Think of the phrase male ally as a verb rather than a noun. How can you help drive gender equality in sport? Game On charts the unstoppable rise of women's sport, with many trailblazing, game-changing women leading the charge, but ultimately having men onside will be essential if true equality in sport is ever to be achieved.This week's audio chapter of the book ‘Game On' explores the topic of male allies, celebrating the men that are already on board and providing practical guidance for those that want to do more. Along with the high profile male allies like Andy Murray, David Coulthard, Ugo Monye and Justine Rose, I also applaud those doing so much in running sports organisations, investing in sponsorship and generating more media coverage.Find out more about The Game Changers podcast here.Hosted by Sue AnstissProduced by Sam Walker, What Goes On MediaA Fearless Women production

Points are awarded for informed comment, wit and passion, but taken away for nonsense and answers lacking in conviction. In the final round, the top two points scorers go head-to-head in 'Defend the Indefensible' where they must both defend a statement however ludicrous or distasteful for twenty seconds. There can only be one winner! Get the podcast from BBC Sounds

England hooker Jamie George joins Chris Jones, Ugo Monye and Natasha Hunt live from the stadium in Perth after England lose 30-28 to 14 man Australia in the First Test of their summer tour. They discuss where it went wrong for Eddie Jones' side who should've seen it home after Darcy Swain was sent off in the first half for a headbutt in Australia's first win over England since knocking the co-hosts out of the 2015 World Cup.

We got beautifully weird! This was a joy of the alternative kind. Craig is an Irish television presenter and producer, most recently associated with BT Sports rugby coverage.We discussed and displayed sexy cats, getting sack-tapped by Ugo Monye and bollicking Maradona out of it while playing soccer with him and Gordon Ramsey in packed Old Trafford.This will adequately ease your boredom if you like surreal ear-goodness.To support the show and access todays video and a rake more Patreon exclusive content why not follow this link: https://www.patreon.com/tomomahonybuckshot

Chris Jones, Sara Orchard and Ugo Monye assemble at Kingsholm Stadium to review England versus Wales. They look back on what proved to be a special occasion in the history of the Women's Six Nations with a record crowd showing their appreciation for women's rugby, and debate what some of the other nations can do now to bolster their female sides. They discuss the key components of England's ten try triumph, and where Wales went wrong despite a strong start. Sara and Ugo also put their selector hats on with the Rugby World Cup just around the corner, and England Forwards Coach, Louis Deacon, even makes a surprise appearance on the pod!

Ugo Monye is former Harlequins, England and British & Irish Lions rugby player, who's now more familiar to us as a sports broadcaster, podcaster and TV presenter.   He's a captain on BBC's Question of Sport and also took part in last year's Strictly Come Dancing.   When not talking about rugby on TV shows and podcasts, Ugo is Chair of the RFU's Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Group and recently became a Trustee of the Women's Sport Trust charity.   A passionate male ally for women's sport, Ugo confronts whether women's rugby is truly professional right now, why more investment is needed for quality media coverage and how much more top male players can do to publicly support their female colleagues.   A huge thank you to our partners, Sport England who are kindly supporting the next three series of The Game Changers podcast through the National Lottery.
