A proposito di questo titolo
This week on Millennial Meets Gen Z, we revisit Cool Runnings — and go beyond the movie to explore the real story of the Jamaican bobsled team.
We talk about how the idea for the team actually began, what Disney changed for storytelling, and what the road to the 1988 Winter Olympics really looked like for a group of Jamaican athletes entering a sport they had never competed in before. From open tryouts and borrowed equipment to discipline, pride, and resilience, the real story is just as compelling as the film.
This episode dives into the balance between underdog mythology and reality, the importance of representation, and why Cool Runnings still holds a special place in 90s pop culture. We also talk about what it meant for Jamaica to show up on the world stage — not to win medals, but to prove they belonged.
