The Olympics is a ridiculous mixture of hit-you-straight-in-the-feels origin stories and Greek god-level athletic prowess. Even in the endless parade of epic performances it inevitably serves up, Jessie Diggins’ will likely stand out.

Why Buying More “Magic” Materials Won’t Make You a Better Perfumer 34:48
