Thought we'd take a breather after returning from Tokyo before dropping our review pod. Not that we've been slacking, we've been rewatching every last minute of the action if course!!! You miss so much in the stadium. 

We're joined by one of the very few people we can be certain has followed everything as closely as we have broadcasting legend and honorary Backstraight Girl Jeanette Kwakye.

Together we discuss all of the ups and downs of a fantastic 2025. World Championships.

Sorry we're late guys, but I'm sure you'll appreciate that after the exploits of Friday we we got a bit delayed in our podcasting responsibilities.

There was a fantastic turn out for our afternoon meet up and beers before we headed to the stadium and continued the partying.

Rai and Femke claimed more 400h GOLD whilst Noah 4peated in the 200m and MJW did the sprint double but it was our very own Amy Hunt claiming silver that tipped us over the edge and back to the pub.

To help us remember everything that went on we’re joined by sprint expert and host of The Final Leg channel Anderson Emerole  

We'll back on schedule tomorrow (I think).
