It's the final week of the World Games - Chengdu 2025! We're joined by John Moorhead, 2017 World Games athlete and current USA Fistball secretary, to get some insight as to how the athletes in Chengdu have enjoyed their time at the World Games. Jill and Alison also recap their week 2 watching, with thoughts on: Boules Breakdancing Cheerleading Gymnastics Drone Racing Flag Football Inline Skating Motosurf Billiards Racquetball Plus, we recap an amazingly short Closing Ceremony. It's been fun, Chengdu! We'll see the World Games again in 2029 in Karlsruhe, Germany! In other news, LA 2028 will offer naming rights to its venues. This is a huge shift in visible sponsorship at the Olympics. Is it the right move? The International Paralympic Committee recognized two new sports and will be holding board elections again in September. Also, Salt Lake City 2034 offered insights on ticket prices. If you're interested in volunteering for the Games, organizers offer some advice. We have a ton of news from TKFLASTAN, including Listener Tommy Phillips new book on Moscow 1980.
