USA TODAY Sports has officially debuted a new video podcast that will be the cornerstone for coverage of the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Games in Italy.
The video podcast, or vodcast, called "Milan Magic" is hosted by veteran USA TODAY Sports columnist Christine Brennan and Olympic gold medal champion figure skater Brian Boitano as they provide in-depth analysis through extensive coverage, behind-the-scenes reporting and exclusive interviews with athletes.
The duo couldn't have been a more perfect match for the project.
Boitano is a three-time U.S. Olympian who won gold in men's singles figure skating at the 1988 Winter Games in Calgary. He outmatched his Canadian rival Brian Orser by making Olympic history, becoming the first person to land eight triple jumps.
Brennan joined USA TODAY as a national sports columnist in 1997. She has covered every Olympic Games since 1984 – both summer and winter games. She's authored eight books on sports and became a New York Times best-seller with "Inside Edge" which dives into Olympic figure skating.
