@AcerUK_Official Been trying to to speak to someone at your Customer Service for 2 days. Keep getting hung up on and your chat bot is useless. Can you DM me please?

NEW POD ALERT: The Bianca Williams Edition 🤩 Nothing this season has brought us more pleasure saying Olympic 🥈@BiancaaWills 🎉 The sprint star joins us to chat about her ‘1st’ Olympics, her plans for the future & that pesky 100m PB buzzsprout.com/182677/episode…

A big thanks to @charliedobson99 for joining us for a chat. More interviews coming soon so make sure you subscribe on any platform so you don't miss out :) buzzsprout.com/182677/episode…

@IanTnf @charliedobson99 We might have led him astray to be fair 🍻

@BackstraightB @charliedobson99 I'm sure he had to twist your arms really hard. 😂

You haven't made it until you've been out on the lash with the @BackstraightB And we all get to feel old by them having to explain to @charliedobson99 what It's a Knockout was. Go listen to the interview. buzzsprout.com/182677/episode…

@James_Athletics Lols don't worry about what happens after 😆

@BackstraightB I have no idea what half the words in the second half of that page mean 😁 "Afterwards Leon Rees will be hosting a panel covering ‘The TL:DR of the Gen AI Loft’"

Would you like to attend a chat with @JohnsonThompson ? You can register here aws.amazon.com/startups/event… Amazon have a pop up AWS Gen AI loft in Shoreditch. As part of a month long series of events. They're holding Closing Party on Thursday & Kat will be speaking

@saprior I was just saying the same thing. Relay medals don't count !!

Why is Thomas on the list, but not Hodgkinson? Because of her relay medals, presumably? Hodgkinson was unbeaten over 800m, ran the 7th fastest all-time & won the OLY title. Thomas was twice beaten over 200m (incl a 6th place!), ran the 40th all-time & won the OLY title...

@TimHutchings1 U.S. Agencies Fund, and Fight With, Elon Musk. A Trump Presidency Could Give Him Power Over Them. nytimes.com/2024/10/20/us/… 🤷🏾‍♂️

Seriously? Who's going to limit the wonders that Musk is achieving? Why does he have to support Trump, who could ruin the western world with his idiocy, his lies, his racism, his total lack of genuine empathy with pretty much anything?

@chrissydarling Thanks babe 😘

@BackstraightB Great podcast! I was listening on my Sunday walk! 🦾 podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/bac…

@schnorb68 Jack you seem to be a genius because you've solved the problem. No idea what I've done but it worked 🎉🎉

@BackstraightB Hi fellow athletico here - if you’re on android, go to your phone’s settings, —> advanced features—> video call effects, and toggle off. Hopefully that will help

Does anyone know anything about @WhatsApp ?? There's no way of speaking to them. I can't make video calls and photos look like this 🤷🏾‍♂️ It's deffo a @WhatsApp problem, camera works with all other apps. I've uninstalled multiple times and even bought new phone but nothing helps 😡

@schnorb68 Thankyou. I followed that till the toggle off bit. What should I do ?

@IanTnf @prm_32 I’m actually the opposite. Don’t really drink at all these days but when I do barely have a hangover. Haven’t had one in ages which is why this was such a shock 🤢

@BackstraightB @prm_32 It's true though - you can still drink as much as ever, but the hangovers get so much worse!

They talk about the massive hangover but quietly slip in that they were back on the beers on the Saturday night ...

@prm_32 @IanTnf They were only little and we didn't finish them 😆👴🏾

@IanTnf @BackstraightB It was called a Beer meter

NEW POD ALERT: The We Blame Chase Jackson Edition. Fresh from gallivanting round Europe the gang are back with hangovers 2 prove it. The boys were reminded that their partying days are behind them in Brussels & certain Shot Put champion may be to blame 🤢 backstraightathletics.buzzsprout.com/182677/episode…

@saprior Well, that sounds like a lot of hard work 😫

@BackstraightB we demand an end-of-year review over two podcasts: 1st with your thoughts & highlights & 2nd with your event rankings. Top5 in each event will do, I doubt you could get through top 10 😄 I can't just have the TFN & AW view, I want YOUR view too
