This week we bring you 12 different sports, and our guest-Graham Ledger- chats about how he got involved in cricket through the ECB's All Stars coaching programme, as well as the commitment of the on and off-field teams at his local club, Ashford. Andy has bragging rights this week as Newcastle avenged their League Cup Final defeat by Manchester United with a 2-0 league win over Tony's Red Devils at St James' Park. This puts the Toon back in the top four. Meanwhile with Brendan Rodgers and Graham Potter getting axed this week, Tony looks over the 12 Premier League management casualties so far this season. The US Master Golf kicks off this weekend, so we have a preview – including the retirement of former winner Sandy Lyle and the stunning scenery of the famous Augusta course. In Rugby Union we discuss England's dominant display over Italy in the Women's 6 Nations and France's big win over Ireland – that keeps the two teams on course for a Grand Slam finale at Twickenham at the end of April. And in Rugby League it was the 4th round of the Challenge Cup, where the teams outside the Super League are competing for the final 4 places with the top teams in the 6th Round. We also have a slew of records in Athletics and Cricket, and in Horse Racing Doddie's Impact – named after Scotland rugby player and Motor Neurone Disease campaigner Doddie Weir – won in the first weekend of the flat season, with his owners making a significant donation from the prize money to the MND charity that Doddie set up. Yet another cracking episode from the team!

Eric and Ryan back at it again with neighbor-talk, new Al stories, and medical updates!

Episode 89 is another cracker as we cast our eagle eyes over 9 different sports! We start with a review of the NFL Superbowl, with Patrick Mahomes showing why he was this season's Most Valuable Player (MVP) as he led the Kansas City Chiefs to a final win over the Philadelphia Eagles. We then tackle rugby union and discuss home wins for Ireland, Scotland and England-with the Murrayfield game marking the culmination of the Doddie Aid 555 charity cycle ride as they delivered the match ball, and Scotland's captain being given the Doddie Weir Cup by Doddie's wife. IN skateboarding we celebrate a first World Championship Gold for Britain's Sky Brown, with the 14 year old adding the gold in Sharjah to the Olympic bronze she won in Tokyo. We also have updates from Athletics, the Premier League and Women's Super League, Golf, the Women's T20 Cricket World Cup and the start of a new Rugby League Super League season (with Andy applying the kiss of death with his predictions!). A true cornucopia of sports for you to enjoy!

To kick off the first episode of 2023 we are delighted to be joined by former Scotland captain and British and Irish Lion, Rob Wainwright.  Rob joins host Chris Paterson during the second week of this year's Doddie Aid - a virtual mass-participation exercise event he founded to help raise funds for My Name'5 Doddie Foundation which invests in research to find meaningful treatments for Motor Neuron Disease (MND). There's still time to get involved by visiting doddieaid.com

We kick off the 2023 Doddie Aid event with a return to the podcast for Warriors, Scotland and Lions prop and all round great lad, Zander Fagerson. Some chat about our New Years Day "Doddie Dooks", or lack of them in some cases, and maybe some forfeits for one of the hosting trifecta. We also touch on Doddie's legacy and Zander's memories of him, along with an update on his injury and hopes for the 6 Nations for himself and the Scotland team. A great chat and please listen in and also get involved in Doddie Aid yourself if not signed up already! Once that's done join our league for a chance at some great prizes including a signed jersey from the 1872 cup winning Glasgow Warriors squad!

This week along with a few mates, Scott, Derek and Andrew, all of whom are fellow commentators at the Royal Highland Show, we roll out the Christmas drink and have a laugh, as well as some serious chat. We start by mentioning a few great folks that the industry has lost over the past year. When we get to big Doddie it opens up a discussion about the fact that many great rugby players were and are farmers. A random chat about using crossbred rams leaves us divided although the concept Scott raises of producing a Wagyu type lamb does have its merits. We then dissect some farm diversification schemes until that chat morphs into other hilarity, and much editing! .

The lads return for a chat to preview the upcoming Doddie Aid 2023 challenge with Team Glasgow Captain, Ryan Wilson. Obviously the 2023 event is going to be undertaken with an element of sadness due to the recent passing of Doddie, but we hope that honouring his legacy will spur people on to make this the biggest one yet.

He recruited former Scotland International and team mate of Doddie, Budge Poutney for his 5 marathons in 5 days in Northern Ireland.

The last in the series of Doddie Aid specials as the 2022 challenge comes to an end on the 12th Feb! What a way to wrap it up by having the driving force behind Doddie Aid and one of Doddie's best pals, not to mention for British & Irish Lion and Scotland Captain...Mr Rob Wainwright! This one was an absolute hoot as we talk Doddie Aid, the Calcutta Cup victory and preview the Doddie Cup 500 cycle from Murrayfield to Cardiff Castle.

This week on The Michael Anthony Show, the inspirational Doddie Weir shares his story that has seen the former British and Irish Lion fight the incurable Motor Neurons Disease for the past four years. Retiring from international rugby with sixty one caps in 2000, the six foot six Weir was enjoying his new life both professionally and as a father, until a series of twitches and continuous muscle wasting sent the Scotsman to his doctor.Informed that his days of walking would be over within a year, before his speech and entire body would eventually give in to the unforgiving disease, the legendary second row was not expected to see 2020. But Weir knows only how to fight, and as he continues to not only walk and talk, the foundation that began under his name in 2017 continues to strive, raising just short of five million pounds with the goal of finding out more about this mysterious condition.In this Episode, Weir opens up about the day to day struggles of living with an illness that does not leave survivors, and as life becomes more and more challenging for him physically, mentally the former Newcastle Falcon is as strong as ever. Hope is something that Doddie will not lose, and self-victimisation has never been an option. Although the underdog, this "mad giraffe" will never stop competing.Listen to Episode 91 now available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more.MA Show.Support the show (https://open.spotify.com/show/0sP68DtD7qCl4Rs2wGKJD4)

Ben Stokes won SPOTY, with England cricketers Team of the Year and winning the World Cup Moment of the Year - plenty of other big name winners though too!

For this episode, I made a special trip up to Edinburgh to visit the Scottish legend Doddie Weir in his own home. Whilst Doddie is known to many for his rugby career, gaining over 60 caps for the Scottish National Team, most will know him for his drive and motivation to raise awareness about Motor Neurone Disease. Doddie was diagnosed with MND nearly 3 years ago, but Doddie hasn't let this stop him being positive and an inspiration to many. Doddie and his foundation have raised over £5 million and it is still rising every day.

This episode is a special feature with guest speaker Doddie Weir OBE, Scottish rugby legend and founder of the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation. After his own diagnosis, Doddie set up the Foundation both to support other sufferers and their families and also to raise funds to aid research into MND, to find a cure for disease. Here he is with old friend and teammate David Sole OBE, as they reminisce about the good old days, dealing with diagnosis, and the work of the Foundation.

Tomorrow morning, a group of intrepid cyclists will head out from Portobello High School, escorting Gordon Barclay as he sets out on a 500 mile ride to Portobello Road in London. The aim is to raise money for research into Motor Neurone Disease (MND). It all began on his 50th birthday. A friend from his days at Porty High, Ian Henderson - now a councillor in London, told him the tragic story of a woman called Clarrie who not only had lost people in the Grenfell Tower Fire but had just been diagnosed with MND. They decided to raise money, in part to help her and in part to help Doddie Weir’s MND Charity, My Name’5 Doddie. This morning, they met in the Kings Manor Hotel in Portobello which is where David Calder caught up with them.https://www.portobellotoportobello.co.uk/about.htmlhttps://www.myname5doddie.co.uk/

This week on the podcast Cammy chats to Stewart Weir, journalist and close friend of Doddie Weir who has co-written Doddie's autobiography, "My Name'5 Doddie".
