Milano Cortina 2026: Alpine Skiing Preview with Tom Kelly

Alpine skiing expert Tom Kelly joins us to preview the competition ahead of the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympics. We examine men's and women's downhill, super G, slalom and giant slalom races. We look at the men's and women's courses, why mixed team competition was dropped from this Games, and who could make the podium.   This show would not be possible without listener support.
