    Sep 13 2022

    To mark the end of Series One of The Breakdown, Orla Chennaoui puts co-host Greg Rutherford in the interviewee seat for a special bonus episode...


    In what could be a therapy session, the 2012 Olympic champion looks back in candour on the childhood experiences which propelled him into the world of sport and shares the sliding doors moment when as a tearaway teenager, he could have died ‘car surfing’.


    We take a deep dive into the trials and tribulations of his career, and explore the chip on his shoulder that drove - and still drives - him to strive for more… “I think no matter what walk of life you’re in and what you’ve done - be it in sport, business, whatever it is - you can try new things and challenge yourself”.

  • Barry Hearn
    Sep 6 2022

    In the latest episode of The Breakdown, Orla Chennaoui and Greg Rutherford pay a visit to one of the most successful operators in the history of the British sport industry, Barry Hearn.


    Renowned for his revolutionary promotion of snooker, darts and boxing, Barry - now aged 74 - draws distinct parallels between sport and business and looks back light-heartedly at the many lessons of success he’s learned throughout his accomplished career: “My candle is not the brightest in the room, but it burns longer than anyone else.”


    He also opens up about his relationships with two hugely important men in his life; son Eddie and snooker legend Ronnie O’Sullivan…

    Aug 30 2022

    Amy Williams, MBE joins Greg and Orla for an enlightening and honest account about life as a retired athlete and working mum.


    “I actually love being spontaneous and I love not having the routine, and then I know in certain elements of life, you have to.”


    The former skeleton racer and Olympic gold medalist also reflects on her career, the importance of trusting your gut and knowing the ‘right’ time to walk away.


    Then based on her own personal experiences, Amy shares her approaches for managing anxiety (with an improvised Box Breathing demo) and we dig into colour personalities as a technique to better understand ourselves and others…
