In\u00a0the 11th\u00a0episode\u00a0of Spindrift Beck\u2019s<\/strong> podcast entitled Swimcerely With Spindrift,<\/a>\u00a0Beck talks with\u00a0Olympic gold medalist Megan Jendrick<\/strong>. This episode is part 1 of a two-part podcast.<\/p>\n

In a personal dream come true for its host, Megan (Quann) Jendrick<\/strong> (Olympic Gold Medalist, Sydney 2000 + Olympic Silver Medalist, Beijing 2008) joins the Swimcerely podcast today! In part 1 of what will be a two-part discussion, Megan talks us through the seemingly inconceivable experience of winning an Olympic gold medal at 16 years old. Also discussed are memories from her time in Sydney, Megan’s media persona in the early 2000’s – for which she received some flack at the time, how she looks back on her “rivalry” with Kristy Kowal<\/strong>, and the visualization trick she used as a teen that set her apart from the rest of the world.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Swimcerely with Spindrift<\/strong> is a podcast that showcases conversations with high school, collegiate, pro, and Olympic swimmers\u2019 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy 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!\u201d \u2013 Spindrift Beck<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
