This is the story of a decade long campaign to make contact sport safe.
In this episode, we welcome award winning author and journalist Sam Peters alongside Rugby Union World Cup winner Lewis Moody.
Sam has just won The Sports Writing Award at the Charles Tyrwhitt Book Awards for Concussed: Sport's Uncomfortable Truth, not only a fine piece of writing, but moreover a recognition for an ongoing campaign Sam has been fighting for over a decade.
Lewis won pretty well everything in Rugby Union, domestic and European titles with Leicester Tigers, British Lions caps, and most notably the World Cup with England in 2003. He himself suffered multiple serious concussions in his career; and this is the subject of today.
Show notes:
- Sam’s 10+ year campaign to save rugby
- Lewis’s own terrible concussion history
- The tragic stories of those who’ve suffered
- Mental health + concussion
- Resistance and conflicts of interest from the inside
- Grassroots and the future of rugby
