A Load of BS: The Behavioural Science Podcast with Daniel Ross
This week, we are joined by former England international cricketer Nick Compton. Nick is the grandson of the great Dennis, but a very fine 1st class cricketer in his own right playing for Middlesex, Somerset and 16 tests for England scoring 2 centuries in that time.Nick wrote his memoir 'Legacy' just last year and it is a moving, poignant, searingly honest, at times harrowing story of someone who was supremely talented at his craft, but for whom it became too all consuming and challenged Nick's mental health to the edge of his survival. Nick's psychological journey is the subject of this conversation.Show notes:Nick's journey of self-discoveryThe mental marathon of performanceThe realities of life as a professional athlete, beyond the glamour and accoladesThe legacy and weight of familyThe complexities of team dynamics and personal sacrificeHanging out with Virat Kohli's girlfriendA Load of BS EventsLiam and I are hosting our inaugural business of sport and entertainment event on June 17th early evening in London.We will be joined for discussion and drinks by Lord Ian Botham, Sir Andrew Strauss and Mo Bobat at the fabulous Patrick Mavros atelier on the Fulham Road.If you'd like to join us…We have a handful of seats available to podcast listeners.

The parents and former coach of Barnaby Webber pay tribute to him. We also hear from former Somerset player Nick Compton and celebrate the career of Anya Shrubsole who's announced her retirement.
“I only loved doing well. I never really allowed myself to enjoy it. Enjoyment came through performance and feeling like I contributed to the team. If I didn't perform well I felt a huge sense of emptiness. I felt insecure. I felt pretty damn fragile a lot of the time.” My guest this week is Nick Compton, former first class cricketer and England's opening batsman. Nick had an excellent first class cricket career, making 194 appearances and clocking up 12,168 runs. He represented England in 16 Test matches, scoring back to back centuries against New Zealand, and was part of the dynamic duo with Alistair Cook that famously beat India on their own patch for the first time in 28 years. The cricket and football fans among you will no doubt recognise his surname, the entire Compton family has huge sporting pedigree. His Grandfather Denis is sporting royalty, famously playing both cricket AND football for England and Arsenal, was one of the finest cricketers to ever walk the planet, and has a stand at Lord's named after him. Nick and I became mates at Durham University back in 2002 where we lived on the same corridor and despite not having been in touch for ages, I was delighted that he accepted my invitation to come on the podcast. He has had an exceptional career and been in the limelight for much of his life. More recently he has been spending more time behind the camera lens rather than in front of it, so I wanted to hear about his burgeoning professional photography career too and future plans. Nick and I talk about what it takes to reach the top of elite sport, we talk about peak performance, mindset and visualisation, we talk about growing up in the shadow of greatness. He also generously shares the difficulties that he's facing as he transitions out of sport, when his identity and self-worth have been so tightly wound around this one profession for so long. I'm very grateful to Nick for not holding back and rendering himself somewhat vulnerable by revealing the various challenges he's faced with his mental health over two decades. I know that he would have it no other way, but it always makes for a better episode when high-profile guests bring their authentic selves to the table. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

On Friday morning, Sam and Kane caught up with AFL executive GM of clubs and broadcasting Travis Auld, former England Test opener Nick Compton, and Australian marathon runner Sinead Diver.
The pressure on Sam as he plans to serve up his pizza at his family Christmas, and why the five day break is a footy myth before former England Test opener Nick Compton (39:23), a discussion around how to prevent AFL matches from overlapping and the best key forward duo in the competition (53:31), champion Australian marathon runner Sinead Diver (1:07:25), AFL executive GM of clubs and broadcasting Travis Auld (1:18:01), Questions Without Notice (1:30:38), and Gerard Whateley setting the scene for the third day of the first Ashes Test at the Gabba (1:37:50).
His confusion over the omission of James Anderson and Stuart Broad, why Joe Root's decision to bat made "no sense," how England's preparation for the Ashes concerned him, why Ben Stokes appeared so out-of-sorts on the second day, and more.

Nick Compton is a former English cricket opening batsman and first class player for Middlesex and Somerset. He was born in South Africa, the son of Richard Compton, himself a former professional cricketer, and the grandson of legendary England batsman and Arsenal footballer, Dennis Compton. Selected for England in 2012, he played 16 tests, including tours of India and New Zealand, where he scored his first test century. As he discusses in this conversation though, he was hugely disappointed to be dropped from the England team ahead of the 2013 Ashes series and left out of the Lions tour to South Africa in the winter of 2014. At both ends of the spectrum, Nick has done the deeper work of understanding how to inhabit high performance but has also suffered mentally from depression and anxiety. He talks openly about this journey in dealing with the regret of perhaps not realising his full potential, as well as the challenges of moving on from a career in elite sport. This transition has led him to his passion in photography, where he captures people, cultures and landscapes from across the globe. This is a brave and hugely enlightening conversation from someone who embodies personal awareness and humility.

Grandson of former Arsenal footballer and England cricket legend, Denis, Nick Compton has huge sporting pedigree and in many ways it was written in the stars that he would become a professional athlete. However, it wasn't just good genes that enabled Nick to reach the highest level - it was his unwavering focus and relentless dedication that allowed him to flourish on the international stage. In an honest reflection of his career, Nick admits that sometimes his intense focus and desire to succeed was unhealthy and contributed to feelings of anxiety and doubt. During the interview, Nick also gives a fascinating insight into the English dressing room at that time, when the side was one of the greatest in the world. A prolific opening batsman, Nick scored two centuries for England in his 16 Test matches, and impressed players, fans and media with his grit and resilience. Many in the game felt Nick deserved more than just 16 Test matches, and his record as one of Alistair Cook's most successful opening partners would corroborate that. While Nick reflects on his career with a slight disappointment that he didn't play more often, he can be proud of his performances when he was selected. Since retiring in 2016, Nick has found a new passion as a photographer. He's working hard to shine a light on communities that often don't receive the attention they should do.

Last year saw EMEA corporate sale and leaseback transactions hit a record high.

J'aime le World Cricket Show (moi non plus) On the pod this week, with Tony off stuffing his face with baguettes and croissants in Paris, Adam soldiers desperately on without him to deliver full analysis of the Headingley Test. Were England wrong not to enforce the follow-on? Or does the result vindicate the decision? And should most commentators therefore be ashamed of themselves? Plus, will Graeme Swann's form be giving the Aussies nightmares? And will Nick Compton cling on until Trent Bridge?

England ended up winning convincingly, but was the margin deceptive? What happened to New Zealand's batting? Is Stuart Broad back to his best? And has Joe Root hammered yet another nail into Nick Compton's coffin? In addition, there's analysis of the troubling news from India, where three IPL players have been arrested for spot fixing. What's the way forward now? And is the players the problem?

In addition, there's analysis of the startling developments in the Australian camp. Four players axed for not doing their homework - is this a ridiculous over-reaction? Or should we actually have some sympathy for the captain and coach? Also this week: Adam frolics in the snow while Tony has to work Nick Knight's got a new catchphrase Adam plagiarises yet...
