BBC sounds music radio podcasts hello, it's.
Just before 11:00 on Friday morning.
Yesterday, we pre recorded an episode looking at the Paris Olympics, which are about to get underway.
And we looked at the context of the event, some of the logistics, some of the security, how Parisians are feeling about it, and some of the prospects for the actual sport itself.
Then on Friday morning, we woke up to the news that there had been a series of arson attacks on France's high speed rail network, the TGV, which the french rail company SNCF described as a massive attack aimed at paralyzing the network and which France's transport minister condemned as a series of coordinated, malicious acts.
This affected lots of travellers and the disruptions expected to last over the weekend.
It also had a knock on effect to travellers going to Paris on the Eurostar from London.
So that was the start to the Olympics that none of the organisers will have wanted.
And you can keep up to date with that as the story unfolds on BBC News throughout the day, including on radio four at 05:00 p.m.
where I'm presenting pm.
But now here is the rest of the episode that we recorded on Thursday, looking at all the other things to do with the Olympics, including a fascinating chat about the prospects of it being overshadowed by, well, the news.
