This week on the pod we welcome back double Olympic medalist and former World Champion Kate Howey to talk about Canada's dilemma at -57kg.
After a cycle where both athletes were consistently at the top of the world rankings Jessica Klimkait got the selection nod over Christa Deguchi for the Tokyo Olympics after winning her first world title. She justified the selection by winning Bronze at the Games. 3 years later with both athletes still at the top of the ranking Canadian selectors are facing the same decision, and Kate stepped in to give her thoughts on what will go into that decision.
