How much of the Olympics did you watch and what were your favorite moments of the entire coverage?
|
Nick Wize. WFLZ: Loved Snoop Dogg doing play by play of the badminton. My favorite events to watch were the relay races and table tennis. Chris Michaels, FM100: We had a really busy week with the first week of school starting, and a few concerts in town. I didn’t get to watch as much as we normally do, but my wife and I enjoyed watching the women’s gymnastics team compete. I also think Snoop Dogg should come back and be a part of the 2028 Olympics. Brian Check, iHeartMedia: Loved it all! Opening ceremonies were amazing, both Celine and Gaga. Great to see the passion of our NBA players (Steph Curry’s night night gesture lol), the women’s soccer team and the amazing track and field team!
Jonathan Shuford, WRVW: I watched sporadically with my wife. I have to say that watching all of the U.S. women athletes just crush it was awesome! The gymnastics, the track events…just how much better they are than everyone else was really something to watch. I also enjoyed watching the trainwreck of break-dancing. Jeff Hurley, iHeartMedia: Watched quite a bit this year. I love switching on some random sport at all hours of the day and watching. Highlights were Steph Curry’s gold medal game, the women’s soccer final and several handball games.

Matt Johnson, WPLW: I watched looking for the feel-good stories and there were a lot but honestly anything involving Snoop Dogg was a win! Danny Ocean, WSBG: Loved the swimming gymnastics and hoops!
Jeremy Rice, WXXL: The last two men’s basketball games were EPIC and Simone Biles is a treasure! iHeartRadio was the exclusive audio home of the Olympics so that was very cool. I love Paris and to have them in such a beautiful city was very special, we all need more Paris in our lives. Jammer, WEZB: Only a few here and there but that runner from Norway, Jakob Ingebrigtsen, was incredible! Otis Maher, WWPW: Watched at least an event a day and my favorites where TEAM USA Men’s and Women’s Gymnastics, USA Men’s BBALL and the oddity that was breakdancing. Especially the Raygun dancer FAIL.
Derrick Cole, WAEB: I watch on average what I assume most watched, but honestly everything Snoop touched was pure gold that was my personal favorite thing to watch out for. Adam Rivers, WKCI / WKSS: Only the basketball honestly…. Jayson Tatum should have been on the court more. Big Rob, KKPL/KMAX: More than I thought I’d watch, and Snoop stole the show. It was brilliant having him involved. |
Jon Zellner, iHeartMedia: Watched and listened to quite a bit. Favorite moments: Katie Ledecky, Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles, US women’s basketball, Noah Lyles, Novak Djokovic. Chase Daniels, WQAL: Celine Dion during the opening ceremonies gave me the chills. I’m not crying, you’re crying.
Dan Hunt, KYLD: I caught the breakdancing competition and the closing ceremony featuring Snoop & Dr. Dre, those were the highlights for me. Look out for me at 2028 games. Randi West, WRMF: I didn’t get a chance to watch much but Snoop Dogg was the highlight for sure! Brilliant of NBC to have him. |
Toby Knapp, WASH: I watched so much coverage, perhaps greater than ever before. Rugby, Archery, the Women’s Gymnastics Team, the US Men and Women’s basketball teams are highlights. Snoop Dogg won the Olympics. Simone Biles is the GOAT but SNOOP won Paris.
Rick Vaughn, KENZ: Sha’Carri Richardson last leg of the 4×100 with the side-eye, then blasting her forearm through the finish line. Ridiculous. I could watch it over and over.
Erik Bradley, B96: I watched a few of Bru’s daily feature, which was an awesome opportunity for him, Lady Gaga & Celine Dion‘s opening night performance, some miscellaneous clips online & of course the viral moments but as far as actually watching live, I saw a bit of the gold medal basketball games & that was about it!
