Show Notes
We spent the past weekend in Atlanta at the annual Olympin Olympic collectors and pin traders show. We had a fun time catching up with other collectors, pin traders, TKFLASTANIs, and--best of all--meeting some listeners!
This was also Alison's first trip to Atlanta, so we had to do a little Olympic sightseeing. Nicholas from Olympic Rings and Other Things was kind enough to show us around!
We also have a ton of news from upcoming Games!
Milan-Cortina 2026 has released the pictograms and look of the Games, which they call the Vibes. Mascots Milo and Tina are also unveiling their (adorable) sport poses on social media every day this month.
Brisbane 2032 is in a bit of a bind, with several venue projects already over budget. The new Liberal National Party is reviewing the situation.
Also, the Association of National Olympic Committees cut a deal to help small NOCs outfit their athletes for Games through 2032.
In TKFLASTAN news, we have updates from:
- Track cyclist Mandy Marquardt
- Former high jumper Erin Shean--learn more about her new coaching program here
- Author Andrew Maraniss--he'll be leading a panel at Books by the Banks in Cincinnati
