This week on Sidelined, Soupy, Demetra and Jacs share their personal sporting highlights and this week there is a rather intriguing sporting lowlight! This week’s exciting sporting headlines include the upcoming Big Bash League final with the Perth Scorchers playing for their fifth championship! We’re joined by Pez, President of the Melbourne Chargers to talk rugby with the breaking news of Campbell Johnstone, former All Black, publicly coming out age 43. In Demetra’s Drama, we have an exclusive with tennis legend Billie Jean King at the Australian Open Glam Slam. Billie Jean generously shares the importance of Pride events, her love for Australia, how she became No 1, how the Original Nine changed women’s tennis forever, and triumphing after the difficult journey of her forced outing. Soupy provides another Health Tip of the Week and we explore another of Soupy’s Surprising Sports which is a complete balls up! In A Chat With Jacs we chat with the inspirational Josh Cavallo, Adelaide United defender and the only openly gay top-flight male footballer in the world about life after he announced to the world in October 2021 “I’m a footballer and I’m proud to be gay”.
