The One With Rowena Purdy

The LGBT Sport Podcast

Available for over a year

If you've been on social media today, you may have noticed a certain topic is trending. #ComeOutForTransEquality has been all over posts throughout the day - which makes the guest on this episode particularly appropriate. Rowena Purdy is a championship-winning rally driver who helped fly Vulcans in the RAF, and has been writing about motorsports for more than a quarter of a century. She also transitioned later in life and, now in her mid-70s, has got an awful lot to talk about - from developing a love of rallying in Kenya to travelling around the world, to how she decided when the time was right to transition. She's a great guest - and we really think you'll like her. HAVE AN IDEA FOR THE LGBT SPORT PODCAST FROM THE BBC? Email: jack.murley@bbc.co.uk Twitter: @jack_murley
