So you are going to have one.

So the 2026 Winter Olympics just wrapped up about 48 hours ago, and the last week of the games was pretty remarkable for the United States if you guys are following along, but par for the course.

Some liberals are literally having to consult their therapists on how to cope with their feelings about the Olympics.

And no, I am not joking.

Before we dive into this story, I want to tell you guys that I am doing another show at Zany's on March 1st.

So if you are in the Nashville area, the Tennessee area at large, come see the show.

It is super fun.

We basically just do a live version of the show.

You can find tickets at brettcooper.com.

If you want to see behind the scenes content and farm vlogs and butter that my mom and I are making in her kitchen, you can go to cooperconfidential.com.

and all of that content will be there.

Okay, deep breath, I made it through that.

All right, so there have been some pretty massive standouts in the last week of the Olympics, but possibly, I would say objectively, the most viral and most universally loved has been American skater Alyssa Liu having an incredible, just momentous comeback in winning gold in women's ice skating.

For a little backstory, in 2022, right after the Beijing Winter Olympics, Alyssa retired.

She was only 16 years old and she was one of the best female ice skaters in the world, but she said that she was burned out.

She had just lost her love of the sport.

But then two years later, when she was 18 years old, she called up her coaches and she said, you know what?

I am ready to come back.

But if she was gonna come back,

She was going to do it on her own terms.
