Fall is in the air, so our resident witch is getting her caldron out and preparing for snowboarding season. Sarah is willing to sacrifice a literal finger if that means not missing another powder season. (She's unwell.) Susie tells us about a 30 for 30 called Stolen Gold about an intellectually disabled paralympic basketball team that won the gold by having almost the entire team fake the disability. We learn how it affected the lives of the people who won fair and square. We discuss the complexities of "fairness" in sports and the consequences it has for trans athletes (such as the athlete in the documentary Mack Wrestles). We talk about a woman who donated her body to science to create a legacy, but then placed a list of demands on the scientists for 15 years. Susie describes the documentary The Contestant about a Japanese reality tv show that tortured its star for 15 months and humiliated him in front of the country of Japan. Plus, an athlete who was injured due to a "hefty sneeze" inspired us to learn about some other surprising injuries endured by athletes.
