Paralympics primer and US Open preview

August 27, 2024

Hi there!

On today’s episode of The GIST of It, co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz are brushing up on their French (again) to preview the Paralympic Games, which kick off on Wednesday. From the Paralympics’ origins to the Games’ unprecedented growth on the international stage, we’re diving headfirst, fearless into the top tier alternative sports competition.

Then in part two, the gals are heading back stateside to preview the US Open, tennis’ final Grand Slam of the season, underway now from Queens, NY. Talk about an ace.

A big thank you to our friends at Aflac for powering today’s episode! Just like The GIST tackles the gap in women’s sports coverage, Aflac closes the gap that health insurance leaves behind. Learn more at aflac.com/thegist.
