It is officially the Beijing 2022 Olympics! It has already been incredibly eventful, but we are going to start with the Team Event short programs and rhythm dance events. 

This episode was full of math as we tried to add everyone’s points together, and we talked about the fight for the podium spots between ROC, USA, and Japan, as well as the fight for that 5th FS qualifying spot between China and Georgia.

The Men warmed us up with notable skaters like Shoma Uno, Nathan Chen, and a special shoutout to Boyang Jin who took his first step onto home Olympic ice. Then in Ice Dance, we saw Hubbell/Donohue’s amazing Janet Jackson program, and Mom and Dad (Guignard/Fabbri)’s Michael Jackson program. In Pairs, Moore-Towers/Marinaro had a redemptive skate, Miura/Kihara made us cry with Hallelujah, and of course, Sui/Han had the skate of their lives. Finally, in the Women’s SP, it was so nice to see Eliska Brezinova here, as well as a phenomenal skate from Madeline Schizas.
