Row Z

Ahead of the final few weeks of the Premier League campaign and with Joe finally having his throat operation to stop him sounding like Sean Dyche, we thought this would be a good opportunity to put out our favourite bits of our first season. It's been an amazing experience, with the show hitting hundreds of thousands of monthly views, landing a slot on national radio and getting our first award-no...

There was also plenty of chat a...

In a turbulent week for popular culture, we discuss slaps at the Oscars, boos at Wembley and whether it’s ever permissible to eat a pickled onion with a roast dinner.

Try as he might, Joe can’t avoid talking about a sad week for Spurs, as the glory of the Manchester City victory is replaced by the disappointment of a loss to Burnley and Antonio Conte’s troubling post-match comments.
