When Covid struck and the country entered lockdown, Widdicombe and Beckett were stuck at home and the reality of parenting young children without the escape of work hit hard. They decided to start a podcast, Lockdown Parenting Hell, which meant they could go upstairs, leave the children for a while, and moan about the difficulties of being a dad, which over 2 million people a month started listening to! With the success of the podcast, Beckett and Widdicombe decided there was plenty they hadn’t covered that would make a great audiobook.

Winner of three World Championships, two Olympic gold medals and one Tour de France, Thomas has now published his new book, The Tour According to G. His book takes us on a personal ride through every stage of the race, and the querulous experience of life as a pro cyclist.
