They explained at the end that they could only get an interview with Alina Shaternkova later than they'd like to so Pod was late out.
Just listened to the latest Second Captains Saturday, Murph and Eoin giggling like teenage girls for the whole interview.
I wouldn't mind if maybe Fiona Shaw was cracking wise but she wasn't that witty.
Even when she was making serious points, the 2 lads kept misreading the conversation and would break into laughter.
That was a big drop in form after Mick Lynch last week.
Looks like Miguel is their main football correspondent these days. Seems to be on most weeks
This might seem petty but Ken's bit about Gerrard's comments on Buendia were out of context, Gérrard actually went onto praise Buendia after his initial comment about Bailey playing well as a sub
Unfortunately. All the money they're making you'd expect someone decent.
Having a podcast directly after a match is great. I hope its not a one off because of the live show.
It was very good, but I dont know how many matches a season would be worthy of it? This was a particularly big match given the start both clubs have had and was great to listen to it.
Great episode today.
Eoin's skills as a top notch host really shined.
I think I listened back to Ken's impersonation of Trump holding the Saudi glowing orb.... "whuuuagh" about 6 times now.
Whuuuaagh?!
It was done because the lads had a live show the next day and had nothing in the bag to do for the next day.
loved damien delaney's tactical analysis, it made a lot of sense. fully agree that the game's changed and 1 cog misfiring or not doing their bit affects everything
Damien Delaney is absolutely brilliant when he's allowed go in depth about tactics. Would rather listen to that than punditry by numbers all day.
Yeah, love the detail
Yeah, he was excellent. The whole orange metaphor bit was brilliant. I'm surprised he hasn't gone into coaching, he's analysis is, superb . He'd be excellent on Monday Night Football.
Very much enjoyed Ken's dramatic reading of Conte and Tuchel's statements.
I am a tiny bit surprised they haven't had US Murph on to talk about the College NFL game tomorrow, since every time he's over they mention Aer Lingus a million time and they're heavily involved in this.
Plus I know he's big on college football, and frankly I want to hear about it since I'm going and know f*ck all the teams involved.
Really? I don't think they'd have him on to preview what is essentially a novelty event.
Aer lingus would have to pay them or sort out flights for them to do that. I presume they get a deal with aer lingus for all the shout outs they do during those trips.
They be on the radio on Saturdays these days - personally I find the format and style getting a bit jaded. Little difference from week to week.
That Figo documentry Ken was talking about is excellent. Florentino Pérez wouldn't be out of place in Gomorrah/ is a serious operator.
Where can I watch it, EJ69?
Netflix I think
Netflix
As Ken said though, Paola Futre comes across as some character! Worth meeting for a couple of pints with him I'd say.
netflix
Lars is excellent. More Lars please.
Also, was Ken really fed up of Murph today? Murph was going on about something to Ken and Ken just let out a huge sigh and then continued talking
He interrupted him a few times with jokey comments and Eoin did at another stage, which actually slightly annoyed me, could see why Ken might have been a bit annoyed too
Fine Irish accent on that Norwegian lad.
Always enjoy Lars on the Guardian pod, is this his first time on Second Captains?
He was on one of the live shows recently. Really good. Hope they bring him back regularly
