0:00.0	Hello, Jen here to tell you about this week's episode of The Sunday Chops. And before I do that,
0:20.0	I wish you a very merry Christmas on behalf of myself. And indeed, the rest of the
0:25.2	standard issue team, we hope you had a lovely day. It's Boxing Day if you're listening to this
0:29.3	on Sunday. A day historically linked to sports and, you know, the big match, the big Boxing Day
0:36.1	match, which you might go to, if you're not being held hostage by a global pandemic and a complete
0:42.2	absence of public transport. Anyway, as I've alluded to there, it's been a funny audio, hasn't it?

1:52.6	I'm looking at both of them and they've got their Zoom bookcases absolutely on point. They're
1:57.6	both left London. They're having the whale of their lives on their Zoom call business. Absolutely
2:05.2	loving it. So guys, we are here to talk about the last year in women's sport. And Carrie,
2:12.0	I'll start with you on this, I think. Just in general, how do you think things have been
2:17.7	going in women's sport over the last year? Because it's been a tricky time, obviously. We've come
