With the Rio Olympics less than three months away, it's time to take a close look at what's really in store for these Games. Yahoo Sports writer Eric Adelson traveled to Brazil recently to get the lay of the land as the Games near, and in this ep of the podcast, we discuss:

-The most likely scenario for catastrophe at the Games, and how likely it really is
-Concerns about security and terrorism, as well as the Zika virus, as the Games draw near
-Infrastructure problems and questions throughout the Olympic venues
-Why the in-flight movie was the scariest aspect of the trip
All this, plus some discussion about what it's like to play Augusta National. Enjoy!
