While he was building a career as one of Spain’s top football journalists, Sid Lowe also found the time to complete a PhD in history.

He was a guest at our end-of-year show in Liberty Hall and talked to us about the Spanish reaction to Catalonia’s drive for independence. He also gave a final definitive verdict on Messi v Ronaldo.

Plus there’s Pep’s passion, PHD pain, and Murph’s University of Life.
