Summary

Madeline and Charlotte are back with another jam-packed episode of messy sports gossip and Olympic drama. But first, a few updates on the big NBA fight and a shoutout to the Commanders for their gesture to the decimated Washington Post. Jordon Hudson wore a totally wild tee-shirt that took a shot at Patriots owner Robert Kraft, and a new video of Tom Brady and Alix Earle from Super Bowl week just dropped.

Now, Olympics! Speedskater Jordan Stolz broke an Olympic record in the 1,000-meter and won gold for the US. Something is up with biathlon: before the Olympics, French biathlete Julia Simon was found guilty of theft and credit card fraud after admitting to using her teammate’s credit card. Norwegian biathlete Sturla Laegreid admitted he cheated on his ex and tried to get her back on live television. There are several reasons why this story gets worse. Plus: A history of the biathlon!

Brown’s star Myles Garrett was spotted in Italy cheering on his girlfriend, Chloe Kim. Team USA hockey beat Canada, and Laila Edwards made history as the first Black woman to represent the U.S. women’s hockey team at the Olympics. Goalie Aaerin Frankel has an entire Instagram dedicated to reviewing caesar salads, and Haley Winn’s brothers are showing up to support in matching outfits. Ilia Malinin, the Quad God, put on a great performance in the men’s short program, and Cory Thiesse became first American woman to win a curling medal.
