  • Getting better by the episode

    I’m really starting to enjoy Scott’s pods. His balance is great, expectations levelled, and the never too high, never too low mantra is a refreshing change from some of the more negative and critical pods. Well worth adding to your library!

I would put Carlos Belaber as the number one priority, followed by Elliot Anderson at number two, Joe Gomez at number three, and Adam Wharton at four due to concerns over physicality and cost.
