June 27, 2016

In its most recent episode on Sunday, the HBO late-night talk show, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, tackled the current doping scandals plaguing Olympic sports. John Oliver provides a humorous recap of the situation with Russia and doping in sport on the whole. Multiple track athletes get featured including Shalane Flanagan and Alysia Montano. The video is 20-minutes long, but definitely worth a watch. If you are short on time, start at the 9:34 point as the next 10 minutes are a great summary.
