Episode 19: Paris, 1924 pt. 1: Second to None

Olympic Size Podcast

Once again, we return to Paris. This time, the welcome is a little warmer. They even invented the Olympic Village! Well, warmer for the Olympics in general if not the Americans. Just ask the rugby team how friendly the crowd was. Along the way we meet a survivor of the Titanic, a gold medalist who takes a bullet, a member of the shooting team who took a break from his massive fraud trial to go compete, a boxer who thought he was playing Hungry Hungry Hippos, and some of the most intense judging of any event ever.
