This week on the Cyclist Magazine Podcast, James and Will are joined by Dr Aron D’Souza, president of the Enhanced Games. Billed as ‘the ultimate demonstration of what the human body can do’, the Enhanced Games seeks in part to answer that age-old pub question, ‘What if athletes were allowed to dope, how much better would they be?’ It’s a divisive topic unlike any other in sport, but having secured funding – including from Donald Trump Jnr – D’Souza and his team are confident the first edition of the Enhanced Games will run within the next two years. Unlike the Olympics, athletes will be directly paid to participate and will receive bonuses for breaking records, and thus the edges of human limits will be smashed through. There’ll be input from pharmaceutical companies, profits will be recycled into the research of newer drugs to push boundaries ever further, and the trickle-down effect will be that one day, that drug you saw on TV that helped that 69-year-old woman run a sub-10 second 100m will be available to you. 0:00 Interview 1:42 Interview with Aron D'Souza 48:42 Discussing the Enhanced Games Subscribe to Cyclist magazine: http://store.cyclist.co.uk/cycpod You can find more articles on our website: http://cyclist.co.uk/ Follow us on Twitter: http://x.com/cyclist Like our Facebook page: http://facebook.com/CyclistMag/ Find us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/cyclist_mag/
