Sue Bird knows Team USA has a target on its back: 'It's a part of what makes it great'

We grabbed some time with Olympic silver medallist snowboarder Ayumu Hirano of Japan. He gave a great interview but made a funny confession (in English) at the end. We hear Erin Jackson's crazy story as she qualified for the US long track speedskating team even though she's more of an inline skater. And the wonderful Olympic gold medallist figure skater Robin Cousins casts his expert eye over the men competing for gold in PyeongChang. Episode 9, people, is here...

Have you ever met someone after seeing their hilarious social media posts and they've been, well, a bit disappointing in real life? Well, US figure skater Adam Rippon is nothing like that. He's great online and in person. Freestyle skier Torin Yater-Wallace has had so many setbacks but his inner strength has somehow got him here to PyeongChang 2018. Plus, episode eight also can't be without a nod to a special day in the calendar- Haeji Kim tells Ed what happens with Valentine's Day here in South Korea. (Re-sent without 10 mins of silence... Sorry about that!)

The buzz of the Opening Ceremony is still in the air but it's straight back to business for episode number four. Olympic champion skier Lindsey Vonn cried at a press conference plus we have an incredible interview with Ghana's first skeleton slider Akwasi Frimpong.

PyeongChang starts to fill up ahead of the Opening Ceremony so we get the lowdown from two-time Olympic champ and France flagbearer Martin Fourcade on how the cold affects the biathlon plus some fascinating perspective from Wim Hof who argues we should embrace the cold. Plus, Ed and Haeji warm up by talking about spicy food.
