Episode #101 Florent Manaudou
Florent Manaudou is the 2012 Olympic Champion in the Men's 50 Freestyle. Anthony Ervin clipped him in 2016 to mess up his bid to win back-to-back Olympic titles. Florent retired and became a professional handball player. He has since come out of retirement to join Energy Standard as part of the International Swimming League.
