Stage Door Athletic

After four days crossing America by train, I finally arrive in San Francisco.There are ferries crossing the bay, cable cars climbing impossible hills and the Golden Gate Bridge emerging through the fog. But before I've even checked into my hotel, a chance encounter with a man in a Germany shirt sends me in an entirely different direction.One conversation becomes another. A recommendation leads to a beer garden in Hayes Valley. Suddenly I'm surrounded by German supporters watching their World Cup match, sharing stories about Hamburg, Berlin, Sheffield Wednesday, Japanese-American communities and life in one of America's most fascinating cities.This episode isn't really about football. It's about what happens when you follow curiosity instead of a plan.And, naturally, it ends with currywurst and a stein of beer in California.Host: Rob Shaw CameronFollow:  https://www.instagram.com/fan48podFAN48 – The World Cup Fans Podcast#WorldCup2026 #TravelPodcast #FootballCulture #SanFrancisco #Fan48

What happens when you're stuck on a train with strangers for nearly twenty hours?Leaving Seattle behind, I board the Amtrak Coast Starlight bound for San Francisco. There's Mount Rainier on one side, the Pacific coastline on the other, and somewhere in between a carriage full of people I'd never otherwise meet.An Amish family returning from a bear hunt. A Kenyan business analyst. A chemist touring American universities. A melancholy young farmer writing poetry about the world. A Chelsea-supporting PhD student from Bangladesh. And, inevitably, my ongoing battle with people who recline their seats.As the miles roll by, conversations emerge. Not because anyone planned them, but because a train creates something we seem to have less and less of: shared time, shared space and a shared focus.This episode isn't really about trains. It's about what happens when people stop staring at screens and start staring out of the same window.FAN48 follows my journey across the USA, Mexico and Canada during the 2026 World Cup, trying to meet a supporter from all 48 competing nations, one conversation at a time.Host: Rob Shaw CameronFAN48: www.fan48.infoInstagram: @fan48podWhatsApp: +44 7518 715948#Amtrak #TrainTravel #TravelStories #HumanConnection #SanFrancisco

Seattle wasn't really on my World Cup radar.I knew about coffee, Frasier and the Space Needle, but within a few hours of arriving I found a city that feels completely transformed by the tournament.Mexican fans fill Pioneer Square after becoming the first team to qualify for the knockout stages. Seattle locals give me their honest assessment of life in the city. And after setting myself the mission of finding Australian supporters before USA v Australia, I meet two World Cup veterans from Melbourne who explain why following football around the world has become an addiction.Then things take a slightly unexpected turn.Because somehow I end up chatting to Australia's first professional Power Slap athlete, standing beside a Seattle fire engine draped in an Australian flag.Only at a World Cup.Fan Nation #12: Australia

The World Cup takes me from the fog-shrouded streets of Newfoundland to a sports bar in Edmonton.In St John's, I discover a place shaped by fishing, Irish heritage and the spirit celebrated in Come From Away. In Edmonton, the tournament feels more distant. The games are on, but hockey still dominates the screens.Then I meet Iraj.Born in Iran and raised in Canada, he's working behind the bar when a casual chat turns into one of the most fascinating conversations of the journey so far. We talk about immigration, identity, technology, politics, belonging, free speech and what it means to call a country home.We don't agree on everything. That's what makes it interesting.Along the way there are iceberg beers, towns called Dildo, a frantic attempt to follow England's opening match from 35,000 feet, and more evidence that the best stories often arrive when you're not looking for them.#Canada #Newfoundland #Edmonton #ImmigrationDebate #IdentityAndBelonging #IranianCanadian #TravelStories #SportsBarConversations #WorldCupJourney #HumanStories #CulturalExchange #ConversationNotCommentary #RoadTripPodcast #FanCulture #PeopleOfTheWorldHost: Rob Shaw CameronFAN48: @Fan48PodWhatsApp: +44 7518 715948

Toronto wasn't where I expected to find the next chapter of FAN48.After swapping Miami sunshine for Canadian rain, I find myself in a downtown sports bar wondering whether I've already grown tired of giant screens and manufactured fan zones. But as ever, the story isn't in the football. It's in the people.An Ecuadorian supporter and her Canadian fiancée explain why representing a small nation on the World Cup stage matters. A bartender reflects on how football is bringing strangers together across one of the world's most multicultural cities. A Qatari engineering student wrestles with what home means after moving halfway around the world. And somewhere in between, I discover a quiet Toronto bar where the football is simply happening in the background and the conversations take centre stage.This is FAN48 at its simplest: no pundits, no tactics boards, just people gathering around the same game for very different reasons.Host: Rob Shaw CameronFAN48: fan48.infoInstagram: @fan48podWhatsApp: +44 7518 715948#Toronto #Ecuador #WorldCupFans #CulturalConnections #FAN48

Miami's World Cup fan park is officially open, and FAN48 heads into the crowds.First up, two Saudi Arabian supporters explain what it's like to follow football in a country transformed by investment, ambition and a growing domestic league. They're travelling thousands of miles to follow their team across the United States and dreaming of another famous upset after beating Argentina in 2022.Then comes one of those wonderfully random World Cup moments. A Swiss football fan spots an Exeter Chiefs vest in a Miami crowd and rushes over to say hello. What follows is a conversation that somehow links Switzerland, Devon, rugby, volunteering and the biggest football tournament on earth.Along the way, Scottish supporters share what it means to finally see their nation back on the World Cup stage, while Rob explores the sights, sounds and surprises of Miami's waterfront fan park as Brazil fans begin to arrive in force.No pundits.

Scotland haven't just waited four years for this World Cup. For many supporters, they've waited a lifetime.In this episode of FAN48, Rob meets two generations of Scotland fans preparing for the tournament in very different ways.First, filmmaker Ged Fitzsimmons looks back on Euro 2024, sharing stories from Germany, the friendships that make football trips unforgettable, and why the game itself is sometimes only part of the reason people travel.Then Rob dials in to Boston, where Scotland supporter Duncan Mackenzie is counting down the hours until Scotland's opening match against Haiti. From packed pubs and Tartan Army gatherings to hopes of finally seeing Scotland reach the knockout stages, Duncan captures the excitement of a generation experiencing their first World Cup.A conversation about football, friendship, travel, and what happens when a nation turns up together.Host: Rob Shaw CameronInstagram: @Fan48PodWhatsApp: +44 7518 715948#WorldCup2026 #FootballFans #PodcastRecommendation #TravelPodcast #Fan48

The World Cup finally arrives in the United States.Rob heads to an Irish pub in Miami where members of the American Outlaws supporters group have gathered to watch the USA's opening match against Paraguay. What starts as an evening of chants, goals and questionable Guinness turns into a fascinating conversation about identity, belonging and what it actually means to support the USA.Along the way there are encounters with Colombian-Americans, Venezuelan football obsessives, debates about World Cup hosts, reflections on patriotism, and a reminder that the United States isn't one story at all, but fifty very different ones.As the USA begin their tournament with a win, FAN48 discovers that football can still create the kind of conversations that rarely happen anywhere else.No pundits. No players.

Miami Beach. The opening day of the 2026 World Cup.Rob heads into the crowds gathering along South Beach, where Colombian yellow seems to outnumber every other colour, Mexican fans are everywhere, and football has temporarily become the centre of the city.From beachside fan zones and packed sports bars to rooftop reflections overlooking the Atlantic, this episode captures the atmosphere of a World Cup host city finding its rhythm.Along the way, Rob meets Dylan, a Bolivian football coach chasing a new life in Miami, a Haitian supporter who sees football as something spiritual, and a Uruguayan family attending their third consecutive World Cup.There are conversations about identity, migration, fandom and belonging. About why people travel. About why football matters. And about what happens when thousands of strangers gather around the same game.No pundits. No players. Just people.  Host: Rob Shaw CameronGuest: Dylan CusicanquiFAN48: fan48.infoInstagram: @fan48podWhatsApp: +44 7518 715948#FAN48 #WorldCup2026 #PodcastRecommendation #TravelPodcast #FootballFans #SoccerFans #SportsPodcast #Storytelling #IndependentPodcast #NewPodcastLaunch #ListenNow #PodcastCommunity #WorldCupJourney #GlobalStories #FootballCulture

The World Cup starts tomorrow.But tonight, football can wait.After a day wandering Miami's colourful Wynwood district, Rob heads into Little Havana in search of fans, stories and perhaps the first signs of tournament fever.Instead he finds something else.Cuban music drifts through the streets. Dominoes click in the park. A packed bar watches the NBA Finals beneath a giant pineapple-shaped stage. Mojitos are flowing, tacos are exceptional, and nobody seems particularly interested in football just yet.It's a reminder that host cities don't stop being themselves when the World Cup arrives. Before the crowds, the chants and the opening ceremony, Miami is simply Miami.A small travel diary from the eve of the biggest sporting event on earth.FAN48 – The World Cup Fans PodcastOne tournament.

Before heading to Miami for the opening game of the World Cup, Rob finds New York obsessed with another sporting drama: the Knicks' return to the NBA Finals.From Madison Square Garden to packed bars and watch parties across Manhattan, this episode explores what happens when a city becomes consumed by sport.Then, in a taxi from JFK, FAN48 supporter #1 arrives unexpectedly.Ismail is Algerian, lives in New York, has sisters in France and Spain, a mother back home in Algeria, and a story that feels inseparable from the city he now calls home. Over a conversation covering football, migration, betting markets, public libraries and the lure of New York, Rob discovers one of the unexpected joys of this journey: every fan changes the way you watch the tournament.And suddenly, Algeria's World Cup campaign feels a little more personal.Featuring FAN48 supporter #1: Ismail (Algeria).#WorldCup2026 #FootballCulture #SportsPodcast #TravelPodcast #StorytellingFAN48 - The World Cup Fans Podcast.One tournament.

The journey to FAN48 begins.Three hours after leaving home, Rob finds himself reflecting on identity, belonging and human connection after an unexpected conversation with Vladimir, a taxi driver who fled the former Yugoslavia nearly thirty years ago.What starts as a routine airport transfer becomes the first meaningful encounter of a project built around meeting people from all 48 nations competing at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.With a cancelled flight, a delayed departure and a fresh perspective, Rob considers what it means to stay curious, seek connection and begin a six-week journey across the United States, Mexico and Canada.A travel diary from Heathrow Airport.

After three years, countless sporting adventures and more questionable football opinions than anyone really needed, Stage Door Athletic reaches its final chapter.Rob is joined by Jack and James for one last conversation in the Clubhouse before FAN48 begins.Together they look back on some of their favourite memories from the podcast, from cricket finals days and Muay Thai in Thailand to Brian Blessed, West Brom frustrations and World Cup nostalgia.They discuss their first World Cup memories, iconic kits, England's chances in 2026, the challenges and excitement of a World Cup hosted across the USA, Mexico and Canada, and what makes football tournaments matter long after the final whistle.Most importantly, they reflect on what Stage Door Athletic became: a podcast about people, stories and shared experiences.As one journey ends, another begins.FAN48 will follow Rob across North America during the 2026 FIFA World Cup with one mission:To meet a fan from each of the 48 competing nations.No pundits.

The journey starts here.FAN48 is a World Cup podcast about people, places and stories. Across summer 2026, host Rob Shaw Cameron will travel through the USA, Mexico and Canada with one mission: to meet a fan from each of the 48 nations competing at the biggest football tournament on earth.In this trailer episode, Rob introduces the idea behind the series, the road ahead, and why FAN48 isn't about pundits, players or tactics — it's about identity, belonging, travel, memory, rivalry, connection, and the people who live the World Cup from the stands, fan parks, bars and city streets.No pundits. No players. Just people.Are you travelling to the tournament? Part of a supporters' group? Supporting a nation with a story worth hearing? Or do you know someone we should meet along the way?We'd love to hear from you.Get in touch:

Ahead of season two of Smoggie Queens, Rob heads to The Clubhouse with actor Peter McPherson for a funny, honest and surprisingly deep conversation about identity, performance, body image and growing up queer in the North East.From working men's clubs in Hartlepool to drama school reinvention, self-tapes, soap operas, gym culture and the politics of who gets to tell which stories, this one moves from laugh-out-loud backstage gossip to genuinely thoughtful debate.Peter talks about returning home through Smoggie Queens, learning BSL, navigating the acting industry as a gay performer, and why the things we try hardest to hide are often the things that make us unique. There's also plenty of chat about Corrie, Hollyoaks, Gregg's, amateur sports clubs and the strange world of being “shown off” in your parents' local working men's club.Warm, sharp, camp and unexpectedly moving — just like the best nights at the clubhouse bar. #StageDoorAthletic #SmoggieQueens #BBCThree #PeterMcPherson #LGBTQStories #QueerTV #BritishComedy #NorthernVoices #ActorLife #BehindTheScenes #TheatrePodcast #TVPodcast #Greggs #ChosenFamily #BSL #BritishActors #PhilDunning #QueerCultureHosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronEdited by: Rob Shaw CameronGuest: Peter McPherson@jackloxton1 @robshawcameron@peter_mcpherson_Stage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFMNeed Your Love So Bad - Fleetwood Mac ℗ This compilation 2009 Sony Music Entertainment UK

This week's episode starts in a slightly unconventional setting… a Canary Wharf terrace, a flat white, and a mild existential crisis about the price of a pint.From there, the conversation opens up into something much bigger.After a trip to Wembley, Rob and Jack reflect on what football has become - from the electric, human energy of Leeds fans to the growing sense that the modern game is drifting away from its roots. Is football losing its soul, or simply evolving into something else? And what does that say about sport, business, and the people at the centre of it all?Along the way, they take a sharp turn into the world of theatre and performance, asking a deceptively simple question:Do you have to be difficult to be great?From elite athletes to leading actors, they explore the tension between competitiveness and kindness, ego and collaboration, and whether being at the top of your game demands a harder edge - or whether that's just an excuse we've come to accept.It's a wide-ranging, honest conversation about pressure, professionalism, and the environments we create - on stage, on the pitch, and at work.And, as ever, it ends with a reminder that behind all the noise, these are still human stories - flawed, complicated, and occasionally brilliant.Like, follow and share! @StageDoorAthletic#LeedsUnited#WBA#PremierLeague#FACup#Championship#EFLHosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronEdited by: Rob Shaw Cameron@jackloxton1 @robshawcameronStage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFMExpensive Coffee - Marine Club ℗ 2024 4470933 Records DKDon't Be a Dick - Bowling for Soup ℗ 2016 Brando Records and Que-So Records

In Part Two of our London Marathon special, Kitty Scott-Claus stays in The Clubhouse for a deeper conversation about life beyond the start line.After discussing marathon preparation in Part One, Rob and Kitty turn to Kitty's journey as a performer — from growing up in Sutton Coldfield and training in musical theatre, to discovering drag almost by accident and becoming one of the standout stars of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.Kitty explains how drag first entered her life through a Girls Aloud tribute night in Camden, why the Spice Girls were a huge inspiration, and how Drag Race unexpectedly transformed her career. She reflects on competing on the show, returning for Global All Stars, and navigating a drag scene that has become increasingly competitive. The conversation also explores the reality behind the glamour — the graft required to build a career after Drag Race, handling social media criticism, and staying visible in a fast-moving entertainment world. Kitty also shares highlights from her career so far, including reaching the final of Celebrity MasterChef, performing in the West End production Death Drop, and touring the UK with fellow Drag Race star Cheryl Hole in their live show “The Cheryl & Kitty Show.”With the London Marathon just days away, Kitty also talks about how swimming, running and fitness have become an important part of her life alongside performing.If you'd like to support Kitty's fundraising for Alzheimer's Research UK, or see her live on tour in The Cheryl & Kitty Show, you can find links below or via our linktr.ee/stagedoorathleticDonate to Alzheimer's Research UK - https://2026tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/kitty-scott-clausBook tickets for The Cheryl & Kitty Show - https://www.aegpresents.co.uk/event/the-cheryl-kitty-show/Like, follow and share your Marathon memories @StageDoorAthletic#KittyScottClaus#DragRaceUK#LondonMarathon#CelebrityMasterChef#CherylAndKittyShowHosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronGuests: Kitty Scott-ClausEdited by: Rob Shaw CameronStage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFM5, 6, 7, 8 - Steps ℗ 1998 Sony Music Entertainment UK LimitedIslands In the Stream - Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton ℗ Compilation 2007 SONY BMG MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT

The London Marathon is just around the corner, and in this special two-part series from The Clubhouse, Rob is joined by two brilliant guests to explore the challenge of running the famous 26.2 miles.First up is Drag Race UK superstar Kitty Scott-Claus, who will be lining up in Greenwich next weekend to run the London Marathon for the second time, raising money for Alzheimer's Research UK. Kitty shares the story behind her marathon preparation — from the training and motivation to the nerves that come with taking on one of the world's most iconic races.Joining the conversation is Stage Door Athletic favourite Bob Diggles, producer of our upcoming World Cup coverage and a five-time London Marathon finisher, who brings some invaluable experience to the table. Bob shares his five top tips for tackling the marathon, offering practical advice for anyone preparing to run the race themselves.Whether you're running the London Marathon, supporting friends along the route, or simply fascinated by the theatre of endurance sport, this episode offers a brilliant mix of entertainment, insight and practical wisdom ahead of race day.In Part Two next week, Kitty stays in The Clubhouse as we dive deeper into her career - from her journey into drag and life in the Drag Race Runiverse.To support Kitty's fundraising for Alzheimer's Research UK, or see her live on tour in The Cheryl & Kitty Show, click below or linktr.ee/stagedoorathleticDonate to Alzheimer's Research UK - https://2026tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/kitty-scott-clausBook tickets for The Cheryl & Kitty Show - https://www.aegpresents.co.uk/event/the-cheryl-kitty-show/Like, follow and share your Marathon memories @StageDoorAthletic#LondonMarathon #MarathonTraining #RunningCommunity #KittyScottClaus #DragRaceUK #AlzheimersResearchUK #MarathonTipsHosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronGuests: Kitty Scott-Claus & Bob DigglesEdited by: Rob Shaw Cameron@jackloxton1 @robshawcameron@kittyscottclausStage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFMProud - Heather Small ℗ 2022 Heather Small Music Productions LimitedThe London Marathon Theme (From The Trap) - New Zealand Symphony Orchestra & Ron Goodwin ℗ 2022 NaxosRunning Up That Hill (A Deal With God) [2018 Remaster] -Kate Bush ℗ 2018 Noble & Brite Ltd

This week, Rob takes to the mountains - not just for the skiing, but for something far less expected… the conversations.Broadcasting from Val Thorens, the highest ski resort in Europe, this episode explores the strange, fleeting intimacy of the ski lift - those suspended moments where you're placed beside someone with nowhere to go and nothing to do but talk.From chance encounters to surprisingly honest exchanges, Rob captures a series of conversations high above the snow - moments of humour, reflection, connection and the occasional curveball - all shaped by the unique rhythm of the lift. It's a reminder that sometimes the most meaningful parts of sport don't happen in the action, but in the pauses in between.As winter begins to give way to spring, Rob also looks ahead to a new sporting season back home - from marathon runners taking to the streets to the first sounds of cricket on village greens - and reflects on how sport, like the seasons, is always in motion.A love letter to altitude, stillness, and the unexpected conversations that happen when you're hanging in the air… waiting to come back down.Like, follow and subscribe! @StageDoorAthletic#RobShawCameron #JackLoxton #StageDoorAthletic #SportsPodcast #SportAndCulture #HumanConnection #TravelPodcast #OutdoorLife #StorytellingPodcast#SpringSport #FromTheMountains #SkiLiftStories #SkiLiftConversations #MountainMoments #SkiLife #AprèsSki #ValThorens #AlpsLife #ChairliftChats #LiftTalk Hosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronEdited by: Rob Shaw Cameron@jackloxton1 @robshawcameronStage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFMSki Lift (feat.

Jack and Rob are back in the Clubhouse, shooting the breeze once again.What begins as a casual catch-up quickly drifts - via the usual tangents - from Stoke-on-Trent to San Francisco, with a healthy dose of therapy and philosophy along the way as they chew over the ideas of fame and success in the acting world.From there the conversation takes a musical turn, with Rob insisting that Jack gives his very cheap guitar an outing and delivers a few twangs for the occasion.And of course, it wouldn't be an episode without some Curling chat. Rob's obsession reaches new heights as they dive into the announcement of a brand-new professional curling franchise The Rock League, set to hit the ice in Toronto very soon.Like, follow and subscribe! @StageDoorAthletic#RobShawCameron #JackLoxton #StageDoorAthletic #SportsPodcast #Curling #TheBeatles #Blackbird #StarTrek #Fame #Marvel #SanFrancisco #StokeOnTrent #RockLeague #NorthernUnitedHosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronEdited by: Rob Shaw Cameron@jackloxton1 @robshawcameronStage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFMSan Francisco - Stu Larsen ℗ 2014 Stu LarsenBlackbird - The Beatles ℗ 2009 Calderstone Productions Limited (a division of Universal Music Group)

That's it… the Winter Olympics are over — and what a spectacular, sleep-destroying sporting festival it's been.Rob reflects on the magic of Milano-Cortina 2026, the atmosphere, the drama, the memory making moments, and a genuinely historic Games for Team GB. From Matt Weston's golden brilliance on the skeleton track to more curling tension than is medically advisable, Britain's winter stars delivered in style.But watching from the sofa simply wasn't enough…In part two of Rob's Olympic diary, he heads to Cortina for a whirlwind immersion into the live Olympic experience - taking in curling at full volume, chatting with some London-based passionate Canadian sports fans, meeting Bruce Mouat's mum (yes, really), crossing paths with USA Curling Secretary Dick Dawson, and then witnessing Matt Weston's gold medal moment trackside.Because of course, this being the Olympics, things also got wonderfully weird. From penis injections, to curling disputes, broken medals, rogue animals, emotional interviews and gloriously surreal moments, Rob rounds up the strange, funny and unforgettable side of the Winter Games.Plus, a look ahead to the next Winter Olympics in the French Alps - a future edition already promising stunning venues, big ideas and a few intriguing twists.The Games may be over… but the stories most definitely are not, share your best Olympics moments, like, follow and subscribe! @StageDoorAthletic#RobShawCameron #StageDoorAthletic #StageDoorAthletic #SportsPodcast #OlympicPodcast #WinterOlympics #MilanoCortina2026 #TeamGB #BritishAthletes #WinterSport #Curling #OlympicCurling #CurlingFans #BruceMouat #SportsTravel #USACurlingHosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronEdited by: Rob Shaw Cameron@jackloxton1 @robshawcameron@thecourtofjames Stage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFMTurandot: Nessun Dorma - Andrea Bocelli, Coro de la Comunitat Valenciana, Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana & Zubin Mehta ℗ 2014 Decca Music Group LimitedNothing Is Impossible - Mariah Carey ℗ 2025 MARIAH under exclusive license to gamma.

Rob's flying solo this week and it's a full-tilt sporting diary as he throws himself headfirst into the glorious chaos of the Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina… from the comfort of his sofa (mostly).It all started pre-tournament for Britain's Curlers last Wednesday, before the week snowballs into opening ceremony splendour, men's and women's downhill drama, that terrifying Lindsey Vonn crash and the heart-in-mouth heli-ambulance evacuation, women's Big Air, Ice Dancing in the team event, and huge excitement as Jenn and Bruce battle their way into the semi-finals of the Mixed Doubles Curling.Somewhere along the way, things get a bit… real. The action ramps up, the FOMO kicks in, and Rob finds himself making a very impulsive, very last-minute decision that might just involve heading out to the mountains himself. He sets off tomorrow. Or does he?And because one sport-fuelled week apparently isn't enough, Rob also squeezes in Leeds United v Nottingham Forest, catches the start of the Super Bowl, and continues his budding love affair with the Broncos with a trip to the Challenge Cup clash against the Bradford Bulls.It's a rambling, joyful, slightly unhinged celebration of elite sport, emotional investment, and the dangerous idea that watching too much sport can lead to international travel.And don't go anywhere — this is just the warm-up.

This week in the Stage Door Athletic clubhouse, Rob is joined by his pal and award-winning movement director, choreographer and intimacy director, Ingrid Mackinnon — one of the most compelling creative forces working in British theatre today.Ingrid reflects on a journey that spans Canadian dance competitions, cruise ships, the West End, and some of the most talked-about productions on UK stages. As an intimacy director for the Jamie Lloyd Company, she's helped shape the physical storytelling of shows including Romeo & Juliet, Sunset Boulevard, Much Ado About Nothing and Evita — working closely with actors to create intimacy that is bold, repeatable, and rooted in trust.But this is also a conversation about sport, parenting, and identity. Ingrid talks candidly about becoming a football mum on the touchlines of South London, what her own childhood training in dance taught her about discipline and belonging, and what she hopes football gives her son beyond the scoreline. From Bromley FC to ballet studios, Alvin Ailey to All Dressed chips, this episode explores how movement, empathy and joy connect performance and sport.Along the way, Ingrid shares her philosophy of inclusive movement, low-ego leadership, and why kindness, clarity and collaboration are not “soft” skills — they're essential ones.A wide-ranging, funny and thoughtful conversation about bodies, boundaries, teamwork and what it means to move — on stage, on the pitch, and through life.Comment, like, follow and subscribe! @StageDoorAthletic#JackLoxton #RobShawCameron #StageDoorAthletic #Acting #Dance #IngridMackinnon #JamieLloydCompany #Scotland #FIFAWorldCup #Canada #England #WestEnd #BritishBlackTheatreAwards #Choreography #Artist #NYC #FameTheMusical #LionKing #SportsPodcast #TheatrePodcastHosts: Jack Loxton & Rob Shaw CameronProducer: James CourtEdited by: Rob Shaw CameronGuest: Ingrid Mackinnon@jackloxton1@robshawcameron@thecourtofjames @ingridmackinnonStage Door Athletic is a [NON]FICTION PEOPLE Podcast © [NON]FICTION PEOPLE LtdPRS Licence: LC-002182Visit our website for more information on this and other great podcasts.Published by RiversideFMFame - Irene Cara ℗ 2003 This compilation WaterTower Music as licensee for Turner Entertainment Co.God Bless the Child (Remastered) - Billie Holiday ℗ 2012 The Restoration Project
