This week, Matt Amos, Chet Sears and Troy Trussell cover the 2020 Tokyo Olympics as only they can, practically and realistically. We talk Simone Biles & rule changes, USA Basketball needing a shake-up, the gold-medal dominance of USA shooters, judges scoring sports creates more room for error and corruption. In our Top 3 segment, we talk about our favorite family movies. In that discussion, Troy has a spit-take, and we talk about the proper term for passing gas. Troy closes out the episode with our "Good Word" segment that comes from a quote from the Fellowship of the Rings.
