The latest and most glorious season of the Olympipod has returned! And what a return – Ruth carries an injury into the recording, and has mislayed her notes. Chris brings facts and a chance meeting with an anti-doping officer. There's flops, Swedish beer bans, dislocated knees, and civil rights protests. And just how far can a tortoise jump? Not as far as a man.
Welcome back, to the Olympipod.
-
With just 504 short days left until the Opening Ceremony of the 33rd Olympiad, Ruth and Chris reflect on the tickets they've already nabbed, and whether they can fit surfing into their schedules. Also! Chris thinks it's a good idea to review each and every Paris Olympic Pictogram! It makes truly riveting listening. Play along on the Paris Pictogram page.

THE OLYMPIPOD IS BACK! After an unannounced and unexpected 10-month haitus, Ruth and Chris have months of out-dated news, misremembered facts, and vague recollections of previously strongly-held beliefs to catch up on.
Will an obstacle course be punched in Paris? Should you arm roller police? How many events could you fit in a pool?
All this and more in our second ever Intercalated Olympipod.
-
Delivering yesterday's news, today! Also huge pretzels, curling, and ice tug-of-war.
-
Statements are retracted about, curling is curled, and Chris runs to catch a train.
-
She's back from audio quarantine and now Ruth has opinions about ice hockey and Chris's professional skiing career. Also - what makes a Bøathlon a Bøathlon?
-
Beijing 2022 is officially the most Olympipod-y of any Winter Olympics.
The scandals keep on rolling, and the characters keep on being characters.
Also, Ruth and Chris invent some new sports!
-
A day later than planned, but still incredibly relevant.
Especially as the Olympipod remains the only podcast brave enough to discuss Lugenga.
-
Are there too few people on a curling team? Or too many?
How many people could you pile on a luge?
Does Ruth have covid?
It must be another Olympipod bonus.
-
Day 4 of the Beijing Winter Olympics is drawing to a close, but Ruth and Chris are here to keep you up-to-date on some of the latest - and late - stories from the slopes, as well as some "live" commentary on the eagerly anticipated Group B clash in the women's ice hockey between Sweden and Denmark.
-
Later than expected due to an unanticipated SPILL! in the recording room, the Olympipod is back. Canada had a great day. Flags did not. People jumped off big hills, and Ruth and Chris question the wisdom of excluding demonstration events from the Winter Games.
-
No one could have predicted it... The Olympipod is back for day 2 of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games!
New Zealand made history with their first winter gold, the Norwegians were just their asses, and Ruth and Chris wonder if road bowling has made it to Australia. If not, why not?
-
Beijing 2022 is upon us and the Olympipod is back! And we're asking all the important questions. When is a cauldron not a cauldron? What makes a Moose Biathlon a Moose Biathlon? What kind of oil did American Samoa's flagbearer use to protect him from the cold?
We also get round to talking about some sport.
-
Despite last week's predictions that we would surely find ourselves in Liverpool for 1948... we're back in St Moritz! And there's more controversy than you can throw an icestock at. Shootings, spills, a controversial film - it has it all.
-
Not even Covid can keep Chris down as the Winter Olympipod breathlessly - more so than usual - takes a deepish dive into Garmisch-Partenkirchen 1936. There's beer gardens aplenty, a ballet, and - of course - even more spills. Plus: Liechtenstein gets its first mention!
-
More bobsleigh spills than you can shake a stick at, speed skating drama and dogs as the Winter Olympics heads to the USA for the first time.
-
Bobsleigh returns to its ancestral homeland, horses pull skis, and Canada dominates on the water polo pool. Welcome to the slushy fields of St Moritz, 1928.
-
Ruth and Chris whoosh back into your ears and brings you all the way back to the slopes of Chamonix for the very first Winter Olympipod. And this season looks like it will be an exciting one, with nordic cold shoulders, controversies on the rink, and a real-time discovery on the origins of the bobsled.
-
Two weeks after the Games concluded, Ruth and Chris sat down to talk about the most memorable moments of Tokyo 2020ne. And two weeks after that... we published our musings for all to hear! We revisit the very best and the very worst people and stories, and even give a little teaser as to what's to come over the next few months for the Olympipod
-
It's over! It's all over! Tokyo 2020 is over! Ruth and Chris attempt to struggle through their emotions and talk about giant motorised baseball mitts, marathon mischief, large moths, and much much more.
