Alastair Campbell Part One: Why politics and sport are more similar than you think

  • Summary

  • Sam is joined this episode by one of the biggest names in British politics, Alastair Campbell. Alastair is the co-host of The Rest Is Politics podcast but is perhaps best known from his time as ex-Prime Minister Tony Blair’s spokesman, press secretary and director of communications & strategy when he was in power. In this episode, we examine the crossover between politics and sport. Alastair explains why his involvement on the British & Irish Lions Tour received mixed reviews from the players and talks about using the fear of failure – even when in a winning position - to drive you on.
