Talk's A Good Game

4 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 2 years ago -

What started out as an idea between 3 lads who have various sporting experiences outside the professional industry, has now come to life. Interest in our concept enables us to deliver some powerful messages from our guests, who themselves have come forward to discuss with us. Talk's A Good Game provides a platform for both current and former Sportsmen/women to talk about their sporting career. However, what sets us apart is our guests will also open up about issues within sport, or leading to issues in their personal lives. Each episode will contain a particular feature focus on real life issues such as mental health, racism and many more. Our audience will be able to relate to our guests, and we also aim to raise awareness. In doing so, we have formed links with relevant charities we will support. The podcast will be fun, light hearted, and insightful. If we can help one person, in our opinion, we have succeeded.
