Sportish

Sporties! We're on a 2 week break while we survive school holidays but we'll be back on Wednesday 2 October. In the meantime, nominate someone (or a team) for the Mid Week Hall of Fame HERE (and why not make it a voice note?).

What does a Mid Week Hall of Fame nominee look like?.... It's a grassroots, authentic moment that deserves to be celebrated. It doesn't have to be a win, it doesn't have to be a personal best time and a good test is "could this be a story line in a movie or episode". If in doubt, nominate away!

The Paralympics may have drawn to a close but sport must go on! Libby continues her (healthy? unhealthy?) obsession with cycling, we unpack a kids sport killer and we're back with another mid week hall of fame. Tune in!

The arrogance of cheating, Paralympic Officials who had 1 job (!), the awesomeness of Annie Williams, and introducing the Mid Week Hall of Fame.

Cycling defections, the return of TED LASSO(!) and a mild panic about inclusive clauses being unfair. AND, of course, a Paralympics previews. Tune in!

This week we're interrupting normal programming to help you jump on some bandwagons - this time, Paralympic ones! Here's our chat with triathlete and absolute legend Jeremy Peacock. We recorded this chat before we knew for sure that he'd be in Paris, and the brilliant news is that he's been selected!! 

You can find Jeremey on Instagram @jezza_peacock and support him via his blog https://jpparatri.wordpress.com/

We have SO MANY thoughts on breaking, marathons, cycling, athletics - essentially most of the things that happened in Paris week 2. 

FYI we are well aware that we do not know what cool is. 

(Ps - we know, the audio is a bit average. We're on it.)

How we love the Olympic (even if there is NO time to sleep). We chat about all the big and little moments that have caught our eye (and our hearts!) from Paris Week 1. Expect a swimming wrap up, with a side of Pommel Horse Guy and the most unfortunate of pole vault fouls.

How did we feel about the Opening Ceremony? Why is Snoop Dog everywhere at the Olympics? Are the beds in the Olympic Village really that bad? Why do the skateboarders not wear helmets and how is it that Libby is STILL talking about Le Tour De France?!!! 

Eavesdrop on us doing a detailed debrief on all things Olympic.

When it comes to the Olympics, there is nothing better than a sports montage set to banging tunes or an Olympic anthem that gives you chills (remember Gloria Estefan and Atlanta? We absolutely go there). So when we heard that Jessica Mauboy had released a team song for the Australian athletes, we had no choice to revisit that time when the Australian swimming team wrote and recorded their own Olympic song. 

You can watch the 2008 Aussie Swim Team song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikt4SuzGGsc

And if you're looking for goosebumps, go and watch Gloria delivers the goods: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3EFOSJ4ZQc

PS. We know that we said Gloria sang at Barcelona and that is absolutely incorrect. It was Atlanta. We blame all the feelings.

For the love of crepes - all roads lead to France at the moment, with a slight Texan detour and some questions about what to call you Sportish listeners (send us your thoughts! DM on Instagram @beingsportish or email us at [email protected]).
