About this episode

This week Simone Biles dropped out of competing for US gymnastics in the Olympics this week due to mental health concerns and we talked to TWO comedians and former gymnasts, Sylvie Borschel and Dylan Adler (welcum back!) about how they feel about Simone dropping out, the internets response to it, and the  gymnastics culture in general. The good, the bad, the dark ugly, and how it shaped them as children.
