The song they use as the background to the Cantona audiobed popped up in my Spotify Discover Weekly this week. Matt Berry - Take My Hand, pretty obscure track I would have thought...

They've got a spotify playlist, i shazamd that song a few years ago. Its the same Matt Berry thats in the Mighty Boosh, The IT Crowd and loads of other stuff. Quality song but the album isn't great.

It’s the opening tune to Toast of London. For my money the best comedy the UK has produced over the past few years.

I went to the Queens of the Stone Age gig last night. When they played 'My God Is The Sun', my brain was expecting to hear "Well you can laugh. How was the World Cup?"

I listen to this podcast far too much!

I too was at the same gig and I get a constant surprise whenever I listen to the song in full, because I'm so used to hearing only the intro.

Whoever does the music has absolutely brilliant taste, and what sealed the deal was when they did the Irish victory over New Zealand in the rugby clip and had The Brian Jonestown Massacre as the song.

Don't know if this has been posted before, but the music choices are 10/10.

That'd be Mark Horgan...

Only catching up with Fridays show now, enjoyed the more niche topics, I liked Niamh Fahey's pragmatic response to when Ken was pushing her about how the women's football team is treated by the FAI, her brother killing Murph with kindness before a match was pretty funny.

Running Balance

The interview about the mucross boxer was very good - typical of the niche stuff that they exel at

The podcasts today were terrible .

Thinking now that the international soccer team is effectively dead until 2019 that the podcasts will become alot less interesting. Covering the big is where the lads (Ken in particular) really seem to find their groove.

Just seemed like they had nothing to talk about and were filibustering

Cienciano

I just listened to the football show, I thought it was good.

Thought the football show was good. The interview about where Everton have gone wrong was interesting and so was Kens winger/striker chat.

Didn't bother with the other one - too much rugby chat for me, will listen to the GAA parts later.

I agree. As an Everton fan, I really enjoyed the conversation with Simon Hughes who is always interesting.

I also enjoyed Hickie and Horgan on the rugby, they are two of the better pundits.

I always look forward to the pods that dont have have any mention of sport in the title. Usually a good anecdote in there somewhere.

It was a Monday pod. Never going to get their best content in the free pods.

Cienciano

Murph getting sick of watching GAA was funny too. But I did skip most of the non football.

BTW, if anyone is interested in UFC, last weeks 30 for 30 The Birth of UFC is worth a listen.

Hi I just signed up to the world service this week and going through the massive list of episodes I haven't seen a single podcast of Ken and politics . Is that feature gone or a separate feed?

Been awhile since he did one alright but there should be 5/6 there id say

October 20th was last one - was about Catalan independence... They mentioned that there might be another one this week I think...

Glad I wasn't the only one. I did an intro in my head :cool:

I enjoyed the golf coverage today. I must say I got a chuckle out of Ken saying Tiger Woods is the Ronaldinho of golf...maybe he was on the wind up but he really isn't very up to scratch on many sports outside of football!

Pete Moss

So, Alan Pardew sounds like a right b*stard to have dinner with!

That said, I'll justify eating everything over the Christmas period by saying "I'm havin' tha'" in Pard's cockney accent.

Only caught up with last thursdays show yesterday - klopp stuff was very interesting and kens chat about heading the ball the wrong way had me in tears 😂. I like murph but it was more relaxing without his interruption.

Dots1982

The hype about Tiger’s return was fairly over cooked. Yer man saying the world stands and watches whenever Tiger flex’s or motions uncomfortably on a golf course...ah jaysis now..

lawred2

Actual burst out laughing on the train at Ken doing the Suarez translation

Say Your Number

The mention of Andre Villas-Boas reminded me of Ken's quote way back when he was Chelsea manager "Andre Villas-Boas is fluent in seven languages, including bullsh1t"

Loafing Oaf

Loved the Gianni Infantino fake laugh.:D

Ol' Donie

US Murph in studio.

Fantastic.
