KARE 11 – Olympic Movies
By Brian Eggert | February 18, 2026
Dear readers,
Last weekend, I appeared on KARE 11 Saturday, the weekend morning show of the NBC affiliate in Minnesota, to recommend three movies about the Olympics: the documentary Tokyo Olympiad (1965), the Robert Redford drama Downhill Racer (1969), and the Best Picture winner Chariots of Fire (1981).
Check out the segment below and visit the Guest Appearances page for my other TV and podcast credits.
Happy viewing!
