What does it really mean to believe that God loves you? And how does knowing His love change the way we live as Christians? Rick Robertson of Jubilee Church Wirral explores 1 John 4:7–21 and shows that God's love isn't simply an idea we learn about – it is the foundation from which we live the Christian life. Rick looks at three key truths: 1. Love begins with God. God is the source and the very definition of love. His love is eternal, unchanging and limitless. Unlike human love, which can be imperfect and inconsistent, God's love is completely committed to us. We can be fully known by Him – including our weaknesses, failures and brokenness – and still be completely loved. 2. God's love has been revealed through Jesus. We don't have to wonder what God's love looks like. He demonstrated it by sending His Son, Jesus, into the world. Through Jesus' life, death and resurrection, God's love has been made visible and the barrier of our sin has been dealt with. Jesus brings us into the relationship of love that has existed eternally between the Father and the Son. 3. We need to choose to believe God's love. Knowing that God loves us intellectually isn't enough. We need to receive and believe His love. When we know that we are loved, secure and accepted by God, it changes how we live and how we love others. Rick also explores the important biblical word “propitiation”, explaining how Jesus' death dealt with the problem of sin and removed the barrier that stood between us and God. Ultimately, the message is simple but profound: God knows you completely, and He continues to choose to love you. His love is not dependent on our performance or perfection. As we become rooted in that love, we are increasingly able to love others with the same self-giving, sacrificial and forgiving love that we have received from Him. “We love because he first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19The post Rick Robertson: Choosing to believe in the love of God first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.

"The number one virtue that a man can have is loyalty. Francesco Totti demonstrated that more than anyone." — Nicky Billou Nicky Billou goes solo in this episode, using the 2026 World Cup as his starting point for a straight-talking examination of what modern football reveals about the state of manhood in the West. The argument is simple and uncomfortable: elite young footballers today are technically outstanding and humanly unfinished. José Mourinho said it years ago — Steven Gerrard was already a man at 23. Today's 23-year-olds are boys. Not because they lack talent, but because everything in their development has been managed, protected, and softened. The same forces are at work across Western culture: no unsupervised childhood, delayed responsibility, digital distraction, and institutions that treat discomfort as something to be eliminated rather than endured. Nicky names the men who embodied a different standard — Gerrard, Totti, Maldini, Baresi, Roy Keane, Lothar Matthäus — men who carried enormous responsibility as young men because hardship and consequence were still part of how boys became men. And he makes the case for Francesco Totti as perhaps the greatest embodiment of a single, essential masculine virtue: loyalty. Totti turned down Real Madrid, Manchester United, and every other club that came calling with money and trophies. He lived by a code. And when he finally led Roma to a Serie A title, the meaning of it was something no mercenary career could ever produce. Football, Nicky says, is a metaphor for manhood. The great ones are admired not just because they win, but because at their best they reveal the virtues that make men great. Character is not an accident. It is deliberately forged — and right now, not enough people are doing the forging.

What does it really mean to be a Christian? In ‘The Mark of a True Christian’, Ola Dosunmu of Jubilee Church Wirral looks at Romans 12:9-21, showing that the evidence of genuine faith is seen not simply in what we believe, but in how we live. After explaining God's saving grace throughout the first eleven chapters of Romans, the Apostle Paul turns to the practical outworking of the gospel, revealing the characteristics that should mark every follower of Jesus. Ola explores three key marks of a true Christian: – The Sacrifice of Love: Christ's sacrificial death gives believers a completely new identity. As we spend time with Jesus, the Holy Spirit continues His work of transforming us from the inside out. – The Sincerity of Love: Genuine faith produces genuine love. Christians are called to love without hypocrisy, honour one another, serve faithfully, show hospitality, persevere in prayer and live in peace with others. – The Forgiving Nature of Love: Rather than seeking revenge or repaying evil with evil, followers of Christ are called to bless those who oppose them, trust God with justice and overcome evil by doing good. The Christian life is not about outward religion but about allowing God's love to shape every part of our lives. As we grow closer to Jesus, His character becomes increasingly visible through us.The post Ola Dosunmu: The Mark of a True Christian first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.
Who are you? As part of Jubilee Church Wirral's Foundations for Life series, Chris Griffiths explores one of life's most fundamental questions: “Who am I?” Chris contrasts the labels the world places on us with the unchanging identity God gives to everyone who belongs to Christ. The world constantly seeks to define people by appearance, background, achievements, status, abilities or circumstances. These labels can easily lead to comparison, division, insecurity and conflict. But the gospel offers a completely different starting point: before anything else, believers are children of God. Drawing on passages including John 1:12, Romans 8, 2 Corinthians 5:17 and Galatians 3:28, Chris explains that when we place our faith in Jesus, our primary identity changes forever. We are no longer defined by our past, our failures, our successes or the opinions of others. Instead, we are loved, chosen, accepted, redeemed, forgiven, restored and made new in Christ. Sharing his own powerful testimony, Chris reflects on a difficult childhood marked by family breakdown and responsibility beyond his years, before explaining how giving his life to Jesus at the age of fourteen transformed his understanding of who he was. Rather than allowing his circumstances to define him, he discovered the love, fatherhood and acceptance of God that became the foundation of his identity. Chris also shares how this truth sustained him through his recent cancer journey. In the midst of uncertainty, his greatest confidence was not found in his circumstances but in knowing that he belonged to Jesus. That identity gave him peace, hope and strength when everything else felt uncertain. The message concludes by reminding believers of the unshakable truths that flow from being God's children. In Christ our sins are forgiven, our future is secure, our souls are redeemed and our relationship with God is restored. These are the truths Christians are called to hold onto, even when the voices of the world seek to tell a different story. Whether you're exploring faith or have followed Jesus for many years, this encouraging message points back to the foundation of the Christian life: our identity is not something we earn or create—it is something God graciously gives through Jesus Christ. Bible passages: 1 Samuel 16:7, James 2:1–4, Galatians 3:28, John 1:12, 1 John 3:1, Romans 8:15, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Romans 5:8, Zephaniah 3:17, Ephesians 1:7, Psalm 103:12, Jeremiah 29:11, John 14:2–3, 1 Peter 1:18–19, Titus 2:14.The post Chris Griffiths: Who am I? first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.
Dave Frodsham continues our Foundations series by looking at why we need to be people of the Word and of the Spirit and what encouragement there is in the Bible. Key scriptures: John 3:8 The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit. Matthew 4:4. But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'” Matthew 22:29 But Jesus answered them, “You are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God. Psalm 63:1-8: O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me. Psalm 119:103–105 How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through your precepts (commandment) I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. John 7:37–39 On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.'” Now this he said about the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were to receive, for as yet the Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified .

In this message, Graham explores the rich truths found in 2 Corinthians 13:14, showing how one verse contains four foundational Christian doctrines: the Trinity, grace, the Father's love (which he connects with God's sovereign election), and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. Graham begins by explaining the doctrine of the Trinity—one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Although the word “Trinity” isn't found in the Bible, he shows how Scripture consistently reveals God's triune nature, pointing to passages such as Jesus' baptism, the Great Commission, and Genesis 1. He explains that Jesus is fully God and has existed eternally with the Father and the Holy Spirit. He then focuses on the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, emphasising that salvation and the Christian life are entirely based on God's undeserved favour rather than human effort. Reflecting on his own experience, Graham shares how he spent years trying to earn God's approval through religious performance before discovering the freedom of living under God's grace instead of legalism. Next, Graham explores the love of God the Father, teaching that God's love is rooted in His sovereign choice and eternal purpose. He discusses the biblical doctrines of election and predestination, explaining how he initially struggled with these teachings before becoming convinced that salvation belongs to God from beginning to end. He encourages believers to find deep assurance in knowing that nothing can separate them from God's love and that He faithfully keeps those He has called. Finally, Graham highlights the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, reminding Christians that the Spirit is not simply a doctrine but a personal companion who fills, strengthens, and empowers believers daily. He encourages continual dependence on the Holy Spirit, inviting God's presence afresh and cultivating a close friendship with Him. Throughout the message, Graham combines biblical teaching with personal testimony, encouraging Christians to rest in God's grace, trust His sovereign love, and live daily in the power and presence of the Holy Spirit. He concludes by inviting people to receive prayer and to seek a fresh filling of the Holy Spirit.The post Graham Webb: Four foundations in one verse first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.
Manny reminds us that salvation is God's gift, available today through Jesus Christ. Reflecting on Christ's incredible sacrifice, he explores what salvation truly means—deliverance, safety, and restoration—and challenges us not only to receive God's grace but to live it out every day. Drawing from passages including 2 Corinthians 6:2, Romans 13:11–12, and Jesus' parables of the hidden treasure and the talents, Manny encourages us to make Christ our greatest treasure, turn away from sin, carry our cross daily, and boldly share the good news with others. The message is a call to respond to God's love without delay, because now is the day of salvation. Key Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 6:2, Romans 13:11–12, Matthew 13:44, Matthew 25:14–30.

What happens when your prayers seem unanswered? How do you keep believing when the waiting feels long? Sylvia shares a powerful teaching from Luke 18, where Jesus tells the parable of the persistent widow. Through Scripture, personal testimony, and practical encouragement, Sylvia reminds us that prayer isn't a one-time event—it's a lifestyle of faith, persistence, and relationship with our Heavenly Father. Sylvia also shares personal stories of God's faithfulness, encouraging every believer to keep trusting, keep praying, and keep believing that God hears those who cry out to Him day and night. Don't give up. Keep praying. God is faithful.The post Sylvia Billington: Never give up praying first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.

Who is the true Greatest of All Time (G.O.A.T.)? While sports legends like Messi, Pelé, and Ronaldo eventually see their greatness fade with time and age, there is one person whose greatness remains consistent yesterday, today, and forever. In this preach, Dave Frodsham dives into Luke 9 to explore three critical questions that define our faith: – Who do the crowds say Jesus is? – Who does the Father say He is? – And most importantly – who do you say He is? There’s a big difference between simply knowing about Jesus and truly knowing Him personally – do you know Him today?The post Dave Frodsham: Who is the Greatest of All Time? first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.

Rick looks at 1 Corinthians 12:1–12 to explore what it means to live a naturally supernatural Christian life. Rick reminds us that hearing from God and moving in the gifts of the Holy Spirit isn't just for a select few – it is supposed to be part of the everyday DNA of the church. Rick talks about: Grace Gifts (Charismata): Spiritual gifts aren’t earned by being a Christian for decades. They are free, grace-filled gifts from God given to build up and encourage the church community. Pursue, Don’t Just Be Open: Rick challenges us to move from simply being “open” to the gifts to actively and eagerly desiring them, just as scripture commands. The Purpose is Edification: Whether it’s words of wisdom, prophecy, hospitality, or tongues, the primary goal is always to strengthen, comfort, and build up others in love. Testing Prophecy: Because we “know in part,” Rick emphasises the importance of sharing and receiving prophetic words with humility, always weighing them against scripture. A Word of Encouragement: Toward the end of the message, Rick shares a specific word for anyone who has been held back by fear from past experiences with the occult or secular spirituality: God has broken that fear. Your future is secure in His hands, and His plans for you are to prosper you, not to harm you.The post Rick Robertson: One spirit, many gifts first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.
Dave looks at Ephesians 2 and Acts 2 to explore the fundamental foundations of the Christian faith. Using a practical illustration involving loose gravel and a shed base, he explains how Christians are designed to be built together to withstand the pressures of life. The Personal Foundation (Acts 2): Dave breaks down the four essential elements of a Christian's personal foundation: Repentance (turning away from sin), Faith (trusting in Jesus), Water Baptism (the outward symbol of a changed life), and Holy Spirit Baptism (the power needed to live out our faith). What We Once Were (Ephesians 2:11-12): It is vital to remember where we came from so we remain humble. Without Christ, humanity was spiritually dead, hopeless, and completely alienated from God. What Christ Has Done (Ephesians 2:13-16): Through His blood on the cross, Jesus paid our debt and brought us near to God. He fulfilled the law and tore down the “walls of hostility” that divide people, establishing true peace. What We Are Now (Ephesians 2:19): When we trust in Jesus, our old life is history. We are no longer strangers or outsiders; we are citizens of God’s kingdom, built together as a diverse, unified church. Like individual pebbles locked into a foundation grid, we are made stronger together. The post Dave Frodsham: Strong Foundations first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.
EPISODE DESCRIPTION I sat down with Brian Gerrard, founder of PaySlice, who spent seven years living across Latin America before building one of the most human-centered fintech startups I have come across. Brian started by connecting friends in emerging markets with remote jobs, then realized they were losing massive chunks of their income to inflation and bad exchange rates. That led him to build PaySlice , a platform that lets workers access their earned wages daily and get paid in stablecoins instead of a depreciating local currency. We talk about how he grew to nearly 10,000 users mostly through word of mouth, why he chose payroll over remittances, how he is embedding PaySlice into gaming and credit apps with zero customer acquisition cost, and where he sees this going as one point two billion people receive a paycheck every month. This is a real conversation about real problems, real traction, and what it actually takes to build something that matters.

Dan Thomas and John Gallagher are back with another Time Team pod, this time looking back at the 2006 FA Cup Final, which took place 20 years ago this month. The lads look back at the season as a whole, the main characters, the storylines and the road to Cardiff that led to one of the most iconic individual performances in club history.
Para celebrar los 25 años del triunfo del Liverpool ante el Deportivo Alavés por 5 a 4, en la final de la Copa de la UEFA de la temporada 2000/2001, rememoramos lo que fue el camino a esa final del 16 de mayo del 2001, analizamos en detalle la propia partido, que ya ha pasado a la historia por ser una de las mejores finales que se recuerdan (5-4 con gol de oro en la prórroga) y, además, contamos con protagonistas que vivieron el encuentro en el Westfalenstadion de Dortmund: Como futbolista Javi Moreno, que desde el césped anotó dos goles para el sorprendente equipo vitoriano y, como aficionado, Aritz Moreno que lo disfrutó y sufrió por partes iguales desde la grada. Este título europeo se conviertió en la tercera (y hasta ahora última) UEFA del club red y, también, cerró una temporada histórica para los Gérard Houllier, Gerrard, Fowler, Owen, Heskey, Carragher o Gary McAllister que lograron, junto a la FA Cup y la Copa de la Liga, levantar un triplete sin precedentes.

Barcelona clinch La Liga against Real Madrid as The NN Pod looks at the growing instability inside Madrid, the pressure surrounding Xabi Alonso, and why Europe's biggest clubs increasingly resemble vanity projects rather than coherent football teams.The lads discuss Real Madrid's dressing room issues, Jude Bellingham scrutiny, Vinícius Júnior tensions, and the possibility of José Mourinho returning to the Bernabéu. There's also praise for Hansi Flick's Barcelona, the emergence of Lamine Yamal, and discussion around whether finishing second in a “two-team league” can ever be viewed as success.Elsewhere, Sergio Ramos edges closer to buying Sevilla, prompting debate around ex-players owning football clubs, modern ownership structures, and whether football intelligence translates into boardroom leadership.The conversation then shifts into a wider look at European football's competitive imbalance. PSG, Bayern Munich and Inter dominate their domestic leagues again, leading into a broader discussion around Premier League financial power, TV distribution, squad rotation advantages, and why English clubs continue overpowering Europa League and Conference League opposition.There's also debate around player awards after Ousmane Dembélé's Ligue 1 recognition and Bruno Fernandes winning Player of the Year despite Manchester United's struggles.Later in the episode, Chelsea's latest managerial search takes centre stage as Xabi Alonso becomes linked with Stamford Bridge following his difficult spell at Real Madrid. The lads discuss whether Chelsea remains a career opportunity or simply a high-paying trap for elite coaches.Finally, Southampton are caught in a bizarre Championship “Spygate” controversy after allegedly sending a staff member to watch Middlesbrough training hidden in the bushes ahead of the play-offs.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables & Intro(00:18) - Week in Football Introduction & European Football Overview(01:00) - WATG: Matchweek 36 Roundup(02:21) - Barcelona Clinch La Liga & Real Madrid Turmoil(05:08) - Fede Valverde, Mourinho & Madrid Dressing Room Debate(08:00) - Galácticos Discussion & Real Madrid Team Structure(08:53) - Barcelona Praise, Hansi Flick & Lamine Yamal Discussion(10:17) - Sergio Ramos Buying Sevilla(14:44) - Dembele Award Debate & European League Dominance(16:57) - Premier League Financial Strength vs Europe(21:15) - Europa League, Conference League & English Dominance(24:48) - PSG Advantage, Squad Rotation & Competitive Balance(28:36) - Bruno Fernandes Award Debate & Footballer of the Year Discussion(32:27) - Chelsea Managerial Chaos & Xabi Alonso Links(36:18) - Alonso, Gerrard & The Risks of Reputation Damage(39:11) - Southampton Spygate & Championship Play-Off Discussion(42:24) - Outro

FROM THE VAULT: In this clip from last year's Liverpool Legends episode, Steven Gerrard joins the lads to reflect on the realities of life at the very top with Liverpool—and what it truly cost him.The Liverpool icon opens up on the relentless pressure of representing his boyhood club, admitting he may not have fully appreciated his career in the moment due to the intensity and expectations that came with it. Gerrard also shares how stepping away from management has allowed him to rediscover normal life, from spending time with family to simply enjoying the freedom he rarely had during his playing days.He looks back on the unforgettable highs—including his Anfield debut and iconic moments like Istanbul—while also revealing the mental toll of living and breathing football in a city where “everything is red.” Gerrard also discusses leadership, setting standards at Liverpool, and the responsibility he felt as captain to uphold the club's elite mentality.With this year's Liverpool Legends episode just around the corner, this is a perfect chance to revisit one of the game's greatest midfielders in a rare, honest reflection on career, pressure, and life after football.If you like this clip, you can catch the full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKAuoKEjYhc ChumbawambaFor more Peter Crouch: Twitter - https://twitter.com/petercrouch Therapy Crouch - https://www.youtube.com/@thetherapycrouch For more Chris Stark Twitter - https://twitter.com/Chris_StarkInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/chrisstark/For more Steve Sidwell Twitter - https://twitter.com/sjsidwell Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/stevesidwell14 #PeterCrouch #ThatPeterCrouchPodcast Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of My Music, Graham Coath sits down with London-born singer-songwriter Col Gerrard for a conversation that moves well beyond the usual music interview.Col's approach to music is grounded in something increasingly rare—classic songwriting, emotional honesty, and a deep respect for real musicianship. Influenced by soul, classic pop and timeless artists, his work reflects a life shaped by movement, experience, and reflection. The discussion weaves through the making of his self-titled debut album—an introspective twelve-track record that explores the complexity of relationships, miscommunication, longing, and the quiet weight that love can leave behind. As Col shares, these songs were written in hindsight—an attempt to make sense of moments that didn't fully land at the time.Recorded across iconic London studios including Abbey Road Studios, Metropolis Studios and Kore, the album was produced by Grammy-nominated Chris Potter (known for work with The Rolling Stones, U2 and The Verve). Together, they've created a piano-led, emotionally charged sound—blending soulful vocals, organic instrumentation, driving guitars and a subtle sense of nostalgia that feels both cinematic and accessible.Alongside the album, Graham and Col explore:Why true musicianship still matters in a world of AI and samplingThe irreplaceable energy of live performance and imperfectionThe tension between technology and human expressionHow songwriting often reveals meaning long after the moment has passedThere's also a strong thread throughout the episode about creative identity—why artists shouldn't feel boxed in, and how the best music often comes from allowing space for instinct, experimentation and even the unexpected.Having recently toured with Boyzlife and building momentum following radio support and a sold-out Camden headline show, Col Gerrard is carving out a space that feels both grounded and quietly confident.At its core, this episode is about rediscovering the human side of music—where feeling, craft and lived experience still lead the way.

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is rapidly expanding into the textile industry, but how will it actually work in practice, and how can brands prepare?In this episode of HappyPorch Radio, Barry O'Kane speaks with Gerrard Fisher, co-founder of WEFT, a company helping brands understand the circularity of their products and prepare for future EPR systems.Gerrard explains how eco-modulation could link the design of products directly to the costs of dealing with them at the end of life. By analysing product data, brands can begin to see which materials, designs and product categories are easier to recycle and which could create higher costs in future circular systems.They also explore the broader opportunity of using this data not just to manage regulation, but to help guide product design, improve recycling infrastructure planning, and give consumers clearer information about sustainability.✨ In this episode:Gerrard explains how Extended Producer Responsibility works and why it's becoming a major issue for textilesWe explore eco-modulation and how it could financially reward products that are easier to recycle or more durable.Gerrard shares consumer research suggesting shoppers are surprisingly open to small EPR charges on clothing.We discuss how product data can help brands map the circularity of their portfolios and make better design decisions.Barry and Gerrard explore how WEFT prototyped its product using AI coding tools before building a more robust system.We discuss the importance of aligning incentives across policy, business and consumer behaviour to make circular systems work.

Another massive weekend in the Premier League
It's that time of year! #FANuary! Where we don't pick the movie, the listeners do! For our second iteration of #FANuary, we have a great one for you: 1985's AVENGNING ANGEL, the sequel to 1984's ANGEL, one of the biggest hits of the second New World regime. But while director Robert Vincent O'Neil returns, not everyone does, which is why Betsy Russell (OUT OF CONTROL) takes over in the titular role as the high school student by day and hooker by night. Only this time, Angel is just a student, a law student! But when she loses someone close to her, she has to hits the streets again as Angel. Or does she? We'll talk through the decision and whether it was necessary. This is only our second ANGEL movie, following ANGEL III: THE FINAL CHAPTER, because we are going in reverse order in this franchise. But do we all remember ANGEL III? Regardless, it was hard to remember Susan Tyrell and Rory Calhoun, returning ro their roles from the first ANGEL, but who were sadly missing from the third.We also discuss the legal weapons Angel claims are at her disposal, the ineptitude of the Gerrard family and the movie's shifting tone, and the film's wild ending in the Bradbury Building. And yes, we'll discuss the baby. Don't miss out as we venture futher into the ANGEL franchise!For all the shows in Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network, head here: https://www.someonesfavoriteproductions.com/.

This week we have Jonjo Shelvey in the hot seat, a man with one of the best talents we have ever seen in matching football players up to what boots they wore.

At Newcastle we hear stories of fights, Rafa stealing prawns of plates and what Mike Ashley was really like.

Available 3rd January to subscribers. Episode will be free to play 10th JanuaryMy guest for Episode 2 is an Australian Paralympian, having represented his country as a runner at three Paralympic Games, before transitioning to triathlon in 2022 at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham… being totally blind from birth, he is an extraordinary athlete who has not only climbed Mt Everest to 8,300m, has competed on Dancing with the Stars, and has now taken to marathon swimming. In 2025 he completed the 48km 20 Bridges Round Manhattan swim in 9 hours and 8 minutes and later that same year he wanted to become the first totally blind person to complete the English Channel, having attempted it in 2024… this is the extraordinary (I say that a lot in this episode) Gerrard Gosens.
He's one of the most recognisable faces in the UK for his work on - and off - the pitch. A prolific goalscorer for England turned host of the BBC's iconic Match of the Day TV programme. Now embarking on a new chapter with his hugely-popular The Rest is Football podcast, Gary Lineker sits down with John Obi Mikel and Chris McHardy to reminisce. And there's plenty on the agenda. From his fallout with Johan Cruyff to his close bond with Terry Venables, and from the embarrassment of shitting himself at Italia ‘90 to the heartbreak of losing a World Cup semi-final. And there's questions. What hurt more? Defeat to Diego Maradona's Argentina in ‘86 or that loss to Germany in ‘90? Who is better - Scholes, Gerrard and Lampard? And why is Cristiano Ronaldo not on Lionel Messi or Maradona's level. He also speaks powerfully about his son's childhood leukaemia battle, how it changed his outlook on life, and why being able to look himself in the mirror matters more than any headline.
