Park yersel up, get a couple of drinks to hand and just sit back and enjoy this one, it's well worth the listen, even in our humble opinions. Our mum's think so too though so there is that....

We're joined by former Team GB basketball Olympian and all round good guy, Kieron Achara! We're glad this one was on zoom so we didn't have the problem of feeling like midgets in the presence of the former Team GB, Team Scotland and Dusquane (pronounced Doo-Kane) University hoops star! 

We really only scratched the surface of Kieron's story, his near accidental stumbling into basketball, what took him to American and around Europe making his basketball career. Some great stories as we hear of nights out with some of the NBAs greatest, how in Euro basketball circles paying of salaries was deemed an optional luxury and his unfortunate first hand experience of gun violence in America. 

We brought it in the Heroes & Zeros this week and a tight choices in both, is it possible there was someone worse than Jacob Rees-Mogg in the zeros? Listen and find out!
