Episode 593 - Stockholm 1912 Games Review
from Off The Podium - An Olympics Podcast · host Ben Waterworth, Colin Hilding & Jamie Lyko
It's time to get all Swedish up in here as we bring back another classic GAMES REVIEW by heading back to the year a certain ship sank, a certain cookie was invented and a certain US President was no longer in control as we look at the Stockholm 1912 Olympics! Why were these Games so groundbreaking for the modern Olympics? Are we excited to talk about the icon that is Jim Thorpe? What about super long wrestling matches that are probably still going? How about groundbreaking female swimmers from Australia? Or actual swimmers from Canada who apparently were well ahead of their time? Or most importantly, the debut of ART COMPETITIONS! There's a lot to get to and unpack in true OTP style, so get your ABBA playlist ready, assemble your IKEA furniture and bring along any other Swedish stereotypes you want as we deliver one hell of an episode!
