    Wasnt it announced that day and he was just on the show that night? Think he gets on very well with both but is on regularly with OTB over the past year discussing other topics and fights

    I listened to the OTB show and it seemed like he was announcing(publicly) it on the show. Of course he would have told friends & family and maybe the SC's in advance.
    Still, I really like Andy, it would be hard not to.

    I wonder how they feel about Andy Lee announcing his retirement on OTB?

    He is a member of the team officially since December so I think that explains it.

    Anything with Ger Gilroy trying to show a sense of humour is cringeworthy

    Seems like I’m in the minority of one on that political pod! Funnily enough I’ve just ordered Peterson’s book so it’s left an impression on me at least.

    I was delighted that they had Andy Lee on. I was afraid that with him joining OTB it would have ruled him out. Haven't listed yet, but hopefully he can make occasional appearances in the future too...

    That Andy Lee show was great. The Jesus and Mary Chain sting had me welling up a bit.

    Does anyway know the song sampled in the 6 Nations intro talk jingle? (Not the French 'Le Kick' one).
    Cheers

    That Diego Torres podcast was a car crash. Awful stuff.

    Theme tune for "The Jinx" the absolute best "who done it" tv/documentary I've ever seen. If you haven't seen it, do!

    Just listened (or started to) listen to the Tuesday football podcast. Mother of god it's abysmal. Can't listen to it. Awful.

    Was that the Diego Torres one? Yeah it was fairly bad, it went on far too long as an interview.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Unsubbed for a month. Going to see if i miss it, and either resub or leave it.

    My podcast playlist is too long - im deleting half the episodes, so its a bit of a waste - want to see if i can get my fix from Totally Football, maybe give FW another shot, as well as a couple of other non-football pods i listen to.

    Will be keeping an eye here to see if anything memorable happens while im outta the loop!

    yeah I had to turn that off myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,866 ✭✭✭Raoul


    Was the Diego Torres podcast the worst podcast they have ever done?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 861 ✭✭✭tomwaits48


    In fairness, this workers World Cup pod has been a return to form.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,436 ✭✭✭Beersmith


    Also where was the Thursday pod?

    I really just cannot bear US Murph anymore, I find myself just getting angrier and angrier with each word he says. Seems like he prefaces every comment with a Trump comment or analogy or something which is really getting tired a this point

    Just skip him, lifes to short to get so annoyed over a contributer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,795 ✭✭✭dulux99


    I still enjoy US Murph. In general when he's on he's talking about a sport I don't follow (apart from the NFL) yet he always seems to do so in an entertaining fashion. Apart from the time they covered baseball. That was awful.

    I'd take him over lots of the football contributors any day. Some of those guys just sound so depressing all the time and are just so negative about all the aspects of football. Ken is even guilty of it at times in my opinion, always dwelling on the negatives, ie the non stop Neymar and Mourinho coverage

    Dead right. US Murph talks about sport as if he likes it. I don't know what the story is with so many contributors to so many podcasts just sneering their way through it. It's getting very tiresome.

    Ken's default mode is to sneer.
