talkSPORT

In 2024, talkSPORT broadcast full coverage of the Olympic Games in a first for UK commercial radio. We were central to the planning and delivery of everything that was broadcast from the day the deal was announced through to the Closing Ceremony. We identified and worked with the on air talent to deliver outstanding coverage for the world’s biggest sports radio station!

For more than a decade, Michael has been the station’s correspondent on all things Olympics and Paralympics popping up at any time of the day and night, reporting on the latest saga involving the International Olympic Committee or revealing the latest GB success. At Paris 2024, Michael worked across 12 different sports commentating on athletics, tennis, triathlon, diving and the iconic Opening Ceremony overlooking the Eiffel Tower.

John is a regular contributor to the award-winning Jim White & Simon Jordan show! In Paris, he covered 15 different sports and was the commentator for both Team GB’s first and last medal. This included sport-climbing, weightlifting, cycling and gymnastics amongst many others.

We also cover the British Athletics Championships, Diamond League, World Snooker Championships, the London Marathon, Great North Run and Tour De France.
