Today on the show we discuss the Olympics! We get confused about the opening ceremony song, complain about MBCs atrocious ceremony coverage, the 88 summer Olympics and 18 winter Olympics as well. We talk about a few famous Korean Olympians like Queen Yuna. We talk about this year's preview and E-sports coming to international games. Finally we've got the Worst Persons segment, this time with family members! Tune in to hear about all the chaos the games brought to Korea!

GREEN RANGER TRIBUTE by Tha J-Squad

Teams move around South as often as they do in other countries. Sometimes, in some sports, they move more often than others. In today's episode we talk about the infamous Bucheon 1995 move and the factors behind it, the possible NC Dinos move, and moves in other sports.
