Brett & Joe deliver excellent football conversation.
2 guys who think they know ball just blabbering into a mic
Curious to see if punching a guy on the field is still so immature and laughable after Brett sees the video that Amon Ra punched first lol. All jokes love the show guys!
But it’s way more. I’ve been looking for a good podcast where I can actually learn more about the game. I think it’s this one. Awesome stuff.
Brett - I was excited to check out Sleep Token having just gotten into metalcore with the likes of Spiritbox, Amity Affliction, Jinjer...

💜 the passion though man 💪🏻
