Customer Reviews
Really great show
I really really really enjoy football weekly. It is a very good all around podcast about football and the ins and outs of the premiership and other lesser ships.
Its very funny, it delivers when it comes to banter and jokes and they also seem to know an awful lot about football stuff which is a plus.
P.s. But I have to warn you. They talk a lot about vasectomies. My guess is that is because their listener base is primarily middle age men that seem be at that stage in there life where they don’t want to have any more children (I am guessing here) or they don’t like to buy or wear condoms (maybe from the embarrassment of buying them). Anyway, I’ll let you be the judge of that. That is if you choose to listen to the show. Not that my opinion matters much or is very relevant - but I feel like I have listened to way too many times of them reading up letters from men saying goodbye to their fertility. I mean if that is the only thing you have going for you in life that is worth a mention in a podcast then quite frankly, your life might be tad boring.
I would suggest, if I may, that the show stops mentioning the subject all together. Not that I am in any way against vasectomies or a peoples’ freedom of choice.
I most humbly suggest that the football weekly podcast might consider newer subjects or different surgeries that their middle age listerners are going to get done on themselves as funny bits for the show.
Something on the fringe of cutting edge science. For example hair transplants or just something else, or even dare I say it nothing at al.
Vasectomies are no longer funny and it has become repetitive subject. Please move on or stop it all together and talk more about football please. Please, pretty please!
