone being held for some by Simone

671
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: and it had Skinner's Instagram profile up on the screen

672
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 1: and it showed this image. You see, if somebody has

673
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 1: blocked you, you could go to their profile and it says

674
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 1: zero posts and da da da da. So it seemed

675
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:17,280
Speaker 1: to display that Skinner had blocked some moon Now Simon.

676
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: Actually she tweeted out or the thing that's saying, oops,

677
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 1: I've been blocked, and they're kind of having some fun

678
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,799
Speaker 1: about it and going at Skinner. Skinner, we do want

679
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 1: to say apologized, like she put out a statement apologizing

680
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: for her original comments. She also had said she was misinterpreted.

681
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,360
Speaker 1: I didn't hear the live comments that have the context,

682
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 1: so I don't know what she was talking about, how

683
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 1: she was talking about it, but clearly it offended the

684
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: current team and something she said at least she felt

685
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: later she should.

686
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 2: Not have said, oh yeah, and then Soony added to

687
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 2: it because she then put a she then put out

688
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 2: on her social media put a finger down. If Simone

689
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 2: Biles just ended you, and reportedly she ended that with

690
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 2: a hand emoji, you can guess which one that is

691
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 2: since been deleted. So that's just I get it. I

692
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 2: get it. These these girls have worked so hard and

693
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 2: they proved that their hard work paid off, and so

694
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 2: it's very frustrating when someone who was once on your

695
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 2: team then shows some shade. I just I wish that

696
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 2: we could just find some sunshine and the shade could

697
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:21,760
Speaker 2: go away. But just for some point of reference, Mikaela Skinner,

698
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 2: she actually was able to get a silver medal on

699
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 2: the vault. When Simone had the twisties, she dropped out

700
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 2: of that event and so Skinner was put in. She

701
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 2: was there as a potential replacement and so it made

702
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 2: room for her to win. And if you looked back

703
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 2: at the two back in twenty twenty one, I guess

704
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,240
Speaker 2: they were good friends. So it's just it's just tough

705
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 2: to see former teammates and just women in general. I

706
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 2: just I hate this. So I hope we can put

707
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 2: this to bed and we can focus on the athleticism

708
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 2: and just watch and shaer On Biles and Sunny, you know,

709
00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 2: Sony Lee bring home some metal today and we can

710
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 2: just cheer them on and forget this other stuff.

711
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,399
Speaker 1: Hang. Hopefully we'll see Skinner and some Owen and crew

712
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: and maybe it's all okay. Maybe it's been misinterpreted. Everybody's emotional,

713
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: but to your point, yeah, maybe it'll be okay. But

714
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: I would love to talk to Mikayla Skinner. I would

715
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 1: I just wonder where her head. Well, I want to

716
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: find that clip.

717
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 2: It was deleted, you know what that And also she

718
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 2: I should point out she also put up on her

719
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 2: Instagram story. She was trying to make good of making

720
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 2: a bad decision by saying what she said, but she

721
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 2: put up on their story on her story a picture

722
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 2: of the team, the current team who just won the gold,

723
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,319
Speaker 2: and put heart emoji. So she was trying. But you know,

724
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 2: once something like that has been said, you can't really

725
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 2: unsay it.

726
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 1: Let's keep talking about the women of the Olympics for

727
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: a second, and another pretty incredible feat that has been

728
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:50,279
Speaker 1: pulled off by the women of Canadian soccer. They have

729
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: advanced out of the group stage. Now that's tough to

730
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,320
Speaker 1: do for any country. To do it with a six

731
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:02,320
Speaker 1: point penalty is soposed to be impossible, but that's exactly

732
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 1: what they have now done. Remember, the Canadian women are

733
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 1: the defending Olympic gold medalists. They got caught, I say they.

734
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to put the whole team in it,

735
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: but at least the coaches and the coaching staff were

736
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: caught flying drones to spy on their opponents at their opponents' practices.

737
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: The Canadian coach was actually dismissed and sent home before

738
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 1: Canada played it first match at these Olympics. An investigation

739
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 1: continues that an appeal was already denied. But Robes, you

740
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: and I watch a lot of internet. Anytime countries are involved,

741
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: you and I will stop and watch those soccer matches.

742
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,320
Speaker 1: But the group stage, if for folks do watch or

743
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: don't understand you in a group of four teams, each

744
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: of you play each other. If you win, you get

745
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: three points. You lose, you get no points, you tie,

746
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,799
Speaker 1: you get one point. It's just so whoever gets the

747
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,360
Speaker 1: most points out of that group play. They got docked

748
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,319
Speaker 1: six points and they still made it out of group

749
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: ropes by beating winning all of their matches.

750
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 2: And that is remarkable. Also, I just if you're that good,

751
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 2: why do you have to spy. I just the cheating

752
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 2: thing is tough. And by the way, Bev Priestman, who

753
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 2: is the Canadian coach, you mentioned she got sent home,

754
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 2: but this they also got banned for one year, you know,

755
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 2: and think about what that does to the team morale.

756
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 2: So the Canadian coach, the assistant coach, and a performance

757
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 2: analyst were all given those one year bands in addition

758
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 2: to being sent home from the Olympics, and the team

759
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 2: still did what they did, so they are certainly a

760
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 2: force to watch. They're going to be facing Germany in

761
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,439
Speaker 2: the quarterfinals on Saturday, so you know, good for those

762
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 2: girls for being able to rise above and you know,

763
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 2: like you said, what your coach does doesn't necessarily imply

764
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 2: that you had any part of it. And yet you know,

765
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 2: they paid the price and they proved that they're still well,

766
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 2: incredibly exceptionally good at what they do.

767
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,799
Speaker 1: Would have doubts that the team that the players were

768
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: in on this and a part of it, and I

769
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: have to take them with their word on that one.

770
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: But I applaud them for what they've been able to play.

771
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. Today, also just wanted to give a shout out

772
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 2: to US women's basketball. They beat Japan by twenty six points.

773
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 2: They won fifty six straight Olympic games and so they

774
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 2: are certainly a force to watch. The last Olympic game

775
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 2: they lost was back in nineteen ninety two in Barcelona.

00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 2: So kudos to the US women's basketball.

777
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: That's jed that the I mean, as you can imagine,

778
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: the tallest player on Japan's team six to one, the

779
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,719

781
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 2: Well, they're playing Belgium today, so we'll see how that goes.

782
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,359
Speaker 2: But somehow I think we've got this, But maybe that's

783
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 2: just arrogant I don't know, or history. All right, this

784
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 2: is what else we're watching today. It is a star

785
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 2: studded day. Of course, we've just mentioned US women's gymnastics.

786
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 2: If you twelve fifteen Eastern time, some Homebiles Sunny League

Speaker 2: compete in the individual all around finals. We are scheduling

788
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 2: our entire day around that, obviously. Then track and field

789
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 2: had its official start today. You heard TJ talk about

790
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,920
Speaker 2: the race walk. If you were like me and did

791
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 2: not get up at one thirty in the morning or

792
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 2: at three o'clock in the morning to watch it live,

793
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 2: you can watch it later this morning. I will be

794
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 2: doing that. I just I have to see it. So

795
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 2: it's a must watch for me. Maybe it's a must

796
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:16,800
Speaker 2: rewatch for you. TJ.

797
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 1: No, I'm good on So I watched no sport. Where's

798
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 1: that line they tell you? I see you've seen it

799
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 1: in your news career at some point locally where they

800
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: say they tell you the news after it happens, they

801
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 1: tell you the weather before it happens. But sports is

802
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 1: the only thing worth watching live.

803
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 2: Oh that's good.

804
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:34,319
