We don’t know about you, but we don’t think there’s ever been a more important time to elevate the voices of the trans community in sport.

At a time when it feels as if trans athletes across the globe are being talked ABOUT, we decided it was appropriate to use our platform to show what happens when you talk TO trans men and women in sport instead – about their goals; about what sport brings to their lives; and the ups, downs and in-betweens that they’ve experienced, on and off the pitch.

So, that's what we've done on the podcast today.

From rugby to wrestling to football at all levels, we’ve compiled some brilliant stories from the podcast’s back-catalogue featuring just a snapshot of the amazing trans individuals who have joined us on the podcast over the years.

We hope you enjoy them, that you share them – and that we can help spread some much-needed trans positivity and joy with today’s episode!

As a gay stuntman breaking barriers in Hollywood, Nicholas Daines has turned his gymnastics background into an asset that has made him one of the most sought-after individuals for some of the big screen’s biggest blockbuster stunts.

He’s been in films like The Batman, Wicked and Indiana Jones – as Nicholas (a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community) turned his life as an elite-level gymnast and diver into a career in movies that few people can ever have dreamed off.

It's been too long since we've last had Nicholas on the show - so it's great to have him back on the podcast today to talk about his life in movies, in sport, and so much more besides.

From visibility for the queer community in Hollywood to his journey with his sexuality, it’s a cracking conversation with a guest that we think you’ll love!

For more than a decade, Steve Dean has been part of the professional wrestling scene in the UK.

As both a competitor and an official, few people know their way round the ring more – so when Steve dropped us a message to say he was up for sharing the story of his life as a wrestler alongside his journey with his own sexuality, we were always going to say ‘yes’ to getting him on for a chat.

So, if you love wrestling, you’re going to love this chat – as we talk about the ins and outs of the British scene; finding who you are inside the ring; and the hidden ways in which a referee is often the secret sauce that keeps a good match going.

And if wrestling isn’t your thing, don’t worry – you’ll love our chat with Steve about how he came to understand his own place in the LGBTQ+ community; the importance of visibility; and how he came to get to where he is in the industry.

We’re always grateful when someone trusts us to help them share their story for the first time, and that’s exactly what Steve has done today!
