The One with Bruce Mouat

Episode notes

You know how you know that Scottish curler Bruce Mouat is one of the nicest men in sport?

Because the Olympic silver medallist, world champion and multiple-time European gold medallist had literally just got back from competing in Canada when he shook off the jet-lag and joined us on the podcast for a catch-up that has been long overdue.

To be honest, a lot has happened in the years since Bruce was last on the show – including completing a full set of world championship medals after leading Scotland to their first men’s curling world title since 2009 in one of Bruce’s most iconic moments in the sport.

Bruce has also been appearing at Pride events and continuing to fly the flag, both for curling and as an ambassador for the LGBTQ+ community – and it’s brilliant to have him back on the show!

This is a fascinating chat – about the media whirlwind that follows an Olympics; about being visible and dealing with the aftermath; about inspiring others; about being open to help others; about what drives him forward as an athlete… oh, and about the joy and challenges of playing with your partner!

We make no bones about the fact that we love Bruce – and after hearing this episode, you’ll understand why!
