If you fall in love with the world of figure skating every four
years, this episode is for you. Host Nick McCarvel and
fellow Olympics.com producer Lena Smirnova sit down to
discuss the biggest storylines in the sport ahead of February's
Winter Olympics at Milano Cortina 2026. And there's a lot of
them!

From the "Quad God" Ilia Malinin's dominance to the fascinating
story of 42-year-old Deanna Stellato Dudek to the surprise
comebacks of Olympic medallists and more, Nick and Lena bring
reporting and insights into the must-know stories ahead of the
Games. Lena also pulls the curtain back on
the Olympics.com series Ink on Blades, which dives into
the artistic process that Olympic programs go through before
being presented to the world.

Plus, hear from Malinin and fellow top American Isabeau Levito on
everything from how they package their programs to creating a
community of support among their fellow skaters.
