Did you know the government doesn’t fund deaf athletes, because they aren’t allowed to compete at the Paralympics?
For 100 years now they’ve been holding their own competition – the Deaflympics – where referee whistles are replaced by flag signals, and starting guns by flashing lights. But no Paralympics means no funding. All because they were born with the so-called “wrong” disability. Team GB medal hopefuls Charlotte Gower and Nathan Young join Gabby.
Plus we look back at the best bits from this week on The Sports Agents from the NBA gambling scandal featuring the mafia and x-ray glasses with Andy Hughes (Co-Host of The Crime Agents podcast) and The Athletic’s Mike Vorkunov; to a love letter to the Ashes with some hilarious stories from Phil Tufnell.
