Chamonix 1924: Bobsleigh (Don't Drink and Bobsled!)

Thanks so much for listening, and until next time, keep the flame alive!

NOTE: An earlier version of this episode stated that Switzerland has the  the most Olympic bobsled medals. That is incorrect. The episode has been edited to reflect that change.
