Welcome to the Play the Game Podcast

Play the Game Podcast is a new podcast about the people, powers, and politics shaping sport.

The podcast brings you voices, stories, and debates that rarely get enough space in the world of sport.

For almost three decades, Play the Game has worked to create space for open, critical, and informed dialogue about international sport through conferences, analyses, and journalism.

Now, we are bringing that work to your headphones.

In the podcast, you will hear from investigative journalists, researchers, athletes, whistleblowers, sports leaders, decision-makers, and others who help uncover what is happening behind the scenes of international sport.

Episodes will include interviews, narrated articles, conference presentations, and critical debates on some of the biggest challenges facing sport today — from corruption, match-fixing, doping, and human rights to geopolitics, gambling, sustainability, athlete welfare, and abuse in sport.

Some episodes will give new life to important material from Play the Game’s conferences and website: presentations, articles, and conversations that deserve to travel further than the room where they were first heard. Others will open up new conversations about the questions that sport still struggles to answer.

Play the Game Podcast is for everyone who believes that sport deserves scrutiny, transparency, and open debate.
