Episode 2640: GAA Peno Panic, Rom Redemption Arc, Dechambeau Eats A Vegetable

Inter have qualified for the Champions League final, and even the fact that Ken reckons Aston Villa would give them a hell of a game at the moment can’t bring them down.  We discuss their 3-0 aggregate win over AC Milan, and Romelu Lukaku’s revealing post-match chat with Thierry Henry and friends.

It’s the start of the new-look All-Ireland football championship this weekend, and Paul Flynn and Michael Murphy look ahead to the group stages – as well as an intriguing insight into why GAA players are always going to struggle more with spot-kicks.

And Michael admits a certain reserve about how good or otherwise Kerry are ahead of their home game with Mayo.
