About this episode
The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics are officially open! Jill was able to go to the Opening Ceremony, and she shares details you didn't get to see on TV, while Alison tells Jill about some of the stuff she missed by not watching it on TV. The fireworks were stellar, the details incredible, but what they did with the Olympic flame? We have thoughts.
Today also had some competitions, so we've got updates from:
- Curling - Mixed Doubles
- Figure Skating - Team Event
- Ice Hockey - Women's tournament
Plus an update on TKFLASTANI Brianna Decker and who to look for tomorrow!
Red Envelope campaign!
this show does cost money to produce, and while our listeners have been extremely generous in supporting us through the Kickstarter campaign that got us to Beijing and also through Patreon patronage, we're coming up on 2 ½ years until another Olympics, so to celebrate the Lunar New Year, we're asking for donations of at least $8 to help us get through to Paris 2024. Go to flamealivepod.com/support to donate.
