Thought I'd update the OP with links and stuff for anyone who stumbles across this.

The former Off the Ball hosts have partnered with The Irish Times to do a series of weekly podcasts. They go online each Tuesday and cover a variety of sports, with a number of contributors including Sid Lowe, Richie Sadlier, Gerry Thornley and Shane Horgan.

They can be found:
On The Irish Times' site: http://www.irishtimes.com/sport/second-captains
On Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/secondcaptains-it-com
On iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/ie/podcast/second-captains-irish-times/id647893016?mt=2

Or if you prefer not to use iTunes for your podcasts, use this link in whatever app you use (Thanks to youcancallmeal): http://feeds.feedburner.com/secondcaptainsitcom

And here are their Twitter and Facebook accounts.

Cheers,
wnolan1992

He obviously does. The lads could/would be putting out more relevant content if they didn't have him farting out his 'whimsy' every day to beef up their offering. They used to do 2 shows on a Monday and a Thursday for instance. Now it's one, with DOD thrown in. Not much use for people who don't like him.

More content does not mean more quality. Try tuning into OTB AM any morning around 8am and listen to them try and fill time.

Isn't that what's known as a normal morning on OTB AM?

I can't remember him being on SC for German football coverage in a long time. They've covered it a bit during the lockdown and he hasn't been a contributor.

February 6th seems to be his last appearance. Never a super regular contributor in fairness.

SC would be the same and were when they were on the air for 15 hours a week.

OTB AM is not within an asses roar of OTB when the lads were on every evening. There's no comparison.

If it’s anything like my local Spar that means it’s probably €4 in a proper shop.

The girl on the checkout couldn't believe it either when she scanned it.
She called over her supervisor to double check.

Pretty sure these used to cost £3 back in the day - cant say I ever had the financial confidence to buy one..

Live in the uk now and a vienetta is £1 in asda. Like free money that!! (Based on last fridays podcast the germans must be paying for it!!)

the absolute state of this.

literally getting world class content for free and still moaning about it :rolleyes:

Ken's interview with Mathew Klein recently was also genuinely brilliant. Bit of a polymath is young Ken.

Good stuff.

Hi, lads *wave*

Brian Kerr was brilliant yesterday, wouldn't have cared if they didn't even mention the book, vaguely knew his father was into boxing, was great to get a bit of context, his enthusiastic reading of passages from the book was nearly worth this months fee alone.

al87987

Yeah, you gotta love Brian Kerr. His passion and enthusiasm always shine through, he's a great listen.

Shame how it all went with the FAI for him, think he could have been a great Ireland manager.

First time they've had a guest on that you could get a sense of the book they were talking about.

Compare that to the Shane Hogan interview.

The interview with Victoria Arien was incredible. Unbelievable what she went through

[Deleted User]

Who is she? When it got to the weekend I skipped a few, and seen Michael Chieka in a description.

She's a paralympic gold medallist. She spent years living with locked in syndrome.

How she didn't go crazy was amazing. Her attitude and positivity was pretty incredible.

I'll be bitterly disappointed if we never get a showdown between Ken and Lance Armstrong at some point.

Weird that it is deferred, thought it was meant for April. Why would COVID-19 be any reason to defer a pre recorded podcast.
