The Runthrough
Olympians Adam Rippon and Ashley Wagner join forces with Sarah Hughes (no relation to 2002 Olympic Champion, Sarah Hughes) to tackle the most important questions figure skaters have been asking themselves for years.
Questions like: “Why does this short program feel so long?” or “Is there such a thing as your costume being too tight?” and the most important question of all: “Will changing my hair color fix all my problems?”
Join the team as they cover all the news, competitions, and drama of the figure skating season. Will they kiss? Will they cry? There’s only one way to find out.

I Just Dislocated My Shoulder Period Send
Season 1, Episode 170
Show notes
In this episode Adam and Ashley record this episode without Sarah and so obviously it's a bit off the rials (as one would expect). They talk about dressing as a brick, skating the drums, and texting who you're dating after you get injured at a new rink.
They also ask the question: "Who has time to edit a program preview for social media when you have to sit at Starbucks for 3 hours after practice?"
