BANG AVERAGE CHAT THAT YOU won’t want to END.

Jason Tovey

Jason only retired in the summer and is now playing amateur rugby, but he had so many questions come up on our Instagram and twitter, we thought we would use those as the basis to form our convo. Insightful, no holds barred, both scathing and funny at times – Here’s a lad that’s seen it all in Welsh Club Rugby

Dave Radband

What a mental chat with Dave. A career in the military. Over 10 tours in hostile environments, being shot at and blown up. Paratrooper and Special Forces. PTSD and Personality Disorder. Multiple suicide attempts. And now a new career, a family, and a life left behind. 

Will Evans

What a grounded and top bloke Will is. He didn’t take the normal route in to football, instead grafting, going to Uni, working, and playing in the Welsh Prem. Then came that Wales vs England game. Now he’s creating waves over at Newport County, and things look good for Will.

DJ Forbes

One of my heroes watching the 7s circuit over the years, with that huge beard and bald head – I was like DJ Forbes after 40 kebabs! Fresh from the Hong Kong 7s, a great chat with someone who’s genuinely won it all in their field, played with and against some of the greats, became an Olympian, and has transitioned over to the other side of sport.

Harry McNulty

A mainstay of the Ireland 7s team, recently getting to the Olympics, and doing well on both the World 7s Series, and the recent 7s RWC. In his spare time, his work with a camera and on Safari in Kenya is also unreal too.

Mike Brown

I didn’t know what to expect from Mike, having only ever known him through what the press and social media said of him, with their own agenda. What I found was an articulate and clever player, who cared an awful lot for Quins and country, and who is absolutely misunderstood by the aforementioned

Garry Banford

You can see how he’s shelved those SBS and Military experiences as things that define him, whilst pulling on the lessons learned, to help others in the corporate and sports world. He makes a lot of sense, and I can see how he would add real value to a company.

Chris Hill

Had a great laugh with Chris, fresh off the back of England RL’s World Cup warm up game on Friday vs Fiji, heading into next week’s RLWC. Huddersfield, Warrington, Leigh, and Great Britain, Chris delves into them all, his career, and his businesses on the side too. 

Mike Bates

Mike is currently training to ambark on a solo row across the Atlantic. Is it absolutely insane, and we delve in to the why’s and how’s in more detail. This follows a career as a Royal Marines Commando (Going after Saddam, Osama and others), and the Covert Op’s and Human Intelligence & Account Handling

Jerry Flannery

Spoke to Jerry midweek, and then watched Harlequins in a contender for game of the season whilst editing. It was so interesting listening to him talk, whilst watching what he’s paid to do. He talks all things coaching, working with talent, culture in teams, that Munster changing room, playing for Ireland, and the Lions.

Luther Burrell

It was fascinating to chat about the recent press coverage, his experiences of Racism in Rugby, Rugby in general. and having a laugh with Eddie Jones. We laughed a lot in this episode and spoke in depth about some serious issues too. Top player, better bloke.

Simon Jeffries – SBS

Interesting to hear him talking about mindsets, purpose, and the little things everyone in society can do to help themselves both physically and mentally. I can see why he is so successful with The Natural Edge, but also why he held a successful career in the Marines, Special Forces, and the SBS.

Robin Horsfall – SAS

Robin joined the army at 15, after a tough childhood. He joined the Para-Troopers before his 18th birthday, and passed SAS selection at 22. Northern Ireland, The Iranian Embassy siege, and the Falklands, amongst other tours.

Katie Owen

When Katie’s not warming up the crowd at Kasabian gigs, she’s working for Sport Bible at the Women’s Euro’s, warming up the crowd for Wales Footy matches, hosting her own Radio shows, and hosting the Main Stage in Leeds for Reading & Leeds Festival!

Adam Linforth – Budgy Smuggler

Anyone who knows me, knows I love the guys at Budgy’s, but also what the brand stands for, and the fun associated with them. They’re creating a community of like minded people, who want to have great times, and feel good in themselves.
