Olympic Snowboard, Paralympic Snowboard and Wheelchair Curling with Team USA

One last show before we head to Milano Cortina 2026! We talk with wheelchair curling's Steve Emt and para snowboarders Mike Schultz and Noah Elliot about their sports and prosthetics. Also, snowboarder Jaelin Kauf previews the 2026 Olympic course.

 

In Milano Cortina 2026 news, Hershey's is debuting chocolate gold medals. Milano Cortina will have fan zones across all venue clusters. And we learn about more Olympic Opening Ceremony performers. Also, the Organizing Committee has released an anniversary poster celebrating the Cortina d'Ampezzo 1956 Winter Olympics. You can buy it at:

• La Cooperativa di Cortina, Corso Italia 40 – Cortina d'Ampezzo
•  Libreria Sovilla, Piazza Silvestro Franceschi 11 – Cortina d'Ampezzo
• Milano Cortina 2026 online store

 

If you live in Australia's Gold Coast, Dreamworld has become the Australian Olympic Committee's official theme park. They're scheduling a watch party for February 17. Check their site for details.

 

Plus, we have news from Team Keep the Flame Alive, and we share our Patron bonuses for Milano Cortina 2026.
