Sarah and producer Alex join the show from the bowels of the Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena after Team USA's gold medal win over Canada. They share the build-up, the nerves, the goals, the celebrations and the reactions from all your favorite players. What was Hilary Knight thinking when she tied the game? What should Megan Keller's OT goal be called? Is this the last we'll see of Knight vs. Marie-Phillip Poulin? Plus, Alysa Liu is golden, guidance from a GOAT, and all good things must come to an end.

Sarah and producer Alex check in with the greatest skier of all time and newly minted gold medalist Mikaela Shiffrin to talk about ending her Olympic medal drought with a massive, ass-kicking win in Wednesday's slalom. Mikaela discusses winning without her father, wishing Average Joes understood alpine skiing better, and how the margins of victory in her sport make stringing together victories so tough. Plus, an exciting en-gay-gement, top five gasps, U.S. v. Canada hockey, and what do you call the final minutes of the 11th hour?

Today’s show takes us to the curling sheet in Cortina, where you'll get a Curling 101 lesson from Sarah, hear from the Peterson sisters after Team USA's win over Denmark, and learn about hog lines, buttons and "rocking the ice." Then: Poles, pockets, and rock journals! You sent us on missions and we did on-the-ground reporting to get you the answers you're looking for. Plus, a retirement, a moonwalking mister, and NBC's coverage of women's hockey leaves something to be desired.

The most interesting woman at the Olympics, U.S. luger Sophia Kirkby, sits down with Sarah in Cortina to discuss her luge origin story, making her own pins to trade at the Games, carrying her dad’s memory with her when she competes, and proclaiming herself the most eligible bachelorette in the Olympic Village (we get all the tea on her many dates!). Plus, hear from bobsledder Elana Meyers Taylor after her gold medal win and get a lesson in sliding sports from Ken Childs. And Stewie makes a statement, talking to strangers, and a hockey choose-your-own adventure.
