The Protocol 02.06.2026 28minThe Enhanced athletes are training in Abu Dhabi - and their “enhancement” protocol keeps getting delayed. Week after week, the athletes are told it’s starting soon. Then it doesn’t. Then missiles start dropping outside their hotel windows as the war in Iran begins. And still, somehow, the hardest part is the waiting. By the time the moment finally arrives, no one quite knows how to feel. Because once that needle goes in, there’s no turning back.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Silver Medal Mentality 12.05.2026 37minWe travel to the Enhanced Games training camp in Las Vegas to meet the competitors at the heart of this experiment. Former world champion Ben Proud, who walked away from the Paris Olympics with a silver medal and a looming question: who was he without swimming? And Megan Romano, a retired world champion who spent nine years away from the pool before getting the call. They're chasing speed, financial security, and a shot at something they never quite got when they were playing by the rules. The only catch: they'll be the first athletes in history to do it openly, on performance-enhancing drugs, in front of the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And we’ve been right there alongside the competitors as they prepare for this radical new sports event.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Introducing: SuperHuman 28.04.2026 2minImagine an Olympics where everyone is doping. No testing, no limits. Sounds like a joke? It’s not – the first ever Enhanced Games - a radical new competition designed to push the human body beyond its natural limits with a million-dollar prize attached kicks off at the end of May. And we have been embedded with the games for over a year watching athletes go from human to superhuman. I wanted to know, will the games go down in flames or usher in a new era, unlike anything we've ever seen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
