Welcome to Medallica: Minnows vs The World! Join hosts Gus and Rig live from Paris as they follow the journeys of the countries striving to experience Olympic success for the first time, as well as their bid to host the 2036 Olympics in the micro-nation they founded - The People's Republic of Riggustan. We also look at all the behind the scenes Olympic news in “Apocolympics Now”, and bring you a feature each episode on countries who might break the duck during the games in "Donut Spotlight".

Rio Episode 5: Opening Ceremony 05.08.2016

With 1 day to go until the Rio Olympics kick into full competition, and with the Opening Ceremony only hours away, things continue to go from bad to worse for the Rio Organising Committee. We take a huge step towards tracking down Sidibe, chat with the very lovely 2012 London Sailing Silver medallist Lucinda Whitty, rap about Architecture in 'Craftlympics' and the donut spotlight features a "Space...

Rio Episode 3: 3 Days To Go 03.08.2016

Rio Episode 1: 5 Days To Go 31.07.2016

Some countries have tasted the ultimate success at the Olympics. Some countries lose track of how many medals they've won, needing a team of actuaries to keep count. Some countries love winning medals so much, they implement nation-wide doping schemes in a bid to win more. This show is not about those countries.
