This is soooo interesting and a new perspective

How cool! Came across this by accident. Love Brooke. So nice to expose CF/Brook to another universe of fitness!! ]

<3 Alex !

Das ist ne welt sache. Aber wenn alle sitzen bleiben . Steigt auch keiner aus .

Those seats are so uncomfortable if you're over 6'. While I'm not in a hurry to get off the plane I do try to stand as quickly as I can.

Caeleb was the absolute role model for my son while I was writing The Ascent, and this song came to life as well. Hear it loud. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHW0anWIis6HbNU

Great interview, as always! Katie - you’ve mentioned Steph Rice a few times on the pod and think it would be so cool to do a “rivals” podcast interviewing her (and maybe her interviewing you a little too!) It would be fascinating to see two former rivals’ perceptions of each other and how you’ve become friends since.

Control your emotions, don't ever let your emotions controls you. :)

Love your vidoes!!

I love see mollie on relays , Greetings from Sydney Australia

Mollie. Ok. Now that you have gone through and have transitioned from teenager into adulthood. You are at your peak. Life awaits! (it is also true that you have learned so much and have so much to learn. A 71 year old Steve has a lot to learn too.) Now. Mollie is a perfectionist of perfectionists.(This can be the best gift Mollie has.) And she thrives when she's under team setting where the team has her back. I am going to be very honest, tenacious is not Mollie's innate trait. It is a learned trait. And she can be even more tenacious than someone who is innately tenacious. /Sorry sorry. Mollie is a tenacious person; It is something she is born with. There are two types of tenacious. Tenacious[persistence] Tenacious[determination]. Mollie leans more towards the first one. 👍/ If Mollie can find someone who is the headstrong of headstrongs and share the perfectionistic trait that she has; who is willing to give her full support. The sky is the limit for this young lady. Katie, Missy. This is a fantastic episode. 👍

Great interview! Really enjoyed it:)

I love seeing mollie here

Mollie is so inpiring person

Mollie you are amizing person

Fantastic interview, great job!

What an amazing way to spend my Wednesday afternoon listening to this podcast! It was so inspiring, Mollie is such an amazing person, not only an Olympic and world champion and a world record holder! I'm Italian and I felt such an intense emotion watching to the first 200m freestyle Olympic event last summer without our queen Federica Pellegrini since 2004. I cheered for Mollie and I was so happy about her achievement and about Federica giving her the gold medal. But now that I've heard this podcast, I'm happier than before because I didn't know it was a sort of "double gold" for Mollie. She won the race but she also won her battle against that anxiety which didn't even let her sleep during the Olympic trials. She deserves the best! What an amazing soul she has 🥹 Last but not least, THANK YOU Missy and Katie from the bottom of my heart because I really love the way you can comunicate with every guest and let us understand what is behind every achievement, even the hardest things and moments every athlet has to get through. You both are amazing 🫶🏻

I thank the three of you for this very funny interview !

Missy, I have a similar pullover as you, my kids call it my snowman outfit, which I fully embrace.

Man, everything I've heard about Bob's handling of the move sounds awful.

McKenzie Coan. Hands down. A very strong woman. She has gone through a lot. She didn't give up. She did the opposite. She has learned and matured. She is confident and happy. I can see she how committed and focused she is. It's also true she loves to engage and talk. I can see that. Haha. And I believe she has done the best for herself. And hands down, legs down, has paid off. A lovely girl. Thank you McKenzie.

It is not uncommon, the post-Olympic depression. I hope future Champions should be aware of this.(make sure it doesn't happen) Because if they know they are going to have mental illness and be trapped in Depression; they will not want to be Olympic/Paralympic champion.

Yes man swimming is pretty small we actually had another swimmer to come out for Suriname in the last Olympics but he went to the Netherlands instead 😢 he couldve been the next Anthony Nesty

How many medals did the US won under his coaching last summer?

You are the best 💯

You should try and get Paige Madden on and also would love to hear from Shaine Casas.

I actually competed in the same summer league as McKenzie and raced her brother throughout my entire childhood. I almost teared up when she mentioned how some lady questioned her swimming abilities because every summer I remember before her races you could hear people murmur and at times even underestimate her. Funny enough, she was consistently still beating other swimmers who didn't have disabilities... What is most impressive through all of this is how she carried herself. She was so sincere and always had a smile on her face no matter what people may have thought of her. I still remember talking to her at one meet and she was the kindest, most genuine person (and also funny lol). I'm so glad to see the success she's accomplished, huge fan.

I recognized Jones at one of the food lines in the Paris Olympic pool and he was such an approachable, down to earth figure. He took time to talk about swimming and a picture, it meant a lot - go, Cullen!

He needs to retire , and his dad is not a proper coach, he’s an anchor

I have watched so many of your podcasts and each one is so unique and powerful but hearing life from McKenzie’s perspective is just so touching and beautiful. I think about all the times I have had a rough practice simply out of being exhausted but this amazing woman had so many things thrown at her yet continued to push/follow her dreams and continues to inspire others. Beautiful podcast!

can you do one witrh ilona maher?

wheres the new dressel one!!

love this keep it up

*Sooooo you got 14yos running around with grown men, and shes fine with this, tells me enough about the Olympics, 14 drinking is also wild. But its dramatized...*

Where do you guys get the old school US olympics team shirts?

Ms. Ledecky is an amazing woman. Wow vs

That’s really cool, he probably has to turn his head the exact same way at the right speed every time to get that bubble to stay there long enough to inhale it. This dude is one smart mofo

So brave and so strong. No wonder she’s one of the best.

Great episode. Thank you for all that you share. Your vulnerability is very impactful.

She is SO cool!!!

Thank you Unfiltered Waters. It is very true. Missy say giving back something like that. Oh Katie beat Kristy Coventry leh. I didn't know that. Haha. Ya, this place is a perfect opportunity for athletes-swimmers to let their supporters, friends, family, team, viewers see and hear them. In depth. I have seen 4 episodes so far. 🤭 (Summer, Alex, Crissy, Missy&Katie) 👍

This is why great swimmers always say "stay in my own lane" "swim my own race". She DQed bc she was peeking the competition. Still think she could have apologized to Kate for shrugging off her hug after the race. I don't know why but I can't unsee that.

Congratulations! Feel like I’ve watched you two grow up on KZbin. Love the show. 🌟

I love both of you! Thank you for brightening 2024, which was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year for me personally. Thanks also for posting your podcasts on Wed, because it is my day off!😄

You two don’t know how good you are. Summer’s podcast was awesome but so was Regan Smith’s and Alex Walsh’s. Would love it if you had some way to contact you.

Happy New Year to the both of you! 🎉🎉

Thanks for sharing this. It really helps me in my masters swimming experience. 💪 🏊

I love everything about this response to such a rough life event. We love this queen ❤
