Heads up! We have a bonus, extra mini-episode this week because we really need to talk about the Department of Justice. 

GYMTERNET NEWS

  • The Wall Street Journal and OC Register report that the Department of Justice is investigating sexual abuse claims AND financial and business misconduct within Olympic organizations
    • Jessica has never been more excited about anything, ever
    • Steve Penny, endorsement deals, and the post-Olympic tour. MMMM HMMM.
