It's Thursday, the best day of the week... Word On The Street is back!
Welcome to episode 13, where we are talking all things curses and superstitions in sport.
Rachel is over Cork's loss (or so she says..) but she still hasn't shown her face in the office! She joins on Zoom to, alongside Susanna and Eve, take you through some of sport's wildest superstitions and curses. Eve also chats to sports psychologist, Dr. Kate Kirby, to see whether 'winner's curse' can actually affect performance and the danger of superstitious behaviour!
