   Hannah East

   Gladiators was this week's guest's first big break which spawned into a career as a TV presenter before taking on stand-up comedy. She joined the podcast to talk about her pathway into comedy, her past swimming career, presenting at London 2012 and much much more. Hosted on Acast.

   Re-release: Andy Murray

   The Wimbledon fortnight is getting under way and what better than a trip down memory lane with one of our favourite former guests, Andy Murray. The two-Wimbledon champion is coaching fellow Brit Jack Draper at the tournament, and joined us to talk drugs tests and skiing trips gone wrong and much, much more besides. Hosted on Acast.

   Darren Walsh

   The punmaster is in the hot seat this week hitting us with joke after joke in quick succession from the pole vault to acupuncture. By his own admission, not a natural sportsman at school he was picked last at football and runs like Phoebe from Friends. Now this one was recorded a long old time ago, and you can catch him at the Edinburgh Fringe this summer. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
