In this episode of Season Pass, Skyler Smith, Isabelle Stadden, and Anna Peplowski reunite to recap a packed week of swimming. Anna calls in from Astana, Kazakhstan, wrapping up the World Cup circuit after stops in Baku and Tashkent. She shares stories from the road, including a scary hospital visit in Uzbekistan and going a best time in the 200 free.

Meanwhile, Skyler and Isabelle are at UVA for the Virginia Pro-Am, a low-pressure short course meters meet ahead of World Short Course Championship trials. The trio breaks down their training weeks and what it feels like to race deep in the grind of "Rocktober."

The conversation shifts to the College Swimming League, where they recap recent matches, marvel at fast early-season swims, and debate whether the league should expand next year. They wrap up with meet-day superstitions and post-meet meal cravings before signing off.
