And I should note that we were recording this on Wednesday morning, and it's probable that some amazing new things will happen by the time people hear this.

We already heard this morning that Michaela Schifrin won gold in the slalom, so her drought is over.

Esau, why don't you start?

Oh, my goodness.

Kelly, give us a superlative.

Just to add a little context, Penisgate is, of course, about ski jumping and whether there was too much fabric in the sensitive areas of some of the competitors, which would give them a little bit of extra lift.

Sasha, do you have any superlatives for us?

Yeah, totally.

Oh my goodness, no!

Yeah, so a lot of gratitude we're hearing from the men's skaters.

Kelly, you mentioned Ilya Malinin, the quad god.

The quad god.

You know, if your household was anything like mine, your four-year-old daughter screamed quad god every time he appeared on screen, you know, in a promo, in an ad, anytime.

So pretty much constantly.

And expectations for Malinin were so high that it would have been hard to meet him, even for the best of the best.

But...

It's hard not to feel for him.

You know, did he have a bad night?

Was he unprepared mentally?

It just sort of seems like there's something about Olympics competitions that makes the stakes feel higher than others, right?
