GMM presented by @SwimOutletTV @SwimOutletGear
In this GMM podcast we caught up with Regan Smith, 8-time Olympic medalist, coming off a strong showing at the 2026 Austin Pro Swim Series:
100m Backstroke — 1st, 57.98
50m Backstroke — 1st, 27.67
100m Butterfly — 1st, 56.18
200m Butterfly — 1st, 2:05.29
Four events. Four wins. And she did a color-set and lifted weights in the same week.
We wanted to catch up because Regan is one of the most fun conversations in the sport. She’s transparent for someone living inside the elite bubble. You can ask her about most anything, and she doesn’t default to clichés. That’s why we’re calling this episode What Does Regan Smith Think?
We cover:
--A lot of training questions
--Semis at the Pro Swim
--Prize money at meets (Does it make a difference to Regan at the current level? She earned $7,500 at the Austin Pro Swim.)
--Should Regan focus on backstroke only or does racing over events support the end goal?
--Where is she racing and what events? (IM might be on the calendar—for fun)
--USA Swimming’s Short Course World Championships Trials? Good, bad, meh?
--APA increases (USA Swimming National Team Members got a bump in financial support for the first time in 15 years)
--The USOPC blocking foreign athletes at the U.S. Olympic Training Center (during 2028)
--Is Regan thinking through LA2028 to Brisbane 2032?
--And a lot more…
I was sick when we captured this and sound like garbage, but I didn’t want to miss the interview. Coleman Hodges steps up with support. We drone off topic for the first 4 minutes, but we get chlorinated at 4:30. The podcast is roughly an hour and 15 minutes. We hope you enjoy it. If you’ve got questions you’d like us to bring to Regan on a future episode, drop them in the comments.
