TOKYO OLYMPICS 2021 Discussion + A little F9 Review (SPOILERS)
Listen now
Description
We chat about the 2021 Olympic Games which were delayed by the pandemic. Was it worth the wait? How have the Aussies been faring so far?   Which was the best sporting moment so far? How good was the F bomb dropped by Kaylee McKeown after winning gold in the 200m backstroke? Also, how good was Dean Boxal's celebration after Ariarne Titmus won gold in the 200m freestyle final?   All that and more in this episode.   The 2020 Summer Olympics (Japanese: 2020年夏季オリンピック, Hepburn: Nisen Nijū-nen Kaki Orinpikku), officially the Games of the XXXII Olympiad (第三十二回オリンピック競技大会, Dai Sanjūni-kai Orinpikku Kyōgi Taikai) and branded as Tokyo 2020 (東京2020), is an international multi-sport event being held from 23 July to 8 August 2021 in Tokyo, Japan, with some preliminary events that began on 21 July.   Tokyo was selected as the host city during the 125th IOC Session in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on 7 September 2013.[3] Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the event was postponed to 2021 in March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the first such instance in the history of the Olympic Games (previous games had been cancelled but not rescheduled).[4] However, the event retains the Tokyo 2020 name for marketing and branding purposes.[5] It is being held largely behind closed doors with no public spectators permitted due to the declaration of a state of emergency.[b] The Summer Paralympics will be held between 24 August and 5 September 2021, 16 days after the completion of the Olympics.[6]   The 2020 Games are the fourth Olympic Games to be held in Japan, following the Tokyo 1964 (Summer), Sapporo 1972 (Winter), and Nagano 1998 (Winter) games.[c] Tokyo is the first city in Asia to hold the Summer Games twice. The 2020 Games are the second of three consecutive Olympics to be held in East Asia, following the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, and preceding the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China. The 2020 Games sees the introduction of new competitions as well as competitions that once were held but were subsequently removed. New ones include 3x3 basketball, freestyle BMX and mixed gender team events in a number of existing sports, as well as the return of madison cycling for men and an introduction of the same event for women. New IOC policies also allow the host organizing committee to add new sports to the Olympic program for just one Games. The disciplines added by the Japanese Olympic Committee are baseball and softball, karate, sport climbing, surfing, and skateboarding, the last four of which make their Olympic debuts.[7]   Bermuda and the Philippines won their first-ever Olympic gold medals.[8][9] San Marino and Turkmenistan won their first-ever Olympic medals.   We also do a little review on the 9th installment of the Fast and Furious Franchise, F9 (Spoiler alert)   FOR MORE   Instagram https://www.instagram.com/courtsideth...
