Episode 13: Golden Goals

It’s a golden episode! The guys recap the heart-stopping USA Olympic double-gold sweep, with both the men’s and women’s teams defeating Canada in dramatic 2-1 overtime thrillers. They celebrate the heroics of the goalies and Seattle Torrent captain Hilary Knight, whose clutch game-tying goal forced the son to cheer (very quietly!) while behind enemy lines in Canada. Back home, the son shares the excitement of a 5:00 AM wake-up call for the men’s final followed by his own league-clinching victory later that day. The duo also reflects on a tough tournament in Canada, discussing hard lessons about avoiding retaliatory penalties in the face of derogatory taunts. Speaking of lessons learned, they were disappointed in the U.S. men’s team’s behavior and hope the incident emphasizes the importance of championing women in sports and showing respect at every level.(Recorded 2/22/26)
