There are few cultural events that grasp the world’s attention as much of The Olympics. Regardless of what might be going on politically in the world, The Olympics is largely seen as a globally unifying moment, once every four summers, and once every four winters. But what is it that captivates so many people to turn on their televisions and tune into Olympics events? Is it the love of competition? The quest for glory? Robin Mednick, co-editor of the book 'Heroes in Our Midst', joins the podcast to shed insight on the stories behind the Olympians.
