I want a tom brady of curling to be announcing and educating me about rules and details but what i CAN see is wow so much talent by USA team
R
I go back to my normal schedule tomorrow but happy I got to see a ton live this Olympics so far. There will be plenty to watch after work though so no biggie
B
Dual Moguls I’m caught up on this replay now. Wow that was so much fun hope they keep this event cause it was fun for this being the first one!! And gold for Kingsbury and Canada is lovely too. Since it’s his last Olympics I guess he can walk off into the sunset after this tho he’s still so good all his jumps and turns were smooth ♥️ Also congrats to Horshima and Graham 🇯🇵🇦🇺 a podium full of dads is lovely to see
E
I’m not even scared of heights but the Large Hill event is making me dizzy.
C
As a gravel race director told us during a race stage with a hell of a lot of descending: “the easiest way off this hill is getting down it as quickly as you safely can” He was right but I was fully puckered
N
Does anyone know what the name of the song is that either NBC or the host venues have been playing after the medal ceremonies? It sounds like some sort of instrumental with angelic singing. It’s really nice.
U
I feel like being in the us it’s impossible to watch anything without peacock
D
Peacock Premium at least. LA28 you will probably need Peacock Premium+++ Silver medal edition
R
I signed up for a free 1 month trial of Walmart plus because it comes with peacock sub for free. (Can also choose paramount, but you can’t switch between the 2, you have to keep the one you selected for 90 days before you can switch) Do that if you can.
D
Yeah you need to have a VPN to watch anything if you don’t have peacock
B
Just heard about USA LH womens ski jump dsq because of weight (and thus ski length used) I guess a coaching oversight (not judging!)….?
C
Curling is the best winter sport to watch and I will die on this hill
R
2 best players in this mens hockey tournament have been the sorcerer (Mcdavid) and his apprentice (Celebrini) Just incredible the experience Macklin is getting in this competition.
D
Anyone else here creeped out by the one AI figure skating ad that showed up during the Olympics coverage…I think it was for an energy drink called Death?
K
the commercials right in the middle of curling are infuriating
Z
Anyone know if there’s been an NBC segment on this year’s American curling team?
R
Hopefully not lol
Z
If you want to watch the matches it’s fully available without the primetime coverage gaps.
D
That’s how I’m watching most of the events on Peacock, with the world feed and commentary
D
Surprised Snoop Dogg hasn’t shown up at one of the matchups at this point 😂
I
He was at one of the mixed doubles matches with a Cory and Korey jacket on.
Z
Yeah, I’m not interested in that. I just want to learn about this team.
B
Lmao why are they still showing Quad God commercials? I know some AI company probably paid a lot but eat the fucking cost lmao
J
I mean, he still does a lot of quads and is the only one to land the quad axel in competition. Just….not at the Olympics 🙁
S
Malinin is still by far the best skater in the planet. One bad day doesn’t erase his records
B
True
I
They thankfully took the Lindsay Vonn commercials off pretty quick. Not that she doesn’t deserve her payday but I cringed everytime I saw it after her crash. It seemed to disappear about a day later.
Y
That one with her doctor/health professionals was running on Peacock for days after her crash. That was uncomfortable to watch.
I
I think that was the one, randomly one day last week I realized I hadnt seen it in awhile. It probably took longer than it should have.
Z
He still won a gold in the team event. It’s not like he’s suddenly the world’s worst figure skater ever. There’s some Team USA commercials with people that didn’t even make the olympics.
M
> some Team USA commercials with people that didn’t even make the olympics. That Hershey’s one with Jason Brown. It’s him saying, “I want to win Gold for my team,” that I keep noticing the most of people who didn’t make the Olympics (or Paralympics since they’re all intermixed together) but are still in Team USA ads.
J
There’s some Team USA commercials with people who are not on Team USA this year…
Q
I never appreciated the precision of the events at the sliding track until I just saw the Women’s monobob which looks like drunk driving hyper regional nascar truck series vs the F1 of everything else.
Z
I really like the monobob.
Q
The thing with all the other events, is that they all generally are fairly nominal. What that means is that take away the commentary, and the clock at the bottom of the screen, and they all look about the same. They all do about the same lines, and they all celebrate at the end with the crowd of about 10 people. Women’s monobob, it’s just all over the place. I think chaos is the point? Kinda like Biathalon? Or that spin round the baseball bat then try to run a straight line? It’s kinda fun in the fact that it seems like the pushing is the most important part, and steering is secondary. Feels like the Rhonda Rousey era of Women’s monobob
C
What time EST does figure skating pairs start?
B
8pm local time which is 2pm EST https://wmr-static-assets.scd.dgplatform.net/wmr/static/_PDF/OWG2026/FSK/2026-02-15/FSKXPAIRS -FNL-000100–__C51B_1.0.pdf
C
Thank youu! I missed it so I’m trying to find out what time CBC does the replay tonight EST
B
Uhh don’t click on the link then, spoilers with the scores…
C
Oops
R
I see France was doing ok in the first tell that shorty right at the end of the first i am guessing it snowballed from there lol
V
Did anyone else go from USA hockey to the NBA all star game?
I
Yes. Peacock autoplayed it for me. Prime Time in Milan is shoved back to 9pm tonight.
B
is there no where to watch more olympics — they (NBC) have no extra channels for it?
I
Curling is on CNBC
B
oh great thank you
I
Pony up for a month of Peacock. It’s fairly cheap and will be worth every penny. They have everything.
B
I have peacock, i do not see how I can watch everything except their prime time at 9. I will look around. Maybe they have a section with each sport. I will look.
I
They do! It’s not an intuitive display but if you dig around, you’ll find whatever you want.
R
On the left side of the screen, click on the Olympic rings. Should bring everything up
