  • Much Needed Pod for an International Saints Member

    These guys produce a quality pod and post/pre match analysis every week with great guests too. As an English St Kilda supporter this provides a great source of insight into the team and the game itself that is isn’t readily available elsewhere. Give it a listen and Go Saints!

  • Saints Connection

    Long time listener, first time commenter.

    After living interstate for the past 10 years, this podcast has been my best connection to our mighty Saints.

    In a media landscape that loves to simp over Essendon, Geelong and Carlton, Unpluggered gives us a voice among the noise.

    Thanks for always fronting up and flying the flag for the red, white and black.
