Now that SLC has officially been named the preferred host for the 2034 Games, Ali tells producer Emily Means the story of the Hoberman Arch. Read journalist Hunter S. Thompson’s take on the 2002 Olympics. What is your Hoberman Arch? Email us at [email protected] or leave a voicemail at 801-203-0137. This episode originally aired on Sept. 20, 2023.
