Gymnastics Show April 26 Neutral Deductions & Stag Media | EP 164

🥇 In 2026, we’re launching a brand‑new monthly gymnastics show on The Sam Oldham Podcast. Each month, we’ll explore the biggest names, emerging storylines, and major championship build‑ups in artistic gymnastics — plus post‑competition debriefs with some of the sport’s most passionate experts and analysts.

In this week’s episode, Lewis Thomson — the young, talented athlete turned independent gymnastics journalist — joins us to discuss the Artistic Gymnastics World Cup circuit. We’re also joined by Kensley Behel, the brilliant mind behind Neutral Deductions, who breaks down the conclusion of the NCAA Championships season.

We explore the world‑class field that attended the Osijek World Cup in April, reviewing key routines and standout performances. In Japan, Daiki Hashimoto captured his sixth consecutive National Title at the All‑Japan Championships in Takasaki, narrowly edging out reigning Olympic all‑around champion Oka Shinnosuke. Over in the U.S., Stanford University claimed the 2026 NCAA men’s gymnastics title, holding off Oklahoma, while Fred Richard continued his impressive start to the season, taking the all‑around crown.

This year, our mission remains the same — to share the stories behind the finest athletes in the sport of gymnastics. Thank you to our listeners, sponsors, and supporters for being part of the journey.
