    About this Episode

    Our immediate reactions after podium training!

    Our first look at Olympic All-Around Champions Simone Biles and Sunisa Lee! We went live Friday August 4th after senior women's podium training. Here's how to ask questions live. We discussed everything trained on the floor and what the athletes had to say afterward, including the squabble about petitioning to World Verification Camp.

    Here’s how our event coverage works:
    1. We give everyone the main headlines in the first 10-15 minutes.
    2. We then say goodbye and continue our conversation exclusively with our club members.
    3. What If I want to hear the rest of it? All you have to do is Join the Club.

    Live From 2024 National Team Camp

    Live From 2024 National Team Camp

    *UPDATE 

    We have edited our discussion of Jordan's floor routine story, not Jordan's quote. Why did we do this? Because there were too many misinterpretations of our discussion online.

    We have heard from USAG that staff are receiving threats. We find this abhorrent! To be crystal clear: The input Jordan received was not from a person within USAG, which we have confirmed. Jordan said “it wasn’t USA” and “not…USAG”. 

    USAG informed us they first learned of the suggested routine change when we shared the clip on the podcast. 

    In our commentary following Jordan’s statements, we were not trying to blame anyone indirectly involved. We were attempting to  highlight the lessons from the BLM movement. 

    Jordan is very excited about her new routine and we have no doubt she will bring all of herself into the routine when it’s performed. 

    We will share more thoughts on our shows Friday and Monday.

    • Key interview moments with Chellsie and Alicia about artistry and the Olympic selection procedures
