Welcome back to the Royal Blue podcast!
Fresh from wedding festivities, Matt and Paddy are back to tackle the real big event of the weekend - Dundee 0-4 Everton. The Blues are back and did the business in Scotland. Beto and Barry scored, but did Adam Aznou steal the show? And is there a place for him in the squad next season? We also talk transfers. Jarrod Bowen will not be coming to Everton, but will Morgan Rogers'£117m move to Chelsea move the needle in the market? We assess how it could work both for and against the Blues. And there's Jordan Pickford chat. Could England really move on from him after this tournament and what kind of impact could that have on Everton?
Dundee United are closing in on signing No.10 of the summer. The team chat about what to expect from Philadelphia Union left-back Phillipe Ndinga, who is expected to join the club in the coming days. The Congo U/20 international will provide competition for Will Ferry, who was back in the Tangerines' team on Saturday and produced a splendid display against Arbroath. There's also focus on Julius Eskesen, Bert Esselink and why United need to hit the goal trail when The Spartans come to town. Across the road, it was an afternoon to forget for Dundee keeper Harry Sharp against Everton. Graeme Finnan, formerly a fine keeper with Lochee United and Dundee North End (among others), assesses an error-strewn showing – and whether there were any positives to take from the visit of the Toffees. And is there a hint of Luke Graham about Charley Oosenbrugh? Alan Temple is joined by Graeme Finnan for this Monday's episode. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos

This week, the lads have swapped the studio for the upper tiers of Everton's state-of-the-art Hill Dickinson Stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock. Hitting tee shots from the stands down to the pitch below as part of the spectacular Upper Deck Golf event, Ian and Joe chat all things Toffees between swings. From pre-season preparations to massive transfer questions, this is your ultimate guide to the Blue summer.
Matt, Mark and Dave take some time to talk Toffees after a morning at Hill Dickinson Stadum. Everton play their first pre-season friendly on Saturday at Dundee. Are they ready to come back? Are we ready? We also look back at England's World Cup exit and reflect on our experience at Upper Deck golf.
Dundee United lost 1-0 at Montrose thanks to Ross Graham's howler – how bad was it against the Mighty Mo? What does it mean for skipper Graham? And which forgotten star is making a case for a comeback? While United made hard work of things on the east coast, Dundee were making light work of things in the south. They smashed Annan 5-0 with Charlie Reilly stealing the show once more. How did new signing Zan Besir get on? And what is going on with Aaron Donnelly? In the studio alongside host Sean Hamilton are Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

Can Dundee turn a season of survival into a season of ambition? After winning over sceptical supporters, what can Steven Pressley achieve in year two?Charlotte Cohen sits down with George Cran and Robin Grimmond to debate the big talking points surrounding Dundee ahead of the new campaign.Have Dundee recruited well enough to offset some major departures? Which players are poised to make the biggest impact, and could Ashley Hay become the goalscorer fans have been waiting for?Most importantly, is a long-awaited top-six finish a realistic target or wishful thinking?
Competitive futba is back – and that means so is the Monday Twa Teams, One Street. We have plenty of goals to talk about, some stunning ones too. There was a sleepy start for Dundee before an emphatic ending. While United left it late in Stirling to grab all three points. Plus a new signing at Tannadice to get stuck into and there's something about a wooden leg, too. Just the three amigos this morning as Alan Temple is joined by George Cran and Graeme Finnan.

This interview is with Sirpa Peacock of Ocelli Cellars. In this interview, Sirpa discusses her work in the Oregon wine industry and her path to starting her own brand.Sirpa talks about how she began in the industry. A Linfield University graduate in sociology, Sirpa was not looking forward to more schooling, so she decided to get into an industry she enjoyed. She started working part-time at a wine bar and kept growing from there. Her unique talent of establishing structure and organization opened doors for her to keep evolving within the industry and working at places such as Archery Summit, Colene Clemens, and Appassionata Estate.Sirpa discusses the beginnings of starting her wine brand with her husband, John. Ocelli was born in 2013 after her husband jokingly said to their winemaking friend that it would be fun to start a brand. That friend let them use some barrels to start their project and the rest is history. For the next decade, Sirpa and John would work their full-time jobs while producing and selling their small brand.Later in the interview, Sirpa talks about their new tasting room. Opening in March of 2026, the Ocelli tasting room is actually a dual tasting room with another small brand, Stephen Goff Wines. Sirpa wanted the tasting room to have a “neighborhood vibe” where people can experience comfortable community. Sirpa is confident for the growth of the tasting room and cannot wait to watch it evolve. This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at the Ocelli Cellars tasting room in Dundee on July 8, 2026.
This interview is with John Peacock of Ocelli Cellars. In this interview, John discusses his beginnings in analytics and unique transition into wine full-time.John talks about his job experience and introduction to wine. Majoring in real estate finance at Portland State University, John had a lot of jobs in analytics. John was introduced to wine by his wife, Sirpa, and was not a fan of the beverage until he tried Pinot Gris. After enjoying wine together, John and Sirpa decided to make wine their hobby and create their own wine brand in 2013 while still maintaining their seriate full-time jobs. In 2023, John was laid off from his wine production software job and decided it was time to embrace Ocelli as a full-time gig.John discusses his hopes for the new Ocelli tasting room that opened in March of 2026. John considers wine more than a beverage and strives for community within the tasting room. John loves that the Oregon wine industry allows people to create the environments they want to create. He believes that there is new experiences available and something for everyone. Later in the interview, John talks about his goal to never retire from Ocelli. John believes he already lives in paradise and currently does what he wants to do for the rest of his life. In the future, John hopes to hire others to manage the everyday tasks so he can focus on the winemaking and logistics and “sprinkle the winemaker dust” in the tasting room.This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at the Ocelli Cellars tasting room in Dundee on July 8, 2026.

George is in Hungary with Dundee and is being kept busy. We discuss whether Billy Koumetio's move to Charlton Athletic was a shock and how Luke Graham's impending switch to Stoke City could unluck a future mega-payout. Who is impressing in the Dee's warm weather camp, and will they be swooping for any of their trialists? Plus, we spotlight the Dens Park prospect who could ‘be like a new signing'. And there's tales of George's Budapest joyride and how his phone ended up in a fridge. Back on home soil, Dundee United have completed signing No.7 with the arrival of goalkeeper Jordan Amissah. Could he realistically challenge Jack Walton for the gloves? What positions are the priority for the Terrors now that the goalkeeping department is fully stocked? We also have the latest on Will Ferry's future after the Tangerines accepted a £1.7 million offer from a club in Czechia, with the Ireland international not currently part of pre-season training as a result. What happens now? In the studio alongside host Sean Hamilton, are Dundee United reporter Alan Temple, Graeme Finnan and, dialling in from Hungary, Dundee correspondent George Cran.

How did a storm-battered Spanish ship, a Dundee harbour, and a grocer's wife with a pan full of unsaleable bitter oranges accidentally create one of the first registered trademarks in British history — and a product that would end up on breakfast tables from Edinburgh to Bombay? Why did the family fortune from that single kitchen experiment eventually pay for the restoration of Avebury, one of the greatest prehistoric monuments in Europe? And what does any of this have to do with Paddington Bear and Monty Don?Join John and Patrick as they tell the story of Scotland and marmalade — the Keiller factory, the empire in a jar, and the most consequential use of unsaleable citrus in history...----------In Sponsorship with J&K Fresh.The customs broker who is your fruit and veggies' personal bodyguard.

Struggling with retention, churn, or adoption in your product, service, or program? Get the free Core Drives in the Wild guide and see how to apply real behavioral design to your engagement: professorgame.com/WildCD Episode Summary Alan Yeats, CEO of Pocket Sized Hands, a co-development game studio in Dundee, Scotland, explains why the best learning games start with play and add the curriculum second. He walks through real projects, a knife-crime prevention game stopped cold by school firewalls and a stem cell science game built with Cambridge University, to show how co-design keeps everyone pointed at the same goal. Alan argues that the job is to find the underlying play and the real "why" behind a request, not to cram years of lessons into one product. Listeners come away with a practical filter for any educational or engagement project: build a genuinely good game first, then weave the learning in so people actually engage. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways Pocket Sized Hands built a polished Jackbox-style game to steer young people away from knife crime, then hit a wall when school IT firewalls blocked the phone-to-screen connection the experience ran on. The end user is never the only stakeholder a product has to satisfy. For Cambridge University, the studio corrected public misconceptions about stem cell science by running back-to-basics workshops to isolate the one message that mattered, rather than cramming an entire syllabus into a single game. Alan Yeats's rule for education clients who want to throw the whole textbook at a game: make it genuinely fun first, then layer the lessons in, because curriculum with no play earns no engagement to teach against. Co-design converts a client from someone who merely commissioned a product into an owner who evangelizes it, which is why Pocket Sized Hands opens projects with a workshop for facilitators and real users instead of a written spec. Pitching the visual register openly, from a corporate LinkedIn-style progress bar to a fully magical world, lets a team test how far it can push a client before the client pushes back with "that is too much fun."

We're covering a lot of ground today! With Aaron out of town the next two weeks, we're previewing not only this Sunday, but June 21 and 28. We also cover Pride celebrations in Batavia and Dundee, reflecting on the nature of welcome and the challenge of unity and diversity in the Fox Valley. In Batavia, we're got three new stories: "A Church for All," "I'll Love You Forever," and "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day," which will shape our next three weeks. In Dundee, we've got at least two stories to focus on: that of Zacchaeus and the other of the "rich young ruler." What happens when we say yes to Jesus and our life changes? What happens when we say no and it doesn't? Thanks for your patience while we're away for two weeks. See you soon!

In questa puntata:- Focus: Andy di Chiacchierata Calcistica lascia momentaneamente i campi della Serie C per venirci a raccontare il suo paese: la Scozia
This interview is with Diego Valeri of Conur Wines. In this interview, Diego talks about his journey of becoming a professional soccer player with the Portland Timbers and eventually creating his own wine company.Diego talks about how creating a wine company was not actually his idea, but his wife, Florencia's scheme. However, Diego planned to wait until he retired to begin the endeavor. After nine reasons with the Timbers, Diego and his family moved to Florida where he met Frederico Garobbio and his wife Luci who were from the same area of Argentina. The stars aligned when Frederico revealed that it was his dream to produce wine. Diego discusses his connection to wine as the center of communication and celebration. To Diego, wine was always in the middle of socializing and friendship. As the company began with four Argentinians who live in the United States, the team wanted to put their blended cultures in the bottle. Along with what is inside the bottle, the design of the labels features a cartoon dog with a special meaning to the four owners. Florencia even writes a special story on the back of each label.Later in the interview, Diego talks about the uniqueness of Conur Wines. Specifically, Conur produces a white blend called “Mate” that blends Argentina and Oregon grapes. He also discusses his 70/30 blend of pinot and Malbec that mirrors a popular drink in Argentina.This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at Northwest Wine Company in Dundee on June 2, 2026.
This interview is with Jim Maresh of Arterberry Maresh.

Chris 'Brolga' Barns fell in love with joeys and became a kangaroo 'mum'. He rescues orphaned baby kangaroos, or joeys, carrying them around in a pillowcase to mimic their mum's pouch. While working as a tour guide in the Australian outback, Brolga would always check the pouches of kangaroos killed by cars lying on the side of the road, where often the joeys would still be alive. The plan was to look after them until they could be released back into the wild, but sometimes they had been injured and couldn't outrun dingoes or bush fires. So Brolga gave up his job to create a kangaroo sanctuary for them in Alice Springs, in Australia's red centre. After leading some land and digging for 18 months to build a giant dingo-proof fence, he spent all his money. He ended up living in a tin shack on site, without any electricity or a toilet, sharing his bed with the orphaned joeys he was caring for. But the visitors he had hoped for did not come, and he had no income. Things were looking bleak. Then he starred in a BBC documentary series called Kangaroo Dundee. The title was a play on the hit comedy film Crocodile Dundee, about a man from the outback who wows everyone in the big city. Brolga's TV appearance wowed too - much to his surprise, he received hundreds of emails from female fans, who were unaware that he had a brand-new girlfriend (now his wife). The show guaranteed the Kangaroo Sanctuary's survival, and Brolga was able to dedicate all his time to mothering orphaned joeys. One of his first rescues, an alpha male kangaroo called Roger, became an internet sensation for always trying to attack his 'mum', Brolga, who he now saw as a rival. And recently some of Brolga's joeys starred in a family film called Kangaroo, inspired by his life.
