CROpod: The Other Rangers Podcast

The Canuck is home but now David is away. This is how the CROpod works, folks. But as we gear up for our 11th anniversary, Shane and Todd are here to discuss their recent ventures out in society. Plus, Todd ingratiates himself into Italian ultra culture; stop with this Ryan Kent stuff; don't spring for the really expensive UV lights for your next party; and more! CROscarf AVAILABLE NOW! ⁠⁠⁠⁠ Y...

David and Todd are both away so Shane has pulled in his DAMN Questions counterpart Danny for this week's big CROpod. A lot more football than you're used to, as Big Phil's first month at Rangers comes to a close; Scottish football continues to eat itself; Chris Sutton does what he does; and we look at the accounts so Shane and Todd don't have to when the Canadian returns on Wednesd...

The football is good and Big Phil's Rangers are rolling. Plus, the rest of Scottish football is having any number of meltdowns. And yet, the people in charge at Ibrox still lack any sort of accountability, and the time to fix that is running out. Shane and Danny are back to run down that and more in a new episode of Don't Ask Me No Questions. CROscarf AVAILABLE NOW! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Yes, we have a fa...

(Shane has been struck with man flu, so the planned Wednesday programming will have to wait until after we take on Sparta Prague. But here's some classic CROpod from Sept. 2022 to fill some time.) American sports teams love to move house—they always have, and it's something almost wholly unique to the country's sports leagues. Colin wants to know why, and Shane is here to once again hu...

The Canuck is still on his Roman Holiday and David has done his back again leaving Shane to carry the load for another CROpod. Thankfully, he's neither injured nor hungover. The "fan" in "fan media"; a rip-roaring affair in London; managers being rewarded for lacking the common sense god gave them; loads of your questions; and more! ⁠ CROscarf AVAILABLE NOW! ⁠⁠⁠ Yes, we hav...

The football continues to be fun and Shane and Danny aren't quite sure how to handle it. Recapping the 3-1 win over Hearts; Korea invades Govan; Tavernier is the real Tav again; plus, 15 minutes of chat about our FM saves. All that and more in this edition of Don't Ask Me No Questions. CROscarf AVAILABLE NOW! ⁠⁠⁠⁠ Yes, we have a fantastic new scarf from our friends at The Famous available...

Football can be fun! Who knew?! Certainly not Shane and Danny, who are back in their respective seats for another episode of Don't Ask Me No Questions. Rangers run rampant with an unlikely 12th man on the park; Big Phil can't quite believe how un-fit this squad is; Barry Ferguson can't shut up to save himself; and our campaign to bring Alfredo Morelos home continues. ⁠ CROscarf AVAILAB...

Rangers escaped Prague with a point Thursday but Philippe Clement was unable to escape Friday's presser without some questions about how he got the job. Souness speaks (for some reason); Roofe is not reappearing anytime soon; the SNP does SNP stuff; and some sports trivia to win a pint off your friends, all in today's Second Hand News. ⁠ CROscarf AVAILABLE NOW! ⁠⁠⁠ Yes, we have a fantastic...

The manager's first week in charge has presented some unique challenges, and Shane welcomes Danny to discuss Philippe Clement's responses on an all-new Don't Ask Me No Questions. Rangers will cope without a left back; the positives we can take away from Hibs at Ibrox; managing expectations before the transfer window opens; and prepping for what will surely end up a racist reception in...

Apparently, we have to clarify details of what happened when Glen Kamara was racially abused at work more than two years ago all over again this week. So instead of cutting something completely new, here's some CROpod Revisited content from Shane's lengthy sitdown with journalist Gordon Watson from March 2021. The pair talked through the Glen Kamara incident; the Slavia response; the media...

Rangers won and so the panel is in a good mood for a brand new CROpod! Shane, David and Todd aren't the ones struggling for fitness as they again go deep into extra-time for the second week in a row. Remembering dictators at the sport; stop trying to do things in deserts; Scotland isn't the only place with bent referees; and more! CROscarf AVAILABLE NOW! ⁠ Yes, we have a fantastic new scar...

Philippe Clement's Rangers career begins with a bang as Rangers rolled out 4-nil winners over Don Robertson and Hibs at Ibrox. Shane's back with a new Second Hand News taking a look at some of the points of emphasis from the new boss. Plus, our former manager is having a hard time moving on; and Rangers prep their players for a return to Prague. Listen to more CROpod The Glen Kamara Incide...

The Sandro Tonali scandal makes one thing abundantly clear: governing bodies, leagues, and even Rangers are going to face a reckoning before too long. Shane is back for a brand new edition of Second Hand News discussing the role of gambling in football and what sport should have learned from America's past-time... at least before everyone in seats of power conveniently forgot the lesson. CROsc...

The CROpod return tour continues as the first new edition of Don't Ask Me No Questions hits your earholes! Shane is joined by CROpod-newcomer Danny to talk about a very busy past week at the club. How'd Clement do in his first appearances? What does imminent actually mean? And when does Todd Cantwell get his own television programme? CROscarf AVAILABLE NOW! ⁠ Yes, we have a fantastic new s...

It's another new dawn at Ibrox as Philippe Clement takes over the manager's seat. For some reason, we've coupled that with a steady stream of the usual corporate speak coming from the board. Welcoming the Belgian; success should be measured in trophies; and former managers fielding questions. That and more in this edition of Second Hand News. SUPPORT THE CROpod!

Shane and David are prepping for their new CROpod/H&H crossover following on from last year's Watergate series, a look at the triumphs and failures (let's be honest, mostly the failures) of the postwar era. But we've been doing these sorts of things for nearly three years now. Here's our first effort in that vain: from early 2021, it's our look at the untimely end of four A...

Because there can never be enough content on the internet, Second Hand News is back on the CROpod! Shane's here with a look at one of Scottish football's most consistent performers over the past decade. Plus, VAR continues to work exactly as expected; the endless search for Rangers next manager; let your CEO do what a CEO does, unless you think he can't; and some vintage U.S. sport med...

The day has finally arrived: CROpod is back for realsies. Shane is joined by David and Todd and thankfully everything is good and okay with the world and Rangers so there's nothing to do but 90 minutes of jokes. Avoiding the news of the day; shows we've seen recently; comics who deserve to stay in the dustbin of society; plus plenty of your questions are answered and more! SUPPORT THE CROp...

Baseball has long been the national pastime of the US, and because one has so much time to kill while it's being played, baseball is pretty damn weird. Colin doesn't get it and Shane is here to do his best in a new CROpod Explains America. Pick off throws, anthem standoffs, fans interfering in the games, and why cheating is okay! Until it's not. The very nature of the sport lends itself to any num...

A full day of CROpod content comes to end as Shane is joined by H&H regular and Nolecast host Ingram Smith to discuss why we love college football so much. Not missing a chance to score points, Shane reminds Ingram of the 1998 National Championship game as often as possible as both the guys are living vicariously through glory years for their respective programs gone by. But the pair find comm...

Saturday was good; Tuesday not so much. But Tuesday's gone and Shane and Peter are back for a new edition of Don't Ask Me No Questions! When do we actually get a right-wing?
