I’m cohosting the Enhanced Games this Sunday, first time as a broadcaster. It’s the Olympics with enhancement allowed. Athletes use FDA-approved medications prescribed and supervised by doctors. Most enhancement protocols were monitored in an IRB clinical trial over the past five months. Athletes testing the frontiers of what’s possible.
