  • Not bad for a Leeds pod

    Hull City fan here with a begrudging respect for Leeds. Dan, Michael, Chris and Dean seem like a great brunch of lads. The sort you’d go for a pint with after a game even if your team lost to Leeds. Propaganda is the best segment of the show and across all of football fan pod culture IMHO. Need more of it this season please! Congrats gents and COYH!

  • Original…

    there are probably similar club pods out there but obviously I’d never hear them, but the balance, fun and fan obsessive clarity (but never mean) feels special to me. Been listening since before the more recent professionalism and it’s good to see em get better and better

  • In good or bad times…

    This is the only podcast for echoing my feelings as a long time Leeds fan. The pain and the joy, always funny and with a good selection of guests. I loved the Howard Wilkinson interview. What works is the interaction between the presenters, feels like a really good post match chat with Leeds loving mates.

Run it back to 2003! | Aidy White
Q: Did it surprise either of you to see us being so aggressive and so front foot?
Yes, it was a surprise because the initial moments of the game caused some panic, but Leeds quickly turned it around and demonstrated strong performance.
