Olympic Memories and All-Star Experiments
Monday, 16 February, 2026
This week's show centers on the "Helmet of Memory" worn by Ukrainian skeleton rider Vladislav Heraskovich and the IOC's decision to ban it. The group explores the perceived hypocrisy of sporting bodies that allow certain displays while prohibiting others, using historical examples from Jesse Owens to Colin Kaepernick to frame the current debate over political speech in competition. Shifting gears to the hardwood, the hosts analyze the NBA's attempt to revitalize the All-Star Game with a multi-team, international-themed format. They highlight standouts like Kawhi Leonard and Anthony Edwards, but don't hold back on their criticism of the dunk contest's over-reliance on props. The episode wraps with a look at the "punchable faces" of the week and a heartfelt tribute to former NFL lineman Trey Johnson.
