The Quicky Mamamia

With just over a month ’til the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, we’re been wondering… how do you even pull an event of that scale off?

We asked the President of the 2032 Brisbane Games Organising Committee how he’s preparing for the world to head down under.

Plus what happens when residents from a host nation aren’t happy with the games rollout? You might want to stick with bottled water during this episode.

A Sydney man has just become the first Aussie to be frozen, with the hopes of being thawed out when technology to do so eventually catches up.
