After a brief summer hiatus the ever talented Spindrift Beck returns with a new episode of her podcast, Swimcerely With Spindrift, featuring Olympic medalist Caroline Burckle.

CAROLINE BURCKLE joins Swimcerely With Spindrift. The two self-labeled social introverts discuss college recruiting trips, independence learned from attending all-girl schools, and give the swimming community a chance to peek into the mindset of an Olympic medalist.

Swimcerely with Spindrift is a podcast that showcases conversations with high school, collegiate, pro, and Olympic swimmers’ about their likes, dislikes, career, goals, and more. Each episode centers on a different swimmer, giving a behind-the-scenes look at what makes these athletes tick and, in some cases, what separates them as some of the best swimmers in the world.

“My favorite podcasts are ones that feature actors, writers, and comedians speaking not just about their craft but about their favorite restaurants, TV shows, telling funny stories, etc. With 2016 fast approaching, I wanted to try to bring that sort of format to swimming, so that fans can have a new type of unfiltered access to their favorite swimmers. The show is meant to be off-the-cuff, goofy, and a little different. Hopefully people will enjoy!” – Spindrift Beck
