概要

Are performance-enhancing drugs banned in the Special Olympics? Short answer: yes—but the long answer is way more interesting.

In this episode of And Now You Know, Teresa breaks down how the Special Olympics approaches PEDs differently from the traditional Olympics. Instead of constant testing and harsh punishments, the focus is on fairness, athlete safety, and education—because the mission is about inclusion and personal achievement, not elite competition.

Along the way, we get into why you’ve never heard about cheating scandals, how certain medications can complicate things, and why the organization handles issues quietly. Plus: a surprising deep dive into The Ringer, a bizarre South Park controversy, and one of the wildest cheating scandals in Paralympic history.
