In this episode, Ms. Maureen Sweeney, Deputy Chief of the Interpreting Staff of the Tokyo Summer Olympics 2020, takes the listeners on a behind-the-scenes tour of the interpreter programs at the Olympics. She talks to the audience about how the quintessential International sports event engages and interacts with linguists in this largely remote working environment that we are seeing as the new normal, and how she and her team have been creatively responding to the ever-fluid situation.
