So smooth. James Marshall is a master conversationalist. Nobody better. He somehow seduces hard rugby men into revealing funny anecdotes and personal insights that no other podcaster gets. It’s magic every time out.

This is one of my favourite poddies. The banter and humour is off the charts.
I love the humanisation that he gives to the guys we see on the field from day to day.
It allows them, and us, to relate to the fact that they are just lads, on a bigger stage!
Keep it up Jimmy Ma. Love your work bro
