This week, millions of Australians have tuned in to watch the Swimming Australia trials, as athletes compete for a spot on the Aussie Olympic and Paralympic teams. There have been record-breaking swims, inspiring returns to form, and outpourings of emotion from the stands and the pool.

But we’ve also seen disappointments — moments where a swimmer may have won their final but fell short of the Olympic qualification time set by Swimming Australia. In today's podcast, we look at why Australia is so good at swimming, and why the sport's national governing body sets the Olympic qualifying bar so high.
Hosts: Billi FitzSimons and Sam Koslowski
Audio producer: Annabelle Nicol
