Your Spurs x culture podcast, with Ash, Billie T, Charlie, Rosa and Tom. HG is committed to covering the Tottenham Hotspur men's and women's teams, and tapping into the Spurs fan experience. We're talking the grief and glory of being fully COYS: cult heroes; iconic shirts; comically miserable away days; everything from Amsterdam to Zagreg. The team are also dedicated to bringing you music, TV, film, books and art recommendations we know you’ll love. Plus guests! We have very special guests from the Spurs and culture crossover universes. Eventually, these guests will include Adele. It is our ultimate goal here, after all.

“Euphoria”
I don’t know if you heard, but Spurs Women are going to the FA CUP FINAL!!!! Lauren and Rosa take a long, joyous look back at that historic Sunday in Tottenham as our magnificent women came back from conceding an early goal to beat Leicester City 2-1 at extra time. We discuss the vibes, the lineup, the subs, the tactics, the fitness and anything else we can think of, and still have time for a quick shoutout to the only men that matter (nope, not those clowns).

“Challengers”
A very special, overly-excitable, slightly nauseous FA CUP SEMI-FINAL PREVIEW POD! Rosa and Lauren are joined by HG cousin Caroline as they look back at the journey (inc. penalty shootout heroics and Peak Ros) and forward to our historic game against Leicester City that could take us that final step closer to glory. But whatever happens, it’s been magical. Come on you Spurs!

In My Place
Another day, another inexplicably inconsistent first half performance followed by a barnstorming - ish - second half fightback from our lilywhites. We ponder the complexities of our performance against Forest, revisit past tragedy/comedy away at Newcastle, and dish out our latest culture picks.

“Punch Drunk Love”
Another late win, this time against the elite warriors of Luton Town. We discuss Bissouma’s fall and Brennan’s rise, wonder what to do with Kulu, marvel at our magnificent captain, and beg Tottenham to play more than 15 minutes of amazing football per game — especially with West Ham coming up. Pop quizzes, culture, apologies to parents and first time outings at the stadium for HG offspring: it’s all here.

“Eternals”
Ash, Billie, Rosa and Sam come together to mostly ignore the actual football (bar a shoutout to GB’s heroics as Wales captain) to bring you the Hometown Glory Mount Rushmore Draft. Find out who the gang picked as their Modern Classic, Childhood Sweetheart, Certified Legend, and Wildcard. Plus! Does it matter if Spurs Women are only allowed to score in the second minute of games now? We wrap it all up with a Luton quiz starring the Ginger Pele himself, Gary Doherty, even more Dune chat, a mini Mexico travelogue, and the latest COYS celebrities.

“The Work of Angels”
Welcome to Statement Win Sunday. The men took their revenge on Aston Villa by producing officially their most complete Angeball performance yet, and the women made history by finally scoring a goal against Manchester City…and then beating them on penalties to make it to the semi finals of the FA Cup for the first time EVER. A truly blessed day. All that, plus a Fulham quiz and the final word on the Oscars.

Customer Reviews
The best Spurs podcast
Easily the best Spurs podcast out there. A great mix of regulars who have real chemistry together, and one of the few Spurs podcasts that takes the women’s game as seriously as the men’s.
Gaza
Some of the hosts want to do the right thing and support a ceasefire in Gaza. Others don’t. Israel is an apartheid state, its government is committing war crimes, crimes against humanity, and is projecting genocidal intent. Disappointing that a podcast that forefronts social issues when discussing football can fail to address or acknowledge the current situation, even though players and match-going supporters are making their feelings clear by bringing this crisis into the realm of our club.
A quick review of the hosts Twitter feeds will illustrate the racist double standards at play here.
A shame, as they are otherwise likeable and engaging.
I appeal to the consciences of those involved ; please publicly comment support a ceasefire, there can be no humane reason not to.
Probably the best Spurs podcast in the world.
What a great podcast. Entertaining show, good spurs analysis and I love the culture bit at the end. Some great recommendations. Keep it up!
