Did you think we'd forgotten about you??? 

We took our time but it was worth it cos we couldn't do the end of year review without the First Ladies of Backstraight. Jeanette Kwakye and OG Backstraight Girl Claire Thomas made room in their very busy broadcasting schedules to join us and discuss an action packed 2023.

From Josh Kerr and KJT snatching Gold, Sha'carri  coming good, Faith having a season for the ages and Budapest maybe being THE GOAT, this year had EVERYTHING.

We sat down to reminisce about our the memorable moments and discuss our Bests and Worst of 2023 and look forward to 2024
