Andy Dawson and Sam Delaney are looking back at old football and looking ahead at new football but never, ever standing still.
The Top Flight Time Machine podcast is an absolute gem in the world of podcasts. Hosted by Sam Delaney and Andy Dawson, this show combines hilarious banter, wit, and insightful commentary to create an entertaining listen that will leave you laughing out loud. I have been a dedicated listener throughout lockdown and can confidently say that this podcast is better than drinking bleach.
One of the best aspects of The Top Flight Time Machine is the chemistry between Sam Delaney and Andy Dawson. These two hosts have a seamless rapport that allows them to bounce off each other effortlessly. Their comedic timing is impeccable, and their stories never fail to leave me in stitches. Whether it's Sam's storytelling or Andy's quick-witted remarks, there is always something that will make your mind feel better and keep you coming back for more.
Another great aspect of this podcast is its ability to create inside jokes and innuendos that make it far superior to any other sport parody show out there. From "kicking dicks in the knackers" to references from Euro 96, there are countless moments that will have you laughing along with the hosts. The amount of content available through their subscription service is also worth every penny.
While it's hard to find any faults with The Top Flight Time Machine, some listeners may not appreciate the heavy use of football references. However, even as a non-football fan myself, I found that only a small portion of their stories required prior knowledge of the sport. The majority of their discussions revolve around life events and humorous anecdotes that anyone can relate to and enjoy.
In conclusion, The Top Flight Time Machine podcast is an absolute must-listen for anyone looking for a hilarious and entertaining show. With its witty banter, engaging stories, and fantastic chemistry between hosts Sam Delaney and Andy Dawson, this podcast has become one of my favorites. Whether you're a football fan or not, give this podcast a listen - you won't be disappointed.
