Naomi McCarthy (née Castle) - Naomi McCarthy (née Castle) made history as part of the first women’s water polo team to ever win OLYmpic gold. Women’s water polo was introduced to the Games in 2000, and in this episode, Naomi tells how she and her Aussie Stingers teammate Yvette Higgins stole the gold from the USA in the final two minutes of the game!
Naomi talks about the intense week of competition, as well as the aftermath: everyone including the coach jumped (or was pulled!) into the pool, and Naomi spent the rest of the Games celebrating in Sydney and supporting her fellow Aussie athletes who were still to compete. Nat tells Naomi that watching the Stingers win gold from her Bondi hotel room inspired her to do the same with her beach volleyball partner Kerri Pottharst the following day.

OPENING CEREMONY - July 24 2020
Today marks what would have been the opening ceremony of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and without knowing who Australia's Flag Bearer would be, Nat Cook saw the opportunity to call on Australian Olympian, Anna Meares - An Australian Cyclist and Rio 2016 Olympic Flag Bearer.
Nat delves into Anna's experience as the Australian Flag Bearer at the opening ceremony of RIO 2016 and how that geared her up for winning her medals at the Olympics. An experience like no other Anna shares her insights, setbacks and sets the stage for the remaining athletes as we embark on the journey with some of Australia's top athletes.

I am excited to announce the release of my new podcast series that I have been busy working on during COVID-19! Over the past couple of months, I have been in the recording studio interviewing some well-known Australian sporting icons.
From July 24 to August 9, I will be interviewing some of Australia's top athletes including Anna Meares (Cycling), Sally Fitzgibbons (Surfing), Taliqua Clancy (Volleyball), Mitch Larkin (Swimming) and Dane Bird-Smith (Walking) on what would have been their day at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
Tune in to find out how these incredible athletes plan, prepare and visualise their success to make it a reality and how they stay on top of their game. You'll hear unique insights into each athlete's personal journey to making it onto the Aussie Olympic team.
No matter whether you’re a sports fan, the athletes’ incredible resilience, honesty about their struggles, celebration of their successes, and how they stay motivated to achieve their goals will leave you feeling inspired.
