Episode Notes

So in this one, we spiral—emotionally and professionally.

We talk about Top Chef making us cry, why your arms shouldn't be twins (yes, like your eyebrows), and how telling someone “real swimmers go under 2:00” is basically psychological warfare in a swim cap. Also, keyhole pulls? Trash. Gone. Antiquated like floppy disks and landlines.

Oh—and one of my swimmers dropped 50 minutes off his marathon swim after we stopped doing what the internet says is “correct.” So yeah, maybe rethink that pretty little front quadrant glide.

It’s a mix of rants, weird metaphors, swim coaching, and probably some oversharing. You’ll like it.
