Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E19: Olympics 2022 - Team Event SP (Pt.1)It is officially the Beijing 2022 Olympics! It has already been incredibly eventful, but we are going to start with the Team Event short programs and rhythm dance events. This episode was full of math as we tried to add everyone’s points together, and we talked about the fight for the podium spots between ROC, USA, and Japan, as well as the fight for that 5th FS qualifying spot between China and Georgia.The Men warmed us up with notable skaters like Shoma Uno, Nathan Chen, and a special sho...2022-02-161h 21Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E18: Four Continents Championships 2022Four Continents already?! This year, it was more like Definitely Less Than Four Continents, as we had many withdrawals, but still an event with many podium finishes we loved.In the Pairs event, everyone stayed home, but we had a triumphant comeback from Evelyn Walsh and Trennt Michaud with their bronze medal and wonderfully skated SP, and a gold medal for our dark horse team in US pairs, Audrey Lu and Misha Mitrofanov.In the Men’s event, it was a mixed bag (as always), but Jun-hwan Cha was ou...2022-02-071h 15Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E17: European Championships 2022 - Men & Ice DanceIn our second 2022 Euros recap episode, there was no shortage of laughter or tears, as we nervously chuckled about Larry Loupolover’s choreography, but are so incredibly sad that Allison Reed and Saulius Ambrulevicius will not be going to the Olympics despite an incredibly hard struggle to obtain Allison’s Lithuanian citizenship.In the Men’s event, we continued to wish for Kevin Aymoz to rest (but it’s a little late now that we are right up against Olympics Eve), played some air guitar with Michal Brezina and his love for dad rock, and were...2022-02-051h 02Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E16: European Championships 2022 - Women & PairsWelcome to our two recap episodes of 2022 Euros! Our Women and Pairs episode was full of Mambo Italiano, and celebration that Josefin Taljegård will be going to the Olympics! Really, all you need.In the Pairs event, it was the battle of the top three Russian teams, where we were confused by our overwhelming enthusiasm for Boikova and Kozlovskii’s Malagueña, and the general nature of Mishina and Galliamov’s Snowstorm program.In the Women’s event, we continued to bop our heads along with Ekaterina Ryabova to the s...2022-01-3055 minLutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E15: U.S. Nationals 2022 - Women & PairsIt’s our second U.S. Nationals recap episode, this time with the Women and Pairs’ events, and there was no shortage of positive COVID tests. After the sad withdrawals of Alysa Liu, and the heartbreak of Amber Glenn, we were able to watch on the edge of our seats as Mariah Bell won her first nationals title, Karen Chen made her way to her second Olympics, and Isabeau Levito made a splash at her first senior nationals.The pairs’ event was a short one after many withdrawals due to inju...2022-01-2552 minLutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E14: U.S. Nationals 2022 - Men & Ice DanceUS Nationals was a heck of a superspreader, er, figure skating competition! The top 7 men laid it down in the short program, and went on to lay down some chaos in the free skate. Ice Dance saw some nail biters and some boy bands as the top teams battled for the gold medal, and that coveted third Olympic spot.In the Men’s event, we saw either Guy Fieri, Hot Cheetos, or the Eye of Sauron on Nathan Chen’s new fiery costume, a triumphant Camden Pulkinen, and a sad boot incident for our disc...2022-01-231h 26Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E13: Russian Nationals 2022 - Women & PairsIt was a big weekend for the Russian women, with so many phenomenal contenders (and of course, the questionable officials and adults in power) but so few qualifying spots for the Olympics and the remainder of the season. It was also a big weekend for the Russian pairs, with some surprising outings, but solid standings and tight competition.In the women’s event, we cried for Liza Tuktymysheva, were Sofia Samodurova’s hype women, and marveled at Kamila Valieva’s performance. In the Pairs event, we debated over Mishina and Galliamov’s “The Snowstorm” program (and...2022-01-041h 47Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E12: Russian Nationals 2022 - Men & Ice DanceWelcome to our Russian Nationals recap episodes! This week, Men and Ice Dance brought the big drama, as we have a (wonderful!) somewhat-surprise Men’s gold medalist in Mark Kondratiuk, and a celebration that the Backstreet Boys, Justin Bieber, and Shawn Mendez (and Alexandra Stepanova and Ivan Bukin) will likely be going to the Olympics together.We again wondered where J-Lo was in Mikhail Kolyada’s SP, but were very happy to see the return of Nureyev in his FS.

Chinese team, Wang Shiyue and Liu Xinyu brought some blue suede shoes to the stage with their RD, while Alexandra Stepanova & Ivan Bukin took us through a tour of the boy-bands, ful...2021-11-131h 27Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E05: Gran Premio d'Italia 2021/22 - Women & PairsThis leg of the Grand Prix circuit was saved from disaster by the wonderful Italian federation, who seemed to have had the funds to invite the likes of Ed Sheeran and Dua Lipa to the Women & Pairs events this past weekend. In our Pairs event, we saw the start of Nicole Della Monica & Matteo Guarise’s last competitive season, but their legacy and unitards are in good hands with the up and coming Italian teams. We also saw and shared the joy of the Chinese pairs team, Peng & Jin, whilst also crying heartfelt tears for...2021-11-111h 08Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E04: Skate Canada 2021/22 - Men & Ice DanceIt is the second senior Grand Prix event of the season and we are already exhausted, and the men’s continued chaos does not help one bit. Fortunately in this Skate Canada Men and Ice Dance episode, there were some relieving and joyful moments as well.In the Ice Dance event, we pleaded with Zach Lagha to sell his Rio beak masks, continued to be both 3000 and 8 and 2000 and late with another Boom Boom Pow program, and gave bold predictions about Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier on the Olympic podium....2021-11-041h 17Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E03: Skate Canada 2021/22 - Women & PairsWelcome to our Skate Canada recap episodes! The Women and Pairs events were, well, eventful, although not quite as hair raising as Men (but we’ll get to them soon).The Pairs event was basically the Vancouver stop on Harry Styles’ Love on Tour (well, kinda), but with the most unfortunate song lyric choice. We also celebrated with Ashley Cain-Gribble and Tim LeDuc for their bronze medal win, and canceled SBS 3S with Sui Wenjing and Han Cong (and prayed that at least one person would say his name right).In...2021-11-041h 44Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E01: Skate America 2021/22 - Women & PairsThe women’s event at Skate America didn’t quite have the chaos of the men’s event, but there was still much to talk about. We discussed Cruella lore and the implications of Alexandra Trusova’s dogs’ names on her dress, cried happy tears over the appreciation of Satoko Miyahara’s artistry (and lamented the judges’ cruel lowballing), wished we were in Vegas to take photos with Amber Glenn and rainbow flags, and mistook Keanu Reeves for Liam Neeson but appreciated Kaori Sakamoto’s new programs nonetheless.In the pairs event, we continued our search for c...2021-10-281h 23Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS02 E02: Skate America 2021/22 - Men & Ice DanceWould it really be a men’s event if chaos did not abound? We will never know the answer to that as at Skate America, we again did not see peace. We talked about how everyone should lay off Nathan Chen and how we love happy and confident Vincent Zhou and the benefits of skating to a program with your name as the title. We also questioned who Joce’s clubbing buddy is now that Uno Shoma is skating to Vivaldi and Bolero, and cried for and with Kevin Aymoz while joining the audience for a...2021-10-281h 04Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS01 E25: End of Season Recap & AwardsWe wrap our first season of the Lutz Get Down to Business Podcast with this episode - the pod’s very own End of Season Awards ‘show’!

We had the wonderful opportunity of spending some time talking to Camden Pulkinen - US National Team Member, 2018 US Junior National Champion, and a fan fave. We ask Camden about this season and next; discuss music, choreography, and what artistry means to him; and finish on some fun ‘rapid-fire’ questions that were certainly NOT done in a rapid-fire manner. This probably is our FAVORITE thing we have done to date, and we really hope that everyone enjoys this as...2021-05-0953 minLutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS01 E23: 2021 World Team TrophyOur final event recap of the season is here! Much like WTT, this episode was just a lot of Claudia and Joce having fun and talking about whatever came to mind. (We talked for MUCH longer than we expected too; but don’t worry, timestamps are below!!). We analysed each team’s Opening Ceremony entrances, picked apart the Kiss & Cry shenanigans, and generally just mused about the skaters and their programs - some of which we have seen multiple times this season, and others which were fresh and new.

Seriously, it was 4:30am and we were laughing so hard. We talked about the emotional significance of Guignard and Fabbri’s 7+3 program, counted the number of skaters in Keegan Messing-esque cowboy costumes, and Claudia took imaginary shots for every all-black gala costume. We also marveled at Yuzuru Hanyu’s program and fought about our favorite Nathan Chen program. (Rocketman and Caravan are superior - can you tell who wrote this caption??)

(Well, we will be uploading a Gala/World Team Trophy/Olympics spots discussion soon, but besides that). In this recap of the Ice Dance event, we absolutely screamed for Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier’s bronze medal and waved a 20ft Canadian flag in our minds, not unlike Keegan Messing in the audience. We also cried a river over some highly sus judging scores and talked (some more, again) about Greatest Showman programs. And of course a shoutout to not having to listen to “My Heart Belongs to Daddy” again!

There was SO much to discuss especially when we are so invested in so many of the men! We chat about sageing the cursed ice, cry a ton more for our favourites who had rough skates, and cry even more for the skaters whose amazing performances gave us the feels.

We cry some more tears (see a trend starting to form?) over our favourites who had a bad week, and yell with pride for our favourites who had a great week! Don’t worry, we definitely also touched on the judges, and with how many hands they give out their GOEs and PCS.

We started with 5 time gold medalist Nathan Chen with a bit of a disappointing weekend, but our socks were knocked right off by Jason Brown and his breathtaking Sinnerman program. We cried to Mitchell Friess’s 'Dear Evan Hansen' program, talked about how suitable the Vincent program is for Vincent Zhou, and really got chaotic with Javier Fernandez in Boots and our favorite flat audience member, Nathan Chamster.

Bradie Tennell earned her well-deserved gold medal, and there was a fight for 2nd through 5th. We are ECSTATIC that Amber Glenn became the first openly pansexual woman on the American Nationals podium, and she delivered a clean and emotional free skate. Alysa Liu’s return and bright spirit, and Karen Chen’s spiral sequence were also muchly appreciated. And would we really be living in this season if we didn’t talk about Mariah Bell’s ABBA program? Not in this climate!Tim...2021-01-191h 06Lutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS01 E12: Russian Nationals 2021 - Ice Dance & MenThe chaos of Russian men and the 3rd-5th ice dance finishers at the 2021 Russian National Championships was a roller coaster to watch. In this episode, we recap both events. We were so happy to see the return of Stepanova and Bukin, debate The Greatest Showman program cuts, wonder how many glow sticks it took to make Mark Kondratiuk’s short program costume, and hope that Mikhail Kolyada keeps his programs for the Olympics season.Timestamps:(00:00) - Intro(03:09) - Ice Dance(25:45) - Men(47:00) - Kiss & Cry: bo...2021-01-0450 minLutz Get Down to BusinessLutz Get Down to BusinessS01 E13: Russian Nationals 2021 - Pairs & LadiesRussian Pairs & Ladies always deliver drama, and it was no different at the 2021 Russian National Championships.

Of course, we had to wonder if Keanu Reeves would show up in the kiss and cry if Kaori Sakamoto’s blade entered the judges’ Matrix, and sob over Stephane Lambiel and Shoma Uno’s coaching relationship.
