Summary

Jason sets aside all the other sports stories of the day — and totes out his American flag — to drill into the Simone Biles drama. Negatively comparing the Olympic gymnast to legends such as Jesse Owens, Joe Louis, Mary Lou Retton, and Kerri Strug, Jason and Jimmy lament the wussification of our country. How did Kaepernick, LeBron, Sha’Carri Richardson, and the new USA basketball team pave the way for this embarrassment? How does Whitlock incorporate the Capitol riot and Frederick Douglass into this special, passion-filled episode? Today's Sponsor: Go to https://Built.com and try my personal favorite flavor, orange!
