The One with Jess Fishlock

Wales' most capped player on LGBTQ rights, relaxing, and managing Wales in the future?

It's no exaggeration to say Jess Fishlock is a footballing legend.

She's Wales' most-capped ever player; she's played around the world, winning the Champions League twice; and in 2018, she was made an MBE for her services to football and the LGBTQ+ community.

Jess is rehabbing in the United States at the moment, after suffering an injury to her ACL while playing with her club Reign FC - and it's from her base in Washington that she joins us for this episode of the podcast.

On the agenda - her footballing highlights; LGBTQ+ rights at the moment; whether she'd get into management in the future; and how she switches off!

We loved having her on the podcast (and have wanted to for a long time!) - and we're really grateful she took the time to make it happen.
