Four years after facing immense pressure at a home Games at Beijing 2022, Eileen Gu is evolved - and ready to tackle what she calls "my first second Olympics."

The freestyle skiing superstar sat down exclusively with Olympics.com ahead of her competing at Milano Cortina 2026, where she is looking for a clean sweep of golds after winning a pair of them four years ago: "There's no burden," she explained. "There is nothing to defend, right, like, 'Defending gold medalist?' No, I'm here to compete - just like everyone else."

Olympics.com reporter Andrew Binner joins host Nick McCarvel to discuss his Gu chat, and gives an update from snowy Livignio, where both freeski and snowboard are taking place. Binner also gives further insight on the status of snowboarding great, the three-time Canadian medallist Mark McMorris, after a scary crash.

Plus, Nick meets Olympic fans from around the world at the Opening Ceremony, and we give you a taste of one of the Olympics.com athlete meet and greet livestreams, the first of which featured 2014 Olympic team bronze medallist in figure skating, Gracie Gold.

Very accessible podcast, an enjoyable listen!

Podcasts are new to me so it was great to listen to something that was short enough to maintain my attention yet contained lots of interesting information. Added to that, Ed’s ability to throw in the ‘human interest’ type questions that made me smile!
