We’re talking World Championships draw and training camp upgrades, the new NCAA scoring changes, Nemour‘s massive 15.650 UB composition, why so many more men qualify to U.S. Nationals, and what the LA 2028 volunteer process might look like. Plus, your GGMB friendship stories, “America doesn’t have old stuff” rage-o-meter, strategic designs for leg form, the history and looming shortage of U.S. Brevet judges, fixing Claire Pease’s bars routine, and—somehow—a deep theological analysis of Flashdance.
Our weekly, live Q&A show, where we answer your questions and even talk about non-gymnastics life sometimes. Here’s how to ask questions live.
