#182: Simone Biles, Fashion Forecasting, This Way Up
It’s the final week of the Olympics, and Myf and Zan are blown away by the strength, vulnerability, and power of Simone Biles. Her decision to step back from competing in several events is the latest in a time where athletes are speaking out about the importance of protecting their mental health. Meanwhile a piece on how to forecast fashion in a pandemic confirms that this and every other industry is being turned on it’s head. And we’re banging on about a hopeful new TV show, and a riveting podcast.
