Tokyo 2020 Paralympics: Day 10 Sep 03, 2021

Show notes

CORRECTION: In the women's wheelchair basketball competition, we said the US defeated China 41-36, when in fact, China won this game. China will face Netherlands for the gold medal. The US will play Germany for the bronze. We regret this error.

It's Day 10 of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics, which means the team events are starting to wind down. But, the competition's heating up! We've got all the action on the day's events, who was soggy and who stayed dry, and (as always) some thoughts on today's television coverage, which almost makes us miss Mike and Maya.

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