Every four years (two years if you care for winter sports) athletes from around the world come together to compete in sporting events at the Olympic Games. It’s a time when we care about such sports as swimming, track and field, gymnastics, and dressage. (Seriously, how many of us really care about these sports between Olympics??). Think of the Olympics as Friendship Games or Sportsfest but a million times bigger.
In this TFAL episode, the crew talks about the one and only Olympic Games! We discuss our memories of Olympics, the politics of rooting for Filipinos and Filipino Americans, and which sporting events should be offered at the Olympics so Filipinos would excel. Find out who no longer pays much attention to the Olympics, who roots for the underdog, and who knows what the actual Olympic theme music is. Sportsmanship!
