• Ep 3315: Lions Win Series But Search For Soul, Lightning Illuminates, Woakes Heroics In Vain - 04/08/25

  The Lions return triumphant from the 2025 tour of Australia with a 2-1 series victory... but was that the bare minimum? Shane Horgan and Gareth Rhys Owen of the BBC's Scrum V are on the show this Bank Holiday Monday to review why the Lions ran out of steam on Saturday's third test. We discuss whether Andy Farrell returns to Ireland with his reputation enhanced, which Irish players have grown or wilted during this tour, and how good or bad this Australian team really are. We also discuss how to spend a 30-minute storm delay, and the insane final moments of the fifth day of the fifth test between England and India which included some heroics from Woakes and an incredibly tight finish.

• Ep 3310: Tibia Schmibia, Queen Boudica, Thank You Mr Marinakis

  England have won their second consecutive Euros, a Lionesses XI built out of different types of rocks and hard places ultimately proving too tough for Spain to break down.Today we learn about the lighter side of Sarina Wiegman, look at what England's win signifies in these exciting days for the meaning of Englishness, and reflect on the overall impact of Euro 2025. We also discuss the knock-on effects of Luis Diaz' transfer to Bayern, and whether top clubs' increasing fixation on 22 year olds is creating market opportunities for old foxes like David Moyes to exploit.

• Ep 3309: Kerry Destroy Donegal, Clutch Cliffords, Fulsome Praise, Eoin Hulks Up - 28/07/25

  The 2025 All-Ireland senior football championship is finished and Kerry are worthy champions, again. Two of the great GAA pundits, Paul Flynn and Oisin McConville, are in studio to discuss this magnificent season of gaelic football 2.0. How did Kerry defuse the Donegal zonal defence? Where did they find their energy after losing to Meath 8 weeks ago? Is David Clifford even human? We also examine Jim McGuinness’ performance and whether he was out-coached yesterday, and we look ahead to a bright future for the sport.And of course just because Eoin was off on Friday doesn’t mean he missed his chance to pay his respects to Hulk Hogan. The balance is redressed in emphatic style today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
