Hi guys!

As an England rugby fan in the land where everyone plays football and doesn’t understand rugby (America), and my husband is an unfortunate Irish fan, your podcast has saved me!! Your banter is spot on, along with your prediction- let’s go England! Can’t wait to listen to your pod, post victory over the all blacks. Keep it up fellas!

A constant in the storm of King Eddie's maelstrom

Very engaging pod from (usually) two dedicated England rugby fans who have maintained the steadfast belief, through thick and thin, that England will win the 2019 RWC. Hopefully, they are right.

Their belief in England's ability has, at times, seemed illusory. Particularly while King Eddie engaged in curious selections and the Occam's Razor approach suggested King Eddie to be a deep state mole sent to wreck our youger players' confidence. But on the eve of the competition, the faith shown by Andy and Dan currently seems far from misplaced.

The pod itself offers a different proposition from the rest of the rugby pod sphere and is well worth a listen. Thank you gents for the dedication and the engaging chat.

All that’s missing is the pub

As an American I’m so happy to have live games from the premiership and now the 6 nations on NBC. But i miss the chance to talk to knowledgeable fans about what we can now watch. With this podcast i can get much of the same feeling. Like being down the pub with two great Rugby mates.
Thanks guys.
