Athlete Emily Campbell joins Miquita and Andi for a salt fish salad, pickled cucumber & jalapeño broth, sweet potato fritters, roast garlic oil, and seared wagyu beef - a huge menu because it's not every day you have an Olympian in the house!
The three of them discuss how Emily has become the most successful British Weightlifter of modern times, and her hopes for Paris 2024. Emily reflects on her route into weightlifting, the incredible support of her parents and a special teacher, and on the struggle for funding in the early days. There are also stories of growing up in Nottingham, finding your path, how random drug tests an play havoc with your love life, and - speaking of which - what *really* goes down in the Olympic Village when the games are over, and the fun begins!
