Episode 1282: McGregor’s Star Wipe, Khabib Nightmare, Scholes’ Free Speech, Beached Whale, US Murph’s National Shame

Wed 3rd Oct 2018
Eoin, Ken, Murph, Brian Murphy and Petesy Carroll

Conor McGregor is back in the public consciousness, but has the golden lustre slipped somewhat? That’s up for discussion on today’s pod, as McGregor gets back to actually fighting again, as opposed to showing off how rich he is.

 

Petesy Carroll is in studio to discuss why Khabib is a nightmare opponent for a ring-rusty McGregor, and why McGregor is more famous, and less relevant, than the last time he fought in the UFC.

 

US Murph picks over the bones of the US Ryder Cup team, and we also discuss Taylor Swift, his feelings of national shame, Le’veon Bell, Earl Thomas, withholding your services, and Brian gives his views on grunge, what with it being #GrungeWeek, and all.

 

Paul Scholes’ free speech, traffic in Manchester, beached whales, and arguments over the very nature of grunge itself are all also on what is an impressively eclectic menu.
