Episode Description

This podcast is normally a place to talk movies and streaming shows, but the Olympics provided their own form of drama during the two weeks of the Games that just concluded.

You had the 'Quad God' Ilia Malinin falling short of gold. There were the ice dancers — and "Glitter & Gold" stars — Madison Chock and Evan Bates, who took silver following team gold. And there was also Eileen Gu, the American-born freestyle skier competing for China and a major social media influencer.

In this week's episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz talk about the Olympics, their favorite moments, and the Netflix miniseries "Glitter & Gold," which takes viewers behind the scenes and into the world of ice dancing.

Miller also shares some of the other shows he's been watching, such as "The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins" with Tracy Morgan and Daniel Radcliffe, the return of "Scrubs" with Zach Braff, season 3 of "The Night Agent" with Gabriel Basso, and season 2 of "Paradise" starring Sterling K. Brown.

Finally, we chat about the full trailer of "The Mandalorian & Grogu," which marks are return to theaters for "Star Wars" when it debuts on May 22.
