概要

Welcome to The Games! We take an in-depth look at each modern Olympiad, Summer and Winter, from 1896 to the present day. Each season, we focus on five areas for that particular Olympiad: The Road to The Games, The Sports of The Games, The Competitors in The Games, The Politics of The Games, and The Effects of The Games.


Get ready to be inspired by the Olympic Spirit, to be astonished at what the human body can do, and to be amazed that these Games have survived this long.


Happy learning!

    1896: The Sports of The Games
    2021/06/09

    A super-sized episode covering the events and results of the 1896 Athens Games. We'll look at some of the sports of the ancient Games and we'll learn about the changes the IOC made to modernized the Games. We'll spend some time in the stadium for the 100m race, in the Zappeion for fencing bouts, in the Velodrome for cycling, and on the streets of Greece for the marathon. One athlete's will to live overcomes his desire to win, another athlete gets disqualified, and a spectator becomes an Olympic champion. All this and more in the second episode of The Games!
