Weekly highlight again

Back listening regularly and really enjoying the blend of rugby chat & analysis mixed with life chat (bbq/food/tv/golf/observations). A great listen on a break from work/avoiding the gym

Great Podcast

Love the show, bit of rugby chat, preceded by a discussion of the banalities of life which David and Tom make sound fun and funny. Some good TV discussion as well. Check out ‘Servant’ and ‘Severance’ on Apple TV, especially the latter chaps. Show feels unrehearsed and not too ‘lads, lads, lads’ which a lot of rugby shows fall into. Thanks for the good work.

Top show

Only here for the dry humour, gym and food chat ;-)
Keep up the good work guys, bloody good show
