Disappointed but amused

Thanks lads you’ve cheered me right up this morning and that took some doing

Enjoyable but way too many adverts

Like this pod, especially the regular episodes and up to date topics. My only issue is the number of adverts. I listen to pods when I go running or cycling but iv had to drop this one as there are so many adverts it’s distracting rather than enjoyable. Definitely the pod with the most adverts and it’s one of the shortest too. Shame

Loved interview with Sid Lowe

Great background to Spanish team. Story about Nico and his brother was so heart warming. Really set up the drama of final. Always a great listen!
