Episode 89 – The Olympics

In this episode, Andy and Roger take a deep dive into the 2024 Paris Olympics, starting with a critique of the opening ceremony and its various missteps, including the rain-soaked festivities and out-of-sync performances. They reflect on the cultural significance of the Olympics, comparing them to past events like the Sydney and Beijing games. The conversation then shifts to the broader experience of the Olympics, touching on the highs and lows of Australia’s performance and the challenges faced by athletes under intense public scrutiny. Andy and Roger dive into the cultural phenomenon of B-Girl Raygun's infamous breakdancing performance and discuss the public reaction to her controversial routine, which became a global sensation for all the wrong reasons. But before all of this, Andy reveals he is facing an existential crisis, and pushes back against the notion that there is any ‘middle’ when it comes to Donald Trump.
