This is the craziest Olympic sport by far. Trust me. This episode is #sponsored by @NBCSports @YouTube #WinterOlympics Every four years, people lose their minds over one Olympic sport. They make fun of it! But the more I learned about it, the more obsessed I got
 and I realized that all these people making fun? They’re getting this totally wrong. This is the coolest Olympic sport by far. The sport I’m talking about is
 CURLING. From stones so unique they all have to come from one tiny island, to a tech doping scandal nobody wants to talk about. It’s a game with strategy so complicated it’s called “chess on ice”. And a physics mystery that’s gone unsolved for over a century that could one day help us design robots for space. And that’s just the start
 Trust me, you don’t know enough about Curling
YET. So I’m going to take you onto the ice at the Olympic Trials
 to show you what everyone’s missing and why Curling is the Olympic sport you should be watching.
