Sportish is hosted by three time Olympian Libby Trickett and kids coach Georgie Trickett. Each week you'll be greeted with playful, inclusive conversations about sport through an unapologetically human lens, as well as interviews with our Sportish friends - from grassroots legends to elite athletes. Whether it's All that Glitters (where we talk to retired athletes), So What Happened Next? (interviews about key moments in the lives of sports, teams or athletes) or through our regular Wednesday episode, we'll help you find that point where sport and pop culture collide. Come join us!

Sportish: It's beginning to feel a bit Olympic
Olympics are in the air and WE ARE EXCITED. We chat about swimming Christmas (aka the Australian Swimming's trials) and the absolute triumph of combining the Olympic and Para athletes at the same event. Libby's also off to Paris as a commentator and we hold grave concern for her mastery of the French language.

Sportish: So What Happened Next? Nikki Dryden
Nikki Dryden is an Olympic swimmer, journalist and human rights lawyer who in late 2021, realised that the female athletes of Afghanistan were in grave danger. What happened next saved countless lives, brought into question the obligations of large sporting bodies and preserved the fundamental right of women to play sport.
You can read more about the escape of the female athletes and their families here: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-23/afghanistan-female-athletes-find-refuge-in-australia/100398388

Sportish: Do you want to pay to watch ALL sport?
Look, we get it. Not everything can be free. But when it comes to key sporting moments, don't you think everyone should be able to watch? In a society where sharing a cultural moment is becoming increasingly rare, do we want it to be harder?
NOT US! So this week, we spoke to the Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young about what is happening with media laws in this country, and why you should have a chat to your local MP and check out a petition to keep sports viewing free in Australia.

Sportish: All That Glitters - Joe Williams
Joe Williams grew up in the NSW country town of Cowra, lived for Saturday morning sport and dreamed of becoming a footy player. And he did - he went on to play in the NRL and then later became a world champion boxer. But through the progression of his life and his career, he realised that sport was really just the conversation starter.
Oh how I loved this chat. Joe is incredibly generous and doesn't shy away from his ongoing personal work with addiction (Joe has been sober for 18 years) and mental health. He also talks beautifully about aboriginal culture and how his understanding of what that means has evolved and deepened over time.
You can follow Joe @joewilliams_tew and check out more on his website https://www.joewilliams.com.au/.

Sportish: What on earth is happening with Brisbane 2032
For the last 18 months, the momentum towards Brisbane 2032 has felt, well, a bit stuck. But with a tiny glimmer of hope around the corner, we asked Olympic and Paralympic Games mega fan David Lutteral (Luttsy) from Nova and Brisbane Olympic's podcast, Towards the Games, to join us for a chat about the incredible opportunity that is coming for us faster than we think.
(Heads up, there is a little bit of swearing in this ep. And a ridiculous amount of laughter).
You can catch Luttsy ever weekday morning on Nova 106.9 in Brisbane, on his podcast with Towards the Games with Chis Jones, and on socials @luttsy and @towardsthegames

Sportish: So What Happened Next? Lucy Small
In 2021, Lucy Small won a premier Sydney longboard surf competition and at the presentation, found out that she was receiving less than half of her male counterpart. In a split second moment, she decided to use her acceptance speech to point out the inequity of the situation. What happened next was pretty special.
