    Days 16,17 (Feb 25) - USA curling's golden moment, Ledecka's double, and a bizarre Closing Ceremony

    Days 16,17 (Feb 25) - USA curling's golden moment, Ledecka's double, and a bizarre Closing Ceremony

    It finally over, but not before some final excitment! Team USA wins a surprise gold in curling, and Germany loses a hockey heart-breaker to OAR. Ledecka completes a historic double gold, and a momentary loss of concentration cost an Austrian skier a silver medal.

    I also talk about the Closing Ceremonies, why Johnny, Tara, and Terry are good choices as hosts, and how I think the IOC missed an opportunity to promote another upcoming event.

    Day 15 (Feb 23) - Woe Canada, Zagitova reigns, Confusing new events

    Day 15 (Feb 23) - Woe Canada, Zagitova reigns, Confusing new events

    It was a rough day for our neighbors up north, who, despite winning a gold medal in ski cross, suffered losses in both men's hockey and curling. I talk about the free skate / conclusion of the ladies' figure skating competition. Plus, I scope out the major events coming up, including Team USA's Gold Medal Game in curling (10:15pm Pacific) and two new events I barely understand (speed skating mass start, alpine skiing team event).

    Day 14 (Feb 22) - More USA wins! Hockey, curling, Shiffrin, and Wise

    Day 14 (Feb 22) - More USA wins! Hockey, curling, Shiffrin, and Wise

    Team USA's good times continue, much to the chagrin of Team Canada. We take the gold in women's ice hockey over the 4-time defending champions in an incredible shootout, and our men's curling team upsets the three-time defending gold medalists from up north, earning their own shot at gold. The USA also picks up a gold and three silvers in ski and snowboard action, including a silver for Mikaela Shiffrin in alpine combined.

    I talk about all of this, as well as the event coming up today, including the ladies' figure skating free skate and the men's hockey semifinals.

    Day 13 (Feb 21) - USA! USA! Gold, silver, two bronzes, and a curling win, too!

    Day 13 (Feb 21) - USA! USA! Gold, silver, two bronzes, and a curling win, too!

    What a day!! USA women bring home a haul of medals with some gutsy, gutsy performances. History is made in cross-country skiing, AND the USA men's curling team qualifies for the medal rounds. In this episode, I cannot contain myself...and don't think I should.

    More action coming up today with the women's Alpine Combined, the women's hockey gold medal match, and the men's curling semifinals.

    Days 11, 12 (Feb 20) - A bonus bobsled gold, Virtue-Moir love, and clutch curling wins

    Days 11, 12 (Feb 20) - A bonus bobsled gold, Virtue-Moir love, and clutch curling wins

    After a day off for my birthday, I return with lots of results and quite a few opinions. I recap the Ice Dance competition, cover the extra gold medal in 2-man bobsled/bobsleigh, and do a deep dive on the current state of curling for Team USA and Team Canada.

    I also look ahead to the ladies' figure skating competition, the women's downhill, and the cross country team sprint (praying for Jessie Diggins and Kikkan Randall)
