Summary

Hello! It's the podcast that isn't nearly athletic enough to eat authentic Italian food in a white sweatshirt. Today, Katie and the Casualties celebrate Alysa Liu, Paul Rothrock, and athletes finding inspiration post-Olympics, before briefly getting into most of the USA men's hockey team attending the State of the Union, the five who didn't, and the women being invited to celebrate with Flavor Flav in Las Vegas, AFTER already celebrating with Megan Thee Stallion over pasta in Italy. Megan is manifesting both an engagement and an EGOT; what are Katie and the team manifesting in 2026? Katie and the Casualties then get into Angels owner Arte Moreno saying that he believes winning is not a top priority for his fans, Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban saying his fans should embrace when they try to lose on purpose, NFL owners saying making players stop giving them bad grades, and none of it making sense. Fresh off the Olympics, Team USA luger Sophia Kirkby joins the show [47:03] to talk about representing the USA, her relationship with her luge partner, what makes a strong luger, dating at the Winter Olympics and being called "The Olympic Village's Most Eligible Bachelorette", going on a first date at a spa with a man who flew in from the UK just to say her, flirting via DM while waiting on an Olympic drug test, the much-reported Olympic condom shortage and the art of international condom collecting, her custom ceramic pins and her Amazon Handmade shop, Olympic lava cakes, Olympic apple juice, and drinks at the top of an Olympic mountain, rubbing elbows with Alysa Liu and Mikaela Shiffrin, what her future holds, and the one true difference between a luger and a bobsledder. Then, the team wraps with Nicolas Cage, Jeff Kent, buckets of coffee, and a memorable round of "Did Ya See THAT?"
