🎙️ Welcome to The Socially Distant Sports Bar – Episode 253
Elis James (Elis & John, Oh What A Time), Mike Bubbins (Mammoth), and Steff Garrero are back with another round of sporting nonsense, wild tangents, and clips that will leave you questioning reality. This week, we’ve got boxing legends, rugby icons, and a brutal cricketing demolition – plus, of course, the usual barely-researched takes and questionable wisdom.
"Like a sports podcast, if the sport was optional."
✨ What’s on This Week’s Episode?
- Bernard Hopkins vs. Buncey – Elis brings us an absolute classic in boxing trash talk.
- The legend of Dennis Bree – Mike introduces us to a man who plays rugby with his grandson.
- England getting absolutely battered – Steff choses Australia dismantling their old rivals.
- Plus: Jason Robinson magic, Tom Brady’s non-involvement in the worst documentary of all time, and a look at Lauren Price vs. Natasha Jonas.
