  • Nemour was training at World Championships Center aka Simone's gym last week with her French coach
  • Footage from Mary Lou Retton's DUI arrest was released
ELITE SEASON IS WARMING UP: What updates to the 2025-2028 Code of Points should I know about?
  • Overall, there weren't too many changes to this quad's edition of the Code of Points. Was that intentional?
  • Our favorite and not-so-favorite parts about this new Code, and why we need to spend the entire episode talking about the face sketches of the gymnasts doing wolf turns in the table of elements
  • Why Jessica thinks the beam code is perfect and Spencer doesn't
  • The big floor shakeup that is killing all of our double-arabian half-out dreams
  • How we can tell Sugihara Aiko did her homework and read the new Code of Points
  • Changes to the FIG's artistry checklist: body posture, expressive engagement, and the "background music" deduction
  • The "we care about your ligaments" rule on bars
  • Why Karina Schoenmaier probably loves the new 0.2 bonus for vaults that have different post-flight directions
MINI COMMISSION: THE BEST GYMNASTS THE WORLD HAS NEVER KNOWN
  • This week's Mini Commission is from our Fantasy Winner, Hailey Sen on the best gymnasts the world has never known. How many incredible gymnasts never made it to Worlds or the Olympics due to wrong timing, ill-timed injuries, or lack of national support and political issues?
  • Hali Sheriff had some great skills for her era (Jessica narrated the short doc on Hali, the full documentary is now out)
  • JAY JAY MARSHALL
  • If you haven't seen this floor routine from Elizabeth (Liz) Reid, you need to watch it right now
  • That time London Phillips did a Biles I back in 2005
  • Shantessa Pama and her triple-back dismount off bars
  • Why so many of us are still crying about Yesenia Ferrera and how she could've been the star of Cuban gymnastics
  • All of the Chinese beamers that could have become World Champions
UP NEXT: BONUS PODCASTS MERCH
