BONUS: A Trip to the US Olympic & Paralympic Museum

Opened in 2021, the US Olympic & Paralympic Museum located in Colorado Springs, Colorado is definitely a sight to see. It's the only place (in the US) where you can see all of the Olympic medals displayed from all of the Games, it is the only place you're going to find the legendary "Miracle on Ice" scoreboard displayed, and it's the only place where you yourself can race the great Jesse Owens. Featuring three special guests...Jonathan's wife Christa, his son Kai, and 3-time Paralympic Alpine Skier Tyler "TC" Carter.

BONUS: The POW Olympics of World War 2

Despite the cancellation of the 1940 and 1944 Olympic Games due to World War II, after the war, stories emerged of several unofficial Olympic Games being held in the most unlikely of places—German Prisoner of War camps. While few details survive, these “POW Olympics” prove the spirit of Olympism can survive even the darkest of times.

REPLAY - The Olympic Games of London 1908: Brits to the Rescue (Ad Free)

In anticipation of returning to London for the 1948 Summer Olympics in Season 3, we thought it would be fun to first revisit London 1908. Enjoy! What could be worse for the Olympic movement than the disastrous St. Louis Games? How about an actual natural disaster? In 1906, the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius disrupted the plans for the 1908 Olympiad to be hosted in Rome. With less than two years to put together a plan, London rides in to rescue the Games as host city – and sets a new standard for the possibilities of the Olympic Games. From flag protests to the addition of figure skating, London 1908 was truly one for the books.

episode The Olympic Story of Jesse Owens: Prejudice & Pride artwork

The Olympic Story of Jesse Owens: Prejudice & Pride

Born into a sharecropping family, Jesse Owens found his footing after moving to Ohio and growing up to become “The Buckeye Bullet.” After shattering records in college, he secures his place on the Olympic team where he will then shatter Nazi ideology at the 1936 Berlin Summer Games, setting a new gold standard for athletics. Despite his successes, he returns to America to face racial prejudice and discrimination far more difficult to break than any world record.
