<description>&lt;p&gt;In episode 23 Cameron and James invite Aussie megastar &lt;a href="http://adamhills.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Adam Hills&lt;/a&gt; to take a seat with them. There is very little that Adam hasn’t done in his life like meeting the Royal Family, representing Australia at the rugby league World Cup, hosting TV shows like &lt;a href="https://iview.abc.net.au/show/spicks-and-specks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Spicks and Specks&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-last-leg" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;The Last Leg &lt;/a&gt;, performing at &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCBOo-45IEU" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;international stand up comedy festivals&lt;/a&gt;, and receiving awards out his wahzoo. While we like to dream that we match up to these achievements, we know just how lucky we are that Adam made time in his busy schedule to talking to us.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Having recently finished the 2021 &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Physical_Disability_Rugby_League_World_Cup" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Physical Disability Rugby League World Cup&lt;/a&gt; we felt it was very important to talk to Adam about Physical Disability Rugby League and his involvement. His insight to the sport, it’s governance and the importance of its growth in the future. It quickly became very obvious that the &lt;a href="https://www.rabbitohs.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;South Sydney&lt;/a&gt; fan holds Australia and his bunnies close to his heart with his passion bleeding through in his playing performance at the recent World Cup.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;We were lucky enough to learn more about his television program The Last Leg. Starting back in 2012 they were continued after the Paralympics with weekly episodes talking about disabilities, news, and sports. He was even nice enough to provided us with the secret ingredients that made them so successful.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;We finish the episode with our hard cards and general conversation that left us in stitches and gasping for air.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;We loved every second of this episode and we are certain that you will love it equally as much.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Keep up to date with the take a seat project by following us on our &lt;a href="https://linktr.ee/TheTakeASeatProject" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;socials&lt;/a&gt; and download our episodes every fortnight.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;This podcast episode is proudly sponsored by &lt;a href="https://suncoastspinners.com.au/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Suncoast Spinners&lt;/a&gt; a Wheelchair based sporting club.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'&gt; Hosted on Acast.

<description>&lt;p&gt;In episode 22 Cameron and James invite Anne Usher formally Dickins to take a seat with them. Prior to her impairment Anne was an avid cyclist which all ended one day when she bent over to put on her shoe. After suffering from the medical emergency of cauda equina syndrome, Anne was left with limitations in her lower limbs. These impairments resulted in Anne struggling with her passion of cycling. This did not deter her away from the sport as she turned her focus to being team GBs physiotherapist at the London 2012 olympic games. At these games she had a chance meeting with the GB Paracanoeing coach who encouraged her to try a new sport. Fast forward 4 years to Rio where Anne was successful in winning the Gold medal in the KL3 Paracanoeing and becoming Great Britain's 100th Medal of the games.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since winning her Gold Medal Anne has become a Public and motivational speaker as well as a member of the superhero tri series. This amazing Concept established by fellow Paralympian Sophia Warner has changed many lives in the United Kingdom. During the Episode Anne explains how these events have built a community which now thrives in success.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;This podcast is proudly sponsored by&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://suncoastspinners.com.au/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;Suncoast Spinners&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;a Wheelchair based sporting club.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Join the take a seat project via our website&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.thetakeaseatproject.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;www.thetakeaseatproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and socials where you can download this podcast every fortnight.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'&gt; Hosted on Acast.
