    Episode 2: "Line-Outs and Lamingtons", feat. the Exeter Chiefs Love & Laughter with LittlePod  Host(s): Janet Sawyer  Guests: Liv McGoverne & Lucy Nye, Exeter Chiefs Women’s Rugy Team Episode description:  Boots off, kettle on: Janet is joined on the sofa by Lucy Nye and Liv McGoverne from Exeter Chiefs Women. Lucy is Exeter born and bred, a scrum-half who swaps her boots for an RAF uniform as a Flight Lieutenant, while Liv came all the way from Christchurch, New Zealand, to pull on a Chiefs shirt and keep the scoreboard ticking with her boot. Over a plate of lamingtons, they chat about life inside a professional women's squad, what it takes to juggle elite sport with everything else, how LittlePod ended up with its name on the kit, and why a Devon vanilla brand and a Devon rugby club make a rather lovely team. It's warm, it's silly, and there's a fair bit of coconut on the carpet by the end.
