Soccer A-Z
Tim Lovejoy and Helen Chamberlain were the original hosts of Soccer AM for over a decade. Alongside a hilarious team of sidekicks the pair heralded what many consider to be a golden era in sports broadcasting. The mix of comedy, pop culture and razor sharp football analysis was just what the fans wanted… and deserved. With Helen being a trailblazer for women in football broadcasting and Tim a national treasure second only to the Queen Mother*, their departure left a nation in mourning… until now! Helen and Tim have reunited and are bringing back the trademark chemistry, humour and footy chat their fans know and love for a fantastic, brand-new project. Arriving on 4th September 2024, Soccer A-Z is the news fans have been waiting for. Each week, Soccer A-Z will be led by nothing other than the alphabet, surprise! Each episode tackles a variety of football-related challenges and triumphs, as decided by the letter of the week. This is more than a podcast talking about the clubs, the players and the money – Soccer A-Z will have the fans in mind every step of the way. People travelling down memory lane are in for a treat too… there will be familiar faces aplenty to break down the latest happenings in the football world (Hi Sheephead! Hi Tubes! Hi Robbie!). Plus, if you fancy your chances against some of the greatest minds the world has ever seen, you’ll also love the weekly quiz... Whilst the weather will now be told fully clothed, there’s no saving chip and 2024 would not look too kindly at a Soccerette, Soccer A-Z promises to bring the cherished spirit back to life! Hear it through the fans' eyes. *stat not entirely accurate

Enjoyable pod
11 Nov
I enjoy the pod. It's got the right level of nostalgia and sports analysis to be very easy to listen to on a long drive. Starting to worry about Tubes if he might have a reoccurance of his heart attack with the amount he's been laughing at some of the more tragic moments of the show.
Laughing in the AM

Some podcasts just work. This one works a lot. So so funny. So so genuine. Not just nostalgic but lots of nostalgia. It’s not full of ads for other pods I couldn’t less about. I listen at night in bed and have had to stifle laughter at 2am a couple of times so I don’t wake the house up. This podcast is brilliantly good. They do use the word ‘legend’ a lot tho. Isn’t one supposed to be dead to be considered a legend?
The gang back together

This could so easily have been a lazy trip down memory lane, but the stories, the nostalgia and the iconic moments have all been brought to life through the old Soccer AM gang’s excellent chemistry and humour. The A-Z format and the Friday Questions & Quiz give the shows a strong formula to bounce around. I love it!
