"WTF is body literacy?"… I hear you ask. Well, that's a good question which gets explored in this chat with Exercise Physiologist (and women's health guru), Unna Goldsworthy. We also Riff about the Olympics, the non-existent financial rewards for the athletes, the evolution of sport science, race walking (ouch), interviewers shoving microphones in the faces of an athletes at the worst times, how our priorities shift as we age and lots more. Enjoy.

#1603 Body Literacy - Unna Goldsworthy

I'm tied up today, so with the Olympics currently in full swing, I thought we'd revisit my chat with two-time Olympian Harry Garside, who just finished his campaign in Paris. It's fair to say that Harry's Olympic dream didn't eventuate this time and while he was bitterly disappointed with his loss, it's also fair to say that he definitely gained some new fans with his humble, emotional and vulnerable post-fight response. He literally apologised to the entire nation (not that he needed to, of course), saying that "Australia is such a sporting nation and I'm so sorry, I honestly, I feel like a failure right now" and shortly after, he broke down in tears, unable to speak. If you haven't seen any of the post-fight footage, I encourage you to find it. A great athlete but an even better human. Love him.

#1602 The Agony & Ecstasy Of Sport - Harry Garside

Well this claim (the one in the title) from Gillespo might set the metaphoric cat among the pigeons! This was a fun chat covering hidden sugars, crap breakfast cereals, why sugar is super addictive, athletes who gained massive weight post-career only to lose it and successfully return to competition (Mark Occhilupo, et.al), the link between giving up booze and sugar, David's forty kilo weight loss (OMG!), why you should avoid barbeque sauce and lots more. Enjoy.

#1601 Why Fructose Is Worse Than Table Sugar - David Gillespie

In this fun chat, Tiff and I talk about being on ‘lipstick duty' (all will be revealed), the importance of having an unreasonable friend, the skill of giving and receiving feedback, navigating the complicated social terrain of different personalities, proclivities and expectations, knowing when and where to have the ‘hard conversation', being more interested in someone's long-term well-being than their short-term emotional state, best friends and lots more. Enjoy.
