Richie and David explore the drinking culture in the Irish football team, quitting alcohol, how anger almost destroyed David’s career, the pitfalls of being your own agent, blooming late, and what it feels like to be called up to the Irish team for the first time.

Plus there’s X5 SADS, ‘typical’ footballers, the gentleman of Sopot, tattoo terror and the listener who listened too much.
