The One with Nick Ransom
The sports journalist joins us for a top conversation in Neurodiversity Celebration Week!
You may well have seen Nick Ransom reporting on Sky, ITV, 91Èȱ¬ and plenty of other outlets – covering everything from the footballing stories of Afghan refugees to LGBTQ+ representation in the media.
He’s also worked as a producer, bringing together content for events like the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, Wimbledon, the Euros and more – basically, this is someone who lives and breathes sport.
It’s no real surprise that Nick ended up on telly – in fact, he basically spent his childhood banging out reports for anyone who would watch, honing the skills that would eventually take him into the industry.
And on a podcast that is all about representation, Nick is here not just to talk about being authentic as a member of the LGBTQ+ community – but also about his experiences as someone who is autistic, and who is passionate about spotlighting neurodivergent individuals on-screen as well.
So, loads to get into in this conversation with Nick – from his love of sport to his autistic experience to bringing all of his authentic self to the screen, to the stories he’s telling and championing as part of Neurodiversity Celebration Week across 91Èȱ¬ Sport!
