Episode notes

Happy Tuesday (!!!) to you. A huge thank you to everyone tuning in today for EPISODE 12 of the QuaranTea Break Podcast. We’re coming to your ears a day later than usual this week – but it’s with a big guest, so I hope you can forgive us. Sitting down for a virtual natter is broadcaster and TV presenter JAKE HUMPHREY. I am absolutely dying to get into this one, because I think you’re going to love this episode a lot.


It’s such a positive chat, and it’s probably the most wide-ranging conversation we’ve ever had on the podcast. We talk about dealing with social media and turning it into a force for good. Jake opens up about Black Lives Matter and how the role of the footballer has changed. We, of course, talk about football in general (recorded just before Liverpool’s title win after Manchester City lost on BT Sport #YNWA!) and his thoughts about its return. We also talk about The High Performance Podcast, with some exclusives about his guests for series 2. And loads more – this conversation goes to so many interesting places. It’s a longer tea break than usual, but I hope you’ll agree, it’s so worth it.


We also chat EXCLUSIVELY for the first time ever about his new venture in planet-positive glasses and sunglasses Coral Eyewear. Launched by young entrepreneur George Bailey, like the best ideas, it’s unique, brilliant and slap-yourself-in-face-why-aren’t-we-doing-this already. If you want to support this beautiful idea, Coral Eyewear’s Kickstarter is now live with some great rewards.
