Episode 152: Oh, Oh, Oh Olympics
We've been Olympic fans since Peggy Fleming's golden moment in 1964—and that love is still going strong! In this fun, wide-ranging episode, Jean admits she's officially hooked on Instagram Reels and shares one unforgettable clip featuring "O Canada" in a most unexpected (and delightful) way. Should it be played at the Olympics? She thinks so.
Meanwhile, Jean's Other Half is eyeing Tai Chi—could this be the start of an Olympic training montage? Jean also wanders (happily) into Ambrosia Salad territory before the torch is passed to Laura and the Winter Olympics.Laura brings the serious enthusiasm: figure skating favorites, top Team USA athletes, and a fascinating new sport—SkiMo. Speed skating also gets its due, including Laura's own kitchen-length practice sessions (performed in socks, naturally). Join us for Olympic nostalgia, curiosity, and plenty of laughs as we settle in for the next two weeks!
