In the SwimSwam Podcast dive deeper into the sport you love with insider conversations about swimming. Hosted by Coleman Hodges, Garrett McCaffrey, and Gold Medal Mel Stewart, SwimSwam welcomes both the biggest names in swimming that you already know, and rising stars that you need to get to know, as we break down the past, present, and future of aquatic sports.
We sat down with the Olympic champion and sprinting savant, Cesar Cielo. Cesar starts by taking us through his Tokyo experience, behind the microphone in Brazil where he was commentating for a Brazilian TV station. He describes the long hours and lack of sleep that come with broadcasting, shedding some light on what our American commentators go through as well, including Rowdy Gaines, Elizabeth Beisel, and Michael Phelps.
Then we got to the good stuff. Cielo dives into what certain Olympic schedules look like for athletes, especially the behind-the-scenes recovery that you have to get to when you have a heavy schedule like Caeleb Dressel or Emma McKeon. Cielo shares what he saw from the sprint sensations and why he thinks there was something left on the table for next year.

Cesar said Emma McKeon is the new Phelps. Some people gonna be so triggered lol
Emma is fantastic and you could make a debate that she’s the most versatile women’s swimmer in the world, but comparing a 27 year old whose bread and butter are sprint events to MP is a slippery slope, especially when some women’s swimmers begin to fall off in their late 20’s to early 30’s. Again she’s wonderful and I think she’s the most versatile women’s swimmer in the world but putting almost anyone next to MP is a little looney especially at her age.
Must sting for Brett!
Not a single word about his former teammate Fratus about his bronze medal..
that’s a lie….. he does talk about fratus
I mean Fratus said he didn’t congratulate him yet for his bronze medal
Guess you didn’t watch.
Have we listened to the same podcast? He spent a minute or two congratulating Bruno and praising him and his career.
Could you maybe ask Ceasar to go a little more in-depth on his ‘behind the scenes recovery’ methods?
Awesome!
