    About this Episode

    Bad Language! A funny chat. Louder than life and doesn't seem to care too much for random peoples opinions. But under that tattooed exterior, there's a heart and a soft side too! 

    Love Island, dealing with the fall out and the loss of a loved one. Owning a nightclub in Zante. Social Media. Doing what scares you, using that as a focus to achieve your goals.

    Starting Only Fans, and everything that goes with it. Starting Crossfit and absolutely loving the training. This Ep had a bit of everything!

    Huge thanks LT Scaffold, Links Recruitment and Tiny Rebel Brewery

    Great to catch up with Marc and chat all things health, fitness, and playing in the Premier League.

    Ep190 - Lauren Price MBE - 'The Lucky One'; Professional Boxer with Olympic Gold and multiple World titles

    What a story, and the best is yet to come. Kickboxing, Football, Boxing. Olympics Gold, World Titles and full senior caps. Despite a tough start to life, Lauren has gone on to be an unbelievable multi disciplined athlete. Currently 6 & 0 as a pro boxer after winning Gold at Tokyo2020, she has her sights set on the world belts this year. I loved this conversation, Lauren's attitude to life, and the fact she is so humble and down to earth despite being a killer in the ring!

    Ep189 - Becky Adlington OBE - Olympics Golds, Swimming, Social Media, Hate & Real Life

    This was an emotional rollercoaster. We spoke about everything, from growing up swimming, to winning Olympic Gold. Resilience in spades. From fitting in (or not) at school, to years of online hate and trolls due to her looks. Miscarriage and dealing with loss, to being the best version of herself she can be. What a great human being, who is continuing to inspire the next generation of swimmers and her own family 🙌🏽

    Ep188 - Dave Attwood - Rugby, Aperol, and Philosophical Conversations

    Interesting fella is Dave! Philosophical in his outlook and speaks a lot of sense. Has thrown men about on the pitch for years, playing for Bristol, Gloucester, Bath, Toulon and England. A great career on it, genuine highs and lows both on and off the field, and carving a new direction off it with Farleigh Performance and Apero (Check that out theaperobar.com )

    Ep187 - Ben O'Keeffe - Rugby Union 6 Nations & Test Match Referee

    'The Referee's a....' really sound bloke! What a top guy. We sat down on the eve of the 6 Nations, 48 hours before he reffed Wales vs Scotland in Cardiff. I Could have chatted for hours. So open about the game from his pov, with real insights as to what referee's go through week to week. Immense highs and lows. Social Media abuse. Respect from the players and coaches, and a desire to be the best he can be. Great speaker, articulate with some good banter too. This is a must if you love Rugby

    Ep186 - Rachael Burford - Harlequins Rugby, England Women and making an impact off-field

    What a player. What a person. 84 England Caps, and in her final season as a professional rugby player, still owning the 12 shirt at Harlequins - But, it's equally as impressive the career and opportunities Rachael is forging off the field too. Making an impact in genuinely growing the game, helping the next generation of girls, and spilling all on her 'Shut Up Juice' 👀

    Ep185 - Simon Grayson - Over 1200 games as a Football Manager and Player

    Loved this catch up, what a great guy Simon is. He's managed Blackpool twice, Leeds United, Huddersfield Town, Preston NE, Sunderland, Bradford, Fleetwood Town and just come back from a few years in India. Over 500 games as a professional player. He has forgotten more then I will ever know about being a quality Football Manager. He gives insight in to what it is really like to manage a club, players, transfers, CEO's, agents and the media, all with a smile on his face! 

    Ep184 - Neville Southall - Everton and Wales Football Legend

    Ep184 - Neville Southall - Everton and Wales Football Legend

    Fortunate enough to grab a few hours with a genuine football legend, who isn't afraid to speak his mind. We cover everything from footy, goalkeepers, playing the modern way, so society, social media and a bit of politics 🤣

    What a top bloke, I could have sat with him for hours and chatted about everything football nostalgia and how the game is played today. 

    Huge thanks to Ross at The 86 Store for putting us both in touch, and Dan at Cardiff Classic Shirts for coming on board for this podcast. https://cardiffclassicshirts.co.uk/ or https://www.instagram.com/cardiffclassicshirts/

    Ep183 - Tom Johnson - Exeter Chiefs, England, & Living Well

    Great chat with Tom who had a class career on the pitch, and he's forging a new career off it too. We could have sat for hours putting the world to rights around a load of subjects. It was great to get an understanding on Tom's journey, his mindset, and how he approaches life's challenges. Plenty of highs but also some serious lows too which he wasn't afraid to touch on. Top player and a better bloke!

    Ep182 - Graham Coughlan - Newport County Manager & Over 500+ Professional Appearances

    Ep182 - Graham Coughlan - Newport County Manager & Over 500+ Professional Appearances

    Fortunate to catch Graham leading into the xmas period where Newport County play Wrexham and Forest Green Rovers. I absolutely loved him, and what they're trying to do at Newport, built from graft, grit and resilience. I didn't know Graham from before, but remember him as an ever present for Plymouth Argyle as I was growing up. Top player, evolving manager and a better bloke.
