Dr. Yoav Dubinsky on University of Oregon's Olympic Studies Hub
About this episode
If you've ever been interested in studying the Olympics and the Olympic Movement, this is the episode for you! We're talking with Dr. Yoav Dubinsky, professor of sports business at the University of Oregon. Dr. Dubinsky is also the operational director of the university's new Olympic Studies Hub.
We talk with Yoav about the Olympic Studies Hub, why it's important to study the Olympics, and--because Yoav is from Israel--the Israeli perspective on the Games.
The University of Oregon Olympic Studies Hub is having an Olympic Studies Week on May 12-18, 2025. It includes events for students, faculty and the general public. Find out more information at the event website:

We also have news from Milano-Cortina 2026, including more curling quotas, hospitality house news, and ticket purchasing woes.
Plus, one country is already squaring away their hospitality house plans for LA 2028.
We also have lots of news from Team Keep the Flame Alive--find out who's competing, who's opening up a business line, and who's having babies!
