Description

Paralympic silver medalist Sarah Adam joins Laughter Permitted to talk about her experience of competing in wheelchair rugby at the 2024 Paris Paralympics, what it was like being the first woman on the U.S. wheelchair rugby team and how the sport came into her life. Sarah also shares how her identity as an athlete helped her cope with a multiple sclerosis diagnosis at the age of 25, how she embraced adaptive sports and how she views her role as a professor of occupational therapy. Plus, the Lynn Game has a unique tiebreak, and Sarah tells the hilarious story of her close call with smack talking. In the close, a listener suggests Julie try a new flavor of ice cream.

Email Julie and Lynn at laughterpermitted@gmail.com. They welcome questions, deep thoughts and jokes.

Producer’s Note: The Lynn Game is now three questions. The stakes have been raised!
