If you're LGBTQ+ in sport, you've probably spoken with Jack.

 

Look, we know that sounds boastful - but honestly, it's true. 

Firstly on the BBC's ground-breaking LGBT Sport Podcast and now on The Jack Murley Sports Show, Jack has had in-depth, powerful conversations with some of the biggest LGBTQ+ names in sport about their journeys on the pitch, and their lives away from it. 

​

His back-catalogue of conversations include exclusives with Czech Republic international footballer Jakub Jankto, Olympic swimmer Daniel Jervis, Super League referee James Child, cricket-super fan (and national treasure) Stephen Fry, Olympic shot-putter Sophie McKinna, and more than three-hundred-and-fifty other top sporting names from across the world. 

​

Jack has become one of the world's 'go-to' voice on LGBTQ+ issues in sport, providing reports and analysis for BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio 5Live, Virgin Radio Pride, the BBC World Service, Match of the DaySportsday and Football Focus (where he lit up Wembley Stadium in Pride colours ahead of the 2023 FA Cup Final). His articles on topics including 'pink-washing' in sport and the controversial decision to host the 2022 Men's World Cup in Qatar regularly led the BBC Sport website, and he played a key role in setting the editorial direction of BBC Sport's content and features in both LGBT+ History Month and Pride Month.
