Episode 3436: The 2025 Second Captains Christmas Sports Pudding!
This was one of the great years in Irish sport which means loads of fun Second Captains podcasts and plenty of “friend of the show” Mark Horgan audio beds.

Throw in some archive gold, mad boxers, crazy Ken, Ronaldo’s boo hoo moment and of course, the breakout star of 2025, Branno, and you have yourself a romper stomper of a Second Captains Christmas Sports Pudding. Happy Christmas everybody!
