The following podcast is a deer media production.

I'm Michelle Kwan.

In 1996, the world was in the midst of a massive cultural movement that saw women finally taking center stage.

Nowhere was this shift more apparent than at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta.

This audience was the loudest thing I have ever heard in my life.

The noise everybody's cheering and we see all these USA flags.

It was the most important summer in women's sports history and team after team after team,

the US women kept winning.

Basketball soccer, softball gymnastics.

I just said give me mine, like give me mine.

Join me for deer medias Summer of Gold presented by Together.

Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Bonjour.

I gotta tell you something.

Andrew encroached on the second leg of my solo Paris trip and we would walk into a shop and

he'd go bon je. And I'm like can I cut your dick off and put it into a foie gras patte and have it

with the baguette because like you're not bamboozling anybody.

It's like when you go to a canteen and you're like I'll have the incalada's roja.

And I'm like you're a white girl from the valley.

Let's not culturally appropriate.

You know what I'm saying?

Bon je, like shut the fuck up and die in a fiery, fiery car crash.
