Customer Reviews
Brilliant Comedy Podcast That Sometimes Mentions Sport
This is not a sports podcast, it’s a comedy pod with sport involved, so its appeal is universal. Two comedians and another bloke joking and enjoying lots of laughs. The humour is infectious and every few episodes there’s a moment that makes me cry with mirth.
Like laughing with mates
The best podcast around. As a Cardiff boy living in America and not getting home much, this is exactly what I need to remind myself where I’m from.
Used to love the POD
I used to love this POD but it seems they are happy hiding behind the pay. I started listening to the POD durning Covid and I would enjoy the 2 hour POD on my hikes but it seems like everything else in the world it’s all about the money. Yes you get content but they broke it up Biweekly now. It’s a great listen but you really have to pay to get the experience of what it used to be like. There are so many great pods to listen to that don’t require a pay wall. They have adds and a paywall.
