We’re getting in touch with a bunch of top sports people to see if they want come on the podcast to reveal the specific game that changed their careers and by extension their entire lives. We’ve gone big for our first guest, one of the greatest Irish sportspeople of all time, Paul O’Connell.

With the news that Liverpool have done what Shankly would have wanted and reversed their decision to furlough staff, Ken channels the Scotsman to see if it’s really what he would have done.

Plus there’s Ken and POC’s mutual enemy, Eoin’s stories from backpacking in Australia, and a listener who knows when to fold ’em.
