    In this season finale we ramble through the usual mix of sports chat, with added poetry! Our final Gold/Silver/Bronze Dean Macey of the season is all about sports people we love to hate. As well as offending the nation of Holland (11.56) we delve into some irrational hatred (25.00) and some notable loathsome coaches (35.00 & 53.00). We close the episode with some Olympics (1.00.02) and Lions rugby tour chat (1.17.20) before rounding up some season highlights (1.23.27). Sports mentioned in this episode: Football, rugby, snooker, cricket, tennis, gymnastics, BMX, triathlon, skateboarding.

    In this bonus football-focused episode, we look back on the drama, tension and quality of the Euros semi finals, look ahead to the final through some extremely detailed and possibly far fetched predictions and provide a sneak preview of the Euro 2044 tournament.

    In this edition we take you through notably unusual scorelines in sport; from a surprise Ashes demolition (4.50) to a humiliating football thrashing (8.25) goal fests (12.30) and cricketing ludicrousness (21.55). We then catch up on an eventful Euro 2020 (55.20) and predict the winners (1.24.50). Sports mentioned in this episode: Football, Euro 2020, cricket, rugby, tennis, Wimbledon, baseball, cycling, Tour de France.

    Sporting notoriety dominates this pod. We start this bumper edition with a Gold-Silver-Bronze-Dean Macey (1.58) of sporting moments that cover the ridiculous (7.06) the dark (17.43) and well... Mike Tyson (37.35). We then delve through the annals of European football championships past (47.00), from duds like the 2012 (51.22) edition to classics like Euro96 (1.01.03) as we preview Euro 2020. Sports mentioned in this episode: Football, cricket, cycling, rugby league, boxing.

    Serving suggestion: this episode is best enjoyed accompanied by YouTube. There's goals, goals and more goals as we whittle our all time favourites down to a podium (plus 1) of belters (3.25). Then there's just about time to race through some news (1.01.37) before dodgy connection issues get the better of us leaving Alex to end the show minus the company of Tom. Enjoy! Sports mentioned in this episode: football, golf, F1, baseball, Olympics.

    What rules should be changed in sport? We'll answer this important question (2.45) in this edition of the Frankly, Who Cares? podcast. We open up our listener mailbag (41.29), reflect on a premonition from our first episode (53.50) that has eerily come to pass and we discuss an unlikely (and apparently unfair) one-side international rugby feud (56.10). And what's the big disappointment in what has been an otherwise excellent start to the Formula 1 season (1.00.31)? Listen and find out. Sports mentioned in this episode: Football, boxing, cricket, rugby, snooker, athletics, tennis, F1.

    In this edition we run through the news (3.57) before the ill-fated European Super League (13.50) suffers its final indignity as apologies (25.00) are analysed and fitting punishments (35.02) dished out to The Terrible Twelve. And the pain continues as we select our top three soul-crushing sporting defeats and crown this week's Dean Macey (42.08). Sports mentioned in this episode: Baseball, football, NFL, winter sports (short-track speed skating), rugby, tennis.

    S1 Ep6. It's not a visceral rivalry if it's done in tuxedos
