Ep 5EP 5: Commies village life, local radio stations and fresh trims for Rome
Today Tom and Alex finish their conversation on the Commonwealth Games discussing some of the athlete village antics and the post Games rush. Alex travels into London with no shirt for his first away day of the year before attention turns to European Champs in Rome and an away day for TWF.
Ep 4EP 4: Medals, more medals and our favourite Sandwell DJ
EP4 sees the boys discuss a hectic week in the Sandwell Aquatics Centre as Tom competes for Team England at The Commonwealth Games. There's talk of the seven medals he picked up, insight from each of the races and some more light-hearted Commies chat for good measure.
Ep 3EP 3: Commonwealth Games build up, TWF's first guests and Nauru
EP 3 sees the boys discuss the build up to the Commonwealth Games and Tom's time in the athlete's village so far. Alex delves into the history of the games with a few fun facts and questions - do you know what the smallest state in the Commonwealth is? The Freestyle section of the podcast sees James Guy and Freya Anderson join in and of course the all important listeners too (which hopefully both James and Freya are anyways...)!!!
Ep 2EP2: Graduations, an MBE and Princess Anne at fly-half
EP 2 sees the boys discuss Deano's trip to Buckingham Palace, Sutt's graduation and some exciting Pod progress. Sorry for the delay in release and slight issues with audio... I guess we can ask Team England to improve their WIFI speed at the Commonwealth Games holding camp in Loughborough!!!
Ep 1EP1: Shut your suitcase
EP 1 sees the boys relive the Suttons' family party, bumping into Starkie, a tough week of training for Deano and some introductory pod chat.
