Olympics Chat with Graham Bell & Emily Sarsfield (Bonus Episode #21)

This episode was recorded in September 2021 at the 'Ski Launch' event in London. Iain hosted this special panel with Olympians Graham Bell and Emily Sarsfield.

Please note that the sound quality on this broadcast is not ideal. This is not typical of The Ski Podcast (have a listen to our other 100+ episodes), but having played a clip in Episode 80, listeners asked to hear more - hence this special episode.
