Curling season is here — and we’re taking you straight onto the ice for the strategy, skill, and sneaky intensity behind this Olympic favorite. Recreational curler Allan Veeler joins us to break down the sport like you’ve never heard it: the basics, the culture, the lingo, and the community that keeps people coming back. Then two-time Olympian Nina Roth pulls back the curtain on Team USA training, Winter Olympics pressure, and how elite curlers blend precision, mindset, and big-picture strategy. We get into the sport’s rapid growth and why local clubs — especially here in Wisconsin — remain the heartbeat of curling. A fast, fun, must-listen crash course for anyone Olympics-obsessed or finally ready to understand why this sport hooks everyone who tries it.
