Michael Andrew is back. This time, with an Olympic gold medal and World Record representing the stars and stripes. Brett and MA break down each of his 3 individual swims at the Tokyo Olympics and dive face first into being vilified and targeted for being unvaccinated.
Remember when Christine Brennan called him a bad, selfish teammate in USA Today? How about when Maya DiRado threw him under the bus on Twitter two days before the start of the Olympics? Would you believe a USA Swimming team manager followed him into the ready room at the Olympics before the Final of the Men's 50 Freestyle?
How about USA Swimming asking him to leave Short Course World Championships in Abu Dhabi?
