Blethered

Commonwealth Featherweight Champion boxer Nathaniel Collins tell me about his early steps into amateur boxing after overcoming a physical defect at birth, before eventually travelling all over the world to compete against the very best.

We discuss his transition into professional boxing, including the dedication and sacrifice made that saw him recently crowned Commonwealth Featherweight Champion, and what lies ahead.

Former footballer Dean Richardson talks about his days as a youth player at Celtic in the early 2000’s and the progression of his career after leaving Celtic Park.

On top of that, there’s some funny stories about nights in the cells in Dublin and physical assaults from the enigmatic Tommy Gravesen after beating him at pool.

But most importantly, Dean tells me about his recent testicular cancer battle at only 34 years of age, and how vital early detection was in saving his life.

You’ll hear great advice and we dismantle the notion of embarrassment when it comes to something so serious.

Born in Stewarton, Ayrshire, Rose was a trailblazer in women's football, with an unparalleled career in France and Italy.

Rose tells me about playing for AC Milan and Napoli, and winning the World Cup with Italy.

I'm joined by Emma O'Neil and Finlay Anderson to discuss CBD. Emma owns a CBD product company and Finlay is the Spa Director for the IHG hotel chain, which includes the Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel.

We discuss the physical and mental benefit of CBD products, are they a myth or do they really impact you in a positive way?

We chat about the new biophilic suite in the Kimpton Bythswood Square Hotel and the need for connection to nature, especially in lockdown.

And we examine just how important rest & recuperation is for your mental wellbeing.
