Description

It's the end of the year - and we thought we'd round off 2019 with a special episode, looking back at some of the Olympians and Paralympians who have joined us during the past year.

There's a whole array of brilliant athletes and officials over the course of the next half-an-hour, as we hear from:

- Paralympic gold medallist Megan Giglia
- Olympic gold medallist Susannah Townsend
- Two-time Paralympian David Hill
- Olympic sailing judge Alan Baser
- Paralympian Caroline Matthews
- Double Olympic gold medallist Nicola Adams

You'll hear stories of overcoming adversity; of reaching new highs; of claiming the ultimate prize; and the importance of being LGBTQ+ role models.

And if you like what you hear from any of our guests, don't forget you can hear their full episode right now by taking a look in our back-catalogue of shows!
