    We’ve got a very special episode this week, because we’re taking part in the Be Hope Podcast Takeover, and we’ll have Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales on the show later to talk about why it’s important to be hopeful and how listeners to our podcast can help to make the world a better place.

    We’ll also be talking about a boost for women’s sport, a champion cyclist’s last race and whether it’s time to stop giving out party bags.
