Jordanne Whiley MBE has achieved something that no other British tennis player has managed to do; complete the calendar slam.

The 28-year-old has 4 Wimbledon wheelchair doubles titles to her name, as well as the US Open singles title from 2015.

In this podcast, Jordanne discusses her early years in the sport, life on tour as a mother and the highs and lows that came with her two Paralympic bronze medals.

Plus, we hear about chicken nuggets, her post-tennis plans and how she was more upset about Wimbledon being cancelled than her own wedding!

John Naber: Olympian, Swimmer, Broadcaster, Storyteller & Teacher.

A very inspiring and motivating conversation with one of the Olympic greats in the pool. 

John Naber is one of America’s greatest Olympians. At the Montreal Games in 1976, he won 4 gold medals and 1 silver, becoming the most decorated athlete from those Olympics.

However, his world records stuck around longer than he did. Upon retiring aged 21, John has gone on to work at Disneyland, broadcast for American television and chair the US Olympic Alumni Association.

In this podcast, John opens up about his faith, his work with the Olympic movement and how he sees the life of an Olympian today.

5 Paralympic gold medals, 12 World titles and 5 Defining Moments for Hannah Cockroft! ‘Hurricane’ Hannah is the latest guest to join me on My Defining Moments, as the T34 Wheelchair racer discusses the highs and lows of her career so far.

Since winning 2 Paralympic titles at a home Games aged just 20, Hannah has gone on to dominate her event. A seven year undefeated streak came to an end at the hands of her younger compatriot. But, as Hannah explains, that only fueled the fire for greater success.

Listen to Hannah explain how she first got into sport at a relatively late age, what it’s like to receive an MBE and her shock at the addition of the 800 metres to the Paralympic program!

Plus we hear about her dream week; breaking world records AND being prom Queen, getting mobbed in Westfields shopping centre and how presenting Countryfile affected her career on the track.
