We take a trip to the 1960's to review two sporting events of poignance and resistance. Jonathan talks about the 1967 Tour de France, where Tommy Simpson - arguably Britain's most influential cyclist - pushes himself to the limit, and beyond. Shane recants the story of Vera Caslavska, the Czechoslovakian gymnast, who used the medal rostrum at the 1968 Olympics as a platform of political protest. Before all this, prompted by an email from Chris Hale, we briefly touch on the issue of Adam Goodes, and racism in Aussie Rules football.
