We don’t know about you, but we’re having so much fun watching this year’s Summer Olympic Games in Rio, especially the swimming.

We loved getting his unique insights before the Games started, so we’re checking back in with him in Rio after the first couple days of competition. Rowdy weighs in on Michael Phelps’ continued domination, the rise of Katie Ledecky and why there’s no place for cheating and doping at the elite level.
