The One with Gus Kenworthy
The Olympic silver medallist and LGBTQ+ icon joins us for a conversation you can't miss.
An Olympic silver medallist, a multiple time world medallist at events around the globe, an elite freestyle skier, a social media sensation 鈥� and with more than a million followers on social media, Gus Kenworthy鈥檚 profile is almost unrivalled in the world of sport.
He鈥檚 also one of the most high-profile gay sportspeople in the world 鈥� and, after his retirement following the Winter Olympics in 2022, is still committed to sharing his story in a way that will help people the most.
We鈥檙e delighted to have Gus onto the podcast to talk about his life and his journey 鈥� and it鈥檚 an absolute cracker of a conversation that you can鈥檛 miss.
We talk about how Gus got into skiing; his journey in the sport; his experiences with his own sexuality; his iconic coming out; inspiring others 鈥� and so, so much more.
It鈥檚 funny, it鈥檚 real, it鈥檚 genuine 鈥� and it鈥檚 everything you could hope for with a man like Gus.
And then after that, we鈥檒l hear how I got on at this weekend鈥檚 FA Cup Final at Wembley when we lit up the stadium in the Pride colours and caught up with the Rainbow Devils and Canal Street Blues.
