  • Potty about Stoke

    All things Stoke City but still with a smile, never a Pod to through the whole team under a Potteries motor traction bus even if often it feels like they deserve it. Great content, insights.. as comforting as the classic North Staffs Oatcake. Congratulations to Dan & Michael and their guests. Part of the match-day experience for me.

  • Deserves more attention!

    It’s not always easy to plough through all the multitude of sports podcasts to find something that really piques interest. This is one of those rare gems. Designed for and hosted by Stoke City supporters, with great insight and guest appearances.

    Should be on the “must listen” list for every Potter fan. The sheer volume of episodes is testament to the hard work and tireless efforts of the two hosts.

    Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Really good podcast. The best Stoke pod by far. Only criticism is, please stop saying “ If you like” after nearly every sentence!

  • A rather splendid Stokie podcast

    ‘Every step’ is essential listening for any Stoke City (or opposition) fan.

    The presenters are natural, knowledgable, modest and fun. The ‘magazine’ format works perfectly. They have great guests to bring variety - I particularly like the previews and after match comments of the other teams’ fans. If you call yourself a Stoke fan then you must listen to this podcast. Well done lads!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Extra Time: Stoke Monday Night Spaces 23/2/26
Q: Is it just the injuries that have stopped our season?
To be honest, I do think it is just the injuries that have had a massive burden on this season, especially considering key players are out.
Extra Time: Stoke Monday Night Spaces 23/2/26
Q: Do we continue with Mark Robins despite the current form?
Yeah, you've got to stick with Robins now. I still believe that this has been one of the better seasons we've had so far since relegation.
Extra Time: Stoke Monday Night Spaces 23/2/26
Q: Would you do anything different?
I'd get us covering every position across the park, if I'm honest with you. I feel like we're very short in every single position that we've currently got in this squad.
Who's The New Lad: Jesurun Rak-Sakyi(Jimmy Smith-Blades Ramble)
Q: How do you think Rak-Sakyi will fit in with the current squad?
It will depend on his work rate; if he doesn't adapt to the manager's expectations, he may not start.
Who's The New Lad: Jesurun Rak-Sakyi(Jimmy Smith-Blades Ramble)
Q: What can we expect from Jesurun Rak-Sakyi?
He is a right winger known for his directness and ability to score, but he may lack defensive contributions.
