Beijing Olympics: sports, politics and a cocktail-making robot: The 2022 Winter Olympics are on in Beijing. It’s the first city in the world to host both a winter and summer Games (the latter of which happened back in 2008). These Games are shaping up to be much different.

He tells us what it’s like inside the Olympic bubble and how politics are playing into these Games. by The Decibel
