Francis Bourgeois

By Tom Daley

When it comes to turning the thing you love into the thing you do, who better to speak about that than Francis Bourgeois aka the Trainspotting phenomenon!


Francis brings joy to millions of people across the world through his trainspotting exploits, via Tik Tok of course. He is pretty much responsible for making locomotives cool, but Francis wasn’t always so confident declaring his love of trains publicly, and in this episode he opens up to Tom about his path to acceptance and how his life has changed for the better since embracing his childhood passion for trains.


Fear not, you don’t need to know anything about trainspotting to enjoy this podcast, just listen to Francis describe the euphoria it brings him and you’ll know all you need to know! Francis also tells us about his future plans to combine trains and electronic music – and how the two things go hand in hand, for him! - how he deals with those who question his authenticity, and what it’s been like trainspotting with some of the most famous people on the planet.


Oh, and listen out for his impression of the train which sounds like Chewbacca!


All aboard, please mind the gap…
