He knows that 162 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 1: he's won this week, like the next couple of weeks. 163 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: This is a Rugby League Fortnite whatever, opening zero, round 164 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: ground zero of the AFL. Whatever you are, no one cares, 165 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: No one cares.

It's like the 201 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 2: raccoon hair. 202 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, is that? 203 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 3: What are we allowed to say that? 204 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: Of course I love that you've said that is like, 205 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: but the b each raccoon hair or the bleached kale. 206 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 4: And the great smile and she gives she would sit 207 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 4: at the back of the bus at school. 208 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: Oh yes, one hundred percent, and she's just got this 209 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: insane smile with the piercings. But she was one of 210 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: those prodigies in figure skating. Now figure skating is similar, 211 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 1: I would say, in a lot of ways to maybe 212 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: every sport on Earth were not always the most inclusive, right, 213 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,439 Speaker 1: and so you had to be a certain type of person, 214 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 1: you had to look a certain way, you had to 215 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: behave a certain way, you had to dress a certain way. 216 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: You had to act a certain way, and Alyssa decided 217 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: to turn her back on the spot that she was 218 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 1: so very good at and so and so loved when 219 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: she was a teenager. I think at fifteen sixteen. 220 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 4: She retired at sixteen, which gives you an idea of 221 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 4: how controlled her life may have been. 222 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 3: And I think this gives a picture too. Let's be honest. 223 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 4: We're talking about gymnastics on ice here and on ice 224 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 4: as in of the ice Skating Variety. Let me just 225 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 4: clarify that for our younger listeners. But I do think 226 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:59,359 Speaker 4: there's a level of restriction, particularly with aesthetics around gymnastics. 227 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 4: It's clean, bun everything has to be right. And she 228 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 4: even said I was at an agent stage. I was like, 229 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 4: no one's gonna tell me what I was gonna do anymore. 230 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 4: No one was gonna tell me what I was gonna eat. 231 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 4: How I had to look and those restrictions as a teenager. 232 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 4: And she's one of five, one of five. My dad 233 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 4: had five kids via surrogate. 234 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a single dad because he's a single dad 235 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: because to quote him him, he turned forty and he 236 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: really wanted kids and he was like, okay, I've got 237 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: to go get them. And so yeah, she's one of 238 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: five she's got she's got an older sibling I think, 239 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: then her and then. 240 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 4: Triplets on your own. Yeah yeah, yeah, my dad's the impressive. 241 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: I know, so what an incredible family. 242 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: But she comes out, she returns to the sport, but 243 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: she's doing it her way and that's why she has 244 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: the halo bands or the raccoon hair. Every single season 245 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: she adds another bleached halo to her hair because she can. 246 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: Why not. And then also she's just incredible, like she's 247 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: so good. Gold medal winning good. 248 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 4: Because it was joy joy joy, and we use that 249 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 4: term so often when we referred to bought, particularly at 250 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 4: the Olympic level. But she went out there and she 251 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 4: was like I'd already won. There was only things to 252 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 4: gain from what I was doing here, and it just 253 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 4: radiated off her and the fact that not only she 254 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 4: did that, but then was the best in the world 255 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 4: at her Oh I know. And her coach actually spoke 256 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 4: and he was like, I remember the moment she came 257 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 4: to me and said, you know, Alyssa is saying I 258 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 4: want to come back to the sport, and he's like, 259 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 4: I went and got a bottle of wine and poured 260 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 4: myself a glass. She couldn't have one at that age. 261 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 4: And because she's what, she's not yet twenty one in 262 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 4: the States, younger And he said to her, year older now, 263 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 4: and she said, I'm nineteen. Because most people don't retire 264 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 4: and then decide to come back. 265 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 3: Well, you're still a teenager. 266 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 4: But it's the biggest nod to finding your bliss, following 267 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 4: your joy, doing things for you.

And then after 345 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: all of that, when she did win the gold and 346 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: then she had a p this conference and she made 347 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: me cry again because she's so stunning, so talented, so smart, 348 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: so beautiful. And then she paid the most beautiful tribute 349 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: to her grandmother, who sadly passed away like the night 350 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: before she was about to compete, and I was like, 351 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: this person cannot be real. 352 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 3: But also just how much you never know what people 353 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 3: are going through. 354 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: I don't know what they're going through. You do know 355 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: what they're you do not know what they are going through. 356 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: And on that wholesome, wholesome notes, Oh God, because the 357 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: Winter Olympics, I tell you what they gave us a lot. 358 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 3: We gave us a lot. 359 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: They gave us a lot. We must tell me, we 360 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: must because again in things that I have sent to 361 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: Jelmy NonStop all week, people might know I barely talk 362 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: about it on this podcast. I have a newfound love 363 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: of ice hockey, and so of course you bes believe 364 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: I've been watching the men's and the women's ice hockey 365 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: every second of the Winter Olympics. The women's team iconic. 366 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: I think it's the third time that they are champions, 367 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: Olympic champions. They won against Canada two one and overtime. 368 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: The men's team one against Canada two to one in overtime. 369 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: And I tell you what, I have never jumped on 370 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: a bandwagon faster than the men's US ice hockey team. 371 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: The stories within it sounds like fiction. It sounds like fiction. 372 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: So they beat Canada two to one in overtime. The 373 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: guy that scores the winning goal is a man named 374 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: Jack Hughes. Allegedly he potentially could be dating Tate McCray. 375 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: I'm going to put that to the side because this 376 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: podcast would be three hours, but just so we know, 377 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: you know that I know that we know that he 378 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: potentially could be dating Tate mcray. Anyway, his brother also 379 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: plays on the team, his sister plays on the women's teams. 380 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 3: Their mum was a champion. 381 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: His mom played on the women's team and is now 382 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: a member of staff on the women's team. So when 383 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: you think about ice hockey in the US, it's the 384 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: Hughes family that is who they are. Another heartwarming moment 385 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: when they won two years ago, very tragically, a team 386 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: member of the men's ice hockey team was killed by 387 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: a drunk driver. There is this gorgeous moment at the 388 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: end of the game. They bring out the kids of 389 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: their teammate. 390 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 3: On his second birthday. 391 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: On the one of the kid's second birthday, they bring 392 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: out his They get a team photo because they've won 393 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: for their former teammate and they've got the kids celebrated. 394 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: It's beautiful. 395 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 4: You could not At this point, I'm like, where's the doco? 396 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 4: We know how I feel about a sports doco. 397 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 3: Just is the doco? 398 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: Honestly, no PR team, the best PR Chris Kardashian could not. 399 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 2: Have made this any better. Okay, because this was what 400 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 2: fairy tales are all made of. 401 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: And then, oh, I tell you what, what the universe 402 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: giveth the universe can. 403 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 5: Take us away. 404 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: Because I was just sitting in my little glow of like, 405 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: oh god, you know, I have chosen a great sport 406 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: to get involved in. Maybe times are turning. We love hockey. 407 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: And then a video comes out of the US President 408 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: calling the US men's team to congratulate them on their winn. 409 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: I thought, that's great. Well that's it. I mean, you know, sure, 410 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 1: there's nothing abnormal about that. That's fine. Then proceeds to 411 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: invite them to the State of the Union, very fancy 412 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: address that he gives every single year.

Yeah, they've earned that, they've won the gold. 414 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 1: That's fine, and then proceeds to say the words now, 415 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: just so you know, I'll probably have to invite the 416 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: women's team. I'd get impeached another time if I didn't, 417 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: just so we're all away. And I thought, hmm, okay, 418 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: I've not loved that. 419 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 2: But that's okay.
