Just heard last night, told by a past Olympian, that the big wigs from all over, politicians, leaders... Get picked up in limo, stay in 5 star hotels, have great food. The athletes get crap food. One athlete they quoted said she got pasta with a terrible orange sauce that tasted foul. She said all that was available besides the orange/spaghetti was McDonald’s burgers, KFC, etc. Not healthy food for athletes. Those are junk food, fast food, snack food... not meals. Not healthy meals.

Ground Zero, Clyde Lewis talks with former Olympic gold medal skier, Vince Poscente. I listened to this last night. You have to be a member to get podcast. But it is WORTH IT! cheap membership.

I watched the men’s short program last night just watched about 5 skaters. I didn’t agree with whom won. That is all I watched, other than we were eating out the other day, and it was on tv. Downhill skiers. We used to ski every winter. Only time we flew up into the air, was accidental.

Heard a comedian, Jeff Allen, talking about getting hit in head by chair lift. He is so funny. He said he tried to turn his injury into insurance and they turned him down. Said he obviously had a pre-existing condition. He is an idiot. He was so funny. He has a way with words.

About time this gets exposed! better late than never. Several Bay Area companies, including AirBnB, Intel and Visa are among the greedy corporate hypocrites.

“The athletes get crap food. One athlete they quoted said she got pasta with a terrible orange sauce that tasted foul.”

Seems like a serious issue since the athletes need to be maintained in prime condition. Surprised that agreements on housing and food are not worked out beforehand.

I blame the countries that are supplying the athletes. Where are the lawyers when you need them?

Was that the show on Saturday which tortured us with Machine Gun Kelly’s musical performance?

the double-dealing of big businesses in the U.S.

that preach wokeness at home

yet still agreed to sponsor the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing

despite China’s continuing genocide against the Uyghurs.

China was just too big of a business opportunity to ignore for woke corporations in the U.S.

Coca-Cola Chairman and CEO James Quincey went so far as to release a video statement headlined, “Where We Stand on Social Justice.” He claimed that “diversity and inclusion are among our greatest strengths.” Does Coca-Cola’s “inclusion” exclude the Uyghurs?
