Better Than Yesterday with Osher Günsberg
With every new day comes the opportunity to grow. Hosted by Osher Günsberg - a best-selling author, podcaster, TV host, husband, dad, stepdad, electric mobility enthusiast and part-time climate worrier. This podcast is here to help make today better than yesterday. Since 2013, the show has set out to improve life for you and the people you love. Sometimes it’s authentic conversations.

Listen to feel less alone, build better habits and discover some solution-based approaches for when life gets tricky.

First up - you may know I like to ride bikes. Bikes are freedom machines. Freedom from your physical location, freedom from a sedentary life and for me, freedom from unhelpful thinking - I love to ride because it gets me from place to place, clears my head and helps my body and mind work well while I’m at it. I am not a competitive cyclist. However right now the biggest competition in world cycling is happening every night on the telly - the Tour De France is upon us. And while every sport has d...

Along with two others, Damien was falsely convicted of the murder of three eight year old boys.
