Season Two continues with Commonwealth 100 metres champion Akani Simbine, and the reigning Diamond League Shot Put champion Maggie Ewen.
Who doesn't like strawberries? What happens in the call room before a 100 metres race? Will having the Worlds on home soil convince Americans to watch Track and Field? What's it like to finish fourth?
We're also discussing body image and why athletes don't have to look a certain way to do a particular event. Plus, why the Commonwealth Games needs to come to Africa.
