Lewis Moody

Our very special guest on this week’s Podcast is Rugby Legend (and occasional Cricketer) Lewis Moody. On the pitch he captained England, represented the British and Irish Lions and won the World Cup, European Cups and many league titles. In 2025 he was diagnosed with MND and since then has worked tirelessly to raise awareness and vast amounts of money to try and combat the disease. In a wonderful, wide ranging interview we cover everything from his ‘cricketing credentials’ - pretending to be Jonty Rhodes, bowling fast beamers at batters heads and being a proper Tailender - to living with MND, dealing with adversity and the power of ’the human spirit’. Plus guitar lessons from Jonny Wilkinson, why he wanted to write his latest book and some amazing advice for parents of kids who play sport.
