The Sports Agents

Will Paris 2024 be the best Olympics ever?

Jul 30, 2024

The Sports Agents are live from Team GB House for the first of a series of podcasts over the 2024 Paris Olympic Games...

Gabby & Mark reflect on an audacious opening ceremony, the incredible atmosphere around the French capital and some of the highlights of the first few days.

Plus, Team GB synchronised divers Scarlett Mew Jensen and Noah Williams join us to explain what it really takes to dive for an Olympic medal. Does it hurt hitting the water from the 10M board, Tom Daley's legacy and if winning a medal really changes an athlete's life overnight.

Later, the sports agents relive *that* Roy Keane moment at 2002 World Cup after news that it is being turned into a new film starring Steve Coogan!
