NOTE: I love sports in general and the Olympic Games in particular. What follows is an observation of both, and not a criticism of either. This podcast and writing became a bit unwieldy for me as it (and I) emerged. Thanks for your indulgence.
Recommendation: If you didn’t see any of the Olympics, search for videos about some of the folks mentioned in the first paragraph under Current Olympics above.
Something to Consider: What are your thoughts on the commodification of (almost?) everything? Do I overstate it here? Understate it?
