The Catflap Chats Podcast

Welcome to the Catflap Chats podcast. My name is Mikey, but lots call me Catflap, Flap, or Flapper, and I'm fortunate enough to call some pretty interesting people my mates - Professional sports, Rugby, Boxing, MMA, Football, Actors, Singers, and Business, in Wales and beyond. I'm going to have a beer with a different mate each week, and delve in to their professional and personal lives. Expect some distinctly average chat, funny stories, and insights in behind the scenes. Basically, I am absolutely winging this! www.catflapchats.com Search 'Catflap Chats Podcast' on Instagram, Threads, TikTok and X, or catflapchats.com for our back catalogue, Merch etc

  1. Ep194 - Mike Friday - USA 7's Coach and general 7's legend

    APR 1

    Ep194 - Mike Friday - USA 7's Coach and general 7's legend

    Mike has probably forgotten more about 7s than I have ever known. Currently preparing for the Olympics 7's with the USA having been there for years, previously working with Kenya, England and enjoying a playing career in his own right. Good to chat about the state of the game, 7's in general, and how the game will grow in the USA. Top career, better bloke!

    Ep193 - Rocky Clark - England Rugby Legend

    What a whirlwind catch up with World Cup Winner, Rocky Clark. Great to chat about all manor of things Rugby, but also ADHD, working in the media, coaching, and life in general. She's been through her ups and downs, but continues to have a positive outlook and strive to be the best version of her self she can be. Being authentic is her super power for sure!

  3. Ep192 - Sexual assault & victims of a serial r*pist - Hannah Reid & Jennifer McCann

    MAR 18

    Ep192 - Sexual assault & victims of a serial r*pist - Hannah Reid & Jennifer McCann

    I sat down with 2 of 5 girls who found each other through being r*ped by the same man. They came together to put him behind bars, but the story is mental and horrific in equal measures. From the act's themselves, to dealing with the police, judicial system, and going public. I can't thank the girls enough for their bravery and willingness to chat around the subject. We must educate men, and young men, even better.

  4. Ep191 - Marc Pugh - 'The Foodie Footballer' & Ex Premier League Footballer

    MAR 4

    Ep191 - Marc Pugh - 'The Foodie Footballer' & Ex Premier League Footballer

    Great to catch up with Marc and chat all things health, fitness, and playing in the Premier League. He's making a name for himself on social as 'The Foodie Footballer', which he started whilst still playing professional football. Over 450 professional games, he's only one of a handful of players who have score in all of England's top 5 divisions!

  5. Ep190 - Lauren Price MBE - 'The Lucky One'; Professional Boxer with Olympic Gold and multiple World titles

    FEB 26

    Ep190 - Lauren Price MBE - 'The Lucky One'; Professional Boxer with Olympic Gold and multiple World titles

    What a story, and the best is yet to come. Kickboxing, Football, Boxing. Olympics Gold, World Titles and full senior caps. Despite a tough start to life, Lauren has gone on to be an unbelievable multi disciplined athlete. Currently 6 & 0 as a pro boxer after winning Gold at Tokyo2020, she has her sights set on the world belts this year. I loved this conversation, Lauren's attitude to life, and the fact she is so humble and down to earth despite being a killer in the ring!

  6. Ep189 - Becky Adlington OBE - Olympics Golds, Swimming, Social Media, Hate & Real Life

    FEB 19

    Ep189 - Becky Adlington OBE - Olympics Golds, Swimming, Social Media, Hate & Real Life

    This was an emotional rollercoaster. We spoke about everything, from growing up swimming, to winning Olympic Gold. Resilience in spades. From fitting in (or not) at school, to years of online hate and trolls due to her looks. Miscarriage and dealing with loss, to being the best version of herself she can be. What a great human being, who is continuing to inspire the next generation of swimmers and her own family 🙌🏽

    FEB 12

    Ep188 - Dave Attwood - Rugby, Aperol, and Philosophical Conversations

    Interesting fella is Dave! Philosophical in his outlook and speaks a lot of sense. Has thrown men about on the pitch for years, playing for Bristol, Gloucester, Bath, Toulon and England. A great career on it, genuine highs and lows both on and off the field, and carving a new direction off it with Farleigh Performance and Apero (Check that out theaperobar.com )

  8. Ep187 - Ben O'Keeffe - Rugby Union 6 Nations & Test Match Referee

    FEB 4

    Ep187 - Ben O'Keeffe - Rugby Union 6 Nations & Test Match Referee

    'The Referee's a....' really sound bloke! What a top guy. We sat down on the eve of the 6 Nations, 48 hours before he reffed Wales vs Scotland in Cardiff. I Could have chatted for hours. So open about the game from his pov, with real insights as to what referee's go through week to week. Immense highs and lows. Social Media abuse. Respect from the players and coaches, and a desire to be the best he can be. Great speaker, articulate with some good banter too. This is a must if you love Rugby
