In this episode, we explore the emotional cost of elite athletic culture through the lens of Shane, Ilya and Scott.\nBuilding on last week’s episode, the conversation moves beyond performance and into identity, intimacy, and emotional survival. We question why physical closeness between male athletes encouraged, while emotional vulnerability feels almost impossible. We explore why can Shane and Ilya fight, joke, and touch each other with ease and yet struggle to actually say how they feel.\nDrawing on her experience coaching young male athletes, Lizzy breaks down how sport teaches men to process emotion through aggression, competition, and physicality, while often neglecting emotional awareness altogether. Together, we discuss everything from performance anxiety and coping strategies to toxic competitiveness, role models, therapy in sport, and the psychological differences between Shane’s controlled overthinking and Ilya’s instinct-driven intensity.\nThe next episode of the podcast will be published on Sunday 3rd May at 10am (GMT).\nJoin our Long Game Podcast Book Club on Fable to read along with us each week.: https://fable.co/club/long-game-pod-book-club-with-long-game-pod-349252537194?invite=fc285de0-86ea-45c4-ab3f-8dcc82b8cad8&referralID=4tVUzsxlCC\nFind us on instagram: longgame.heatedrivalry.podWrite to us: longgamepod2481@gmail.com\nFind Lizzy:The shelf aware podcastInstagram: @ shelfawarepodcast and @ lizzyb_reads\nFind Declan: Instagram: declan712Tiktok: declanmccallion1\nFind Silvan:Instagram: SilvatesTiktok: silvates1\nListen to Silvan’s ‘Silvates’ podcast here:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/silvates/id1531620495Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xMX59teVzpf6M86Cv7WG9?si=016f5477aed14697\nListen to the Podcast on:Apple podcast: \nSpotify podcast: \nAmazon podcast: \nWatch it on youtube:...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/DN_mX9ZAD_eslaN34U95xiE9Y3jVNruZvQrbm9QRIUo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lNzBj/MDc5MDA4MWVmMGFi/NGM0NzA2NTk5MzEz/ODVjYy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
