This week I sat down with para wheelchair racer Sam Rizzo. Sam's story is an inspiring one, we spoke in depth about the challenges people with disabilities face, how an elite para athlete trains and the culture and comradery amongst the whole para circuit. Thanks to Sam for joining me! Instagram: The Sporting Babble Facebook: The Sporting Babble

This week I'm joined by Australian Boxing Hall of Famer Gairy St Clair. This was an inspiring chat from an inspiring man, we touch on Gairy's poverty-stricken upbringing in Guyana, his deportation from America, moving to Australia (a country he knew nothing about!) and his famous world title win to list just a few. Gairy was humble, hilarious and his story is one of heartbreak and triumph, I can't thank him enough for coming on and sharing his story. Remember to follow and share the show on Facebook @The Sporting Babble and Instagram @thesportingbabble and leave a review! Thanks for listening!

In the inaugural episode of The Sporting Babble, I'm joined by Olympian Tsuneari Yahiro. Tsuneari has had a long and storied career, medalling at many national and international events. He is an Australian Karate legend and we chat about his lead up to the Tokyo Olympics, his Japanese roots, the cultural differences between Japan and Australia and the ins and outs of how karate works. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did!
