Paris Olympics 2024: Day 4 Wrap

Medallica: Minnows vs The World

BONSOIR FROM THE PUB STADIUM WITH NO BEER!

We’re sober as judges due to a bizarrely archaic rule in Paris that means you can’t have a coldie and support your country. And while that’s annoying for us, it’s doubly annoying for the Aussie women competing in the Rugby 7s. We rip into this terrible piece of public policy as we melt into our chairs in the French heat and endure the doubly French refusal to provide air conditioning anywhere.

The list of terrible experiences continue in Apocalympics Now, with the most insane sponsor agreement in existence and a toxic river system we wouldn’t trust fish to swim in, let alone humans.

Minnow Watch is marred by IOC corruption but is leveled out by some great news out of Central America.

All that and more in today’s ep. Wrap your listening gear around it, and once you've had your daily minnow fill, dive in to grab yourself a pair of Carrera glasses with a 35% discount at au.carreraworld.com/discount/Medallica and visit www.gusandrig.biz to consider becoming a citizen of The People's Republic of Riggustan and supporting our bid to host the 2036 Olympics in Riggustan.
