The Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympic Games are upon us. Michele and Igor go behind the scenes with HuffPost reporter Travis Waldron to discuss the economic, environmental, and political impacts of the Olympics; the $109 million stadium that will be used for four events before being torn down; the likelihood that Korea’s unified team will bring lasting resolution to geopolitics of the Korean Peninsula; and why the Olympic ban on Russia for doping is just a public relations tactic from the International Olympic Committee.
