Off The Podium - An Olympics Podcast

The World Cup is over and that means it's time to back into our weekly athlete interviews and this week we are pumped and excited to bring you an incredible interview today that will definitely make you go gobbledygook as we chat with Olympic gold & bronze medallist Zac Stubblety-Cook about his incredible career and amazing Olympic experiences at Tokyo 2020! We find out from Zac how a fear of the water actually helped get him into swimming and what it was about it that made him pursue it as a career. We also find out how the Commonwealth Games in 2018 was a massive turning point for his career and just how close he was to stepping away from the sport after the Gold Coast. Added to this we learn about what it is that has made him so dominant in the 200m breaststroke over the last 2 years, which former Olympic champion he roomed with in Tokyo who helped him out with his Olympic experiences and just why he loves coffee so much and how he could potentially become a World Champion with it. It's an incredibly open and honest chat that you won't want to miss!
